Alright, let's say Halladay and Gonzalez are both traded. Which nets the bigger haul?

Posted by the wrong element, bad guy (aka JFields) Nov 11 '09, 12:30

How big a haul is it?

Which teams do they go to?

Responses:

Halladay should be just becuase of scarcity. - Will Hunting Nov 11, 12:48 9
- To both of you, do you think the O's give Brandon Snyder a chance to be first baseman in spring training? - Inigo Nov 11, 12:52 7
  - I think it's a possibility, but they'd prefer to wait a year. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 11, 13:00
  - I dunno. I thought his slot was going to be 3B..... -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 11, 12:55 5
    - Waring was 3B. Although, I think he's gonna go 1B too. - Inigo Nov 11, 12:58 4
      - Until you get someone quality to take our confederate money, I think he should get a chance at 1b then. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 11, 13:01 3
        
        One problem is that there isn't much quality available at 1B this year. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 11, 13:06 2
        
        Conor Jackson just got waived. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 11, 13:06 1
        
        DBacks gave up on him? -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 11, 13:11
- Exactly. A hand down/lights out Ace is something every team wishes they could have. -- nm - Jim Nov 11, 12:49

- no he's not. 2 years of Adrian for $10.25M total, vs 1 year of Roy for $15.75M. It's not even close. Adrian in a walk. -- nm - TFox Nov 11, 12:38 2
  - I also think more teams can bid for Gonzalez. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 11, 12:40 1
    - correct. -- nm - TFox Nov 11, 12:41
Personally, I'd pay more for Adrian. In reality, who knows. -- nm - TFox Nov 11, 12:35
Halladay, no doubt in my mind. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 11, 12:30 10
- Word...you can get a bat anywhere...but an ace SP...notsomuch. -- nm - Jim Nov 11, 12:33 9
  - A bat, yes. An Adrian Gonzalez, no. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 11, 12:47 8
    - When Gonzalez equals Pujols or Fielder...I might change my opinion. -- nm - Jim Nov 11, 12:52 4
      - I'd say he's on par with Fielder now. Pujols, of course not. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 11, 12:53 3
        
        Fielder is ahead of him IMO. - groiny Nov 11, 12:58 2
        
        Gonzales also hits in that huge park....give him a normal stadium (not even philly) and I think he's a .285/45 guy. - Will Hunting Nov 11, 13:05 1
        
        he is a better fielder. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 11, 13:07
    - He is not Pujols, let's not get carried away. - groiny Nov 11, 12:52 1
      - No, but I want to know how far down the list to go. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 11, 13:11
    - The Red Sox need Adrian so much more than Halladay, it's silly. Install him at 1B and slide Youk over, and I'd repaint my house white instantly. -- nm - TFox Nov 11, 12:49
