    Welcome! I'm an incoming freshman at Mizzou, what's your major?

    Because they are the Yankees, Steinbrenner gets impatient.
  3. Transmogrified Tiger
    Didn't see that coming.
  4. Transmogrified Tiger
    What do you think should happen to Felipe for his comments?
  5. Transmogrified Tiger
    That's the kicker. If Hill and Williams were performing better, a move like this might be better received if accompanied with another "throw in the towel" move like trading Burnitz.

    Ronny and Lee for ARod+cash. Sign Konerko. The Yankees are only paying 16 mil a year to ARod, right? If we could get the to eat 3 mil a year of that, his contract would be awesome, instead of a millstone. Hmmm, I have dated information on how much Texas is paying. Cot's contracts says they pay an average of 16 million for A-Rod, 112 mil over 7 years.

    Package him for A-Rod and cash.

    We can only hope.

    Haha, you don't realize the horror that would be Gary Hughes as our GM, which is the likely candidate if Hendry is canned. He'd put Bowden to shame. Someone post that BA roundtable again. Done

    Welcome back.

    over 600 at bats, the difference between a .275 hitter and a .300 hitter is 15 hits. a guy who hits .300 over his career is a better hitter for average than a guy hits .275 over his career. within a season, i wouldnt be willing to say that. you seem pretty smart. you should read this book. I think I have ADD. I bought Curve Ball 4 months ago, and tried to start it, but couldn't make it to page 20. Maybe once I've been in school a bit and my mind is working again I can try it again on a break.

    Paging Mike Fontenot...

    He never said that. bruce miles said he indicated as much, and he said so with complete certainty. i trust miles saying that more than i would've trusted an actual quote of hendry saying it. That's fine, the fact still stands that he didn't "say" it, and that Miles could've been off base.
  15. Transmogrified Tiger
    He never said that.

    Alou is obviously implying that the White man is the devil. He must be fired. Seriously though, is that much different than the logical leap that led to Cream of Wheat being deemed offensive?

    Well, Williamson only threw 12 pitches yesterday. Hopefully Dusty yanks him if he gets into trouble. Williamson shouldn't have been in there yesterday, and you could tell by how he threw. This is 4 times in 6 days. No excuse. None. I wouldn't put Williamson out there either, but somebody has to pitch, and there's still the 8th and 9th. Out of the inning with 15 pitches. Hopefully he gets at least a day off, hopefully 2.
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    8-1

    Pie in AAA hopefully, and Murton as the 4th OF or dealt.

    How is Pierre filling a role on this team if he can't produce any better than Patterson? His OBP this year is an anemic .313. His SLG is an even worse .330. Even when he was hitting, he wasn't a great player. I don't know how easier to say it than I already have. Patterson was better offensive player than Pierre last year. He created more runs for his team. Spot in the order is irrelevant. If you stuck Patterson in the leadoff hole for all of last season, you would have scored more runs than if Pierre was in the leadoff spot. Lawton and Walker are both better leadoff candidates than Juan Pierre. Walker will come cheap next season, and we have the advantage of having Lawton on the team right now when it comes to signing him. There's no need for Pierre. He's not a very good offensive player. His skillset isn't as productive as convential wisdom would lead us to believe.

    Good for Dusty. That probably means a lineup like: Murton Perez Lee Ramirez Burnitz Walker Patterson Barrett Fixed. There's no way Dusty plays Nomar 4 days in a row. Actually, if you have to get Nomar a day off, it works pretty well: Murton Walker Lee Ramirez Burnitz Barrett Patterson Perez You are able to get Barrett, who CRUSHES left handed pitching this year, up in the lineup while keeping Patterson 7th.

    4 of those 5 teams are in the same division and will beat up on each other.
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    You don't seem to be getting what I'm saying. Last year, Patterson was a better player than Pierre. That's going by Runs Created, which takes into account stolen bases. This year, both have been equally horrible, except Pierre has 160 more plate appearances of awfulness. You can justify him all you want with vague terms, but the fact remains that Patterson is every bit as good as Pierre, if not better. AND, Patterson is not a very good player right now.
