July 7, 200521 yr Day just pitched his 2nd rehab start in AA ball. think the Enc for Day trade should be back on at this point, especially with Beckett's new issues?
July 7, 200521 yr Absolutely not. I can't imagine a scenario inwhich we either trade dirrectly, or through a third team, that in the end we help the Nationals.
July 7, 200521 yr Enc is having a very good year in a park that is unkind towards hitters. However, he's not in our future plans at RF with Hermida banging on the door and potentially ready right now. Still, it's a tricky situation. He's producing great numbers in the thick of the wild card race. And on the flip he most likely won't be with us next season while moving him could net us a cheaper piece (Day?) of our 2006 team, while helping us immediately. Another negative to trading Enc is that 9ner hasn't done anything to reveal that he's anything more than a spot-starting pinch-hitter. And, well, Willingham probably won't get a shot. Tough call. I'd trade him.
July 7, 200521 yr And, well, Willingham probably won't get a shot. 844387[/snapback] He's hurt anyway.
July 7, 200521 yr I say we either re-sign encarnacion, or trade him for a piece that can help us in 2006.
July 7, 200521 yr I say we either re-sign encarnacion, or trade him for a piece that can help us in 2006. 844412[/snapback] 06????? What about now...that is what we have to worry about 06 will be after this year's playoffs...not now!!!
July 7, 200521 yr Author I say we either re-sign encarnacion, or trade him for a piece that can help us in 2006. 844412[/snapback] Zach Day could help us in 2005 and 2006 and 2007....he's got 3 more years before he's a free agent.
July 7, 200521 yr And, well, Willingham probably won't get a shot. 844387[/snapback] He's hurt anyway. 844388[/snapback] I'm aware. It's quite minor, though.
July 7, 200521 yr RotoWorld said could be six weeks yesterday... is there new news I missed? Hope so.
July 7, 200521 yr enc is are only clutch hitter right now. if a trade were to be for a class A starter than fine but not Z day
July 8, 200521 yr Author Looks like the other two parties went on without us....or maybe we're still part of this somehow? ------------------------ Preston Wilson - OF - COL TSN's Ken Rosenthal is reporting that Preston Wilson will be traded to the Nationals for Zach Day and J.J. Davis if the Rockies agree to pick up enough of Wilson's salary. Wilson could also block the trade or at least hold out for an extension, since the Nationals are on his no-trade list. That Wilson is an obvious downgrade from Ryan Church based on this year's numbers makes this look like a loser for the Nationals. However, they don't view Day or Davis as pieces of their future. Day would make a lot of sense in Coors Field, and his presence would make it easier for the team to trade Joe Kennedy and Shawn Chacon. Davis might get much of an opportunity with the Rockies.
