and can only play first.

After posting this morning, the Reds GM was quoted that he's not going to trade Votto, so scrap my idea.

If we trade Sanchez it has to be for a player that the Giants control for at least the next 2 years.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow, what a Ride!"

  - Dye in right, trade Sanchez/Schierholtz/Noonen for Carl Crawford, resign Penny. - Psyched 2009-11-07 13:51:31 (182 views)
    - No I'd pass. I like Crawford but that's a lot to give up for 1 year of Crawford - Calvin and Hobbs 2009-11-11 09:18:55 (116 views)

- Didn't you just describe Nate Schierholtz? - The Lucky Cap 2009-11-06 09:51:26 (134 views)
  - Also, Schierholtz hits lefties better. - Hawk_941 2009-11-07 00:10:23 (102 views)
  - that's what I was thinking... can't discern how Hermida is possibly better than Bowker or Nate - g-drive 2009-11-06 10:04:33 (154 views)

  - No. He hasn't shown much power and hits .237 against lefties. - Hawk_941 2009-11-06 09:40:48 (153 views)
    - How about Xavier Nady, if healthy? - LG 2009-11-06 22:04:43 (153 views)
      - If better options have been ruled out, and he's cheap, sure. - The Lucky Cap 2009-11-07 06:26:31 (122 views)
