Went 6 ip 3 h 1 er 1 bb 9 so

The run came on a HR. The walk was intentional. None of Hellickson's other 9 walks on the season are intentional, so in 116 innings, he's struck out 118 and walked 9.

whether it is in the next couple days or this winter, I think we should trade him

His value won’t get much higher and he may not have room in the rotation here. I wonder if the Marlins would trade Dan Uggla for him.

Do you want Uggla to play RF?

The Fish have plenty of pitching by the way. I could see the Rays make a trade to a team that has a solid group of OF prospects and not enough spot for them. But, before we give up on our RF, i would like to see how Ruggiano, Pedroza, Royster, Jennings, Salam, and Matulia turn out. But, that’s just me.

no he would play 2B and the deal would be in the winter because they aren't going to trade him now

Aki is great defensively and isn’t horrible at the plate but that would be a nice upgrade if we can’t get a real solid OF.

Lord

Uggla probably gives up as much on defense as he gets on offense. OK, maybe not that bad, but without going to the metrics, he’s always looked like a historically bad infielder to me. His defense makes Brendan Harris look like Rey Ordonez.

Vogt early, Vogt often.

Kaz, Shields, Price, Garza, Davis, Hellickson

someone is going to have go eventually. That list doesn’t even include Jackson, Sonny, Niemann, Talbot

Start Hellickson off in the pen

If there isnt room at the big league level for him in 2010. When Kazmir leaves for free agency, a spot in rotation would open up.

If he leaves. I thought Kaz signed an extension.

I could see a guy like Garza being dealt Or Kaz unless he signs a long extension

Now, I see Garza being dealt in the future, ‘08,09. See if Hell-boy, Barnese, Cobb develop. I completely see Jake McGee becoming a set-up, closer type guy.

These guys are fine pitching prospects

Garza is an above average MLB pitcher in the Rays control for 6 seasons.

There is no way they trade Garza in the next couple of years

He probably has the best stuff in the rotation, and he is just putting it all together.
