Ryan Church (CF)

Kelly Johnson (2B)

Clint Nageotte (former prospect who I think could make it as a reliver)

Wilson Betemit (3B if no ARam)

Marcus Giles (another 2B possibility)

Gavin Floyd (still young, why not?)

Pat Burrell

JD Drew (is possible)

Matt Diaz (meh)

Chris Young (the second AZ says he's available)

Carlos Quentin/Conor Jackson (if AZ does one of them instead of Young)

Chirs Snyder (catcher that can hit)

Scott Hairston (hmm)

Iwamura (Japanese 2B that could be similar to Giles)

Matsazuka

Other Japenese pitcher I can't remember (Igawa?)

Austin Kearns

 

If even one of these guys somehow end up on this team I think I'd be the happiest man alive. I really don't see why we haven't gone after Church and Burrell like...hardcore by now.

 

And if the Braves feel like Kelly Johnson just doesn't fit, fine with me. The guy has talent, should be able to handle 2B, and has a nice little track record in the minors.

For being loaded, how in the heck did you type everything on that page perfectly?? My sentences tend to look something like " I Thynk da Cobbs shood sygn MotsooZakka and Soryano" when I get hammered so I try to stay away from the site on those sauced up nights

Kelly Johnson's an outfielder rather than a second baseman, and Arizona intends to go with a 2007 outfield of Byrnes/Young/Quentin and Conor Jackson at first base, so I doubt any of the 3 rookies will be available.

Or the late night drunk calls.

He actually played SS for the first four years of his minor league career.

Which likely makes Scott Hairston available. But, I'm not really sure he's anymore than a utility player at this point.

I think Scott Hairston will hit well. The question is, where can he play defensively. He's awful at second, and I don't know how well he plays the outfield.

I'd imagine he could be quite an excellent 4th OF in 2007 while continuing to learn how to transition to the OF from 2b (if indeed defense is an issue). Seems as though the DBacks have soured on him combined with the fact that they have amazing young OF talent that makes him quite expendable. Good news is that hes destroyed the minors in his entire career, bad news is that the last three of those have been AAA. We should be able to get him for one of our stalled arms.

it must be something abot matzukawhatever

 

he leads us cubs fans to drink... thats at least five i've seen

 

most likely it means that he will lead us to drink after he signs for 5/75 and goes on the DL

 

Nah, I just don't have class on Fridays and a buddy of mine came in from out of town. My sobriety (or lack thereof) was out of my hands tonight...

 

On a side note, I type really well when I've been drinking. Granted, it takes a whole lot longer, but it still usually comes out fairly nice.

Kelly Johnson is the guy the Braves are talking about replacing Giles with.

 

I don't think its good news for me.

 

And I really like how that list turned out considering I was drunk. It seriously took like half an hour, but hard work usually pays off.

Question:

 

If you took the time and spent the money to get a good buzz on, why are you spending time here? Go out with some buddies. Meet a member of the opposite sex (or the same sex if so inclined). Start a fight.
