I know that u guys have been struggling with your second basemen and could very possibly become buyers going into the trade deadline. What type of prospects would u be willing to give up to get the ODawg?  Would you do Bo Mills, Jeremy Sowers, and David Huff for Hudson? Who do you think you would be willing to give up? Would you be willing to give up anybody at all? Please share your thoughts....

The Diamondbacks have really been underperforming lately. With this in mind I think we have to make a few changes.

1. Call Up Emilio Bonifacio the speedster prospect has been known to play second base but can also play LF. If we could put him in left field he could hit in the lead off spot and provide a real spark for our offense. Who could forget his lead off double against the dodgers last season on a routine groundball to the center fielder? Not to mention the insane amount of stolen bases he has put up in the minors. (topping out at 61). He could give us the true leadoff hitter we hyave been lacking, and give us a decent replacement for Byrnes while he is out. What are we thinking putting Chris Burke out there? However the organization may already be one step ahead, as I have noticed that he has been getting a lot of time in LF over the last few weeks.

2.Trade Doug Davis I'm sorry, I know he had cancer and all, but he is the weakest link on this team and everybody knows it. What makes it even worse is the fact that we have a top prospect who is a better long-term and short-term option in Max Scherzer. Scherzer had a 2.21 era putting up quite a few impressive starts including against the Chicago Cubs. If we could flip over Double D for maybe a decent pitching prospect and a very young hitting prspect who is a few years away from the majors to a pitching desperate team, that woulld be a successful trade. It could potentially help us for the short term and definitely the long term. PS. If we do not trade davis, then we need to send down scherzer. Spending time in the bullpen ios severely stunting his growth as a pitcher.

3. Be More Agressive On the Basepaths The Arizona diamondbacks are towards the bottom of the league in stolen bases. But its not like we dont have the potentisl to steal them. Chris Young has proven that he could steal bases putting up 27 last season. Stephen Drew, Orlando Hudson, Mark Reynolds, and maybe even CoJack have the speed to steal somewher between 10-15 bases a year. And Justin Upton has unreal speed but for some reason never is sent to steal. Especially when your offense is not producing like ours hasnt, you need to play small ball and move our runners over into scoring position. If we do that then we could start getting a few more runs to support our pitching staff.

4. Trade Odawg Obviously not now, but at the trade deadline, I think that it is imperative to our organization that we trade hudson. It is very likely that we will lose him after the year is over anyways, due to the demands of money that he is making, and bonifacio waiting in the wings so why not get some value out of him. We could probably get a lot of prospects from a team like the White Sox who have voiced a need to make changes and are very weak at second base. We could probably get some high level pitching and hitting prospects this would help us in the long term and would probably not hurt us all that bad in the short term, with bonifacio taking over. Also, for thos who say that we would get a good compensation pick out of him anyway, next year is supposed to be one of the worst draft classes in decades do I dont know how much a compensation pick could help us.

Change around the Batting Order I really dont understand what BoMel has been doing with the batting order lately. Here's what I think our team line-up and pitching rotation should look like for now:

1. Bonifacio LF
2. Hudson 2B
3. Young CF
4. CoJack 1B
5. Reynolds 3B
6. Upton RF
7. Drew SS
8. Snyder C
9. Pitcher

Pitching staff.....

1. Webb
2. Haren
3. Randy
4. Owings
5. Scherzer
