Why not?

He's been a top 5 2B in the AL for the past 5 years.

Because he's only played 150 games twice. He's a regular on the DL. I like him, but fragile 31 year olds don't magically get more healthy as they age. Also, 2B as a group, age like crap.

I'd have kept him because he would have netted the lowest return, and he's still a way above average 2b.


I don't think kinsler is the centerpiece of a Stanton or Jupton trade last summer for example, but profar and Elvis definitely are.

This seems odd. Why'd St. Louis dump him?

...plus they have a bazillion arms in their system that they've been shuffling up and down all year. Too much talent.

Not seeing what the overall infatuation with this guy is... .270/13 homers :yawngif:


13 homers with that field as your home park is something, plus he has been hurt for a little while this season.

Stanton in the Rangers ballpark would be a dream come true. Or he goes to Boston with the short left field and could rake there as well

Rzepcynski has pretty much been getting shelled this year, and to make room for younger arms

Guess I shouldn't have made a thread for it and just discussed it in here, oh well

I'm calling it now....Jake Peavy to the Braves. A move that would make a lot of sense with the Braves pitching situation/injuries.

The Cardinals have contacted the Angels about Erick Aybar.

Oh damn did I call that if it happens.

He gives us speed but is he really that much better than Kozma otherwise?
