Freddy Garcia?

by redbirdnation on Nov 28, 2006 8:29 PM EST

It has been reported by Jim Street of MLB.com that the White Sox are looking to shop Freddy Garcia. Although mostly NL West teams are rumored to be interested, I think Freddy would be a great addition to our rotation as the number 2 guy. We would probably have to give up dunc and maybe someone from the bullpen or some minors. Would do you all think?

wudnt go through

We cant beat the offer of the Angels which is Chone Figgins and Ervin Santanna...

there is no way that they would take duncan and a couple of relievers... they have plenty of outfielders and pitchers...

Keep dreaming

especially on ur schmidt rumors

wow

the angels are insane. Santana is probably going to be better than Freddy Garcia over the next few years.

I agree

I live in Orange County so I have heard a lot of the rumors and I don't get it at all. Garcia and Crede for Santana and Figgins? Doesn't make sense. I think the Angels get two worse players. Crede did have a good year last year and Figgins pretty much an off year, but I would take Santana over Garcia right now. I have seen Santana pitch a couple of times and he has great stuff. He gets into trouble with walks, but that is probably just being young.

not a real offer

the angels didnt make that offer. the chisox dreamed it up.

if we are willing to pick up a salary

like that, we are better off saving our trading chips and pushing hard for Schmidt who is better and costs us nothing other than a draft pick and $$$. Garcia isn't good enough to be a #2 imo.

Acquire Jason Schmidt!
