First, and who cares?

you obviously do, or you wouldn't have read it, or you just looking to be first in something....

I would say Pedro is done.....I'm thinking.

Are the Phils really this hard up for pitching?

The Cardinal rotation is in dire need of help, but I wouldn't really want either of these guys.

nobody mentioned the jays.

Paul Byrd is available?? AWESOME! Where's Joe Roa and Paul Abbott??!!?

I'll try out if they're that desperate. I can throw a good 60 mph so I got "Moyer speed" HA! I'd pass on both of these clowns and just call someone up, we have some good pitching prospects in the minors, they're in first place so who needs to spend $5M for what a 22 yr old can do for $300k?

adam eaton, if you're reading this: you suck!

Pedro, Byrd ? ........who makes this crap up. Pedro has nothing left, and Byrd was a horrible pitcher on a horrible Cleveland team.

The Phillies have already sent people to scout Pedro throwing a simulated game in the DR. He was also scouted during the WBC and scouts reported that he looked the best he's been in two years. So, it's not that people make this crap up. It's that you're too stupid to know what's going on in baseball.

NO...and I agree with you on the lack of want for these two has-beens...............

Marcum, Litsch, and McGowan are scheduled back soon I thought?

Pedro threw a fastball the other day and I was unfortunately turned the other way and it hit me - felt lika a mosquito bit me in the arse - not much !!!

The Phillies need an experienced arm with Myers out for the season. If they can use one of these guys effectively, who cares how much they get paid? Just give me a winning team (AGAIN!)

He might catch on with a team to pitch out of the bullpen, but not a starting job....IMO

Has anybody not been labeled "looking at Martinez"?

Byrd was OK for Boston last year, Pedro was good...5 years ago.

Pitching must really be thin out there. No minor league prospects at all I guess. Too many teams and not enough pitching.
