So DeRosa has fewer than twice the opportunities but yet more than three times the RBI's? You're making my point... I'm not saying Bradley is hitting as well as DeRosa, but that it's not entirely on him, that's all. Bradley needs to hit better AND his teammates need to give him more opportunities
-
To date, DeRosa has had 87 PA's with RISP (155 with men on base) Bradley has had 48 PA's with RISP (87 with men on base) I wonder why one guy has more RBI than the other?
-
RBI's aren't the best way, sure. But when your big run producing offseason acquisition has 16 RBI's at the end of June... that's very telling. For comparison, Mark DeRosa drove in his 16th run on April 27th. yes, and he had a .618 OPS at the time, which only proves that guys were getting on base ahead of DeRosa at a much higher clip than the guys in front of Bradley. You're missing the point. The point is, we traded a run producer to clear payroll to add a supposed bigger run producer. And that supposed run producer has been a complete bust. Meanwhile, the guy we traded has three times as many RBI's. no, you're missing the point. you're using RBI's as your main point of comparison. The fact that DeRosa had 16 RBI on April 27th had less to do with DeRosa being better (his numbers at the time sucked) and more to do with opportunities. Bradley has been bad, but he's also played less frequently and had fewer opportunities to drive guys in.

how can a GM that most would rate as decidedly average be overrated? well he's apparently the worst in baseball so clearly the people rating him as average are overrating him. I guess he really is the worst. God knows I've been pining for the GM's of the Nationals, Astros and Mariners to come in and replace Hendry....

Because Cubs fans never have a beer in their hand. or yell at players
-
not remotely -
he might not be going anywhere today, but I'd be shocked if he's still and Indian on August 1
-
you're halfway there My guess is he's going to the Mets
-
is Soto trying to set a single season record for 3rd strikes watched?
-
my brain is failing to comprehend all of these manufactured runs

It's actually the Mexican League. I'm willing to bet that Macias wouldn't be OPS'ing ~950 playing in AAA in Indianapolis. He played 107 games for AAA Nashville (2007) and OPS'd .599 -
i'd like to see JoePa suit up in pads

I think the implication was that Geo was informed that he had failed a test long before it was made public
-
I do, and I'll prolly watch, but outside of Tavares and Hedman (or whatever his name is) I'm not too familar with the hockey prospects (just yet). me either, but I was flipping channels and saw it was on Vs.

Gotta find a reason to DL Soriano or Bradley to keep this guy in the lineup
-
None of you care about the entry draft? Pronger to the Flyers in a trade....
-
Can you think of another sport where the head coach wear's the same uni as the players? Baseball is weird like that. but at least that's a tradition based on player/managers. having ineligible players suited up makes zero sense
-
Totally random question.... Why do guys who are on the DL still suit up in the dugout? I can't think of another sport where injured/unavailable players put on the uniform...
-
at the very least he'll earn a suspension from the club and a solid home in Lou's doghouse
-
How about coming up with a mystery injury for Soriano so he can go on the DL and Fox can play LF

SMOKE EM IF YOU GOT EM

Fontenot shouldn't be buying any real estate in the Chicago area right about now...
