Asher · Post #5 » by **Asher** » Thu Jul 19, 2007 5:16 pm

what can we give? gross they wouldn't want unless in a package with minor leaguers or villanueva/parra... jenkins/dunn straight-up? gwynn straight-up? please, why oh why do we need another power-hitting, low-avg-carrying outfielder?

Gwynn, Wise and a prospect.

But isn't Tony Gwynn in the lineup today? Wouldn't we pull him from the lineup if we are trading him?

Can't hit with RISP. Hate this.

No... tell me it's Griffey Jr. instead

Asher · Post #12 » by **Asher** » Thu Jul 19, 2007 5:22 pm

i don't like it initially, but if he keeps hitting home runs... is he going to slide right into the five-spot? that's a great 3-4-5 in braun fielder dunn.

now I'd LOVE this if true....so long as the prospect isn't named "Rickie Weeks"

In Brewer Fan they said it was Turnbow and Wise.

Look, Dunn hitting behind Prince would be pretty damn good...

So is this official? Does anyone have a link?

If we are trading two people in our bull pen :nonono:

Asher · Post #19 » by **Asher** » Thu Jul 19, 2007 5:28 pm

ken rosenthal, last month:

Dunn's contract stipulates that his $13 million club option for next season would be voided by a trade, making him a free agent at the end of the season. Thus, the sooner the Reds acted, the better the package they would receive.

MadCityBucky · Post #20 » by **MadCityBucky** » Thu Jul 19, 2007 5:29 pm

Yeah, never mind. But Dun is like someone said gonna be a FA, that the Brewers can't keep. If Melvin is serious about making a World Series run then this'll go through.
