Zack Greinke signing could spark R.A. Dickey trade

I don't think Texas is a good place for Dickey. The knuckleball tends to flatten out at high temperatures. Combine that with a small ballpark and he could get shelled.

True, but the old Arlington Ballpark wasn't nearly as hitter-friendly as the current Ballpark at Arlington.

Olt doesn't make much sense for the Mets--they have 3B and 1B covered pretty well--unless it is part of a three team trade with Olt going somewhere as a third baseman, and the Mets getting an OF or C back. His primary value is at third, so who has pitching to trade and needs a third baseman? There might not be anyone right now, but at the trade deadline something might come up.

greinke hit the lotto, and dodgers got granted their biggest wish of the year,,,

the rangers need to trade for dickey's personal catcher, is this catcher thole???rangers need to get the two players catcher and pitcher at the same time,,

dodgers have replace the old yankees big spenders, now dodgers at the top of everything with such hugh payroll and WHO can say anything to them???

the BORAS agent would likely move in to LOS ANGELES thanks to the wealthy dodgers,,,

the rangers refuse to offer higher deal to greinke's agent, now the rangers would need to search pitching some where else!!

yankees are thinking in trading robinson cano,,what say you dodgers????

should the dodgers trade for JERED WEAVER and if so when should the deal be set to go???

dodgers aren't done shopping, lets get ryu to a 5 years deal,,, and just cross your fingers that this import pitcher don't get tired at all!!!!

wonder what cliff lee its thinking about now?? late last season the phillies place cliff on the waivers thing, dodgers did claim him,, but the phillies change their mind really fast!!!

the dodgers rotation would be too tough to be easy to handle,,,

the angels should trade weaver, after all they do not have santana neither haren or tough rotation,,,,

angels should trade trumbo and conger for chris archer and james shields or hellickson, angels are desperate in the starter rotation,,,,

other players that halos should trade to get more pitching conssistent AT THE ANAHEIM STADIUM??? jered weaver could help the halos but with anythng inreturn for angels ACE!!

catchers are in demand, angels and yankees have to have a tough catcher

the game would likely be a a tough but matingly still too naive to be able to move the right players in the blues,,
