Remaining MLB Free Agents

[Jon_Vilma]

1. Roger Clemens - Best Pitcher in the MLB when he's on his game.2. Andy Pettitte - Better than every pitcher aside from Clemens this offseason (Schmidt & Zito included)3. Barry Zito - A great pitcher by the numbers, but an overthinker without dominating stuff.4. Shea Hillenbrand - A quality first baseman. Nothing special, just everything solid.5. Jeff Suppan - Makes a great 5th starter in your rotation.6. Barry Bonds - Can still slug it, but with all the baggage that comes with him, who wants him?7. Aubrey Huff - Roll player who will be nice batting 8th and making some plays in the field.8. Jeff Weaver - He's got great stuff, but he gives up a lot of runs. If the right pitching coach comes...9. Eric Gagne - He had a couple great years but got injured. If his health returns he's a steal.10. Rod Barajas - He doesn't bring much to the table as far as batting, but he can Catch anything a pitcher has with no problems.

Id put Mark Mulder, Ronnie Belliard, and maybe a reliever like Darren Oliver or Octavio Dotel in there, Other then that it's pretty damn picked out. The trade market is where most of the noise is going to be made IMO.

put Octavio Dotel ahead of Gagne...he can Close, and has less health problems. He pitched the end of the year with the Yankees, and looked fine.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Pettite now > Maddux now</div>id have to disagree with thatyou saw what Maddux did for the Dodgers at the end of the year, yeah you did, dodgers were almost out of playoffs it seemed, and he gave them a HUGE pushid rather have peavy-young-maddux, over peavy-young-pettite
