Dusty talks about youth movement

[frostwyrm]

To be fair Dusty did mention that he sees reports on players, unfortunately the rest of his comment makes it plain that he doesn't put any stock in them. May as well save some trees and stop printing scouting reports that will only end up in Dusty's circular file.

He probably reads them for entertainment the way most people read the comics.

They could be printed on toilet paper, that way Dusty could get some use out of them.

I know Bobby Knight and sir...Dusty is no Bobby Knight.

"The bigger question," Baker said, "is who is left to call up?"

 

Well, what about these numbers, Dusty? Is there merit in these numbers?

 

.289/.372/.556 21 HRs 42BB/98SO in 342 Triple A at bats

 

Those would be the numbers of Michael Restovich who is not even on the 40 man roster anymore.

 

Seems like he could platoon with Jacque in RF while the Murton/Pagan platoon could be kept in LF. Oh and I guess it is possible to not start Pierre occasionally moving Pagan to CF for a game here and there for the remainder of the season.

 

Way too many K's. Dusty and Jim like guys who put the ball in play.

 

I don't know if you were just pointing out fact as you see it, or if you were defending the mentality, but who cares about how much he k's? Fewer GIDP. His OBP is .083 above his avg, and that is a very good thing, especially considering the power he's shown.

 

This is maddening.

Probably.

 

Ute....what the heck is a ute?

 

 

I'm sorry, the two youths :wink:

Bobby Knight wipes his ass on scouting reports?

MacPhail probably hears the complaining of the fanbase as being indicative of a fanbase upset about a losing season, and not a failed direction.

 

Very, very well said!

 

Well they are working hard....workin weekends, gettin things done.

And then he shows the players what it looks like after he's done because that's what they've been playing like.

Was in 2003 or 2004 when Baker said "Are you here to develop or are you here to win"?

I don't remember, maybe it was when the great Lenny Harris was on the team or right after they made the big impact Perez signing.
