    Lee and Archer were top 100 prospects (along with BJacks and McNutt) They were good prospects. Heck, Hak-Ju Lee is well on his way to being one of the top 25 prospects in all of baseball in next offseason's prospect lists. Though to be fair, Archer's well on his way to the bottom of the list.

    You must be fun to hang out with. Agreed.

    Cripple seems strong.

    Nitpick, Szczur was From Villanova

    Ortiz hit for decent power his last couple years in Minnesota, Tom Kelly just hated him and he struggled with injuries. In general I don't care, but he did have a positive PED test in Boston as well.

    Where have you gone Jason Neighborgall?
  9. SouthSideRyan
    He has as many wins as the Cubs do in games James Russell appears in.

    You must be fun to hang out with. Unlike those cut-ups over in the Peoria marketing department. They seem to be pretty good at what they do, whether or not you approve. So's Lebron James.

    I think the weather landed him on the DL.

    We'll see. He's so far away from career norms I expect it will get a lot worse. And you think that's primarily due to it being a cold/mild spring/summer and simply more hot weather is going to bring his numbers crashing down? Just look at his data on fangraphs. You think it's the cold weather that's causing such a turnaround in GB/FB?

    If you think Garza is an OK pitcher, then there's no need to continue the discussion. We differ greatly on our view of his abilites.
  15. SouthSideRyan
    Won't other pitchers be pitching in the heat and giving up HRs? Saying he is cost controlled means exactly that he won't be getting what he'd get in a FA market. I don't understand why acquiring a young very good starter for 3 seasons doesn't fall in line with any team's strategy except maybe the Astros.

    Come on, I just made that reference like a week ago.
  17. SouthSideRyan
    That was about as fun of a game I've been at since '08. Suck it Milwaukee.

    After 7 years, Dallas figured out the secret to stopping Lebron. Game over.

    Anybody else flinch when they advertise their Northside Baseball Viewing Party?

    I don't think there is a clause like that. I'm assuming that if they pick up his options, and he finishes up this contract without the necessary service time for free agency, then they will have the option of offering him arbitration or not. If they don't offer, he will be a free agent. That's not the arbitration he was talking about, he was asking if he'd still be under team control. I'm pretty sure he would be. That is the arbitration I am talking about. He will be under team control, as long as they offer him arbitration. He will have ~4 years of major league service time, but no contract. Mea culpa, read your post too quickly.

    I like the guy on the Illinois board that's convinced himself LBJ will be broke shortly after his career is over. He sucks at basketball and is going to blow all his money. And I hear he has syphillis!

    Hendry as president would be a [expletive] nightmare

    Gooney, do you think they should've kept Gorz and Silva in the big-league bullpen to start the year?
