Is Lowe or Penny a buy-low right now or are they just this bad?

@cruisinkc: Yeah, that would be a bit too much. @Freak: Ludwick.

Ryan Ludwick for Kerry Wood.

Who wins?

So would Felix and Soto be too much to give up for Hamels?

@Darrin: Chances he keeps hitting three home runs a week? Slim to anorexic. Can he get to 30 home runs? Probably. He’s about a home run/15 at-bat guy. LaRussa’s your biggest obstacle right now because there’s a chance he starts some other schmohawks in the outfield over Ludwick on occasion and Rasmus is waiting in the wings too. Anyway, for $2, you’re already playing with house money. Be happy with what you get! (I’d say that will be 65/28/80/.270.)

What I say yesterday was Ryan Ludwick continue to look like the next best thing to sliced bread. I am loving my $2 pickup at the moment. What are the chances that he keeps these numbers going?????

@cruisinkc: Well, Hamels I like a lot more than those other two, but you shouldn't be adding much to Felix to make that trade happen. Say a hot hitter that you grabbed off waivers. Like a Ludwick, for instance.

Oh an another thing… I was also looking to target Cole Hamels. What type of player would I have to add with King Felix to get a deal done? Thanks.

@cruisinkc: There’s reason to be concerned that CC has thrown too many innings the last few years. On the other hand, Felix is a bit of an injury risk. Either way, not a big fan of apples for apples trades and this appears to be one. CC won’t be that much better to warrant this trade. I’d pass.
