I’ve been getting a lot of rumors flying at me about the (rumored) trade of Ironpig’s infielder of Luis Maza to the Astro’s organization.
Just a theory myself and Noise Nation member Dean B. have been discussing is that it could be part of a bigger deal that would bring Roy Oswalt to the Phillies.
Look at it this way…
Roy Oswalt has made it no secret he wants out of Houston. He plays hard regardless but Houston’s team has collapsed since its glory days a few years back.
The Phillies are in dire need of an additional high level starter. Trading Cliff Lee is high on the list of regrets of Phillie fans.
Could it happen? Who knows. There is no news out there on the Maza trade and the Phillies are notoriously secretive about trade talks. Just this winter the organization released that they would not pursue Roy Halladay only to announce a trade days later.
It might happen, it might be a heat induced delusion on my part (AC died yesterday) but it would certainly be a plus for the Phillies rotation if it did happen.
Thoughts?
