Womack Trade Talk

Title Track

From the New York Post:

Tony Womack can be traded without his consent beginning today. Before that, he had a say in any potential trade because he was a free agent in the first year of a new contract.

Reportedly, Womack has been linked to San Diego. GM Brian Cashman wouldn't comment on trade talks, other than to say he's always looking for ways to improve the club.

Womack has a DT line of .243/.288/.274 and an EqA of .211. For his career, Womack's DT line is .263/.307/.346 and his career EqA is .243. In other words, he's not even as good as Geoff Blum. I don't understand this at all. Hopefully, it's as untrue as it is stupid. I'd probably give them Nevin, though.

Zito Trade Talk

I ask, "Why bother?"
