I'd put together a package and see if we couldn't get Carl Crawford out of Tampa Bay. That team isn't going to win until they get some pitching.

Tampa Bay would probably want Brandon Backe back, along with Chris Burke, Luke Scott, Wandy Rodriguez, Fernando Nieve, and Ezequiel Astacio all for Carl Crawford.

Carl Crawford is an all star, young, affordable money wise for Devil Rays.

Sure, I would love to have the Houston native playing for his hometown team but it would cost an arm and leg, if not half our prospects / good players involved in trade just to tempt Tampa Bay to do the trade.

I don't think it is realistic.
