Not really. i think the majority are in favor of breaking this team up. we arent winning anytime soon so I personally could give a frick if we trade him to a division rival. whoever gives us the best deal is who im rooting for to land roy.

This is where I stand. I don't care if he goes to St. Louis. He'll just be there for a year and a half. For the guys saying St. Louis won't pay the salary, he said he'd restructure it if it were the Cardinals he were traded to.

Give me some young guys. Roy isn't as dominate as he once was and he can be beat. Ship him to St. Louis and get some bats. It's time for changes.

Well if you're only looking at W-L, you'll get no argument from me.

All of his numbers are on pace for his career norm, and some are better this year than his career.

BAA- .220 career best (by .15/ .034 lower than his career)
Whip- 1.07 (.01 away from career best)
ERA- 3.12 lower than his career ERA

6- 200IP seasons when at least starting 32 games and on pace for his 7th 200IP.

He's only in his 10th season, he's got at least 4 or 5 years to keep these numbers up.

How is he slacking besides W-L again? Let's not talk out of our asses here about his value.
