  1. Why do you keep putting up that same thing?
  2. I wouldn't mind ending up with Tejada. I'm guessing they'd want something more as far as offense is concerned. Maybe throw in a Fox or Craigh, and try to keep one of the arms.
  3. So, who are the likely candidates for the Cubs' next pick?
  4. That's a huge red flag for me. The guy isn't going to learn plate discipline with the Cubs, and he isn't going to handle those pitches against pros. If we have another 4:1 K:BB guy on our hands, he won't help at all.
  5. He'll be lucky to make the majors in 4-5 years. There's no conflict with his position at 3B.
  6. They need to cut the time between picks to 3 minutes.
  7. http://www.minorleaguebaseball.com/milb/events/draft_report/y2007/tracker.jsp?mc=vitters Probably be a slightly better hitter than Wallach, but worse defensively. So hopes of Wright or Chipper are not warrented? Wallach huh. So he won't be somebody worth hanging onto once he's making free agency money.
  8. Boooo to the lack of Vitters talk. I want to learn more about him.
  9. Is Magadan an appropriate comp though. He was a part-time player who never hit more than 6 HR in a season. Vitters ceiling isn't that low, is it?
  10. Jim Callis doesn't look like I thought he did, and he needs to drink a nice big ice coffee.
  11. DBacks on the clock with 20 seconds to go. ......................... and they take Jarrod Parker RHP HS indiana.
  12. Speaking on not penciling these guys in: 2011 4-Patterson 9-Colvin 7-Soriano 8-Pie 5-Vitters 3-????? 2-????? 6-?????
  13. He won't make the majors for at least 4 years. In 4-5 years Ramirez will probably not be the player he is now, and this could allow the Cubs to let him walk without overpaying an old veteran.
  14. I don't know the full story on Vitters and the biggest detractors. I think part of it is the inherent risk of any high school position player, and the fact that the Cubs are so bad at developing them. I think there are significant questions as to his upside, with many suggesting that if everythign works out, he'll be a mediocre 3B. I don't have a strong opinion either way, but I would have preferred the best college hitter myself.
  15. So, for all those who are convinced Vitters will bust, what would he have to do by the end of 2008 to change your mind? Harvey put up this line one year after being drafted: .264/.327/.481 in short season. By the time he reached low A, 2 years after being drafted he crapped out with a 257/.302/.484 with 24BB and 137K. Do you think Vitters can be in Peoria by next season? If he is in Peoria and puts up something like .280/.350/480, with 60BB and 100K, do you start to have hope? Is that even possible?
  16. Cubs fans are never happy. The Cubs could win the World Series and there would still be complaining going on here. No, there wouldn't. Cubs fans are never happy because the Cubs never do the right thing and never win. QFT. I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be much complaining going on if the Cubs just won the World Series. OK. So I exaggerated. I still made my point though. And what was that point, that Cubs fans insatiable appetite for greatness means they will never be satisfied and always complaining? You are describing Yankees fans. Cubs fans complain with justification.
  17. Cubs fans are never happy. The Cubs could win the World Series and there would still be complaining going on here. No, there wouldn't. Cubs fans are never happy because the Cubs never do the right thing and never win.
  18. They'll tweak it. I enjoy being able to see these guys and here them talk about it.
  19. good call. they're probably espn interns. or some unemployed Jets fans they collected at the last minute. there are employed jet fans? The Jets fan I know best just quit his job, so maybe not.
  20. per ESPN's request. you really think it takes the NFL teams all 10 minutes to make their picks? No way, but ESPN has to get their highlight reels and talking heads air time between picks NFL teams negotiate possible trades during their time though. Why was Price hanging out with Dusty Baker?
