Got a link? I was wondering if Jackson might be included, and Sardinas isn't a bad inclusion either. I do hope they're eating some salary if we're including those three.

Well he did say combo. So it would be a pick two of those three situation.

No link, just perusing some other boards and basing it off what they said, not sure where they got their info

Might not be all 3, just 2 of the 3, but some combo of the 3 or maybe all 3, its pretty close to what I assumed anyway

Big Nick Williams fan, but I can see the reason he's included, LuJax as well (especially if we know something the Brewers don't)

I've heard some rumbling about Williams having some character issues. I've also heard from others that it is overblown.

I cannot help it guys...I have to laugh at this.

If I were JD, I would offer them Andrus and Holland for Blackmon and Tulo and hope Profar can step in for once if Tulo goes down. What do you guys think of that for a blockbuster trade with the Rockies?

Oh ESPN posters...

Same, some of it stems from his inability or unwillingness to work on his plate discipline

I like Williams' upside. Jackson really stalled out after his promotion, so I don't know if would be so sad to see him go now.

Some intriguing filler on the 40 man roster as well: Choice, Tepesch, Martinez, Deshields, Telis, Scheppers, Ross etc...

Many of them are talented guys that many here are tired of anyway

I'm not advocating anyone be traded, but I know I'd give up both Tepesch and Ross to keep LuJax

I would trade Ross in a heartbeat.

Talk on the MLB trade rumors comments mentions Odor a lot, but talk on boards is about as bad of a place to find out anything like that as there is.

I always liked him, he's legitimately a guy we screwed over with the starter... bullpen... starter... bullpen... starter routine, should've left him as a starter until it was obvious he couldn't do it, he forgot how to pitch (as a starter) when he was in the bullpen

There's never been a JD deal that I've had much of a problem with. That would change if Odor is involved in getting Gallardo.

I agree. I would not be happy at all. I don't see that happening. I'm sure they're Brewer fans wanting him.

I agree. I worry he's damaged goods mentally now.

I love how about 75% of Milwaukee posters on ESPN are advocating getting Fielder in return for Gallardo b/c "they don't have a 1B"

If only Melvin was that dumb, I'd do that deal in a heartbeat, throw in Sardi just as a favor and eat the 30 million that Detroit was paying us

I think JD has made his share of suspect deals over the years.
