Reyes is Hot and our Starting Outfield is on the Block.

by Red Blazer on Dec 4, 2007 6:12 PM EST

Check out this post over at...you guessed it mlbtraderumors.com. In a nutshell they say Reyes is generating a lot of interest and that Duncan/Edmonds/Ankiel are all movable. Don't know how true that is but it looks like Mo is open to shaking things up. Maybe we can pull off a trade for Miggy afterall. Once the dominoes start to fall this could get real interesting. I love the Winter Meetings.

For the love of...

yeah, we know.

I will be brief.

nothing against

you Red Blazer, but man theres about 70 topics on this.

Now to not make this a useless post.

Ankiel I doubt will be traded, but I personally wouldn't be against it as his value is probably pretty high right now, and his OBP is terrible.

Duncan, I doubt goes anywhere unless it's for a big deal, because he is a coaches son.

Edmonds, would love to send him SoCal for a decent prospect if a team picks up his contact with it.

Looks like a full on fire sale

to me.

But somehow our firesale won't include us getting good prospects in return...oh no, we are looking to get players that are veterans and not really wanted by their current team. (Cliff Lee)

Why doesn't Mo get rid of Molina & Wainwright while it's at it.

I have a feeling before this is all over, we are going to be neck and neck with the Pirates as the worst team in the National League.

I really..really...really hope I'm wrong.

Now there's an idea...

"Why doesn't Mo get rid of Molina "

If we truly are rebuilding having both Molina and Anderson seems a bit redundant.

What kind of haul could Mr Molina bring?

If there is any team that values him as highly as the Cards (probably not), he'd bring a pretty sweet return.

I realize everyone's as interested

in news as I am, and I don't mean to pile on, but wouldn't these rumors be easier to follow if we consolidated them as much as possible? All the Rolen rumors go in the Rolen diary; the Reyes rumors go in the Reyes diary, etc. Putting them in separate diaries all the time moves other diaries far down and off the page and makes it tough to keep track of what the rumor is now.

OK, OK

Since no new diaries can be started for fresh rumors...here you go.

This is pretty sweet for the Redbirds as Rolen is going to be a hot commodity now.

lol

Also looks like we can cross Peavy off the "free agent pitchers available in the future that we should save our money for" list. SD just locked him up through 2013.
