June 20, 200422 yr Wilson is a guy the Pirates are trying to build around. next. Yea seriously Why would they trade him? Its not like hes expensive and they need to move payroll Use the force dude get that troll s*** out of here its not funny its lame and retarded
June 20, 200422 yr Finley and Beltran will not be the chosen ones....only Craig Wilson is. stop spamming
June 20, 200422 yr Also, speaking of Finley. This being the last year of his contract he can do something similar to what Sidney Ponson did last year. The Diamondbacks can trade him to get prospects, and then he can sign a contract with D-Backs in the offseason to come back. All players want to play on winning teams, and I'm sure if he can help out the D-Backs and still be able to play for them next year I'm sure he would do it. That is if he even plays next year. isnt finley a 10/5 guy. and its not like he is chasing a ring. yeah I'm sure he wants to be there while they bring up all their young guys from the minors and a lot of his buddies are being traded away. Hey if the guy doesn't want to be on a winning team than I don't want him, but most players want to play on winning teams.

SD is his next stop if I was a betting man.

June 20, 200422 yr I said it before and I'll say it again, the answer is... ERIC BYRNES! .300 AVG, good speed, kills lefties, walks, doesn't K alot, minimal pop, and he's a clubhouse guy. Oakland could use some infield help so we ship off Easley along with Nunez and Oliver and it's all good. Line-Up: JP Louie Cabs/Lowell Lowell/Cabs Choi Vs Lefty/Conine Vs Righty Gonzo Redmond/Treanor Byrnes Pitcher He's cheap too. Do it Beinfest.
June 20, 200422 yr What i dont get is... if you are going to go after finley....why not just try and get Beltran instead? Finley won't ravage our farm system like Beltran. is that right? how do you know that? Did the d-backs tell you? It's real simple. Steve Finley- Age 39 Carlos Beltran- Age 27 Finley can still be very productive but is at the tail end of his career. Beltran is in the prime of his career. Now tell me which player has more value.

June 20, 200422 yr Finley and Beltran aren't realistic. I still say Craig Wilson, but what about Ichiro?
June 20, 200422 yr we ship off Easley along with Nunez and Oliver and it's all good. . :plain Quiet! We'll give them the BP help they need, a back-up OF replacement, and the 2B they need. Maybe a prospect to replace Easley or maybe Wil Cordero. Not the best proposal but it works for us! :lol
June 20, 200422 yr Finley and Beltran aren't realistic. I still say Craig Wilson, but what about Ichiro? Yeah the Nintendo folks are going to trade Ichiro, right... and Finley is way more realistic than Wilson.

You are telling me we are going to trade for some unproven OFer that is having his first decent season, give away a prospect, AND bat him 8th to solve our problems... and hell, just toss oakland our bench....give them everyone we dont use on a regular basis...im sure they could find use for DO hmmm.... NO

June 20, 200422 yr Finley and Beltran aren't realistic. I still say Craig Wilson, but what about Ichiro? shup with Craig Wilson, he is the Pirates future, get that thru your head dont think the Mariners want to give up Ichiro and everything he brings them

He's not starting. ESPN scouting report says he's more of a bench guy because they want to build around Kielty, Dye, and Kotsay.

With his recent performence in the Bullpen, he has some value. If he continues to pitch decent until mid-July some teams you want him.
June 20, 200422 yr well wouldnt the A's take on salary in that little deal of yours? the A's do anything but take on salary and Byrnes is a decent OBP guy, Beane wouldnt let him leave
