Although not set in stone the Pythons may be starting to look towards the future. In their latest deal the Pythons send Moises Alou, Dustin Hermanson and Tom Glavine to an already talented Christian's team of Florida. In return the Pythons get yet another 2nd round rookie pick along with Mark Mulder. Mulder apparently is being brought in to provide another sort of leadership that Nolan Ryan hasn't been able to provide to there young leaders. It is expected that Mulder, who's 28 will be able to interact more with the Pythons young guns like Josh Johnson, Zach Duke, Chien Ming Wang and Chuck James. "Mulder is a guy we are not banking on to be a savior if not a leader who can provide clubhouse leadership. Mulder's only 28 and yet he has the rep. of being an ace. Most importantly we acquire a 2nd round rookie pick, we love loading talent and this is another opportunity at doing so." This deal gives the Pythons a total of four 2nd round rookie picks and two 3rd round rookie picks in next year. "We advice contenders to contact us as we may have the missing piece to your puzzle!"

Let's hope for the sake of the Pythons that Mulder's recent MRI result (according to ESPN rotator cuff inflammation and irritation) and 6+ ERA are blips on the radar.
Just strengthened your draft day chances at a Soldiers like 1-2-3.... brutal
Young teams can always use picks. Plus, they have the opportunity of sitting on Mulder's 2006 season, if he doesn't turn it around. Everyone kows Mulder has talent. I just can't sit on him.
