How about Damaso Marte?
imb replied to Backtobanks's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
I like. Is it that much less nasty with Piggy or Lahey instead of Marte? Or with Leiber in long relief and Hart in short relief? Especially when whoever gets the final pen spot will be basically the 25th man on the roster? Is it that much less nasty to pay more in money and prospects to upgrade it? That's the same point people make for not making the Roberts' trade. Getting Marte makes a good bullpen better. Of course, everything depends on cost. It's completely different. You are talking about getting better for 1 inning at a time, 70 games a year. With Roberts you are getting a 9-inning/ 150 game per year player. It's completely the same. You take a good situation and upgrade it to make it better. That 1 inning at a time, 70 games a year possibly could make a swing of 8-10 wins depending on the situation. I could argue the VORP of Roberts over DeRosa is less than the VORP of Marte over Pignatello or Cotts. I repeat, you make a good situation better in either case. lol Roberts in 2007 - 48.6 Derosa in 2007 - 21.3 Marte, in what was basically a career year, vorped 15.7 In other words, no. -

if only Hill's dad were here... i think abuck's at work right now -
It was perfectly clear to me and many others here. Can't help it if you weren't paying attention like the rest of us. [-X [-X I simply want the Cubs to win the division, the league and the World Series this year, that's all. To put any hope on having Wood as the closer, given his history of DL stints and who knows how many games he wasn't or won't be available, is bad decision making. Again, he has ZERO saves in his career. How would you ever determine a closer if they're not allowed to ever get their first save? Everyone starts at zero. check their dna for the closer sequence

As long as they're buying low, I'm down. Some of the rumors I'm hearing (reading) have it being a late round pick (5th or 6th rounder) and Jones agreeing to turn a large portion of his contract into incentives. My guess is this happens some time in the next week or so. Fantastic. If he's stayed in shape, it will be worth it to the return game if nothing else.

That was 2006. When has Granderson ever had a .265 obp? I'm sure he means that is Granderson's OBP against lefties -
