Well, it probably has more to do with them hoping that Larry Bigbie was the answer in left field and them being horribly wrong. Encarnacion hasn't been great, but at least passable in right field....

Lamb is hitting over .360 with almost a 1.000 OPS this year. Somebody who is that hot, you keep playing him. Eventually, I see a 1b/RF platoon of Lamb and Berkman and against righthanded pitching with...

Conners -- I wasn't aware that Jocketty was a blabber-mouth. I think the rumor may be based in truth. At least he's doing something, even if it's just running his mouth.

It's certainly Tal's Hill.Conners, it IS too early and perhaps the rumor never even started with Jocketty. I love the Astros for lots of reasons, one of them being that they don't trade just to trade....

It's been Purpura's club since the moment he was hired as GM. That's what was meant by my comment.

Needless to say the Pirates will bend over and take it from the Cardinals in any trade.

No, no - the Pirates only bend over for the Cubs.Compare the two rumors we've seen... you have the Pirates offering Craig Wilson, a far lesser player than Carlos Lee, and demanding a much more highly...

The Cardinals think Reyes is some super prospect but he isn't. If they trade wainwright for Wilson then their bullpen gets even weaker too though. They don't have good organizational depth.

Some of the Cardinals' fans aren't happy with the idea of trading Wainwright for C. Wilson. That would be similar to the Astros trading Chad Qualls. Those fans think that the Cards GM needs to get the...

Cardinals fans have a habit of over-valuing their own players. Isn't Wainwright normally a starter?
