That's okay. I don't think the Marlins would trade arguably the NL's best pitcher for a 12 million dollar singles hitter.

Well, it's worked perfectly twice in the franchise's 12(?) years. Hard to argue with that success rate. I'm pretty sure the Yankees are the only other franchise that could say they've averaged a World Series title for every 6 years of existence.

I would trade Lester and Papelbon for Willis, but those 2 plus Pedoria and Ellsbury is to much to ask for any player.. Papelbon's value is rising daily and we would be giving up all of our cheap major league ready talent in one deal.. I just don't think this is the Red Sox style anymore..

Oh, okay. I don't know anything about Pedoria and Ellsbury, but assuming those 4 represent the 4 best prospects Boston has, then that might be a bit much. As I said, I'd give up Milledge and Pelfrey, the Mets' two best prospects, and both are probably top 50 prospects. Similarly, Papelbon and Lester are both top 50 prospects. A pair of top 50 prospects should be sufficient compensation for Willis. Maybe a B-grade prospect tossed in as a sweetener.

edit:Baseball prospective? had Pedoria rated as our highest prospect #11.. I agree 2 high-level prospects and other 3 star guy should get the job done, unless some kind of bidding war breaks out which could very well happen for a player of Willis's stature.

Papelbon is no longer a preospect. He;s a bona fide Major leaguer.

In all reality, adding Willis would be overkill, IMO.. 3 number one pitchers in one rotation??
Yea, well on the other hand, that does sound pretty damn good. Maybe the Marlins would take Clement straight up.

I know it sounds bad giving up our 2 best pitching prospects but you don't get chances to trade for guys like Dontrelle ever really.. 24 years old, 46-27 record for a crappy team, 3.25 career era, avg's over 30 starts a year, hasn't been hurt yet, and he is able to throw tons of innings.. This is the short list..
