Narron fired as Reds manager
Soriano12 replied to Roast's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
You can call that getting fired, or getting put out of your misery. -
To be fair Wright generally plays gold glove calibre defense and Aramis and Cabrera are below average. I think picking any 2 of those 3 is fine and the 3rd is a snub to make room for the dumb nat player. Same with the SS's, a very strong argument can be made for Renteria and Rollins being as valuable as Hardy. Another argument can be made for Ramirez being as valuable as Reyes and more valuable than Hardy. False. Aram has been anything but below average on defense this year.

David Wrong over Aram is a crime.

He is a stud. I think he has K-Rod potential.

this was his first quality start since May 24th. he has been mediocre or worse in every start since then (besides today, when he really should have gone 8 or perhaps more. lou sucks at BP management). 6-4 3.31 ERA .226 BAA .309 OBPA .636 OPS against He's a well above average 5th starter. The Marquis talk is ridiculous. that's because he had a fluky good first month and a half of the season. he had a 5.09 ERA in June. 823 OPS against. .382 OBP against. He is not above average. His numbers will even out by the end of the year because he is not a particularly good pitcher. So we should base our judgements of Marquis so far this season, soley on the month of June, ignoring April and May?

Sure the Bulls may want him back, but like you mentioned, why would New York want to get rid of him? His contract is nice and there are not many athletic centers around. Athletic center = Curry?? Under what definition are we operating here? If they get Curry back to go with Noah, I'll have to go back to hating the Bulls again. Actually, Curry is extermely athletic. He has tons of God Given talent. Problem is he plays 0 defense, doesn't rebound, and choses when he wants to play hard on offense.

If true, where does Selig get off voiding that deal!?!?!? That money to Jacque Jones will be spent no matter what? The Cubs were just paying it off right now in one lump sum to free up a roster spot for a younger cheaper player!...whatta bunch of crap.

As a Bulls fan I seriously refuse to accept Noah till he gets a haircut. He looks ridiculous.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 6-28-2007

Another HR for Cedeno? Holy crap is he raking. -
hmm, me thinks Ben Gordon + something else could have been enough to get Randolph.
-
Pax has done of good job of avoiding the "bust" in his drafting history, so that make me feel better about the Noah pick.
-
Julian Wright...should have stayed at Kansas another year son.
-
How stupid of him not to listen. The Braves are planning to move on in 2008 without him. He is pretty much hurting himself.

oh for crying out loud....did you even read the article. Yes, absolutely. He makes a point to note that the Cubs waited until Barret's value was at his lowest to trade him, which is completely a hindsight argument. In the offseason, when his value was high, there was no need or desire to trade him. Trading him at his highest value wasn't in anyone's thoughts. So its a nonsensical argument. The other notable names in his article (aside from Sosa) are people who have bounced around baseball, playing for numerous teams, and not sticking with any of them for more than 2 years. How much value do these career journeyman have anyway? Has any team received real value in trading for guys like Walker or Bellhorn? That still doesn't change the fact that Barrett was incorrectly sold low, mainly because they decided to make him a scapegoat for this teams struggles.
