2008-09 Hot Stove Thread

Except at that point, it is the Yankees entering fantasy land. Cano did some real damage to his value in '08. I'm sure the Angels think they are better off hoping Howie Kendrick can finally stay healthy.

Hey, Rich Harden and Kerry Wood both played more often than they sat on the DL last season, so anything is possible.

 

I wasn't serious about the 27-year old Cano for 35-year old Matthews Jr trade.

Just throwing out bait for the Yankees apologists on the board.

Now how about Ian Kennedy for Wily Mo Pena? That's a deal that helps both clubs.

 

No thanks, Yanks have enough CFs who can't hit, at least the other 2 can field. Are you planning on using this thread as a Red Sox fantasy board for long? Tampa needs a bat, Shields for Brian Giles with Price replacing him in the rotation?

 

Maybe I need some sleep. I'm not sure if you are kidding about that or not. If you aren't, you should be.

 

Agreed, oop. That has to be a joke.

 

Uh, Wily Mo hasn't been a CFer in about four years, and even then, it wasn't every game.

 

But he's coming into camp in the best shape of his life!

Word!

 

OK, but the Yanks have too many corners, only reason to get him (and there is none) is for CF.

 

And he's still got the most raw power in the league!!!

 

OK - that Wily Mo proposed trade was another little joke.

You guys are watching too much Steve Phillips on ESPN to be taking this shit seriously.

Really - Wily Mo for Ian Kennedy? Why not trade Wily Mo back to the Red Sox for Clay Buchholz?

 

The hell with that. We already dealt with his bullshit. He couldn't bat his way out of a wet paper bag. When he did connect though, boy, oh boy, did he ever connect. I remember watching him hit a home run into the Green Monster and some fan nearly got his head taken clean off.
