  1. That's probably a good comparison. I could see a Rusty Greer type career as well, without the unfortunate end because of injuries. Greer is a very good comparison.
  2. I'd put Murton in front of Pagan, but otherwise it's a good lineup. Hairston starting is okay with me as long as Walker starts against some LHP.
  3. Maybe now this will actually force Tracy to play Craig Wilson consistently.
  4. That's a great list, but really http://www.newbergreport.com should be there for the Texas Rangers board. What's the name of that really good brewer board? It's not on there either. EDIT: I should probably read this thread, it's brewerfan.net
  5. Montanez is pretty hot out of the gate. Does anyone know how he is defensively in the outfield? Could he handle CF?
  6. E-Patt's start is really getting me excited. It's nice to see a highly regarded pick perform to capabilities after the injuries and disappointments of Dopirak and Harvey thus far.
  7. Brazoban out for the year Well, at least it's all going to pot early so they don't build expectations.
  8. Angel Pagan pagan is getting alot of pt thus far. is it just me or does he run funny? it's like he doesn't stride far enough or something. Whatever it is, more people should try it.
  9. I can't believe that Wilson doesn't start for this team.
  10. flair needs to eat his vegetables. otherwise i like the lineup. I probably should know this, but who's flair? Pierre? yep
  11. Dempster is tied for 5th in Saves (2) Lee is 2nd in OPS (1.399)
  12. The best I've got is that I picked up Nick Johnson and Ian Kinsler(stupid injury) off waivers.
  13. We aren't even 2 weeks into the season, let's not rush to judgment.
  14. He's talking about if we win, since Otis won't be able to continue his duty.
  15. And not really "proven." There are lots of 20-year-old pitchers who don't reach their potential, due to injuries or other things (like Doc). Felix has a very high ceiling, but being a pitching prospect means he also comes with a great deal of risk. It's not like you're dealing all of those guys and getting a guarantee that he'll have a Clemens-type career rather than an injury-riddled one. True, I'm very leery of pitching prospects injuries wise however I think Felix's talent is too great not to do the deal. Think about where the organization would be after doing that trade. We'd have basically nothing in the system worth trading, and we'd be up one stud pitcher. It'd take years to get the system back, and the Cubs aren't one Felix Hernandez away from winning the pennant. If you were that committed to trading all those guys, you could probably get better value receiving multiple players in return.
  16. I agree. One superstar player is not a substitute for a quality team of players. Felix is good, but we would be mortgaging the teams future. To further put in perspective, we'd be giving up a pretty good reliever, plus the #1, 2, 4, 5, and 7 prospects in our system(BA rankings).
  17. Why would that make him uncomfortable? It's not like he's on top of the plate.
