    I just do not see Luke Scott going to Tampa Bay. His numbers, lower salary for team control would make me start any trade talk with Desmond Jennings or Reid Brignac and packaged with David Newmann.

    Seeing Balfour go down and they wanted to add Will Ohman, they need to add Aneury Rodriguez as the third piece in a 3 for 2 deal.

    This is my stance and hope McPhail has something simiar. If so, it will not get completed.

      Exactly. Not sure why everyone was expecting a trade when Scott is cheap and could be a nice bat down the road.

    I hear Rick Vanden Hurk for Ohman.

      Not bad return for Ohman. Camden Crazies sums it up nicely:

    i always try to be hopeful but i cannot help but close my eyes to this with using the ERA as basis.
