And we'll take him too, thank you very much. The Halo's would have to give up Jarrod Washburn for him, which saddens me because I think he's one of the best lefties in the AL, but his durability has been questionable every season and with Colon and Escobar, he seems expendable at this juncture. Washburn and Eckstein for Nomar Garciaparra - oh I can't wait.
Vlad is off the table for the Halos after Colon signed so you can stop wishing for that. They're looking at Rafeal Palmiero and a speedy right fielder. They're likely to trade for Garciaparra, Carlos Beltran or Magglio Ordonez though, so Colon will get some offensive help in the not to distant future.
That gives them Colon, Escobar, Sele, Ortiz and Lackey with a solid bullpen (Assuming Wash gets dealt, otherwise subsitute Wash for Lackey).
Glaus, Garciaparra, Kennedy and Rafeal Palmiero in the infield, Anderson, Erstad and a platoon of Salmon and a speedy RFer who has yet to be determined. If not Garciaparra, Carlos Beltran or Ordonez in the outfield with Erstad at First perhaps.
Happy days in Anaheim again....
Wahoo!
And the PAdres are getting every other free agent the Dodgers were looking at so the Dodger Blue ha become Dodger Blues and I can only go back tot he Kevin Brown deal for that. Ahahahahaha!!!!
