Mike Gonzalez to Red Sox or Yanks?

[Weirdos19]

He's rumored to be going to either of these two clubs.

 

 

What will it take for us to get him? He would be a great LHRP for this year and a possible closer for the future. Heck, maybe even a closer this year.

 

We could offer an outfielder and a reliever, knowing that we'd be getting a reliever of our own.

 

Jenks and Sarfate for Gonzalez?

 

That would be an outstanding pen.

I would try Mench before Jenkins then add more if necessary.

[TooLiveBrew]

I'd be willing to bet the Bucs would want a MLB-ready player/pitcher in addition to Mench/Jenks. My offers, in order, would be adding one of TBow, Aquino, or Capellan.

 

I do have to say I'd be uneasy about trading two guys to an interdivisional rival, though. Buuuuuuttt, with that arm in return, I could get over it.

 

If the Pirates wanted a younger arm/player, Sarfate is a decent choice, but so are Aquino (28 ) & Capellan (25), who have both proved ready for MLB

[Weirdos19]

Obviously, nobody is as impressed with Gonzalez as I am.

 

Not too many dominant lefty relievers out there. And he is definately one.

[Crewin06]

Yeah, unless we are talking Weeks, Gallardo, Braun, or Fielder, I don't think the Pirates are picking up the phone.

 

The Gonzalez is up for arbitration and want to parlay a really good relief pitcher for a good, cheap, young bat.

 

One rumor a while ago was Gonzalez to Atlanta for Adam Laroche.

 

I think that is the type of deal that needs to be done for anyone to land him.
