Trading for a SP

MLBTR has a post up about the SP market...

http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2008/07/the-starting-pi.html#comments

So, who on the list would you want the Rangers to go for?  Some rental?  Someone locked up for a bit?

Me...I would go for someone locked up (as probably most people here).  I like Greinke, Oswalt, Reyes, Burnett (if you can buy out his opt-out), Bailey, and Arroyo (from that list).

I wouldn't trade a huge haul for any of these excetp Greinke....

Stay away for now...

Play the year out unless you can get someone at a real bargain, and see what you can do this winter…

I would try and get

burnett. I have a feeling he could be had cheaper than you think. Plus if he opts out, you collect the draft picks.

I'm sorry my parents never had me sarcamsized.

thats the one guy I would

think about. I think you could get him cheaper than you think.

If you were given a window

to negotiate an extension that would forgo his buyout clause, I’d say make an offer.

ya why not make an offer.

no matter who we have offensivley they always hit so why not get burnett. just offer a couple of hitting prospects

Kinsler is the best player on the rangers(done), BENOIT SUCKS(done), bring up Harrison(done),new: Put Nippert in rotation, Mendoza to the pen, get Feliz to AAA by the end of the year, trade cat

How about

arias, gold, and another player… oh wait I changed my sig, damn.

I'm sorry my parents never had me sarcamsized.

What about Fuentes...

Always liked that guy and you get a couple draft picks if he leaves in the offseason…would definitely make the bullpen legit IMO having 4 solid setup/closer guys (Fuentes, Wilson, Guardado, Francisco). I hear they’re asking a lot though.

they are asking a ton

I want no part of that bidding war.

I'm sorry my parents never had me sarcamsized.
