June 25, 200719 yr You made this one up yourself didn't you? I'll humor you though....this trade is not feasible nor does it make sense for either side.
June 25, 200719 yr Upside....Offense, Defense and attendance. Downside....Salary. While A-Rod would be an outstanding acquisition, help both offensively and defensively, you've created 2 vacant spots in the OF. Whom would fill those roles and production.
June 25, 200719 yr While we're at it, let's trade David Ross and Eric Milton for Johan Santana and Joe Mauer.
June 25, 200719 yr Author Yeah of course I made it up myself. Just wishful thinking. I would say Hamilton, Freel, Hopper in the outfield, unless you want Votto to play there.
June 25, 200719 yr While we're at it, let's trade David Ross and Eric Milton for Johan Santana and Joe Mauer. :lol: I think a straight up Milton for Santana is a VERY fair trade for both teams. We all know deep down Ross is a Hall of Famer, it's just going to take time.
June 25, 200719 yr :lol: I think a straight up Milton for Santana is a VERY fair trade for both teams. We all know deep down Ross is a Hall of Famer, it's just going to take time. The sad thing is, as soon as Milton gets back from surgery and finds a new team he's going to have an all-star season. I would bet every penny I have on it. But if he stayed with the Reds he would be twice as bad.

But if he stayed with the Reds he would be twice as bad. I don't know about All Star, but I agree, I wouldn't be shocked at all to see him come back and win 10-15 games with someone.

June 25, 200719 yr Wasn't Milton an all star in Minnesote a few years ago? Wow, you are right, I had no IDEA. With Minnesota, Milton had a record of 57-51, with 715 strikeouts and a 4.76 earned run average, and was selected to the 2001 AL All-Star team. Many thanks to the fine people at Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Milton
June 25, 200719 yr Yeah of course I made it up myself. Just wishful thinking. I would say Hamilton, Freel, Hopper in the outfield, unless you want Votto to play there.I don't remember who said it first. But any team that has Ryan Freel as an everyday player has big time issues. Throw Hopper in with him and we might as well move the team to Louisville....
June 25, 200719 yr we might as well move the team to Louisville.... You mean this is not the Louisville AAA team?? :scared:
June 26, 200719 yr You mean this is not the Louisville AAA team?? :scared: :lol: I don't think this current major league team could take 2 of 3 from Dayton. :lol:
