Step away from the pipe.

I think he might have to hail a cab to get away from a pipe that size.

How about Guthrie, Gregg, and Davis for Votto?

Take one down pass it around...

[Roll Tide]

How about Guthrie, Gregg, and Davis for Votto?

It would take Jones & Guthrie to get Votto and maybe some filler.

I don't think that gets the job done. If it would, I would be all over it.

Just think about it. We would be trading our ACE starter, #1 closer, and a possible future all star for a better than avg. 1st baseman.lol

You've gotta make your sarcasm a bit more clear.

Of course, if you're being serious...

1) the O's don't have an ace.

2) Gregg has no business being called a closer, and he's barely serviceable as a MLer.

3) Votto is almost three times as valuable as Jones.

What was wrong with my post?

You wouldn't trade Jones and Guthrie for Votto?

I said I didn't think it would get the job done.

Most of us consider Gregg a salary dump.

I'm trying to figure out the funniest part of this post.

1. Guthrie = ACE

2. Gregg = #1 Closer

3. Davis = Possible All Star

4. Votto = Avg 1st Baseman

Strike 1.

Strike 2.

Machado, Schoop, Bridwell and Matusz

Votto is not going anywhere and if he does you are going to have to overpay for him. Jones and Guthrie is no where near overpaying.

[erb8472]

Machado, Schoop, Bridwell and Matusz

No we are getting closer, but I doubt we will be interested in Votto after we sign Fielder.

Jones, JJ, Machado, and Schoop?
