MLB Trading Deadline

[3SmokesaRound]

I'd like to see the Giants get Jose Reyes from Mac, I mean the Mets, but don't think that will happen. Instead I think we end up with yet another outfielder (Beltran or Upton) to go with the 6 we already have. I prefer Upton and a change of scenery might be good for him.

Before the Wilpons said they wouldn't trade Reyes...there was a lot of talk of him going to the Giants. Love to see a Beltran for Cody Ross trade.

You can have Ross. He "thinks" he's a home run hitter after what he did in the Series. He's NOT! Reyes would be a perfect fit for the Giants and the park. I'm not big on renting Beltran, but we need another bat since Huff blows this year.

Everybody wants Beltran, except Mac!

The Twins already have too many outfielders. No need to add yet another. I think we need a true #1 starter. Liriano shows flashes, but is FAR from consistent. Pavano is a workhorse, but doesn't have #1 stuff. After that, Baker is the best of the bunch, but is down with an arm issue. Dump Delmon Young and Kevin Slowey, and see what else it would take to get a #1, like King Felix. Getting a true front line starter is the only way they do anything in the playoffs, IMO.

Twins are shopping Cudyer for pitching, but he's not worth a true #1.

I keep reading they won't part with Cuddyer. However, I'd gladly give up Jonathan Sanchez for him. Take it Twins!
