Doc, I have an idea, and maybe its not that great. Churchill was spot on early this year in supposing that Gutierrez may have a pretty low ceiling as a hitter, I believe his sources found Franklin to be a bit of an enigma. This was in the midst of the hysteria over his hot start, (best player in baseball, etc.) enjoyed by many locally. If we are in rebuild, and he is a known, valuable commodity, how about a trade for a disgruntled CF from St. Louis, Colby Rasmus. I wish it were a month ago, I would make that trade and not look back. Perhaps we would have to add a bit, but do you think it feasible to look into that?
