  1. http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/prospects/features/262799.html Their Top 20 prospects for 2007 from Baseball America. Pretty sure none of them are on their 40-man Erbe and Reimold look to be good to look after I doubt the Cubs get a top-10 prospect from the Orioles for Bynum. I'm expecting a Carlos Perez-type.

  3. Tigres beat the Caribes 6-4, box: RP T. Atlee 0.1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 1 K/0 BB Leones win 6-3, box: C H. Blanco 1/3, 2 R, BB (14) Overall: Thomas Atlee (Caribes): 19.1 IP, 9 R, 8 ER, 20 H, 12 K/11 BB, 3.72 ERA, 1.60 WHIP Henry Blanco (Leones): 29/130, .223/.303/.308/.611, 1 HBP, 14 BB, 20 K, 2 HR, 5 2B, 1/2 SB ... Angel Guzman (Navegantes): 8 IP, 0 R, 3 H, 8 K/0 BB, 0.00 ERA, 0.38 WHIP, 7 GO-8 FO
  4. Felix got the day off in the Tigres loss to the Gigantes.
  5. Tampa has sold the #1 pick to the Oakland A's who will use the pick on San Diego RHP Joakim Soria. MILB.com anticipates Kansas City will use the second pick on Colorado RHP Pedro Strop. Also:
  6. Culiacan lost 8-7, box: 3B C. McGehee 1/5, RBI (30) Overall: 55/180, .306/.372/.433/.805, 5 HR, 8 2B, 19 BB, 18 K, 1/2 SB, 10 E
  7. Wish I coulda seen the game, stupid work. Six in a row!
  8. Comparing Schmidt to Carpenter is apples to oranges since one is on the open market and the other is under team's control for two more years.
  9. He pounded the ball in the second half, and his .060 IsoD is far from a disaster. Did Pie participate in any of the winter leagues? If so, how did he do? In 121 ABs, including yesterday's game: .223/.271/.281/.552, 1 HBP, 7 BB, 23 K, 1 HR, 4 2B, 5/5 SB
  10. Disagree. Lilly was decidedly mediocre. And the Cubs had two LH SP last year too - I'd rather they be quality pitchers than pitchers who can throw lefty. Shouldn't mediocre in a DH league and a stacked divsion translate into at worst above average in the offensively challenged nonDH NL? He still is a flyball pitcher who already surrenders a lot of HRs and walks, I'm not a big fan of that combo. And, for a guy who's supposed to be an innings-eater, he's never thrown 200 IP.
  11. The Cubs have a daily press conference after 5 PM? I think that is pretty standard for the winter meetings week. What do they discuss on the slow news days like the past few? Hendry is probably going to be tight-lipped too.
  12. Disagree. Lilly was decidedly mediocre. And the Cubs had two LH SP last year too - I'd rather they be quality pitchers than pitchers who can throw lefty.
  13. That is (was?) a pretty popular slogan on t-shirts for Giants fans.
  14. Word! Indeed. Guzman'a 10 starts (coming off of injury at age 24) and Marmol's 13 starts (at age 23) clearly spell out how they will perform next year. Much more so then Meche's and Lilly's pathetic careers. Man, if Gooz and Marmol hadn't started last year, the Cubs would have been saved.
  15. No, he hasn't. He also hasn't pitched anywhere near as much as Hill did in the high minors - and, of course, had much worse control. Rich Hill Carlos Marmol
  16. They can't trade Pelfrey until January 2007, since they only signed him earlier this year. So, this particular deal might not happen for another month at the very earliest. PTBNL.
  17. Unless you're referring to Zito, you can't make that statement, knowing that Schmidt wanted to stay on the West Coast. We weren't even mentioned in the 3 finalists for Schmidt. The Cardinals were. Last I checked, they weren't on the west coast. Exactly.
  18. I believe the Dodger rumors are based on after signing Schmidt (trading Penny).
  19. Penny = No Lofton, just a heads up to the folks who want to see Lofton signed.
