Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
Reds interested in Lincecum
Cincinnati is apparently interested in San Francisco right-hander Tim Lincecum, but if the Giants insist on Reds outfield prospect Jay Bruce as part of any deal, look for the Reds to back off.
Bruce, 20, hit a combined .319 with 26 homers and 89 RBIs in 133 games at three Minor League stops in 2007. The left-handed hitting Bruce is considered one of the team's cornerstones of the future.

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
So . . .I don't see why teams would want to give up as much, if not more, for Lincecum than they would for Santana.

I politely suggest you stop jumping to conclusions so quickly.

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
But if I had to make the choice between Lincecum in a deal for Cabrera or Lincecum for Bruce, I'd rather take Bruce.
What I was saying is that I don't see why the Reds would offer a package of 3 very young and highly talented players for one, when they already have guys like Homer Bailey and Johnny Cueto in their system.

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
For a team like the Yankees or Red Sox, Santana is the best option.
For a team like the Rays or Reds or Rockies. Then Lincecum is the best option.

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
Lincecum for Votto and Encarnacion would shore up the corners for 5+ years to come. I understand it's The Enchanter and we are trading Cy Young potential but...

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
Yes, I know that uncertainty is involved in all things but I'd bet on Lincecum much more than I'd bet on both Votto and Encarnacion becoming even good major leaguers.

Votto
I'd send Lowry or Sanchez in a deal involving Votto, but not Lincecum, unless we're getting a lot more in return.

Really, though, I saw the double post. I'm sure somebody just pulled it because they needed something to do at work and it doesn't hurt anybody. No biggy, really.

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
Kind of. I get a kick out of the out-of-context posts that remain when I delete a double comment.

Re: Rumors: Lincecum for Jay Bruce
But the Diary is pretty new. So most of the people would only see my comment after you sabotaged it, and would just think I am one weird coockyman. Is "getting a kick out of it" really worth ruining the reputation I have built here over the last couple of months?

The only thing that kept me from doing it was I would have had to delete about half the thread to do so.
