Mike: Jeff, you keep talking about the Cards aquiring Michael Young from the Rangers. Question from Dallas is what would you be willing to give up for him? It's going to take a lot more than a handfull of beans to get the face of the franchise. More percisely what good young pictching would the Cards be willing to give up?
Jeff Gordon: Good question. If I'm Texas, I'd insist on McClellan as part of the package. And Garcia, the rare lefty with big ponttial. And that might be a deal breaker. The Rangers are going to shrug at Duncan/Reyes/Thompson/Boggs/so on and so forth.
Fyten: How is Philip McRae different from Charles Linglet. From the descriptions I've read, they seem to be similar players.
Jeff Gordon: Linglet took a long time to develop, but he is now a player capble, I think, of filling a role in St. Louis. McRae is early in the process. If he improves his skating and starts making more plays in the OHL, he could develop more quickly. It's tough to project his upside, but suffice to say he could have piled up points in college had he gone that way.
ronjon: What steven said was dead on about the fans, who cares if the guy is so so in pass blocking, he is still allowed to say that most fans in that lower bowl would be better off watching the game at home and giving up those season tickets to the next generation.
Jeff Gordon: I side with the fans on this one. Why should I spend money on gas, parking and comically overpriced concessions to watch a 3-13 team when better games are on the big screen at home?

Thanks for all the questions! Catch you next time!
