this is my first time posting but i visit the site every day, multiple times lol. so i was bored last night and decided to try to play gm as best as i could realistically. sorry, i know everyone tries to do this but i would love to know what everyone thinks of this. :)

trade rolen/reyes/$/flores? for capuano/hall
trade duncan/looper/spects/whoever for cain or lowry, and some more depth (not sure if duncan will  move though.
sign bradley for 2 yr/10mil ish (high risk, high reward, but he can sure hit)
sign affeldt for 1 yr/2.5mil ish (if flores goes)

maybe could trade duncan in a package for blalock and put hall at 2b or ss but i don't think that will happen.

lineup..
bradley lf
izturis ss
pujols 1b
edmonds cf
hall 3b
ankiel rf
molina c
kennedy p

bench...
larue c
ryan if
speizio ut
ludwick of
shumaker of

rotation...

capuano
cain/lowry
mulder
pineiro
carp

pen...
izzy cl
franklin rh
springer rh
wellemeyer rh
thompson rh
johnson lh
affeldt/flores lh

total payroll (including juan, carp, kinney, etc.) = 95-102 mil

oquendo would need to work with hall at 3b, tony and bradley would need to get past their differences (but with rolen gone thats one less headache for him lol) but i really think this is fairly realistic and could possibly happen. lets hope the cards get active this winter. what's everyone think? thanks for reading my first post and be nice! :) go cards!
