Buehrle and Colon seem to be totally imploding for me. I was just offered Javier Vazquez for Jorge Posada. Good trade or no?

The Catchers on the Waiver wire are

Marrero, Eli
Matheny, Mike
Molina, Bengie
Estalella, Bobby
Mayne, Brent
Davis, Ben
Barajas, Rod
Moeller, Chad
LaRue, Jason
Pierzinski, AJ

If the trade is a good idea, which catcher do you reccommend?

[mudcat12]

Deal fell through. Now he wants Luis Castillo and Darren Dreifort for Fernando Vina and Javier Vasquez?

Yes? No?

[Fullabull]

I like Pierzinski off the wire.

Don't give up on Colon & Buehrle. They are in the difficult portion of their schedule. They still have plenty of games to play against Detroit/Cleveland etc... Buehrle was a victom of sloppy defense yesterday.

I really don't think your staff is all that bad but Vasquez could end up being a great acquisition IF he is traded to a contender by the trading deadline.

[mudcat12]

So yes? I do the deal, or am I giving up too much for something I don't need?

[SlushyBOB]

I'd do it. Buerhle and Colon will straighten out and you'll have Vazquez as well. Vina will get you runs and a decent avg. I'd take the deal.

[PopTop]

You've got enough speed with Pierre, Abreu & Furcal to make it worth your while to deal Castillo in order to get a pitcher of Vasquez's ability ... I'd make the deal in a heartbeat.

[Fullabull]

Yes, do the deal. You already have more starting pitchers than you can use. You won't miss Driefort. See if you can upgrade Vina through the Wire.

Young, Eric
Young, Michael
Baerga, Carlos
Stynes, Chris
Belliard, Ronnie
Graffanino, Tony
Berg, Dave
Polanco, Placido
Hudson, Orlando
Alomar, Roberto
Febles, Carlos
Loretta, Mark
Bellhorn, Mark
Reese, Pokey

These are the best FA 2B out there. Any of them better than Vina in your opinion?

M. Young -tex is prob the best at this time
but keep an eye on Hudson-Tor
