New ballpark you're most excited about

If he proves last year wasn't a fluke, that's a good deal.

Mattingly steps down as Dodgers' hitting coach
Post Count Padder posted a topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
That was fast: -
He hits lefties fairly well. A career .803 OPS vs lefties is better than Pie will give this season (or possibly ever). He does hit lefties better, but he's still a .280 career hitter overall, can play all 3 OF positions, and he has a .457 career AVG at Miller Park. I'd take him as a throw-in in a trade for Roberts and/or Bedard, but I'm not sure I'd trade for him outright - he'd probably cost too much. He definitely has value though. Yeah, same here. If we had to take him back in a Roberts trade, I'd have no problem with it. However, I would not make a trade with the intent of him being the main peice we get in return.

Reggie Willits? Seriously? You have got to be kidding. Eric Patterson>>>>>>Reggie Willits.

Yeah, at least DeRosa was consistent in his career year: 2006 Home - .299/.358/.441/.799 2006 Road - .293/.355/.470/.825 Byrd, on the other hand, is only coming off a career year at home, but not on the road: 2007 Home - .356/.406/.510/.916 2007 Road - .259/.304/.410/.714 Although for Byrd, maybe a .714 OPS on the road is a career year, as well. I'm pretty sure Fuld could have those numbers. ZIPS has Fuld at .261/.329/.377/.706 Now give him a year with Rudy... I'd still take that over Byrd.

Trading away Marquis might be the best part of any Roberts deal if it happened. marquis was pretty lucky last year. if we could somehow pawn him off on someone who actually thinks he has value, please for the love of God get rid of him. His ERA was under 5 last season. The Orioles don't have many guys like that. yeah unfortunately for them, marquis' era won't be below 5 this year. Shhh, don't tell them that.

Good fielder, good power, good stats away from Petco.

I say we argue about it for another 20 pages. Why stop at 20?

AP says $15.5 mil. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-cardinals-molina&prov=ap&type=lgns What? More than Izturis? That's maddening! Obviously, Yadier has more RGI than King Caesar.

Good info. I wonder what happens if/when he gets to the majors and is blocked by Soto.
-
Just seems like more of the same. I refuse to be optimisitic. And if this is all true, and Angelos is shooting down the deal, MacPhail should hand in his resignation papers and spit in Angelos's face on the way out.

Fukudome's first AB as a Cub: MVP 2005 Style
Post Count Padder replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Anytime I want a baseball game, I play MVP 05 for XBox. Nothing else comes close. -
2003 Marlon Byrd wasn't bad, but I know what you're saying. Anoyone else notice how his power numbers all but died once he got to the majors? He hit 28 homers in 2001 at AA.

Cubs sign Michael Wuertz

He's been so consistantly good for us, yet I keep forgetting he's on the team. -
If Hendry makes that trade I'll personally kill him.

Fukudome's first AB as a Cub: MVP 2005 Style
Post Count Padder replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I'll take it, despite him missing badly on the first 2 pitches. :P -
I think this is dead-on. He's not a lefty, he's not a top of the order hitter, and he has a low batting average. Hendry won't be interested, even though he should be. Yes but in Hendry's mind shortstops are suppose to be poor to mediocre hitters with "moxy" "spunk" "grit" ect... I dont think we've had a good shortstop since Dunston. We talk every year about the glaring hole at SS when Hendry simple doesnt see it. He's happy with fielding crap at that possition for some reason. It's funny to think that Shawon was an all star for us...twice. I never thought of him as really that good, at least with us. He was always this huge potential guy, but it was never fully realized. I think it's been since Banks that we had a truly great SS. What about Ricky Gutierrez?
