MacPhail: Deal is dead (p. 297), stop posting, go outside

So you just got into an argument and you didn't even know what it was about? It started because someone said that Greene is an above average offensive SS and Theriot is below average. I disagreed and said Greene is not above average. They are both average to below average.

Is there any actual news about Roberts in the past 8 pages or is it just all bickering?

You're wrong about Greene. His away splits and comparisons between Petco and Wrigley show he clearly would be above average offensively. He's already well above average defensively.

Bickering, but worth reading. Probably more so than any news on the Roberts trade would be.

[DeuceBaseman]

Well I'll agree with that. I was a big advocate of signing AROD this offseason and putting him at SS.

 

Isn't this an incredibly redundant statement? Who wouldn't be an "advocate" of such a thing?

 

Well they were saying that Carlos Guillen couldnt play SS anymore cuz he was moved to 1B. And they brought up AROD being moved to 3B and making fun of me saying would I count him as a SS too? And I would!

What do you think?

Bickering. Any news would be added to the thread title, just like it's been done every time something was revealed before.

My guy says that with Peace21 out of the rumor business this entire thread will be nothing but bickering. However, my guy also says that Peace21 may just be posturing to get a better deal on the inside poopl from his guy .

But he's not a SS right now, and hasn't been for years. That doesn't mean he can't still play it, but to consider him an active SS in any capacity is false.

I know, i didnt consider him in my SS rankings, someone else did.

No, I was arguing with the assumption that your statement was correct, which I do not believe it is.

 

For the record, considering his superior defense (not arguable) and the likelihood that statistically he would put up much better power numbers with any team other than the Padres (this is my opinion based on statistical analysis but can be argued), I would put Greene just in front of JJ Hardy on that list, assuming that your list is in order and not just a list of SSs that are better than Greene.

What if it is my opinion that you did indeed consider him in your SS rankings?
