Wily mo Pena? give me a break. Im tired of trying to give players that have flopped a second chance... usually that only works if you trade them out of Pittsburgh. Of the teams that need help that we should trade with, Philly,Boston and New York have no prospects that should interest us, but the rockies have a ton of talent in their farm club and their thirdbaseman is 23 with some pop. Plus they could use Marte in their pen. Yet we havent even heard any talk about this.
