We're going to have to go to the farm system.

The problem with that is that the only guys that are having good seasons are either not real prospects or top-notch prospects.

If Hearther, Stavinoha, Greene, etc were hitting the ball this might be an easier process. No one will want Terry Evans and Rico Washington as the centerpiece of a trade.

The pitchers have been better though, but I hate trading away minor league pitching.
That's a quote from a post I made on June 28th.

I was totally wrong, and I freely admit it! I'm glad to admit it!

The big question is who's out? It's gotta be Ponson.


edit - What if Mulder comes back?

I hope Duncan can do what other pitching coaches couldn't do. Make him keep the ball down low
He just has to be better than Ponson and push Suppan whenever Mulder comes back. That's not asking too much out of him, and his career numbers indicate that, at worst, he can do that just fine.

I refuse to believe that would happpen.

Again, assuming is gone Ponson what happens when Mulder comes back?
