IMB!, you hurt me. I thought we had something here. :love: Ps. I love the Firefly avatar! Pss. Considering Pujols has started the All-Star game as a 3rd baseman, Outfielder and 1st baseman I would call him more than a DH. He can't pick it like D Lee, but he's not a liability in the field. FRIENDS AGAIN. firefly is bigger than Cubs/Cards

i loved it.

who is the unidentified?

Hahah, that is a deliberate misrepresentation of what he said. I can't imagine why you would do that, unless you just really dont care enough to actually read and comprehend what other people post.

And yet with Cedeno's incredible progress, most of us think that Neifi Perez will get more at bats than Cedeno this year. I know. I find it strange considering the sheer number of articles stating that Cedeno is the starting SS. Another one came out a few days ago on Cubs.com. In it, it is once again reiterated that Neifi will be used primarily as a back-up at SS. It also says that Walker and Hairston will battle it out for the starting job at 2B with a platoon being a possibility and Cedeno will be the starter at SS. But I certainly understand waiting to see it before you believe it. Oh vey, Dusty... I'm going to wait until someone that is not world class journalist Carrie Muskat declares Cedeno the favorite for the SS job. Do horses mouths Jim Hendry and Dusty Baker count? Show me and I'll be more likely to believe it. Hell, I think even now that Cedeno is going to get the majority of the at-bats, I just don't believe it because Carrie Muskat says it.

we definitely need a cross message board keeper league

McCoy (who im stoked about) and Greshem (who is highly regarded, but im less stoked about) pick OU. Granger and McCoy at DT in a couple years will be amazing.

whatever. youre a sabr guy, that means you play fantasy sports all the time, while crying about what a better gm you would be than jim hendry.

Red Sox, Agonz II agree to 1-year deal
imb replied to E.J.'s topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Did they decide that Pedroia couldnt handle SS, or what? I have to think that his bat would be better than AGonII's. -
Hooray. Nonononono, you don't need any speedy hitters at all. It's a luxury and you are overrating it's value. WAY down the list of things you look at when determining batting order. Thing is, Walker is a superior hitter to Cedeno in every aspect of the game. Again, we want Walker getting on base and hitting for extra bases, not taking hittable pitches so Pierre can risk an out with his less than amazing stealing prowess, not bunting or grounding out on purpose to advance runners. You don't need any speedy hitters at all? So you think the Pierre/Castillo combo was crap? (I just showed how silly your point of view looks) Common people, what I'm trying to say is that a speedy WITH good OBP 2-hitter is better than a slow one. I dont need a Porsche. That doesn't mean that it's crap. I just showed how silly your post was. Bad analogy. A Porsche doesn't score runs. Can Walker make pitchers nervous when he gets on base? NO. Jesus Christ, give me a break. A Porsche doesnt score runs, thanks for the tip, I forgot I was talking about the BASEBALL PLAYING SKILLS OF A SPORTS VEHICLE. Oh wait, I wasnt. TT said that you dont need speed, that its a luxury, you said that he called it "crap" which he didnt, I was just pointing out that "flaw" in your comprehension "skills".

where are you getting this from? His 80 major league at bats?
-
the 2 hole hitter might bunt what? 15-20 times this year, tops? He's going to be swinging the other 500-600 times. Why do you rate "bunting ability" ahead of "not making an outability"?

I'm not worried about Cedeno's OBP either, although, by the same token, I am not laboring under some Kool-Aid induced halluciantions either. Zips...... Name P AVG OBP SLG G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB K SB CS Cedeno ss .287 .332 .412 113 345 46 99 15 2 8 40 20 63 13 4 Hey Fred, do you have Furcal's Zips by chance? If Cedeno puts up those numbers, I'd be thrilled. Furcal's Zips is just slightly higher, I remember looking at it when they came out.

Are you typing with your face? Im just seriously wondering what the hell is going on. I wasnt refuting his point, I was just pointing out that his posts get less and less understandable everytime.

No. The grand slam game was Sun 24 July 05. Wow, for some reason I always thought that homer came much later in the season. Me too. I thought mid August. That was such a hilarious moment. Everyone was resigned to failure, and then it just exploded, hahaha.
