^^^^ so basically we need a better crystal ball, or a tardis, or something like that

Rangers probably would only want Young now that they have Garza, and they are actually talking about trading Nathan rather than Profar for a bat, so I don't think Profar is going anywhere.

I want to offer Michael Young and Papelbon for Andrus and Beltre just so we can watch the hilarity.

And in this scenario Jimmy is catcher since we're getting rid of Ruiz which would be hilariously bad.

The Rangers have also been rumored to be in on Peavy, so I'm assuming that the club is looking everywhere for help. It's not out of the question to swing Profar, E. Beltre, Scheppers for Young, Lee and money. At least I hope it isn't.

@MartinoNYDN: Whether Cliff Lee gets traded or not, we'll see by tomorrow. But man, strong expectation among plugged-in rival execs he will go. #Phillies

His "exec" source also says MYoung is a goner and Utley will sign a deal similar to Beltran's 2/26

Why is there such a big demand for Peavy? He's 32, has had serious injury problems and has a 109 ERA+ over the last 3 years (410.2 IP). FFS, if you go back to his age 28 season he has a 106 ERA+ in 619.1 IP. He hasn't been elite/consistently healthy since 2007.

I'm all in on those 2 moves.

If there are 2 older guys on the roster I'm betting on, it's Utley and Halladay. That would be awesome.
