  1. give the entire pitching staff career years and let the mediocre offense come up with a timely hit whenever it's needed and we, too, can win the world series! these types of posts are getting old.
  2. no, that's boras talking. if you're adding this, then you're also adding beltran's 10/200 request from last year.
  3. what about the days mauer is going to DH? OF or bench for white?
  4. And people say Cubs fans overrate their own players ... please, provide us with a list of players you'd trade zambrano for straight up. it can't be that large.
  5. we can't even trade perez right now! what a moron.
  6. Why Finley? Was he the bane of the '84 playoffs? uhh, take a look at what he did in 04
  7. I disagree - I think the three years is pretty **** bad. If it was, say, 3 years, $7 million, it would be better. Who in the hell would take Jacque Jones off our hands at 5+ million per year? nobody. i'd rather this be 1 year/16 million.
  8. wrong. he was offered arbitration, which he declined. it was going to cost a draft pick no matter when we signed him.
  9. Even though the Red Sox ended the curse, I just decided to root for them again. eww the red sox are awful for baseball, i'd root for the yankees before them
  10. well, this was some of the worst possible news. go oakland in 06, anyone?
  11. rob mackowiak steve finley
  12. nah, just twice in the same season. i thought i once heard it was twice in a week, but that's not the case.
  13. Toronto denies ever offering it. And Toronto is: 1. In another country 2. About as far away from San Diego as you can get 3. American League 4. In a division with the Yankees and Red Sox maybe they deny it (though lots of teams do that after losing out on a free agent, especially because anyone else that wants to sign could ask for that money), but i don't see what anything else you said has to do with his comment that "[he] couldn't know" about anything regarding giles.
  14. signing giles would be admitting that there's something to the statistic of on-base percentage. hendry will never do that, he hates OBP, and will go out of his way to avoid players who have it. Who wouldn't want Giles? But I think its unfair to criticize Hendry for not signing Giles. Giles had no intentions of leaving the West Coast. He turned down bigger money elsewhere to stay in SD. according to who? Ummm..maybe Giles? Giles signed for 3/30 to stay in SD. Didn't Toronto offer him some big money? I know LA was in on him, but they are also a West Coast team. Giles has made no secret over the years as to his preference for playing on the West Coast. This isn't news. ummmm......are you in contact with him? because there was nothing out of the giles camp to indicate that any team had offered him more than 10 mil per. so unless you had some inside info, you couldn't know. several sources (including those in toronto) indicated that toronto offered 5/55.
  15. this sums it up. if we sign jacque jones, i'm going to be furious.
  16. blalock sucks away from texas. wood has a no trade clause. this isn't going to happen.
  17. these obps are distributed evenly throughout the lineup. last year's cubs team did not have the same thing going on.
  18. are you sure he can opt out? I thought the mention of this is that he can demand a TRADE after '06 if he's traded during this offseason, as he's a player traded in the middle of a multi-year deal.
  19. What about Lowell? The Red Sox only picked up Lowell because they had to pick up his salary to get Beckett as part of the deal. I would expect Marte to get every chance to win the job with Lowell backing him up. What about Youkilis? 1b with petagine
  20. patterson would be exposed to waivers before being able to go to AAA again.
  21. for Larry Bigbie and Aaron Miles
  22. good to know i'm not the only person who physically damaged something when that happened. i shattered a glass at a bar. oops.
