What's gotten into the Cardinals?
Transmogrified Tiger replied to bukie's topic in General Baseball Talk
I'd say the D-Backs, Brewers, Braves, Mets, and Phillies, and possibly the Reds, Dodgers, and Marlins -
mlb.com has a draft tracker

Marlins take Galloway, bummer

haha, Luis Flores, we gave that guy so much crap when they came to Columbia

The White Sox take Danks, good pick in the 7th.

I'm not nearly the draft guru that others are, so I'm not much help there. Raisin, RammyFanny, Ping, and others probably have a better idea. Some of them were talking about Isaac Galloway, a HS OF, for one of our previous picks. Paying him would add some balance to the college heavy, lower ceiling profile of our draft thus far. Not sure what his demands are though.
-
I don't think it's very legitimate at all. He can't stay healthy as a starter, the short outings keep his arm from falling off. Practically speaking, there's no way Lou or Hendry consider it. And if you were going to move a bullpen arm to the rotation, make it Marmol. The only reason he moved to the pen was necessity at the MLB level.

Day 2 should be getting underway in about a half hour(10:30 CST), rounds 7-50 are on tap.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 6-5-2008
Transmogrified Tiger replied to Outshined_One's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
Guyer is a 22 year old in Low A with a sub-.300 OBP. Not much there. -
So, when's the next time we blow a team out with the starter going at least 7?
-
How in the great blue sea is Capps on waivers? Or Fuentes for that matter?

Vote or Die: Cubs All-Star Voting Thread
Transmogrified Tiger replied to vance_the_cubs_fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Theriot is actually 3rd in OPS for NL SS, behind Reyes and Ramirez. He has a 70+ point advantage in OBP over the two guys right behind him. With defense it makes it closer, but as of now it wouldn't be an awful decision if he made the game. -
California born guy that goes to KU? double whammy imo BITE YOUR TONGUE Yeah, you're not bringing enough attention to his apparent gang ties.
-
I think there's a distinction between "All right! Rhee's off to a good start!" and "Rhee looks like a surefire prospect". One is the actual reaction, and the other is the opposite of the criticism that's being told is "too soon".
-
WOW SMOKE
-
seriously, how did he not swing at that
-
his hand came off while the tag was still on, pay attention
-
Soto seems awfully low in a crouch at the plate.
-
Cmon Howry, you're never going to get Lou to trust you again and Marmol's going to throw 130 IP.
-
Wieters is over three, three!, years older than Vitters, of course he's going to be further along. There's your point of reference though, if Vitters isn't past Daytona or doing well there by 2012, it's time to worry.
-
Howry-Wood is fine to finish the game
-
With what? His ability to flatten his hat bill? Come on, at least just ask why. Ok, but he hasn't hardly played in two years now. That alone is worrisome. I just don't see what he could have done to get anyone excited. He played short season ball after he signed, and he's only 18, so playing short season ball this year isn't stalling him. How many years after he is drafted should I start looking forward to seeing him reach Daytona? 5? At that point should I start to worry? Vitters was a young high school draftee who signed late. Having him in short season ball for his first full season(so to speak) isn't unusual, or worrisome. I was disappointed that he couldn't start the year in Peoria, but it's hardly time to push the panic button with him. He has plenty of time on his side, so he's got quite some time before people can rationally put a death knell on his pro career(as disappointing as that might be to some).

Lou is wandering around like a crazy person.
