Poor splits. And even his Coors field numbers are just a little better than ok.

But Bud just filed for over 10 million.

But Bud just filed for over 10 million.

Yeah, I was thinking that trading Bud is the obvious move. I think Bud will be more productive next year than a Coor-less Blackmon, but maybe the value (cost to production ratio) would be significantly better with Blackmon? Hmmm. I think I would still rather pay Bud if the O's can't get a better OF for him.

I would think Bud or Gonzo would get that done. Put Ubaldo back in the rotation (even if he's not a great pitcher, for the money he's getting, he belongs there). Put McFarland, Webb, or Garcia back in the pen.

I don't see how he helps us. We already have guys who can give us 1-2 WAR and those splits are ugly.

I don't see a match either, he doesn't give us anything we don't already have.

Charlie Blackmon had one amazing month last year, then a big load of nothing special.

[O-The-Memories]

Just another guy with a false descriptor as a last name.

[SteveO]

Not sure why we would give up anything of value for this guy looking at his splits. Yet another creation of Coors field. I'd rather keep whatever we would trade to get him and Lough thank you

I'd be willing to part with Tillman if they made Dickerson available.

...I'd also do Norris for Stubbs in a heartbeat.

You can't lump these two together. Gonzo is cheaper, under control for more years, and is the better SP.

You would give up Tillman for Blackmon?

He said he'd be willing to part with Tillman for Dickerson, no mention of Blackmon in his post.

His numbers away from Coors are not that great. If they take Ubaldo back and an average minor leaguer I'd do it. It would be worth it to get him off the payroll. He was 56-45 in Colorado and pitched to a 3.66 ERA, 3 shutouts and 8 complete games. It was 2010 when he was 19-8, pitched to a 2.88 ERA and made the All Star team. They might take him back. Stranger things have happened.
