depends on your assessment of Marmol. I've thought for at least a year now that Marmol's repertoire was better suited for the bullpen, so I'd have put him there coming into this year. The alternates for the rotation would've been (for me) Guzman and Gallagher. couldn't have said it better myself. marmol's performance this season has made a strong statement that his career will be in the bullpen, and it looks as if it will be a pretty successful one at that.

well your kind of being narrow in that assumption. Derosa wasn't simply a value at the time for his offense at 2B, he was also valuable for being able to backup at multiple positions, and do it well I might add. i agree. he made aramis' injury earlier this year palatable. in fact he's probably better than aramis is at that mosition defensively. theriot filled in at third and looked like dog poop. we would of had an issue at the hot corner if not for mark aramis missed 15 games. the run value of his versatility there over say scott moore isn't going to be that high. i believe theriot had 2 errors at 3b one game because dero couldn't play that led to two runs...does that not count because it wasn't created offensively at the plate?

Duh, we traded Maddux for Izturis. How much more do you want?!? what izturis isn't good...what about his tremendous defensive value, lol

it also helps that everyone pitches to him rather than the big man behind him. let's see, do i give durham or bonds something to hit...

ichiro should do it. gammons has always said he could win the thing if he entered

at least the wind is whipping in so when marquis' sinker doesn't sink they won't end up on sheffield

he's not a big league pitcher. once mlb teams get a book on him they can hit him. rich hill is learning that lesson He started 24 games last year and has started 7 this year. It's not like this is his fifth career start. I would think teams have seen him enough already to have a book on him. 30 games seems about right to see tendencies

felix makes that play

6 runs in the 1st inning when the wind is blowing in...crazy
