Well fuck me running, he's basically the only available closer type out there I'd be interested in. Wonder what it would take to get him?

Interesting.

Well...he's good and he'd improve our bullpen, for sure.

I'd prefer a bat, but this would be cool too.

Sounds like a plan to me. It would be an upgrade.

Fuck yeah! I hope this is true. I see the Cubs giving up maybe Wells or Fox. If the Padres don't necessarily want a major league ready guy, it might take a Carpenter or Harrison along with one or two lesser prospects.

Wells for Bell and Shark to the rotation?

I'm not ready to throw Shark into the rotation. In fact, I'm not sure I'm ready for him to be a major leaguer.

Me neither. I'd much rather have Wells in the rotation, at least for now.

If we can turn a guy like Wells into Bell, I am all for it.

Hmm, trading for a fairly cheap closer signed through at least next year. I've got a bad feeling about this. My guess is that we aren't happy with what we give up.
