May 16, 200422 yr Penny/Gonzo for Michael Young/Cordero. We'd finally have a SS that could hit and another good bullpen pitcher. I doubt Texas would be interested, but it would be worth a shot once AJ is back if we are still in contention. We could probably get Soriano from Texas for some of our pitching, but I'm guessing he is too expensive for us and I don't know if either him or Castillo cold play SS.
May 16, 200422 yr We can't really afford to lose our best pitcher right now and our best defensive player...pitching is all we have.... I think what we really need to make a run at is some bullpen....If you think about it the offense will eventually come together, Castillo has just not been playing his game. I think that if we made any trades for offense, the position would be catcher...and the obvious answer is Kendall. We really need him...
May 16, 200422 yr if you posted this 1 month ago I would have jumped for it but not anymore... Penny is coming into his own and I want him in Teal
May 16, 200422 yr We cant give away one of our good pitchers...Penny is pitching very good. He is really helping out the team now. We cant get rid of him...especially now when he is doing very good. I dont want to trade any of our starting pitchers except for DO who I REALLY want to trade.
May 16, 200422 yr Penny...i dont think so. Without Penny we are not the same. Penny has been our best pitcher so far this season. Imagine losing penny and then no relief pitching after. No Penny=8 Runs in one inning
May 16, 200422 yr Penny is on the not gonna be traded this year list. Along with... Lowell, Pierre, Cabs, Conine, Choi, Castillo, Redmond, Pavano, Beckett, Burnett, Benitez, Willis, Fox, Spooneybarger, Borland, Easley, Perisho, and Mordecai. I wouldn't be suprised/sad to see anyone esle go
May 16, 200422 yr id trade Nunez for a relif pitcher I'd rather trade Cordero for relief pitching and let Conine platoon 1B when needed.
May 16, 200422 yr id trade Nunez for a relif pitcher I'd rather trade Cordero for relief pitching and let Conine platoon 1B when needed. I second that. but not like we could get much for cordero
May 16, 200422 yr id trade Nunez for a relif pitcher I'd rather trade Cordero for relief pitching and let Conine platoon 1B when needed. I happen to agree. The Marlins tried to showcase Cordero (and Easley) but unforunately Cordero didn't show enough to establish a decent trade value (to put it nicely). When trade time comes around, I believe, absent a blockbuster trade that fundamentally changes the makeup of the team, you'll see more of what was seen last season - trading prospects for 1/2 season MLB talent. As for Nunez, I've come to the conclusion that the Marlins have decided not to trade him, at least not now. His trade value is low, his ability to play all three OF positions combined with his speed and decent bat may prove invaluable as they make other moves. For an economically constrained team like the Fish, roster management is the key to their financial viability now and in the future, and at least for this season, Nunez will stay put, even if that means jettisoning a Lenny Harris.

I wouldn't want to see them trade Nunez either. He is our only reserve CFer. He is certainly an upgrade over Banks......

There is no way Texas would move Young. I think they would move Soriano before they moved him.
