Do the Yankees still want Werth? Couldn't they potentially be that team? Phillies would definitely have to add though, no? They'd just be trading Werth for Oswalt?

When you factor the $$ in, Werth is more valuable than Oswalt.

Phillies need pitching, eh? Too bad they never had a Cliff Lee or something......

Oswalt is very overrated imo. With his contract and his age, I am glad my Tigers are staying away. I would not give up one top prospect or player.

I'll keep Howard, Utley, Polanco, and Chooch. Keeping Halladay and Hamels, with a wince keeping Lidge, Madson, Durbin, maybe JC. Loading up the rest of the team including Amaro, Chollie, Milt, and Dubee on to a bus and driving it off of the Walt Whitman bridge and starting over. This team has become disgusting to watch, I have better things to do with my time than waste watching what they've done since the ASG. I'm done waiting and hoping for this year, show me Dom Brown, some kids from A and AA are probably more fun to watch at this point. You could have Lee AND Oswalt on this team and it'd still be sucking.

I wonder how Amaro Jr. is liking punchless Gillies and wildthing Aumont.

I know you wrote the book, but Gillies has been hurt all year and Aumont has new mechanics and is starting again. I'm not sticking up for them because they wouldn't make my top ten. I think it's still to early to say they are horrible. The trade might have been horrible, but there is still hope for the prospects.

I would like a trade that brought Oswalt without giving up any of our prospects and just losing Werth. There are three possibilities IMO,

A. Trade Werth in three way deal to get Oswalt without losing any top prospects. Probably some throw ins.
B. Trade Werth for prospects.
C. Keep Werth, get two picks.

Lets be honest, the Phillies probably aren't going anywhere this year but having Oswalt for the next year or two would give them a really good rotation.

A few little things flying around:


-Austin Hyatt may have been scratched from his start
-Rays scout in Lakewood tonight although that makes little sense unless the phillies will be adding something to Werth for a package....

Oswalt possibly would veto a trade to the phillies which would make me happy.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing how this turns out.

In the mean time. The Phillies just pulled this guy up from AA Reading!

Why would Oswalt not going to Philly make you happy?

Speaking of which, the rumors I've heard have Happ going to Houston with spare parts straight up for Oswalt, no Werth included.

We're going to make Ed Wade our bitch again.

He wants his 2012 option for 16 million picked up and at that age, its a risk...
