Chows add 2nd Ramirez - Look to Make More Moves

Illinois Times - The Chows now have an all Ramirez left side of the infield. A-Ram comes to Illinois via Springfield and will add some power to the middle of the order. "We need to score more runs and add some pop. When healthy, A-Ram is a presence in the middle of the order. Anytime you can get someone like this without giving up one of your key cogs, you have to give it a shot."

Illinois traded Ryan Raburn and a 7th to get A-Ram.

Chows on the Block

The Chows look to make a few more moves before the season starts.

Outfielders for Sale: Take your pick - Left, Right or Center. Willingham has a fantastic OPS this season and can solidify an lineup. Fukudome is a solid on-base RF and figures to be a 2 with a negative arm again. Pagan can man CF for you and be a real asset against RHPs.

Prado : Not much to say here - one of the top 2B cards in the deck. Can also play some 3B for you. Sherlag still believes in Beckham making Prado someone the Chows might be willing to deal.

Swing Man - Playoff Starter: Duensing can do it all, start for you, be a big innings eater in the bullpen. His ERA and WHIP are outstanding. Look at the low HR he gives up.

Bullpen Arms: McClellan came into his own this year and can be a great 8th inning guy for you. O'Flaherty can help you neutralize those TGE bats.

Pudge: A decent amount of ABs and OK production against LHP

Figgins: Bounceback potential here

We are looking for primarily players but wouldn't mind making room for one more player on the roster.
