  1. Meh, I'd rather evaluate what we have before we spend on 3 to 5 mill on a cody ross type guy and potentiall not have enough money for a Pujols/fielder and a pitcher.
  2. So this has to be top spot in the top spot in apete's worst posts post? Right?
  3. like our SS? castro is not mike trout He's better. what makes you say that? Yeah like the Angels have never had a supposed super prospect who was going to change the game flame out in the past 5 years. Where for art thou Brandon Wood, Dallas McPhearson, and Jeff Mathis
  4. No, Dunn's Bat speed is gone and he brings nothing to the table defensively. Sori can't hit a curve but he can still crush a heater.
  5. 30 in this non steroid era is ancient. They should be lucky to get back brett gardner or ryan theriot clone.
  6. I feel confident if Ryne Sandberg was named Ryne Henderson he wouldn't have been considered for the job.
  7. To be fair it was to JR Towles. Who is clearly better than Geo Soto.
  8. Really? He's kinda gritty and grindy.
  9. Rarely will Tampa trade a productive player, but they usually dont have a problem letting FAs walk. Garza Randy Wells is better.
  10. Not really, he was a product of Rothschild. Since Larry is no longer here he's now going back to what he was without Larry,

  12. Horrible, should've traded him the to rays. There goes money for Pujols to be sent into another guaranteed injury. Never ever sign relievers to contracts longer than 1 year. Hendry needs to go.
  13. Really? The guy has owned the team for one year and has been saddled with a freak-ton of awful contracts. What opportunity has he had to show anything? Did we forget about the debacle that was the amateur draft? Hopefully, Ricketts keeps giving the okay to draft signable guys who are not even in the top 200 of that draft in the first round.
  14. The cubs wouldn't have drafted Hamilton due to character concerns. The hamilton trade was the offseason of the bad guy purge.
  15. If he hasn't signed there needs to be a collective effort to cheer for him as much as possible. Something organizied by the fans prior to every Cards game. Ladies and gentlemen meet your Chicago Knicks! Is there the baseball equalivalent of a star that no one wanted?
  16. I'm a stupid moron with a ugly face and ugly butt and my butt smells and I like to kiss my own butt.
  17. Agreed, I just hope the cubs can get Casey Kotchman or someone else who this board thinks sucks. GO CARDS
  18. Its all just posturing right now. Unless the Cardinals are complete idiots and do not understand the value of Pujols, they'll pay. They wouldnt have signed Holliday last offseason if they were just going to turn around and be unable to pay Pujols this season. I think this is all just posturing to get the just deal to appease both sides. I think at the end of everything we'll find out that there was almost no chance Albert was going to leave STL. We can always hope though. Holliday was a terrible deal when it was signed. But wasn't the howard monstrosity that has really made the market go all out of wack again after they signed Holliday?
  19. Because he's going to end up starting in center field for the Cardinals, making the all-star team, and winning another gold glove. and Ryan Theriot is winning the MVP after hitting 100 HRs and having a OBP .528 whilst playing SS and 2B at the same time by himself.
  20. Lulz, on Chirinos. I wish Hendry wasn't a dope and give that Abe Vigoda fella a shot over Zambrano. And wasn't Pie more of a Lou debacle? 1) is Chirinos not better than Koyie Hill? 2) Sure, and Neifi was Dusty's. I wasn't ascribing blame to individuals within the organization Maybe minimal at best. I would rather keep Castillo than the guy who has been in the minor league since my foray into higher learning.

  22. That's definitely wise, especially when you're the Oakland A's, but what if you're the Red Sox or the Cubs and you have the money. Is it good to let the talent walk and get the picks and rebuild the back end of your bullpen over and over again? Truly asking... The difficulty I have with locking up Marmol for big years and money is that he always seems like he's one bad pitch away from having his right arm fly into the fifth row behind home plate. Plus, there are a number of guys in the high minors who could step forward in the next year or two who could provide quality outings for much cheaper than Marmol. Plus, I have to think Marmol's 15.99 K/9 and 0.12 HR/9 will regress next season. Relievers with big contracts always make me skittish. Marmol is no exception. Anything over two years would be difficult to stomach if his production falls off. How is that different than any other pitcher?
