Re: Padres SS Greene traded to St.Louis
In other news, the Reds haven't done anything...

the other half was mcgee over peavy. call me crazy but i'd rather acquire a stud before he reaches his potential. it's alot cheaper. i'd be open to a trade of alonso for a top middle infielder prospect and a sp prospect. we have a solid 1st baseman now. we could use more IF/SP prospects.

Re: Padres SS Greene traded to St.Louis
Why trade for a SS when we're looking for a RH power/average hitting LFer?
Why trade for a SS when we're looking for possibly a better fielding, better hitting third baseman? Weird.

Re: Padres SS Greene traded to St.Louis
my point was/is that it's a good idea to deal from an area of strength to improve an area that's weak. on our team, and in the farm system, we have alot of players/prospects for the outfield and corner infield spots. we DON'T have alot of starting pitcher prospects with high ceilings or middle infielder prospects that are projected as starters in the middle.
a couple years ago texas traded teix for top catcher and shortstop prospects. they're still in really good shape at 1st but now they have their future shortstop and an extra catcher alot of people want. now don't ya wish the reds could say that?
