January 12, 200521 yr 1) When does he become a free agent? 2)We could trade AJ+Enc/Propects for him? Discuss.
January 12, 200521 yr You can't trade for young cheap very good pitching from any team unless you throw in the farm. No team is that stupid or desperate.
January 12, 200521 yr I'd love to get him, but it would be basically impossible. Milwaukee would be stupid to get rid of him.
January 12, 200521 yr Im not just throwing my Red Sox B.S in here, but it is widely thought that Theo has been obsessing over getting a decent cap for next year and going after Sheets hard to replace Schilling. Just my .02
January 13, 200521 yr I thought he was a FA after this season but could be wrong and no we will not get him.
January 13, 200521 yr 1) When does he become a free agent? 2)We could trade AJ+Enc/Propects for him? Discuss. 654322[/snapback] AJ, Enc, AND prospects!?!?! While he's definitely awesome, he's no Randy Johnson. A trade with AJ straight up for Ben Sheets is more than sufficient, and even then the trade is still favored in the way of the Brew crew. We could just throw ENC in there to dump his salary, but he's certainly not needed to make a trade like this to go through.
January 13, 200521 yr i'm still betting on the brew crew signing him long term 654607[/snapback] Backloaded maybe.
January 13, 200521 yr I would rather have Burnett over Sheets any day. Although Sheets gets the strikeouts Burnett has a much better upside. He is coming off some injury prone seasons and yet to explode. He was starting to become into his own at the end of the 2004 season.
January 13, 200521 yr I'm not so sure which AJ Burnett you guys are talking about, but Sheets' value has got to be HIGHER than just AJ because Sheets has actually stayed on the field. Potential is great... but you guys are definitely overvaluing it.
January 14, 200521 yr Milwaukee would be crazy to let him go, the guy is a stud. I would love to have him on the Marlins but it just wont happen. But i think we are fine with Burnett.
