  1. So in terms of next year's team, we just traded DeRosa and Marquis for Bradley and Miles I'm angry/disappointed, but not surprised.
  2. I think he's better thank K-Rod, but that's just me.
  3. A reasonable person would think that's where this is leading, but these are the Cubs we're talking about.
  4. Theriot and Miles up the middle might be the Grittiest middle infield in baseball.
  5. Stevens looks like a quality reliever with a high K rate, Archer is only 19, but has zero control, and I don't know about Gobbs. I hope the Pads want these guys.
  6. Interesting. Here are Stevens' stats: http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/S/Jeff-Stevens.shtml
  7. The Indians have a pretty good collection of young arms in the low minors. Obviously, Adam Miller won't be coming back in this trade, I don't think. But I think David Huff is the type of guy that San Diego would be enamored with. Huff was just drafted and signed during the '08 June draft, making him ineligible to be part of a package now, I believe. I thought it was 06
  8. If you think Aaron Miles is an "average middle infielder" then I just don't know what to say. Aaron Miles and Neifi Perez are interchangeable. This is nowhere close to being anything but an irrational stupid move that should get Hendry fired. There's no excuse for this deal. I think that's a little over board Yeah, Miles has at least shown he can hit .280-.290. After that though, I wouldn't expect much. Little power, doesn't steal many bases. Average OBP. I don't know what his defensive peripherals look like but I'm sure they're not horrible. He's rather gritty if you ask me, but I don't think he's as bad as Neifi.
  9. Hmmm, interesting. Any guesses on which prospects? I'll miss DeRo but it's nice to sell high for a change.
  10. Probably not. It's a big contract for a guy coming off a career year, but he could have gotten $20 mil more on the open market.
  11. I'd like to see this, I think: Soriano Lee Bradley Ramirez Soto Fontenot Fuku/Johnson Theriot Bottom of the order seems a bit lacking. We'll have to see if those guys can repeat. If Fuku figures it out, then we'll be fine.
  12. Solid. I have a feeling Vizcaino gets dealt shortly after the deal is official. He's an average reliever if we end up keeping him, but at least we free up some cash.
  13. You can't write this stuff. Granted he's still got some left in the tank, but it's still funny.
  14. I wouldn't mind him, but it seems a bit weird for the Yanks to turn and trade him after jsut getting him. They've been trying to unload Melky.
  15. Can something happen already? I'm bored. The Commissioner's office is closed for the holidays, yes?
  16. I think they are trying to sign every player in MLB.
