We have to start thinking about these prospects as chips and nothing else, particularly pitchers.

I was thinking about this earlier as well. Initially when thinking about trading Ventura I wasn't on board, but I think I have come around and would support it. I mean who knows when he would be ready and even how good he will really be. After hearing the past few years about all our pitchers and now seeing they haven't lived up to expectations for the most part, I am more than willing to see him go if it means improving our ML roster tomorrow. I still think Myers is untouchable. He is much easier to project than a starting pitcher who is still two years away. Also, Myers fits a need on the roster right away. Adding Garza and getting a pitcher in FA instantly makes us a contender. It seems like there will be a lot of second tier pitchers available after this season that are the type of guy we can afford to pay and still get a solid pitcher.
