The dead of Summer

Jeremy Foster filled in for Dave Burns on the 620 SportsLine

AJ Hinch stated the goal for the Diamondbacks was to get back to the .500 mark. Jeremy Foster does not think they have a chance to meet that objective. Foster wants to see the D-backs move Doug Davis, Jon Garland, and Chad Qualls to get some young talent and build towards next year. He sees the Mets, Phillies, Cubs, Cardinals, Rangers, and Angels as possible trade partners.

Richard Justice, MLB Columnist for the Houston Chronicle checked to give us the latest on the trade deadline. He doesn’t see Roy Halladay getting moved unless the Blue Jays lower their demands.

Diana Taurasi allegedly got an extreme DUI and she received a two game suspension. Foster thinks the punishment was fair, but Taurasi needs to prove she is truly sorry by not repeating her mistake.

The Phoenix Suns and Steve Nash are getting closer to working out a two year contract extension to keep him in the purple and orange. Nash’s numbers have gone down the past couple of seasons, but Jeremy thinks it is very important to keep the Suns leader around. An older Nash is better than most point guards in the league.

Terrell Suggs joined Gambo & Ash this afternoon and said that Karlos Dansby needs to look at himself as a business. Jeremy feels that it is unfair to ask Dansby to take less money to stay with the Cardinals; it’s up to Karlos to look out for his best interests.

With Derrick Mason’s surprise retirement Foster wonders if the Ravens will take a serious run at Anquan Boldin. With the development of Steve Breaston and Jeremy Urban, Jeremy thinks the Cardinals should seriously consider moving Q for a couple draft picks.
