but the Stros could be tempted with his upside


Stros have little need to trade for Lipka. They'll be looking to fill positions other than SS. One of the top prospects in the system is a SS and 09 first rounder is a SS.

no doubt, he definitely has talent but I still think the Stros won't wanna take the chance and do it Bourn for Lipka straight up

which is why adding a guy like Todd Redmond(starter), or maybe Steven Marek or Jairo Ascencio out of the pen would make the deal work. We won't need any of these guys ever anyways really.

I think that would be fair to both sides as it stands right now. We get Bourn for this year and next, they get someone that can join their staff immediately and a solid prospect that is years away.

Most don't expect him to remain at SS. More of a CF type.

Plus honestly, Bourn's game suits the Braves needs alot more than Pence does.

Pence is a better fit for a team like Philly. Maybe you can get a Colvin and a singleton for him

Obviously ATL isn't going to uproot J-Hey from RF unless he totally tanks. Pence could play center adequately but hasn't played there in several years. But but Bourn is kind of missing piece. They've got pitching and some decent pop in the lineup but not shite for speed at the top of the order.

Mild hysteria. The medical reason is Mark Teixeira.

Hasn't pitched since May 1st, has to be at least semi-serious.

Would love this. But its gonna take something overwhelming and an overpay on the part of another team to get Pence from the Astros.
