    Go to Fangraphs.com. Search for a player and there should be a tab for graphs as well as stats, game logs. Pretty cool site.

    Thought you might be interested in an Alexei article. It's from a fantasy website, but nonetheless analyzes Ramirez based on his numbers.

    Hey Mat the Cat, nothing personal about the banter I hope. Its just debate dude, and you can call me Pat. I am not trying to be a foe to anyone, but think it a little disingenious to say that Cano or Cabrera would never be considered in addition to all the excellent prospect on NY.

    I linked the Halladay articles with his direct quotes to my piece - I am not making it up or lying. IF TOR is talking trades then NY ought to be involved. In the future TOR could face Roy with LA while paying in the WSC - would that be better?

    It is all about what team benefits TOR more with talent vs. pay check - LA or NY? Its a valid article, and I didnt say I thought Cano should be traded, I said he could be if NY wanted to but with CC a FA this offseason they may not care enough to do it.

    The SP is not the issue. They fixed most of the problem already and still are incomplete because of injuries.
