And that is reason one, two, and three we need to keep D-Ro. Not because of his offense, but because he can play EVERYWHERE.

I love DeRo. Who doesn't?
But SI.com is reporting that we can get <i>Jake Peavy</i> for DeRo and Marquis.
Marquis!
You gotta pull the trigger on that trade, no questions asked.

I would *love* to get Peavy, trust me. But at the sake of a piece we need? I think our pitching is good enough. Crap, it is more than good enough... with or without Peavy. I just don't want to rely on Fontenot to play 2B because if he shits his pants who is going to wipe up for him...Ray Durham?

Bingo. And if you're getting Milton Bradley, you're going to need another right fielder to play quite a bit, and I'd prefer DeRo there over Fuk/Hoff.
