If you can't trade Walker DFA

Walker. Let him sit at home with his "OBP" with Ben Grieve.

Working out good with Walker, Grieve and Choi.

When OBP is your ONLY stat, you suck as a player, see the 3 above.

 

Still waiting for the guy pre season tried to convince people that Walker was a better hitter than Tejada because of his OBP and 20 HR potential.

Sorry but unless you do something other than OBP you suck.

[sonicdethmonkey0]

yup. todd walker is definitely in the same category as Choi and Grieve. walker's .800+ OPS the last two full seasons as a Cub haven't helped our cause any. his bat goes a cold and he makes a couple errors, suddenly he's the scapegoat for the season.

The biggest msitake was keeping the LH Walker instead of the RH Grudz. Sorry, but most of baseball agrees that Walker sucks.

Maybe in your mind we can get Jason Schin=mdt for him, but I don't think so. Maybe a medium AA prospect but I even doubt that.

Please link to a survey or study or list each of the baseball executives you've spoken with. Otherwise, quit making up evidence to support your opinion. Walker, for the last 2 years, has been a great player for the Cubs. His OBP is great for the 2nd spot. He's struggling after an amazing April, but I'm still glad they have him. I'd bring him back next year as well for a similar contract.

 

You'd prefer if we dumped his .360 OBP and let Neifi hit 2nd again?

lock thread plz, this is a joke

That is really funny. A GREAT player, you really must be kidding. You are the one who should provide links to prove he is a great player.

Read a paper over the last year a see NO ONE will give spit for Walker.

 

A great player, that is one of the funniest things I have ever read.

We should let Neifi play more, after all, he has a gold glove.

Gee, they've had Todd available, but no one jumps. Hopefully, the SF rumor is true and they take him.

The only joke is watching Walker try to play.

you're thinking of all the cubs, especially the pitchers who think it's a good idea to give up multiple grand slams an inning.

I'm glad everyone here knows exactly what is in the minds of GM's around the league.

Teeeeheheheeeeeee. You think you could even TALK to a GM?!?!?! They ride around in FLYING CARS and pee liquid GOLD and converse only in Latin SIGN LANGUAGE! They know ALLLLL!!!

[CUBZ99]

Tonight is probably the wrong night to state an opinion on Todd Walker. That was one of the worst games I have seen a player have in a long time.

[vance_the_cubs_fan]

I really don't think Walker's heart is in it anymore in Chicago. He's had enough of the crap. I think Dusty throwing him under the bus after Friday's game was the final straw for him.

[treebird]

well it's always best to evaluate a player when they're at an extreme high or low

Please tell me who you think the great Todd could play for.

Esp based on 1 game. I like to evaluate all my players on 0/5 nights. That's when I really know how good they are.

I agree, thats why i recommend not discussing Todd Walker tonight. :lol:

About the only team he could. Hopefully, not for long.

I'm just glad you're not GM then. And considering there's not many people I'd fear worse than Hendry running the team, take it for what it's worth.

Bwahahahahaha. Like you know what being a GM means. Being a GM means knowing how good a player will be by seing one swing at age 11.5! Being a GM means sitting in seat 1A on United Flight 1 and STILL not being satisfied! Being a GM means finding the BEST possible guy to train your second basemen in the rarified art of bunt hitting, and then doing ancient rituals involving a ram's SPLEEN in order to insure that your training will be succcessful!
