    Crawford or Kazmir would be great, Iwamura is probably out of the question. Maybe Hunsicker will pull some kind of deal, pupura sure doesnt impress me with trades so far.

    What would the Astros have to give up for Carl Crawford?

    Burke, Lidge and Lane? Maybe Patton?

    What would it take?

    hmmmmmm the devil rays have alot of interesting players.

    i wouldnt mind rocco but he always seems to get hurt. but do we really need him? we have lee, burke, and scott in the outfield with pence waiting down in the farm.

    bj upton anyone? talented young speedy infielder that could bring a spark to the team. could replace ensberg's so called bat.

    #2 overall pick in the draft, 22 years old, and three years ago he was rated the top prospect in all of baseball.

    He has defensive problems, but I think you'd have about as good a chance to get Crawford or Kazmir for Lidge.

    I can't make up my mind between Crawford and Kazmir, so they can just send us both.

    We have tons of scrubs we can give them, Ensberg/Lane/Lidge/Wandy if it's for Crawford and we can sign him long term give em Pence and Lidge and we will take one of their pitching prospects along with Carl.

    Crawford would be nice, but I want to give Pence a shot.

    i don't know anything about Riggans, but future starting catcher has a nice ring to it.

    Isn't Crawford the Vince Young of MLB?

    obviously we all think pence has great potential but crawford is already everything we hope pence will be, plus i think his contract is cheap as ****.

    i don't know why the rays would trade him.

    Nobody considers a consistently above .800 (really, above .850) OPS 3B a scrub. Sorry.
