  1. so he's bad at hitting for average fair enough
  2. why's Lee going to waive NTC?
  3. i'm going to reserve judgment until i see our record when he was injured
  4. hard to believe this is the same guy who had .300/.400/.500 JD Drew/Bobby Abreu projections
  5. Kendrick hit .360 in over 1500 minor league ABs i still can't get over that
  6. not the mens Horton was robbed
  7. 1/2's: Reaction/Instincts - Soriano Throwing Strength - Edmonds, Theriot 5's: Reaction/Instincts - Lee Theriot, Fuku, Edmonds, Pie Throwing Strength - Fuku, Ronny, Blanco, Pie Throwing Accuracy - Lee, Soriano, Blanco
  8. i'd take him in a heartbeat for a milb assignment with a guaranteed spot on the roster next year has good power and a cannon for an arm
  9. Vitters has 23 doubles in 218 ABs :shock: he's top 25 prospect, probably
  10. he's still a better candidate than freaking Carsten Charles Sabathia
  11. Jose Canseco - 132
  12. edit: nm saw thread in BD with same sentiments
  13. well as long as you are admitting you're ignoring significant pieces of the equation i'm fine with that
  14. I would still take Milwaukee's. Mat Gamel is way better than anything the Pirates have, at least until Alvarez plays some professional games I also like Caleb Gindl, Cole Gillespie, Alcides Escobar, Angel Salome, Jeremy Jeffress, and Jonathan LuCroy. They are still pretty stacked. Oh and Tabata sucks. What has he slugged for his career, .350? No thanks. Gamel is not better than McCutchen, much less "way better", unless you're treating this as purely an OPS ranking while taking absolutely nothing else into account Tabata hit .300 in the FSL at 19 with a bum wrist; i'd gladly have him
  15. i wonder what they could have given the Padres that was equally as valuable as Izturis
  16. it's deep and i don't think it's playable
  17. stupid nicknames for Curveballs yacker, hammer, bender
  18. I know that I'm in the minority on all of this admiration about Dunn, but I would never call Dunn a "great hitter". A "great hitter" would be able to make contact with the ball more often than Dunn does. He has a .904 OPS and a .305 EQA. I would say that's a great hitter. I consider players like Bonds, Pujols, Manny Ramirez, ARod, Gwynn, etc. great hitters. Dunn is a great slugger, but not a great hitter in my book. As I stated earlier, the new emphasis on stats rewards sluggers and devalues non-sluggers. It is important to have some sluggers on a team, but it is great to have some players like Theriot, BRob, Ichiro, etc. on the team too. so you're saying that you'd rather have a team with a few theriots or ichiros on it rather than 8 Dunns? I bet I know which team would win i've gotta say i absolutely hate this argument
  19. in the interest of full disclosure, i only know what team he played for because i looked at the T206 tobacco card on my dresser
  20. AJ Burnett's probably going to opt out too I'd imagine, which could serve to distract the Yankees away from Dempster
  21. Ted Lilly has a better K rate than Santana hell, so does Randy Wolf Webb's going to win it almost unanimously
  22. The Mexicutioner is a better closer than K-Rod just on nickname alone
  23. i think he'll probably get Pavano money
  24. any CF with a halfway decent arm can play RF
