I got the answer to both your problems, Mets fans. We will package you both Broxton and Francoeur. You get your relief help and your righty OF bat in one trade.

Hey, while I agree Broxton would help the Mets, the Mets released “Frenchy” back in 2010. Why would they want him back and especially trading something to get him back?
As for the Phillies, make a trade and get younger!

I think it makes sense for the Nationals to get a pitcher just for the rest of the season. Yes, they also need a replacement for Jackson long term, but that would probably be better done in the offseason when trades are less urgent, and often more buyer friendly, and the FA market is an option. As long as the price is reasonable, Dempster would be the ideal target.

The Nats really don’t need to do anything, if we lose Jackson next year I’m sure Meyer,Purke,or 1 of the other great pitching prospects can fill the gap, plus if Wang or lannan pitch better one o them will take over for Stras

Good to see the Marlins aren’t resigning Oviedo, but this brings me back to the question I had 8 months ago, “Why did you resign this in the first place?”

I have no idea how Francisco Liriano got lumped in with Dempster and Grienke. His price is VERY low. The Twins are never going to offer him the $12.4 million required by the CBA for compensation were he to refuse it. Which he wouldn’t because his monetary value is likely $6-7 million. His trade value at this point is barely above a bag of balls. Because of the CBA rules. And he is no where as good as Dempster or Grienke.
