Assuming that the Jackson/Rzepczynski/Dotel for Rasmus deal is done,at year's end,STL will have a lefty reliever/draft pick for Colby Rasmus
That is exactly what happened, but it looks like they had a much better offer on the table.Agreed. Guess the St. Louis brass had to make LaRussa happy.
Rasmus is a popular trade target. ESPN's Buster Olney tweets that the Rays offered one of Jeff Niemann, Wade Davis, and Alex Cobb, and the young center fielder is very much available. The Indians have interest as well.
I would have taken any of the three the Rays offered over Jackson. If I'm STL I would have done the deal as soon as they said they were willing to give me Alex Cobb.
