How about Seattle?

They’re rumored in on Edwin Jackson and have really been named in a large amount of trade/free agent rumors this offseason.

withrow is josh beckett 2.0

there is no way the dodgers give up withrow to the marlins so the marlins will have josh beckett 2.0

I have never heard that comparison. I’m a Dodgers fan but haven’t read that anywhere.

I read

Sickels site, Baseball Prospectis and the BA chats over at ESPN, and never once have I read that comparison. Don’t get me wrong, I hope that you are right, but I think we would be hearing his name more if it was the case.

withrow will probably become a top 25 prospect in mlb by next year,,,

the reason we havent heard his name so much is cause hes only thrown about 100 innings… once he gets some more time in he will be all over top 25 lists…

who have they over at BA BP comapred him to?

Speaking of Logan Morrison...

…might we see him in RF? MLB Fantasy Prospects thinks it’s a possibility. In case y’all are interested, Logan comes in at #14 on MLBFP’s Top 25 for 2010 and Beyond.
