The one trade i am interested in learning more about is:

How realistic is it that Matt Holiday could become a Cardinal this year?

After the DeRosa deal, is there a chance for this deal?

I am ok with moving Ludwick, even though he is arby available for another 2 years, and that Holiday will be unristricted after this year. I am ok with moving Luddy and a Motte like player for Holiday....but I don't know what Beane can expect to get.

I have heard they want Wallace, Moz better not!

I could see Holliday in a few places. Does anyone think San Fran could make a move? The team is in position to win and could try for him on loan.

He'll be a Yankee or in Boston by 2010 though.

Brewers are going to trade Jeff Suppan & 3 high fives for Holliday, sorry Jeffy

[Jeffy25]

I don't see him in New York or Boston next year. i think he'll end up in the national league one, and two...i think it depends on who trades for him...a team like STL will resign him, the Brewers (for example) wouldn't

[etothep]

It also depends if he wants to play for a division champ like the Brewers will be, as opposed to the Cards

[OregonDuck1989]

I think the Yankees will make a play for him. I mean how huge would that lineup be with Holliday instead of Damon. And with Lowell's hip being a problem I could see the Red Sox making some moves and maybe bringing Holliday in. DHing Drew.

I highly doubt Ludwick would be involved in a deal for Holliday. That would make no sense from Oakland's standpoint.

There's a National League team in New York, buddy

He wants to play for a good team.

from Billy Beane's perspective....he plays for peanuts in comparision...and numberswise...isn't that much worse...and you can have him under control for another two years

You don't trade a 29 year old free agent to be with 3 excellent seasons under his belt, in the midst of another quality season for a 31 year old with one good season in his career. If trading Holliday, the A's need to improve their FUTURE, and a 31 year old outfielder with 1 good season so far does not do that.

well Beane's trade for Holiday didn't make sense at the time either....but that is the deal i had been hearing...

[OregonDuck1989]

The Rockies are rumored to be discussing Huston Street in trades.

**** you Dan O'Dowd. **** you.

[HoustonGM]

well Beane's trade for Holiday didn't make sense at the time either....

Yes, it did, because he was aiming on contending in a weak division.

but that is the deal i had been hearing...

From where? It's likely wild hopeful speculation from Cardinals fans. Just like when metsguy told me that the Mets should trade Oliver Perez for Matt Holliday.
