June 14, 2008 Can Of CornMock Blockbuster, Part III
What follows is the latest installment of the Mock Blockbuster. As previously explained, I'm proposing a trade of the blockbuster variety, one that from my perspective makes sense for all teams involved. In terms of tenability, it depends: these are deals that may or may not have a chance of happening in the demonstrably more complicated world of reality. The deals I'm suggesting strike me as helpful and inspiring for all. So, serious prescriptive or idle daydreaming? A little helping of both, please. The Cardinals Get: SP C.C. Sabathia The Indians Get: OF Colby Rasmus, C Bryan Anderson Why It Makes Sense for St. Louis Right now, the Cards lead in the National League's wild-card race and are teasingly close to the Cubs in the Central. However, because of injuries, their standing is in peril. Albert Pujols is out for a bit, and ace Adam Wainwright is sidelined with a fairly serious finger injury. Losing a lavishly excellent player like Pujols is never a good thing, but by pairing Chris Duncan with pick-your-right-handed-platoon-partner the Cardinals can abide. The rotation poses more serious problems, and that's where they need help.
