Wouldn't be surprised.

D-Backs may play Owings at first base

I'm still pissed off about the fact that the Cubs never signed the guy. Me too. I knew we'd regret it. -
I wonder if any are reading this thread and getting angry about how unrealistic our trade proposals are? Of course they are! :lol: I guess that's the 67 guests lingering in this forum then. :P

That was Jim Duquette, not Steve Phillips. Few people remember Duquette ever being a GM, so might as well say it was Phillips and make hhim look dumber (if possible).
-
Yeah, I'd beleive Bruce long before I believe anything that spews out of Phillips's mouth.
-
Does Dusty want to finish the job? Finish what he began. He figures by the time Prior is back he'd have already ruined Harang and Bailey's arms and needs someone else.
-
WHAT?! Better not. I'm hoping Phillips is full of crap.
-
Hahah, I got really excited, then I put my mouse over the link and noticed what it was. Me too, haha. I won't get fooled again (good song).
-
I wouldn't do that deal. That's too much. Maybe something like Marshall, EPatt, and Petrick/Hart?
-
I don't think it will be tonight. MacPhail, I'm sure, would have to run it by the owner since Markakis and Roberts are 1-2 on the owner's list of player favorites. So we're talking to them about both? :D Heh, in my dreams. If only in my dreams... To the best of my knowledge, only Roberts is part of any talk with the Cubs. Hendry has remain steadfast in saying he won't trade Hill or Pie. Thanks Bruce. Good to hear about Hill and Pie.
-
:shock: I might have to register there to warn them of the oncoming dangers! Maybe i should too....... *remembers all the times the Orioles bested us in trades* .....on second thought.
-
Ha, I saw that.
-
I won't give up Hill or Pie unless Bedard is involved. Though, how much better will Bedard be in his prime than Hill?
-
I've been trying to get on their the last couple of days but you now have to be a member. Any of their insiders saying anything? Nothing really. Of course, the consensus there is that they want Hill + Pie for Roberts. If it's Gallagher, they want Gallagher + Pie + Patterson. I've learned since reading that board, that they expect a lot for their players. You should pop that huge bubble that is their trade return expectations.
-
I wouldn't mind bringing him back and seeing if he can regain form.

Super sub. He really doesn't have a set position, he could play everywhere. He won't start, but he probably could still end up with 300 at bats. Wrong. A guy with a .380 OBP should be playing everyday. Period. 300 at bats isn't nearly enough, unless of course he had 300 at bats and 600 plate appearances. I feel the same way, but I made my post based on what I think will happen, not what I think should happen. If it was up to me, we would be trying to get a starting shortstop, not another starting second baseman. But, Cedeno is the only true SS on the team. Theriot is a 2b. His arm doesn't really have the range to be a true SS. So, if we are going to play a guy out of position, give me Brian Roberts at SS and Mark DeRosa at 2b. IIRC, Roberts is a historically bad fielding SS.
