Now 23 year-old Florida 1B Logan Morrison as the centerpiece in a Gavin Floyd trade is an entirely different story. But I still go back to the rumored Ozzie-for- Logan Morrison trade.

Florida has its manager on a 1-year contract for 2011. Then they sign Guillen for 2012 after the Sox don’t pick up their 2012 option on Guillen. Florida gets Guillen for the opening of their new stadium in 2012 without losing Morrison.

But what if the Sox exercise their 2012 option on Guillen right now. If Florida believes the the only way they can have Guillen for the 2012 season is to trade Morrison, would they? Just a thought.

those numbers are ugly. B-R shows a 58 tOPS+ and a 70 sOPS+ for fowler’s road games and a .384 BABIP for fowler’s home games. hell, brian anderson would have been a hell of a hitter with a .384 BABIP. and stewart’s road splits are .239/.317/.454. I wouldn’t give Floyd for those two.

Floyd’s 2010 WAR of 4.3 tied him with David Price for 21st among all MLB starting pitchers and was better than Matt Cain.

Considering that the 28 year-old Floyd is under team control for 3 years at $5M, $7M and $9.5M, I would expect fewer questions in the players received. Also, I imagine that trying to project any Rockies’ player offensive performance outside of Coors Field is always challenging.
