Rukkakkes interested in Burke?
« on: October 26, 2006, 03:30:00 pm »
 The Rockies have interest in Chris Burke of the Astros for center field. writes SI's Jon Heyman.

Garret Atkins, anyone?
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

Hey, I'd be cool with Ian Stewart.

Either one of those two! Do that deal in a heartbeat.  But yes, Francis is the bigger prize.  Doubtful that they'd be willing to let him go though.

In fact, looking at the Rockies front page, Atkins is their team average leaders, and Francis is their team wins leader.  Good luck.

Atkins > Huff or Ensberg.  You would think they would have to throw in some pitching like Buchholz but still sounds good.  Search for future 2Bman would have to begin rather quickly.
