Roberts to the Dodgertown?

[Elon Os Fan]

From MLB Trade Rumors:

2:36pm: Joel Sherman of the New York Post has the Dodgers in the lead for Manny. The Red Sox would eat most or all of the $7MM remaining on Ramirez's deal, and then receive a player like Matt Kemp or Andre Ethier. Such a deal would enable the Sox to enter the Mark Teixeira bidding.

Sherman also talked to one NL exec who believes the Dodgers might instead acquire Brian Roberts, pushing Jeff Kent into a utility role and leaving the shortstop problem unresolved.

Either/Kemp, McDonald and Laroche.

Sherrill for Donald.

Call it a day?

Folks on here seem to think Kemp > Roberts.

Probably right. Maybe package Sherrill with Roberts?

What package would be worth Brob?

How does it allow the Sox to enter the Teixeira bidding? Which one of Youkilis, Ortiz and Tex are playing leftfield?

Hopefully Ortiz.

I would do a Roberts for Kemp trade straight up. Kemp is the better player but has some attitude issues that may make it an even deal.

Would absolutely love Kemp, LaRoche, and McDonald for Roberts. If it was Ethier instead of Kemp, I'd rather get another prospect. Would be shocked if that was realistic though.

Youkilis has played in LF before, so this is a ver likely possiblity.

[TyCobb]

I would be so mad if the Red Sox somehow trade Manny to the Dodgers AND get back Kemp. It can't be real can it?

Is McDonald a 2nd baseman?

Also, there's no way the Dodgers will let us rape them like this. BRob for those 3 guys? Are you being serious??????

[Elon Os Fan]

Hopefully Ortiz.

Hahaha. That might be more fun than watching Manny being Manny....

Youkilis in LF sounds laughable. I guess I can't mock it cause I never seen it done, but just looking at Youkilis makes me think he can't play LF.

For Roberts? LaRoche, DeJesus, McDonald, and Elbert

[Mark Carver]

Hopefully Ortiz.

Wow! What a let down from the Ted Williams, Carl Yastrzemski and Jim Rice days... first Manny and now Ortiz?
