And I think that Nolasco could replace Kuroda for one year, and wouldn't cost us much of anything prospect-wise.

High level talent that will get us more Michael Pineda's of the world.....

kuroda was our best pitcher last year without him we don't make the playoffs.

Marlins are shopping both Nolasco and Morrison.

I'd love to see the Yankees step up and get either one of them

Both would be a nice deal in our favor.

Both are awful.

I prefer we go get Josh for pure entertainment value on and off the field.

If MLB tr is correct, Barry Zito makes $27 million in 2013!!!!!!!!!!

That's just horrifying.

Will they take Arod for him? Oh.

Maybe Cashman can pull of a trade for Stanton by offering Montero, Brackman, Tabata, Betances, Campos, Pineda and Humberto Sanchez.

Well more importantly they could be used as trade chips in the future. Very valuable

Personally neither excite me but if the price is low enough I guess. I'd rather some of these young minor league arms get a chance to prove themselves in the rotation and not be stuck to mop up bullpen duty or give it to an average at best veteran.

Nolasco is terrible. Morrison has high upside.

Who, barring a freak injury, would be a very productive player right now. Also, we didn't draft him. I'm pretty sure Seattle got him as an IFA.

If we're going cheap in 2013 and 2014, I doubt we'll win the World Series. Might as well get as many draft picks as we can, and go all-out for prospects for the time being, then go crazy after we get under the luxury tax threshold. More money AND more prospects = big time trades, free agent signings and maybe a few home-grown studs as well.

As you said I would also like to see trades now that would net us some top tier prospects if we go cheap 2013 2014 then make an 09 splash and spend away.

Atleast a couple of the kids should have an impact plus all the FA signings and or big trades.

It would be hard to fill the ballpark tho if they go this route

could be a good project for the Yankees. The kid has talent but he needs to show it
