Nobody lookin out for nobody
Maybe we should try and help somebody or be somebody
Instead of being somebody that makes the news
So everybody can tweet about it
And then they start to R.I.P. about it
And four weeks later nobody even speaks about it.

I was thinking about the rest of this off-season and the possibilities we have. Couldn't help but draw up a couple more deals in my mind to round up our off-season.
-Trade Carlos Quentin to the Marlins for Dan Haren - Haren wants to play in socal, Marlins could use a corner OF.
-Trade Wil Myers and prospects to Phillies for Cole Hamels - This one is a no brainer for me... maybe its just me. I'm not crazy high on Wil Myers, especially playing center field in Petco.
-Sign Takashi Toritani - I'm just not overly excited about Amarista and Barmes at SS...
Our line up could look something like...
1. Takashi Toritani - SS L
2. Cameron Maybin/Will Venable - CF
3. Matt Kemp - RF R
4. Justin Upton - LF R
5. Derek Norris - C R
6. Yonder Alonso - 1B L
7. Jedd Gyorko - 2B R
8. Willie Middlebrook 3B R
Our rotation could look something like..
1. Cole Hamels LHP
2. Tyson Ross RHP
3. Andrew Cashner RHP
4. Ian Kennedy RHP
5. Dan Haren RHP

Also hearing Big game James Shields being linked to us... somewhere in the ballpark of 5 for 100 mil.. not excited about that at all.

No on Shields.
I don't think Hamels is as much of a no brainer if Myers is involved but I wouldn't hate that.

Now hearing Hamels and Shields a "remote possibility" at this point. And that our opening day roster could very well be set at this point. There is going to be some interesting OF play this year, and who leads off? Amarista?
With the rotation headline by Cashner, Ross, Kennedy and whoever wins the 4 & 5 between Morrow, Erlin, and Despaigne.

I heard Bud hinted Myers may lead off.

Don't get me wrong, with the current roster I'd likely bat Norris #1, I just don't think it's fair to judge Myers on his MLB numbers at this juncture.
There's a reason he's been a hot trade commodity.

Hearing Phillies want two premium talent in return for Hamels. Rangers now in with Padres, Red Sox, and Cardinals.
Phillies want Austin Hedges and Wil Myers
