Most likley to acquire? Gonzalez Ramirez or Felix?
I've never liked the idea of getting Felix, a lineup adituon is more needed IMo, we just need a good 4-5 starter ala Rich Harden. Though it seems to be a popular discussion here.
A-Gon is the power bat we need, but we'd have to shift some players around to make it work, though Gonzalez is a FA in 2011 and SD more than likley want to trade him
Hanram fixes our SS problem as could also be the big bat we need. Florida has a history of selling their players
Which is most likley and why? And what would it take to get him?

We stand the best chance of getting Gonzalez. And for god's sake stop calling Ramirez 'Hamram'.

I have an easy answer for you: they are all going to cost a lot. Felix and Hanley will cost the most, Gonzalez will cost less.
If this team acquires a bat through FA then they can use their prospects to splash with one of these three and I'm pretty sure the FO would prefer #1 Felix, #2 Hanley, #3 Gonzalez. That is all.

As if the Yankees and Angels and Dodgers will sit back and let this happen without getting involved. Get real.

I never said we were defitantly going to acquire one mkay?
Just looking at the Hot Stove thread these 3 seem to be the most talked about for making that big splash. Who knows though? we could quite possibly end up with none

You think they would trade Hughes, Joba or Jackson after winning a WS? I don't.

I dont see them being players in the trade market unless something fell into their lap. I would deal Hughes in a trade for King Felix, absolutely.
