Considering Lou's love for going lefty vs. lefty and our two "LOOGYs" are better against righties than lefties...I think he'd fit nice into our pen.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Considering we could probably trade Marquis and either clear all his salaray or clear half his salary and get a decent prospect in return, I don't think this is a good deal. There's plenty of lefty specialists out there to be had.
You guys have to realize that there are plenty of teams that will be happy to take Marquis off of our hands, especially after the way CCs contract is going to drive up the price of every other free agent starter.
