  1. oh look rondo doesn't get ejected. what a joke.
  2. All I saying is that when it is said and done people in October Bradley will have reach his career numbers or surpass them, and the April struggles will be long forgotten. I know but I'm saying that if he ends up with his career numbers, that would be quite a disappointment. 100 something games of an .825 OPS isn't worth what he's getting.
  3. All I know is Scales at 3B can't possibly be a worse situation than Fontenot at 3B and Miles at 2B.
  4. An .830 OPS is an offensive force?
  5. Yup, and I said it was a ridiculous cotnract the second it was signed. I wanted to let him walk. What a terrible contract.
  6. like i said, derosa has shown for 3 straight years that he'll hit. ontenot has only shown that he is capable of hot streaks. plus there's that whole multiple position thing, which is kind of important right about now
  7. Sounds like Aramis is probably going to be DLed. Are we really going to have to deal with Fontenot at 3rd and Miles at second for the next week and a half?
  8. They need to DL someone for him to come up. The problem is, Fox can only play 1B and maybe the corner OF. He's a righty Hoffpauir. There has to be an AL team or 2 taking notice of this guy. He can knock the cover off the ball, and can play multiple positions, though ineptly. Granted, hes on the older side for a prospect, but hes not ancient yet. If only hed take the time to tone up his defensive skills. I'm pretty sure it's not a matter of "taking the time" to fix his defense
  9. how do you blow this game? seriously.
  10. this would be a terrible loss
  11. wow rose is blowing it big time
  12. they really really need to win this now
  13. does rose realize theyre up 4 with 3 minutes left? jesus
  14. Our big league club is a mess, we have guys playing out of position... but hey... at least some mediocre pitchers we got are kind of doing good in the minors!
  15. good to see kane finally burying those open looks.... something he wasn't doing for the last 2/3 of the season
  16. The second best season of Lee's career came the year after the wrist injury.
  17. Who did those guys end up with? Hopefully Lou will have one of his panic moments with Fontenot after tonight's performance and eliminate him from starting third like he did with Hoffpauir in right.
  18. Heilman is still walking a lot of guys and not missing many bats. That's why I said he's been "alright". If he keeps walking as many as he K's, he's not going to end up being very good. As far as DeRo goes, we know he's going to hit. Don't try to act like part of the reason he was traded was because he was a question mark. He's a proven hitter. Fontenot is not a proven hitter. We knew Pie and Cedeno sucked and I didn't even mention them in my post, so I don't know why you're bringing them up. Also, what's with the Dempster/Marquis comparison? Did Marquis just get some huge deal like Dempster did? And no, Bradley is not the only problem with the offseason moves. Giving Miles 2/5 was a problem. Trading for Gregg and his salary is a problem, when you consider we dumped DeRo to save money. Not having any depth is a problem. Trading away Gaudin for a crappy A ball reliever because he had a good spring is a problem. Oh and by the way, if Bradley was really brought in to be the guy who hits RHP, then that's another big problem. Bradley career vs LHP- .302/.386/.502 (.887) Bradley career vs RHP- .269/.362/.435 (.798) Oh look at that. After all that talk about wanting to get more left handed, they take a huge risk on a guy who doesn't even hit righties well.
  19. Funny how we can waste a roster space on Gathright as Ramirez is injured and we have no backup 3B.
  20. 2 more walks tonight
  21. The fact that Miles can't even play 3B makes his contract that much more embarrassing. He is literally worthless.
  22. That way we can actually have a guy out there who can at least play a major league 3B even if he's sucking at the plate. Fontenot is completely worthless at the plate and he is not a third baseman, period. He just cost Lilly 4 runs because he thought he was playing second. The fact that we have a payroll this huge and zero depth is a joke.
  23. I haven't been able to watch the first period.... who t getting outplayed? I know the Hawks are up 2-0 but it says they're being outshot 15-7. What's the deal?
