The Marlins make a managerial change the logical choice would be Bo Porter. The nationals third base coach. Porter was in the Marlins organization five years three as a Major League coach he knows most of the players. The -- two questions here. One with a -- allow Porter to go to a division rival in the middle of the season. In two. Would Porter be willing to accept the job on an interim basis knowing full well. That Ozzie dean is the ultimate choice for the Marlins that guy that they want most. Well remember last season Porter was willing to go to the Marlins on an interim basis when he was with the Diamondbacks as a coach. M Brian Cashman if you might trade for an ace his response was not Ruben Amaro. Cashman of course was referring to his Phillies counterpart. Who seemingly trades for an ace every six months. The other is one pitcher who would make a lot of sense for the Yankees. Astros lefty Wandy Rodriguez. Signed through 2013. With a club option thirteen million dollars for 2014. The problem with the Rodriguez deal for the Yankees is that the Astros would want top of the rotation value while the Yankees probably would see Rodriguez as a -- Of of the rotation starter in the AL east. The Phillies are doing their due diligence making inquiries on right handed hitters and left handed relievers. Apparel issues though have not changed. For the Phillies to make a significant deal he likely would need to get cash as part of the trade. That's why for example the Padres Ryan Ludwick makes little sense. He's an almost seven million this season and he also needs regular at bats to maintain his swing. Right now the Phillies don't have every day at bats available. But I like the Rockies Ryan Spilborghs making almost two million. Could make more sense for the -- he's the kind of guy they could be looking at closely at the deadline draws near. He started this season sixteen in seven but depending upon how they fare over the next month. Actually could be sellers or of course if they get hot they could be buyers. If the Rockies by they likely would look for a starting pitcher who could eat innings. The Dodgers rookie who wrote twins Kevin Slowey would be likely targets. -- the -- Houston street -- closer would be one ship. Ty Wigginton infielder could be another insult could Aaron Cook as long as he was healthy and productive.
