Trading Hughes?
For Pujols...that's a no-brainer. But a trade like that can only happen at the comfort of your own computer using Baseball Mogul or Inside the Park. LOL
I think I would part with Hughes for Liriano or Johann.
Of course the Hughes trade would only signal the initial offer and more would have to be offered.
Hughes has plenty of upside and is showing very good promise...but Liriano is already doing "it" at the Big League Level."After my fourth season I asked for $43,000 and General Manager Ed Barrow told me, 'Young man, do you realize Lou Gehrig, a 16-year-man, is playing for only $44,000?' I said, Mr. Barrow, there is only one answer to that - Mr. Gehrig is terribly underpaid."- Yankees outfielder Joe DiMaggio

Anyway, Liriano is dirt cheap. I wouldn't mind, but I'd still ask if they'd accept another package of players. The thought of both pitching here in 2007 seems a bit too intriguing.Please read Baseball Fever Policy and Forum FAQ before posting. 2007-11 CBA

With Chacon struggling bigtime, Wright unable to go more than 5 IP, and Randy Johnson being inconsistent, I think it's time the Yankees gave Jorge DePaula another shot at the rotation. His minor league numbers are pretty good this year and he seems to be finally recovered from Tommy John surgery.

Right now, whether debated or not, Moose, Wang and Johnson must be feeling some pressure to perform and eat innings.Last edited by Mattingly; 07-05-2006, 11:23 AM.Please read Baseball Fever Policy and Forum FAQ before posting. 2007-11 CBA

I think it's time to send Chacon back to the bullpen and pitching in Mop ups or 6th innings until he can regain his form.
Jaret Wright...can do the same.
I'd give Kris Wilson a shot or two to earn a spot. He's having a good season down @ AAA.
I also wouldn't mind seeing JB Cox up. Since he's supposed to be the Heir to Mo...it'd be a good time to give him some innings."After my fourth season I asked for $43,000 and General Manager Ed Barrow told me, 'Young man, do you realize Lou Gehrig, a 16-year-man, is playing for only $44,000?'

At this point, I can't see a trade in the real world that makes any sense whatsoever. None. The team is in second, well in contention, and major talent is on the mend. Wright's been told by Guidry to throw his best stuff for six innings and let the other guys work, and that's just what he's doing lately, with pretty good results. Mussina is just terrific, Wang also. Johnson still eats up innings most of the time and is showing flashes of himself, and could have a good second half. What can you say about Mo? There are potentialy good arms in rehab and patiently working their way back. The offense has clubbed Chicago for 20 runs in two games, and actually bunted three consecutive times in a single inning. Can anyone with the records please tell us the last time any Yankee team did that? I nearly fainted.
The discipline and restraint being shown is admirable; let's hope it stays that way. If Cashman folds his cards and walks away from the table before the deadline, I'm totally behind him. This team and organization already has all it needs to win.
