Bonjour, Mr. Pierre
Productive Outs replied to a topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
i think it's a good summary of the trade, but i have to nitpick: derrek lee had 199 hits in his 2005 season, 99 of them being XBH. he did not have twice as many singles as he did XBH. -
I don't know why Tubby didn't press about 5 minutes earlier, or why he hasn't been pressing all year. Forget the seven footers, and stick with that small lineup.

Has anyone said this? I know that I've said Walker is close to being as good as Tejada, but I never said he was better, and I don't think anyone else has. Think Baltimore would take him for Tejada? Throw in anyone else also? I know what the answer from Baltimore would be-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. yes, they would laugh, because they have brian roberts. THIS ISN'T ABOUT WALKER.

Because he isn't really that great of an offensive player. We got slightly less production from Walker last year that we would probably get from Tejada this year. Just because he plays a positon were offense is scarce doesn't mean we should overpay for him, especially if it is possible to upgrade more cheaply at another position. What were his numbers last year? No way is he comparable to Walker. Tejada last year: 304/.349/.515/.864 Walker last year: .305/.355/.474/.829 Try RBI's and HR's. Selective use of numbers is meaningless. NO ONE in baseball would try to equate Todd Walker being the equal to Tejada. i can guarantee that if walker played a full season batting third he would have 100 rbis and 20 home runs. home runs aren't everything, their SLG should tell you that Why is it that Walker never hits 3rd then if he is that good? Is every manager a moron in MLB? Why does Walker get bounced around so much? People we are going to have to agree to disagree on this because no way is Walker in Tejada class in any way. this is not about walker. we're simply trying to show that giving what has been suggested in this thread for tejada would not be a wise move.

History shows that he hasn't. Projecting numbers is a wonderful fantasy, but history shows he hasn't done that and won't. History shows you that they are separated by .26 in career OPS. I really don't see what else you need.

And yes I know for the first time in his career last year he hit leftys well but still this should be considered. If people on this board truly believe Todd Walker is a better ballplayer than Tejada, well then..... i don't think anyone is trying to say that.

Tejada's career OPS is .26 higher than Todd Walker's. He is a better defensive player obviously, but I think sending Pie, Hill, Williams, and Cedeno is a bit much.

i am too lazy to do pitchers, so here are my position players: C - Victor Martinez 1B - Albert Pujols 2B - Chase Utley 3B - Aramis Ramirez SS - Alex Rodriguez (i would move him back) LF - Miguel Cabrera CF - Grady Sizemore RF - Vladimir Guerrero
