Z to Fenway for Dice K??????

[waldo7239117]

One potential trading partner for the Cubs if they decide to shop Carlos Zambrano — the Red Sox, possibly for Daisuke Matsuzaka, who is owed only $10 million for each of the next two seasons. …

MLB whispers: How about Matsuzaka for Zambrano? - chicagotribune.com

Thoughts? I say NO and I don't even think twice. This would be a dumb trade for the Cubs. I know Z could be crazy...but we did not see that when he was good at the end of the season. He's younger and I think he will pitch better.

Dice K has been injury prone as of late, has not pitched good and is older. He still is owed 10M a year and that's less but not by a lot.

The Cubs probably could save money, but this is not the trade to do so.

Spoiler

Oh and there's the fact, Z said he will not waive his NTC. C'mon Rogers! This is his BS idea. It has to be.

NO, and won't happen.

No
Dice K has bad control and is massively overpaid. This would just be a trade of "take my bad contract for yours" and Z is better than Dice K

Hell NO.

not to mention Dice-K's flyball tendencies wouldn't play out well in Wrigely.

That's a really good point. I never thought of that.

Not unless they send Ellsbury along with Dice K. which isn't going to happen. One thing to swap bad contracts and save money but it's another to give the Red Sox Z who is far and away the better baseball player.

i heard but i dont give a fuck this shits dead son.

This thread has run it's course. Got Teeth will receive an infraction for his comments, but I do agree w/ him that there's no way the Red Sox trade Ellsbury in this proposed deal. The Red Sox will want a top prospect for him, which I doubt the Cubs or any team will give up for him.

What a joke! Also Phil is too. I wish I knew how he still has a job. All the news he shares is weak or completely untrue. That's a big ?.
