    He's still a fully capable baller but he's still pretty old and owed lots of mula

    What, you prefer our disabled and winless batting practice pitcher who can't get anyone out and doesn't give a fuck about baseball anymore??

    Even if we did get him he would probably get hurt or pitch like shit.

    Wishful thinking but that'd a pretty bad ass line-up to choose from in a short series.

    If we're in the race in July I don't think it's too wishful. These guys will get anyone.

    I would assume a contract like his for a player like him has a no trade clause. Last year, there was talk of him coming here after he was put on waivers, but he doesn't want to play in Los Angeles. If he has that clause, they can't force him to play here.

    I thought it was because they wanted too much?

    Meaning if he approved the trade it'd be assurance he's on board.

    That could be the reason too. But I'm pretty sure he's adamant about not playing in Los Angeles.

    Anything can happen, but if he doesn't want to be here, I see no point. He's a great player, but you wonder how his performance will be if he's unhappy here.
