Rockies showcasing Atkins
The Denver Post says the Rockies will be showcasing Garret Atkins this week, in hopes of generating trade interest. So, simple question fellow McCovenitss: are we interested? What would be the relative advantages/disadvantages to adding him to the team? Who would you be willing to trade to get him? Perhaps more important, what do you think the Rockies are looking for in return (i.e., how highly do they regard him)?
Pablo seems pretty decent at 3B, and Atkins is struggling this year. Yet perhaps this is an opportunity to "buy low."

He’s pretty bad, but he does seem like an inevitable Sabean target, doesn’t he?
Wouldn’t mind seeing him in Rich Aurilia’s spot.

IT’S A TRAP!
Randy Winn is going to catch that. And he'll do it real classy-like too.

I’d rather have Dante Bichette
"he walked 18; new league record! Struck out 18, another new league record! He also hit the sportswriter, the PA announcer, the bull mascot twice..."

He could probably field better than Atkins.

Couldn't diet as well, though.
