Possum
I'M AMAZIN', YEA, IM ALL THAT!!
Going to try and make it to the game tomorrow.
If we can somehow pick up another quality starter for the back end of our rotation, this team has potential. Hanley is finally showing signs of heating up. It scares me though knowing that javy and volstad are going to start 40% of our games. One fresh face for the back side of the rotation will bring the confidence level up though.
No kidding. I like where our team is headed, but it's a shame because we're so used to having that loaded farm system, which is definitely not the case this year. I have no doubt that we will go after somebody, but how good will that guy be since we don't have top prospects anymore.Sucks we don't have a guy like Dave Duncan who can dump a superstar like Adam Wainwright on the DL and then get career years out of guys like Kyle McCellan, Kyle Loshe, etc.

I'm eyeballing somebody like Jeff Francis from the Royals. He would be a solid #4, and a lefty, which we need. Another option would be somebody like Pavano. We would have to open the wallet for him though. If memory serves me right, I think he is owed something like 20 mil over the next two yrs. That isnt counting this yr's salary.I'm trying to think of who from the American League would be available at the trade deadline now...
