Gil Meche straight up for Brandon Inge

That was proposed by the Mariners.

DD declined.

Im torn, I really like Inge, he can hit whenever hes not catching and he has one of the strongest arms I've ever seen (Baseball America ranked him as the third, but he has pin point accuracy, he one hopped one from the left center wall in Commerica to the catcher).

But the big thing is, hes hitting over .300 and he has 9 HR (.374 OBP, .865 OPS). He plays flawless 3B, can catch (even if he cant hit in games he catch's, odd study), is better than average in all three OF positions and if needed, could play middle infield.

Never thought Id see the day that Brandon Inge was in trade talk, and I didn't want to give him up.....
