I never said that Pagan = Carl Crawford. But I don't know his relationship with the Rays, or their intention toward him. Two years ago if I suggested Humber, Gomez et. al. for Johan Santana on this site, I'd probably be hearing the same response. We need more than Pagan in LF, and Cory Sullivan is a good enough 4th OF. Why not dress Pagan up and see what we can get? I can’t say I think much of your salesmanship.

Im not so sure about this trade. You could probably get Roy Halladay with a package like that, assuming you add one more good pitching prospect (think Parnell). I still wouldnt make that trade, either of them, I'm just keeping things in perspective...

There is no reason for anyone to sit here today and suggest Delgado is done. He went down due to injury, but he was playing at a very high level before that happened. Will he play at that level ever again? Who the heck knows? But theres no evidence to suggest anything other that what we have already seen. Personally (and this is coming from someone who has never been very high on Delgado) I think we should make every effort to sign him for a 1 year deal, just as long as we can get him for well less than $10 million. My hope is he is possible to sign at $8 million or so, but what do I know? But then again, that leads right back to what do we do with Daniel Murphy. I mean can you reasonably send him back to AAA now? Or do you make him ride the bench?? I'd take Cameron back in a heartbeat, but not for anything more than a 4th outfielder, with Pagan as a bat off the bench/late game defensive sub and filler if necessary (though Im not even sure hes best suited for that kind of role).
