  1. I agree with Rogers and I agreed with him with Zambrano and Samardzjia hell throw in Harden. They are the problems. We need more Sam Fulds and Ryan Dempsters. Hopefully the cubs go after Mark Derosa aggresively in the FA market. 4 years 36 mill is my floor.
  2. Hopefully it's with a different team.
  3. Nothing is worse than Bradley. He's worse than Jimmy Carter. History's greatest monster.
  4. This is what I know. Strictly by RBIs Vernon Wells and his laughably bad contract is better than Fukudome and his laughably bad contract.
  5. Agreed. I can't wait for Sam Fuld in RF next season when we trade bradley for pennies on the dollar.
  6. Andruw Jones has 7 less RBI's than Fukudome. BENCH him.
  7. Nothing like using batting average and RBI's to prove your point on how worthless a player is. Unless you're joking, the Cubs didn't sign him for 30M to put those kind of worthless numbers up. His attitude and lack of production is why he is booed. Period and end of story. Bullspit. The fact he's replacing a player every trixie and doucheweasel loved despite the fact he was mediocre. Is why he's being booed.
  8. This is correct. If a guy debuts with the team with the kind of april and may bradley had, said player would never get out of the fans doghouse even if he posted Pujolian numbers the rest of the year.
  9. So, you want the cubs to take loads of HGH because I'm 95% sure that's the cardinals "pixie dust".
  10. Can't play RF and had a rep as not being a solid RBI guy.
  11. agreed hindsight is all sorts of awesome. Ignore the the fact Ibanez was a passable at best corner outfielder in seattle with the bat and defensively his arm would not be terrible in RF who was also on the wrongside of 35.
  12. Agreed. Players should not emulate the steroid takers of this era. They should emulate the wild coke binging players of Rice's era. That's why Josh Hamilton is so awesome he's a throwback.
  13. Is he also going to get a sweet deal with walgreens to provide "supplements" for his players like in St. Louis and Oakland?
  14. their success was primarily because of one move. Yes, and the Cardinals have somewhat lucked into success as well. My point is that they aren't a sabermetric team, but they (at least they think they are) are good at recognizing and developing amateur talent. Who exactly have they developed outside of Joe Mauer who was someone they couldnt mess up. Justin Morneau and Matt Garza and that's about it. 1998 - Ryan Mills (6th overall) 1999 - BJ Garbe (5th overall) 2000 - Adam Johnson (2nd overall) 2001 - Joe Mauer (1st overall) 2002 - Denard Span 2003 - Matt Moses 2004 - Trevor Plouffe 2004 - Glen Perkins 2004 - Kyle Waldrop 2004 - Matt Fox 2004 - Jay Rainville With the exception of the no brainer choice, that's about the worst run of drafting during that time frame in the first round in the non-Royals division. Pirates? Heck, the cubs
  15. is anyone really saying he is bad out there defensively? My arguement was I'd rather sign corey than trade for Crisp. Trading for crisp at this point with lofton and Corey still out there is fairly dumb move.
  16. no, brian roberts is, and chase utley and jeff kent are NL 2Bs who are far better than soriano anyways. there's a whole other thread on why we shouldn't get soriano, by the way. Let's not forget Lil' Giles
  17. Mora for Jerome Williams and a mid level guy? Not nearly enough. The O's want pitching with some track record of success and consistency. Marquis has nearly three years of that under his belt. We'd have to give up Maddux (no trade), or may be Rusch and Mitre. But even that's a stretch. Its realy not a good fit. Three years of success? Correct if I wrong but wasn't Marquis not successful in Atlanta?
  18. Mora for Jerome Williams and a mid level guy?
  19. Why third? Sandwich him between Lee and Ramirez because Dusto likes those Lefty righty matchups Hairston Jr. RH Walker LH Lee RH Dunn LH Ramirez RH Burnitz LH Barrett RH Neifi SH Pitcher
  20. Juan Pierre isn't the answer either. He is simply one of the most overrated players in baseball. He walks about the same amount "in terms of total walks" as Patterson. Is a bad baserunner. Has a horrible arm and has no power. No, thanks I'll take Dunn's Flaws and stick with JHjr. in CF.
  21. Agreed, let's not forget Pierre also runs out of alot of runs with bad alou like baserunning.
