    60% of the time those guesses were correct every time i think it's safe to say Hendry is a big lover of the OBP nowadays
  2. sneakypower
    They both play(ed) for San Diego. wrong answer
  3. sneakypower
    question what do Giles and Bradley have in common?
  4. sneakypower
    we're "interested" in Bradley every single stinkin year and every time it's all just a big tease

    this is reminiscent of the Jesse Foppert deal where the Mariners thought they were getting a pitcher with high upside, but the Marlins are in the class with the A's, Cubs, Giants, Braves and Cardinals insofar that they're beyond reproach for scouting pitching. these teams (Zito debacle aside) all have such a great ability for recognizing pitching talent that I don't really have much derision for when they make a move that on the surface looks ill-advised.

    I think that DePo blog posting was more posturing than anything. yeah I agree, and not to derail the topic, but if Hendry said something like this NSBB would freak out. mostly we can't tell what GMs think from what they say because they all just feed fans crap they think they want to hear.

    DOUMIT and they'll have a lot more than that if they trade McLouth Why trade McLouth? He's still cheap production for a while, no? well a lineup with Tabata and Alvarez is several years in the future, where I'm presuming he'll price himself out of their range a la Bay

    I don't think that's true. The Padres are a huge mess, and a 35 year old veteran outfielder is not the key piece to build around. By the time the Padres fix their current mess, Giles will likely be retired. If they can get something for him now, they should. yeah, I know that's just the PR spin that was coming from Depod for what it's worth (mostly nothing) Giles has a .301 .457 .609 career line at Wrigley

    Giles intangibles make him far too valuable to the Padres to move him oh and DeJesus excites me, though it would sadly mean the end of Pie with the team :cry:

    i am really loving this deal from the Tigers perspective

    Bailey for Laird is hilarious. why not Volquez? but I like Teagarden a lot. not for the Cubs obviously, but there are a lot of teams out there that would be well served to inquire about his price.

    DOUMIT and they'll have a lot more than that if they trade McLouth
  13. sneakypower
    yes, and it was his idea to start doing it
  14. sneakypower
    Jovan Rosa how on earth can you get 35 doubles and only 4 of your hits go over the walls? Brandon Guyer's caught my interest this month
  15. sneakypower
    he's not tipping his pitches he's sacrificed velo on his fastball for more movement throwing his fastball much more, likely helping helping him reach best BB rate of career

    Red Sox are really getting a hell of a deal if they don't include a really decent prospect or two on top of Manny.
  17. sneakypower
    i love those cleats
  18. sneakypower
    i cherish my bob scanlan halfshirt jersey

    in a BBTN segment the analysts were asked who they would start a baseball team with, and I think one said Pujols, another said Arod and Brantley said...Papelbon
  20. sneakypower
    JJ Hardy is no spring chicken either. he's old?
  21. sneakypower
    or starting pitching or bullpen or situational hitting or bench or managers
  22. sneakypower
    Soriano always dekes me out with his posing
  23. sneakypower
    seriously? no visit to the mound? what is Yost doing?
  24. sneakypower
    fixed
  25. sneakypower
    that play literally NEVER works
