Yes, but your not going to like them, a trade for Greg Maddux would be something
Phillips would do. Is Minaya so desperate for starting pitching that he is
willing to add a pitcher who was great a few years ago. Granted Maddux started
out five in oh in april but he is 3-11 the rest of the season. I think he has
the same tired arm that Glavine has right now, adding him and giving up any kind
of prospects might not be so great.

Maddux's stats this year

Glavine started out well early this year as well, but his arm is getting tired
and is struggling around the fifth inning. I heard the Padres are in the mix as
well, how about say Chris Young who is younger(excuse the pun). I just hate to
see us try and look like the yankees and trade away all of our young talent for
older high priced free agents.

Not for nothing I called it, I still think this could be a good
trade depending on who they are talking about sending, It will be
hard to let go of anyone on the bench right now everyone has
contributed. But Omar isn't Phillips no Kaz for Zambrano trades
please!!! Can't think of who they could package, for Greg..
Traschel shouldn't be on the menu for sure, and don't think the
rookie arms should be either. It will be interesting to see what
kinda package they will put together.
