Another sleeper I really like is Carlos Gomez for the Twins. I know he's fighting with Span for the starting gig in CF but I have to think they'll play him to save face in the Santana trade this year. If he hits .275 he has an outside chance to finish runner up to Reyes in all of baseball for steals. And you can get him on the waiver wire and he'll have more upside than most of the other guys you'd store on your bench.

matt millen is such a good GM

Pierre could be odd man out in LA

i have a feeling that Barry Zito and his 3 losses, 17 runs given up, 6 BB, 0 K this spring is going to try to work himself on this list before long. -
Bill James projected him to slug .600 this season.
-
Michael Young said ARod was the only player he's ever played with more talented than Hamilton.
-
I don't see what you could be expecting from him. Even .300 30/90/10 is probably his upside this season, and that's a usual year for Jason Bay, who's lasting until the 10th round usually. The Reds will regret this trade though, I'm pretty confident of that.

And we thought Lou's leadoff ideas were bad...

The Tigers missing the playoffs probably played a factor in the voting, but yeah they were nearly identical in terms of production. Rollins also should not have won. -

sneakypower replied to b_wiggy_66's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
he started doing this in 05, the year they went to the WS. you just noticed this now? i guess there's the option of hitting Granderson and his .265 obp leadoff. -
only 1 Cub BB
-
no, Marinelli is single-minded.
-
i sure didn't see that witty quip coming a mile away...
-
you can't really be this dense. making completely unprompted inferences of another posters racism wouldn't constitute an attempt to derail the thread? has it been your experience that people usually have no issues with these kinds of allegations?
-
Ruiz for sure.
-
milledge, mcgowan, kendrick, furcal, a gordon, harden, r soriano, lyon, hafner, kelly johnson are all guys that i've thought to be undervalued this year.
-
reed johnson would look great in CF behind mark reynolds at SS. our pitching staff sure could use the extra challenge.
-
drop Rocco obviously. pick up Milledge if you can.
-
Soriano to bat 2nd, Fukudome 5th on Friday
sneakypower replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
if Lou put Derosa in the leadoff spot this board would be leaping for joy, odd since he has the same career OBP as Theriot. -
who said that was the only reason for pursuing LH hitters?
-
Looking at Juan Uribe?
sneakypower replied to BudHouse's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
his road OPS, the only statistic that matters IMO, is 641 for his career. -
If the Cubs HAD signed Lincecum (47th rd pick in the 2003 draft), the Cubs we wouldn't be yearning about trading for him.....But doing that what if is a slippery slide. Going that route, you could also say "What if the Cubs signed Khalil Greene?" oh man we'd have won six world series titles by now and we'd all be sick of winning.
-
which is what you see Zach Duke, Doug Davis, Capuano do to us year after year. i'm not advocating getting lefties like Jacque Jones and Fonenot in the lineup, but I think it helps quite a bit to have a couple LH hitters who can hold their own vs. LHP in the lineup.
-
is there a prize given to posters for derailing threads with petty personal squabbles? it certainly would explain a lot.
-
:roll:
-
You could make the argument that a lack of LH bat in the lineup contributed to that at least a little bit.
-
don't play a C at Util. what a colossal waste, trade one for a slugger.
