    well it's always best to evaluate a player when they're at an extreme high or low

    The only joke is watching Walker try to play. you're thinking of all the cubs, especially the pitchers who think it's a good idea to give up multiple grand slams an inning.

    lock thread plz, this is a joke

    Players who's game is based on speed have been shown to age well. I think the fact that he is 32 is largely irrelevant as he will be a good player for 5 or 6 more years. I could definitely see Ichiro as part of a very good team. I think it's generally thought that players who are well-rounded age well, not so much players who are based on speed. Ichiro minus a step or two will likely mean a 30+ point drop in batting average, at which time there's absolutely no way he's not going to be much overpaid.

    i would've voted peppers over the stones or beatles, but not here.
  15. treebird
    you really should hate the beatles. it's so fun.

    the good news is that this whole tournament is now irrelevant bad job, all.
  17. treebird
    why do people like girardi?
  18. treebird
    really? he only gets mentioned in every trade rumor.

    hopefully the cubs take advantage of their close proximity to mexico and buy illegal fireworks to celebrate independence day, thus placing themselves at risk of serious injury or death.

    yesyesyes I don't know why more people don't realize this, but it's actually a good thing when your favorite players get screwed over for awards and this sort of thing. Bobby Jenks making an all-star team is only going to make him more expensive when it comes time to re-sign him. My guys will take the performance, and your guys can have the accolades.

    i'm rooting for david eckstein to put down a bunt to win the world series on a suicide squeeze so that next year we field a team entirely of players under five feet tall
  22. treebird
    But if you take away his bunt hits....ah forget it. Not liking it doesn't make it go away corey's numbers aren't the only thing that's true of

    great thread

    didn't bill simmons write an article once basically saying he thought wade boggs wasn't that great because he walked all the time? I think he wrote something along the lines of "not a franchise player" because he was an OBP guy, not a run producer, but I can't remember fully. I guess that just begs the question of whether or not HRs/SLG are needed for a guy to be considered a franchise player. Ichiro doesn't really have them, but I would argue that Ichiro brings more to the table than did Boggs or Gwynn. ichiro might bring more different things to the table, but when it comes to the main course, boggs was showing up with filet mignon and ichiro's got a sirloin.

    if you throw up a 476 obp like boggs did in 1988, you'll be called whatever you like.
