Rumor: Lieber for Rios - Page 2

Dobbs as a RF would be laughable.

I am not a big fan of having the idea of platooning Werth and Dobbs. I would actually rather have Michael Bourn in CF, and have Victorino stay in right over that platoon. Dobbs is having a great spring, and is almost a lock to make the team over either Chris Coste or Karim Garcia.

LMAO Rios for Lieber is worse for us then Rios for Meyer or Hamels is for you. A ****ty pitcher for a guy who will most likely hit 100+ RBI's and 30 Homers at something like 25 years old. hahahahahaha sorry but NO. Rios would have had 100 RBI's last year in fact if not for his injury. JP already laughed at that proposal in an article and then proceeded to pretty much call Leiber a crap pitcher so good luck with that.

I guess we'll see. Lieber is not a crap pitcher in my opinion, because he does well when it counts and that's down the stretch. Lieber is a solid #3 or #4 starter.

Lieber is crap IMO, he is never in shape and he doesn't pitch well until it doesn't matter. The games in April count just as much as the games in August or September. Rios is a budding star and if I could trade Lieber and Rowand for him I would.

The Jays don't want Rowand though, as well as Lieber. The Phillies would have to take a big contract off their hands.
