July 8, 200818 yr Does this trade seem plausible? Jacobs, Hendrickson, and Mitre for Texas Rangers catcher Saltalammachia? The rangers need pitching. Ive always liked his potential and i'm pretty sure hes a local boy and also a switch hitter.

No for the following reasons: They just called up a guy who's essentially a clone of Jacobs IIRC Salty can play 1B and hit better than Jake could IMO Hendrickson is extremely meh and is nothing more than a 1 year long relief pitcher Mitre doesn't have enough upside to warrant this kind of trade
July 8, 200818 yr to get talent, you have to give up talent to give you scraps, you get trash in scraps keep that in mind

July 8, 200818 yr I dont like that trade... no thanks :| That'd be the steal of the century for us. I'm thinking one of their catchers is going to cost at least Hermida during the offseason.
July 8, 200818 yr I want Salty, I just dont want to give Mitre up in that deal. He is from my hometown and played his high school ball 10 min up the road, of course I would want to see him catching Volstad are you kidding me? I just don't think giving up Mitre would be good for us.

July 8, 200818 yr Salty's numbers aren't that great this year. Then again I am not sure how much playing time he gets.
July 8, 200818 yr I know he was in the minors earlier, but I would like to have him.. you guys can hate on Mitre but I like him
July 8, 200818 yr Jacobs & Mitre makes sense. I don't see why they'd want Hendrickson. I'd do it...Salty's #'s now don't show the potential he has...+ it's rare to find a young, switch-hitting C, who can hit the ball.
July 9, 200818 yr Salty for Jacobs and Mitre is a deal that may work, but tossing in Henrickson would be just that, a toss in. Chris

July 9, 200818 yr People seem to ignore the implications of Mitre being on the DL when it comes to the Marlins ability to trade him.
