  1. no thanks. he's going to command far more than he's worth. 6 years, $72m is the contract I've heard thrown around.
  2. Houston has won 9 of their last 10 and is 8.5 games behind STL. But they only have 5 games left with them with only two in Houston. It'll take quite a bit for Houston to win the Central, but if they do, the Cardinals' collapse will rank up there with other infamous collapses.
  3. Okay...some one explain this to me. Foppert was a highly thought of prospect in '03 and was supposedly getting his velocity back. Torrealba is a decent catcher, but is he REALLY an upgrade over Miguel Olivo?
  4. One thing to keep in mind is that Dopirak has basically had no break from the start of his stint in Lansing up until now. He played in the Arizona Fall League and also saw his fair share of action in Spring Training. Exhaustion and nagging injuries are both likely possibilities for some of his struggles this season.
  5. *Ahem* DOPE SLAP! #11 on the year. Come on Brian, heat things up!
  6. Am I the only one who doesn't get the big stink about this guy? Yes he has pretty good power, but his plate discipline is poor (averaging a strikeout a game this year and throughout his professional career) and he's really only having a solid year at a level he played at last season. At least Brandon Sing walks a lot and destroyed the levels that he's repeated. I feel like if Moore had been drafted in the 20th round instead of 8th overall, nobody would think anything of him. I'd also like to point out his errors so far at third base this season.
  7. The Giants have made a late bid for Randy Winn, offering two mid-level prospects, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. A Mariners source told the paper Saturday that there is a 90 percent chance Winn will be dealt before the deadline. The Mariners will likely recall Chris Snelling after Winn goes. Winn could play center and left in San Francisco. Jul. 30 - 7:41 pm et Source: Seattle Post-Intelligencer Either the West is an absolute joke or Sabean is off his rocker.
  8. And Rusch coms in for Novoa just to walk Clark to face a RH hitter? It has worked out so far, but it makes zero sense. Yet again, the blind dart throwing monkey hits a bullseye.
  9. Hollandsworth is now in for Gerut. Um...okay.
  10. And that's why he's one of the top hitting prospects in the nation.
  11. Gerut hasn't exactly produced up to any meaningful standards for the Cubs.
  12. Is Hill the only Cub starter who doesn't use a 2 seam sinker as his primary fastball?
  13. Sometimes it helps to be freakishly tall. :lol:
  14. His pitch count wouldn't be quite as bad if Ramirez had gotten at least one out on that slow roller from Terrero. Also, if Hill can develop his change and cutter and throw them for strikes, he'll have a good future in the majors.
  15. [-X Hey, if he could net the Cubs a franchise-level LF, I'd be all for it! :D
  16. There ya go Rich! Up that trade value. 8)
  17. He even does that bent arm thing when he's on the bases.
  18. I love how Hill's curve starts at the chest and drops to the ankles.
