Re: Chase Headley

I think Leake, one of Corcino/ Cingrani, and Frazier gets that deal done-- and I would love to make that deal.

The Pads need pitching badly. Two league average pitchers with upside (Leake and Corcino/ Cingrani) and a 3B replacement-- all of whom are fairly young and cheap but ready now-- has to be enticing.

Headley, as a switch-hitter, would be ideal for this lineup, both now and in the future (assuming he signs):

Choo CF
Phillips 2B
Votto 1B
Headley 3B
Bruce RF
Ludwick LF
Cozart SS
Hanigan C

That might be a better lineup than St. Louis.
