Felix Hernandez
With the Mariners falling so hard out of contention do you think the reds could make a move for king felix?

Re: Felix Hernandez
No. He would cost the farm, and if I remember correctly his contract is pretty hefty.

Re: Felix Hernandez
So you are saying Felix wouldn't be an upgrade? I agree, hitting right now is the bigger issue. We need a 4 hitter and a leadoff guy, but dismissing a TOR because we need hitting seems rash. Both are needs.

Re: Felix Hernandez
The Mariners stayed in contention until the last two weeks with something like a .240 team BA thanks to guys like King Felix.

Re: Felix Hernandez
Two other Mariner starters have better e.r.a.'s than King Felix. Felix makes $19 to $20M for the next 3 or 4 seasons.
Just say no. Reds can't afford that.

This year he's statistically on par with Bailey and Willis, and better than Leake, Wood, and Volquez.
