If we can't resign Maggs ...

[Madbilly]

If for some reason when can't resign Maggs before the deadline, how about this trade. I'm just putting this out there.

Maggs
Politte or Cotts or Rauch or Jackson(we could hope)
Mid level prospect

Zito
Dye
Rhodes???

Dye could do a adequate job of replacing Maggs until Reed is ready
Zito would give us a starter
and Rhodes would give us relief in the pen

Then we turn around and do the trade Gammons talked about, but sub Borchard for Reed.
Hell if we could get someone to eat Paulie's contract and get a decent 1st baseman that would be great, or even just some prospects. Put Frank and first, with Gload relieving him and if Rowand keeps hitting as well as he's doing teach him to play first.

Throw Jennings into the Fifth spot and Chacon and Schoeneweis in to the pen

Rotation:
Buehrle
Loaiza
Zito
Garland
Jennings

Pen:
Schoeneweis
Chacon
Wunsch (when healthy)
Adkins
Cotts/Politte/Jackson (who evers left)
Marte
Takatsu

Line up:
Harris
Uribe
Thomas
Lee
Dye
Konerko
Valentin
Crede
Olivo/Alomar

No, no, you have it wrong. Billy Beane tricks other GMs into making stupid deals, not vice-versa.

But KW has already promised that Maggs will be here the rest of the year. Don't you trust KW?

Did you already forget that this is MONEY BALL!?!?
