June 5, 200719 yr Heard today that Lidge is on the block. To me this is a priority. Send K Dunn to Texas for Mr. Lidge-----Today!!!!!!!!
June 5, 200719 yr Trade a young power hitter for a setup man? Don't kid yourself. Lidge is a closer in a setup role right now. 30 years old and brings it. He has a lot of value for $5m per year. Who are the better closers in the NL? I'm not as well versed as I used to be so I'm truly asking. Wagner Hoffman Who else?
June 5, 200719 yr Lidge hasn't proved he can still close out games cshs until otherwise he isn't even of that value IMO.
June 5, 200719 yr Lidge hasn't proved he can still close out games cshs until otherwise he isn't even of that value IMO. That's crazy talk. I like Dunn more than the average Reds fan (and less than HSSRB) but I'd have to consider it and consider what counteroffer I might make but I'd consider it for a long, long time.
June 5, 200719 yr Just wait untill Bill Bray comes back, the bullpen will get a much needed improvement.

I like Dunn more than the average Reds fan (and less than HSSRB) but I'd have to consider it and consider what counteroffer I might make but I'd consider it for a long, long time. How is that crazy. I would love to know his ERA in closing situations the last 2 years.
June 5, 200719 yr You have to get more out of Dunn. I agree some sort of move needs to be made and Dunn makes the most sense to get rid of, but surely you can get more than just Lidge.

June 5, 200719 yr An article in Sports Illustrated last year was estimating about 20 years from now what the home run list would look like and Adam Dunn was in the top 5 with nearly 700 homers.
June 5, 200719 yr Not even anything to talk about..If anything here are the latest predictions. Lidge to the Phillies for prospects Dunn to the Padres...
June 5, 200719 yr How is that crazy. I would love to know his ERA in closing situations the last 2 years. I'm sure I can figure it out but do not scoff at a guy with 32/38 saves vs opps who throws in the high 90s and this year has an ERA under 3 I believe. Remember - to get quality, you have to give up quality. They're not taking Norris Hopper for Lidge.
