Proposed trade that is still being discussed:
CWS would send RHP Jon Garland to Astros
for
CF Willy Taveras
RHP Taylor Buchholz
RHP Jason Hirsh
IMO, Garland is a proven MLB #2 rotation pitcher (durable, won 18 games last year) but I hate to give up 3 guys, esp. AAA Pitcher of Year Hirsh. But in today's market that is the price of doing business. My biggest question is who plays CF (Burke, Lane, Josh Anderson, maybe Ryan Church in trade, etc.). That is a gaping hole & w/ Carlos Lee in LF, you better have a speedy CF.
Thoughts?
