Wait, so you're telling me a pitcher with crappy minor league numbers is doing crappy in the majors? I don't believe it. Samardzija is just not that good and never has been.
DeRosa is .195/.259/.481 with the Cards and .254/.324/.462 overall in 2009. He's hitting for good power but he's making a ridiculous amount of outs this season.
Well according to Bill Hall, Bill Hall is the best 3rd baseman in the league bill hall is the best 3b in the national league. crede is the best in the american league. i'd kill for either of them
Didn't they get Sheffield for the league minimum as a planned bench player? That was no more a desperation move than when the Cubs picked up Edmonds last season or BJ Ryan this season. Plus Sheffield has like a high 800's OPS for the Mets this season.
We just gave up Kevin Hart for Grabow - not sure why we'd then ditch him for Ryan and his 86mph fastball... Because he's BJ RYAN. who cares if he just got released. all he needs is a change of scenery. he should be called up right now and be our closer. he's BJ RYAN
