If we win tonight I think we have to go with Waino tomorrow

And I wouldn't mind trading Oscar, I can't stand his swing mechanics and he has almost no plate discipline at all.

Plus with gridchuk's (sp?) looking promising along with Jay having a career year they probably feel they can't part with Oscar

I've also heard through the grapevine several times that Oscar doesn't behave/play with the attitude that our organization demands of its players. Nit playing through minor aches/pains, not giving it 100%, etc. I have no idea if that is true or not but I've heard it from ppl within the organization

I just don't know what we go for by trading him though.

He will still warrant a very very high return in a trade, and unless we're going after a RFer we don't need anyone. No reason to trade Taveras for another starter when we have Waino Shelby Wacha Lackey Martinez Gonzalez.

And in the field you don't really need anything unless you're going to do a package deal and trade Taveras+ a starter in the field for a large upgrade at that position.

Bingo.

Its been pretty widely known all season. Rumor also had him being shopped hard at the deadline with no real good deals being offered in return.

Dont be surprised if he is moved for quite a bit less then many Cards fans think he is worth. Word travels fast about players like this.
