Melky

What do you think it would take for the dbacks to get Melky Cabrera. I may be wrong, but it seems as if the yankees are getting ready to trade him considering that they just called up Brett Gardner. Are the Yankees in need of a major league ready arm. Perhaps Yusmierio Petit? A former top prospect for the Mets who was a big piece in the Carlos Delgado deal and has never gotten a fair shot at starting at the big league level. Petit is still only 23 years old and has great breaking stuff. Perhaps Billy Buckner? He was the minor league pitcher of the year for the Royals last year and was traded to dbacks in the offseason. He, also, hasn't had a fair shot at starting at the bigs. He was called up briefly this year and showed great stuff. With a fastball that can get up to 95 and a dynamite curveball. He is also still young as he is only 24 years old. What do you guys think? Is a deal between the two teams possible? (Maybe you guys can take Randy back. lol.)

Orlando Hudson

I have heard that the White Sox may be interested in Orlando Hudson. Do you think that they would be willing to give up pitching prospects Lance Broadway and Kyle McCulough and Alexei Ramirez to acquire Hudson. What would you guys give up to get Hudson? Keep in mind he has won three consecutive gold gloves and is considered one of the games elite offensive second baseman (Behing Chase Utley and Ian Kinsler). So what do you guys think?
