Trade Rumors

[Jeffy25]

But we could either resign him, or get 2 more top picks. Chances r, we would keep him, moz would never do it, I doubt I would either, but I would consider

You're only getting hm for a year and 2 months though.

I'd laugh my ass off if he resigned with Toronto.

[Jeffy25]

That has happened, traded at the deadline, then resigned w old team, can't think of any specifics

That would be awesome. Its the classiest thing you can do for an organisation, allow the team to bring some talent in for you, and then go back and resign. Kieth Tkachuk and Bill Guerin have both done it with the Blues I think.

The Jays would come out great on that. They would net 4 prospects on that (5 from Cards - 1 from losing pick) for renting Halladay for 1.5 years.

Rickey Henderson. Traded to the Blue Jays in 1993 midseason, resigned with Oakland after the season.

those were the good ol days, even though we sucked with Ruben "I swing at everything" Sierra.

Rockies pursuing Freddy Sanchez.

Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.

Clint Barmes and Sanchez have similar OPS' and XBH and the one thing the Rockies don't need is another bat. Barmes has been decent this season batting near .300 and while Sanchez would be sort of an upgrade the Pirates like Eric Young, Jr. who has been running wild in the minors. It'd be a lot to give up for similar production.

No thanks.

Wallace, todd, jay, kozma, and possibly miller, for an almost gaurenteed 20 game winner for our team would be well worth it. The only one I would be partial to is wallace, he seems to be a solid 300 hitter when he gets to the majors.

what do you do though when the Blue Jays say they want Rasmus in any deal?

I for one think someone should overpay for Halladay though, specifically in the NL. There are a ton of teams he'd make instantly a contender. In the AL...i really don't see either the Sawx or the Yanks going for him. Maybe Texas? I think if he goes anywhere its to the NL.

[HoustonGM]

I'd love to see Halladay in the NL. He'd carve it up more than Sabathia did last year.

[OregonDuck1989]

I see him going to the NL for the mere reason Riccardi never wants to see him.

In the division is out of the question no matter the depth of the Sox and Yanks farm system. I also think the Sox and Yanks are happy with their rotations.

Phillies are big contenders...but to be honest, I don't see it happening...

[Jeffy25]

i honestly don't see him being traded....and i also believe Wallace, Rasmus, Pujols, Molina, and Wainer are our untoucables...but for a player like Halladay, maybe one of those, not multiple players, but maybe one of those could be removed.....i would think Wallace would be the easist to aquire, maybe wainwright

I don't think you really have the right to say any prospect and just about any major leaguer is untouchable when you're dealing for the best pitcher in baseball.

this is very true. If I was Moz i would aggressively shop this solution. However, offense is the major need for the Cardinals.
