Pirates acquire Wandy Rodriguez...

Question

for 2 minor league pitchers and a minor league hitter. For the Pirates i like the move i think they needed another arm now i think they need another bat. As most know i was the guy who liked the pirates in the offseason then changed my mind when they acquired Burnett. Look at this Pirates rotation

1. McDonald

2.Burnett

3. Rodriguez

4. Bedard

I know its not Madduz,Glavine,Smoltz and Avery but its still pretty good. For the Astros they've done what i said they needed to do in the offseason which was trade Rodriguez,Carlos Lee and Brett Myers and get ready for your move to the A.L. Your thoughts?

Correia isn&#39;t all that bad either he has a winning record

KeyElement · Answer

Correia and Rodriguez vie for the 5 slot, Bedard 3, Karstens slips into 4. A decent move, but they could have used a stick more.

Dith · Answer

i think they need more offense tho they score runs (and i wonder how besides mccutchen)

I agree hammer22, Correia is a legit back end to the rotation. Nice write up Packers.

its all downhill for the pirates once they get swept by the cubs. . . . i been saying that for a week now. . .

KeyElement · Answer

Either physically or mentally, possibly both, Correia is not built for August and September. Maybe the Pirates brain trust knows that.

TurnstoneMoney · Answer

Correia will slowly be pushed into the pen/long relief guy. &#xD;&#xA;And the Buccos are still going to acquire another stick.

Vic-Vega · Answer

They have realized they have over achieved. In other words they have peaked.Agree
