ElNik2013 Old-Timey Member Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 They need to go further then that. Even if you deal those 2 guys for specs look at how bad next years rotation is going to be (with the assumption Johnson gets traded or bolts thru free agency). Dickey - One year older and is he even a legit frontline pitcher in this division and ballpark? Morrow - Although uber talented really doesnt do both healthy and good in the same season. Ricky - Basically a write off at this point and most likely gets sent to another team who thinks they can fix him. Happ - Serviceable but nothing more then a #4-5 at this point Hutchison - Intriging but coming off TJ surgery and who knows how we will perform next season Drabek - 2 TJ's with massive control issues....hes basically a lost cause at this point AA needs to make a decision this season to go further all in and trade whats left of our farm or go the other direction and trade vets like Bautista, Dickey, Buerhle, Oliver and possibly even Janssen and rebuild again. This season looks bad, but next season could actually be worse without some impactfull additions because this roster is ageing fast and the rotation looks brutal going forward as currently constructed. I agree with you, but JJ is gone anyway so there's no point in keeping him. The idea of trading Buehrle is more a pipedream than anything else given his contract. I would think they'll have to go out and sign a pitcher in FA. I don't think they're going to give up on this core and go for a rebuild so I think they'll go for the retool, they said it was a 3 year window they were looking at whether we agree with it or not.
