The most recent list of free agency available players is pretty large and includes a handful of notable names.
Check out the list here. If I were to chose which players I wouldn't mind seeing in Blue they would be:
- David Riske- we need some relief help
- Jamie Walker- more relief help
- Octavio Dotel- a dark horse candidate for comeback player of the year and more relief help
- Carlos Lee- but there may not be any room for him
- Vicente Padilla- I think that he is more than a capable starter
- Ted Lilly- Another middle of the road starter who could do wonders for us
- Miguel Batista- I've always liked him as a starter
- Kerry Wood- but only at a reasonable price since injury is always a possibility
- Dave Weathers- an old pro reliever with a wealth of experience
- Wade Miller- another potential injury in the making, but someone I would be willing to take a flyer on
- Joe Borowski- are you seeing a trend. I think pitching, especially relief, will be key next year
- Guillermo Mota- bring the tall man home
- Orlando Hernandez- I love this Cuban hurler
- Moises Alou- this guy can hit
- Jason Schmidt- this guy can pitch
- Alfonso Soriano- this guy can do it all, except defense. Is there room for him if Either and Kemp stay on?
Anyway, this is my list so far.
