  1. Wow, if I expected those numbers I'd add them immediately in the dynasty league I'm in.
  2. yes. Rickie Weeks too. and the Brewers should be worried about Gagne.
  3. Well everything Sabean does is unfathomable, it's just that signing is atop the list right now in my mind.
  4. I know it's off the topic, but it's unfathomable that the Giants gave Rowand a huge contract when they could have had Patterson for peanuts. And when Rowand predictably reverts to his old .320s OBP self, what's the difference? Or even Rajai Davis or Fred Lewis.
  5. just as an aside, what are your expectations for Butler and Garza?
  6. in fewer than 300 AB? Kemp also had the highest BABIP in all of baseball, whereas Pie's was nearly .150 worse despite putting up the higher LD%. it's so fluky I really don't know you can draw any reasonable conclusions from their brief MLB samples. looking at their production in the minors, Pie had the better BB/K rate but a slightly lower ISO. they should probably be fairly similar hitters, all things considered. it also bears mentioning Pie is the vastly superior defender in CF and is faster.
  7. alright I'll ask it. what makes Kemp great and Pie crap?
  8. I Love Strikeouts, Hate Hits and Extra Base Hits and Do Not Mind Walks.
  9. he won't even be the worst defensive LF in the division. or the 2nd worst.
  10. 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.
  11. matt millen is such a good GM
  12. 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.
  13. Bill James projected him to slug .600 this season.
  14. Michael Young said ARod was the only player he's ever played with more talented than Hamilton.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. no, Marinelli is single-minded.
  19. i sure didn't see that witty quip coming a mile away...
  20. 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?
  21. Ruiz for sure.
  22. 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.
  23. reed johnson would look great in CF behind mark reynolds at SS. our pitching staff sure could use the extra challenge.
