  1. At this point...doesn't Ronny deserve a full shot at being our starting SS next year?
  2. http://www.royalsreview.com/story/2007/11/19/171737/71 When Royals' fans are mocking you...you have a problem.
  3. Then THIS DOOZY.... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Also....Jones was never an all-star, believe it or not folks. It appears the comparison was made by Orestes Destrade. If that's the case, it doesn't bother me. I've listened to Destrade on XM and I doubt he would notice the differences between Jacque and Fukudome. Agreed...they are both baseball players...that puts them in about the same position as far as Orestes is concerned...the fact that they both play Outfield...well...they might as well be twins.
  4. Goes to show how exciting the signings of Jason LaRue adn Dewone Brazelton are.
  5. http://stlouis.cardinals.mlb.com/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20071119&content_id=2303956&vkey=pr_stl&fext=.jsp&c_id=stl Oh noes.
  6. The "Emperor's New Groove" guy? I guess if we could turn him into a lama that help with the costs of keeping the new field mowed....and maybe might offset the whole billy goat thing.
  7. Wow....Kenny Williams is doing everything in his power to erase from people's memory that he helped win a WS just 2 years ago.
  8. This has to have something to do with Fukudome doesn't it? Not that it justifies it....but if he plays SS, you stick Fukudome in CF..and it allows us to trade Cedeno, Pie and others for a power bat in RF...the "MAYBE" its not a horrible plan..
  9. Yeah, a large part of me wants them to keep Rolen, Edmonds, et al and continue to suck...if they are able to dump them for salary relief and even some low A prospects their team has a much better shot at improving faster...not next year...but faster...if they keep those guys and keep paying them they may suck for a couple years.
  10. Bobby Hill and Matt Bruback for Aramis Ramirez Hee Seop Choi for Derrek Lee (In best Eddie Murphy voice) "Rocky Marciano...Rocky Marciano...every time you bring up boxing white man gotta bring up Rocky Marciano".... (BTW...damn that was a funny movie)
  11. Eeek. That's a pretty high price.
  12. OK, maybe not to start the season...but unless Prior is resigned and he's back to form, that's a down right awful playoff rotation if we were ever to make it that far.
  13. He doesn't hit for a ton of power, but he put up monster numbers outside of Tropicana field last year...he's entering the prime of his career...those are some reasons....not saying I agree with all of them, but if you could have an OF of Soriano, Pie and Crawford...and then find an offensive upgrade at SS...that'd be the makings of an outstanding all around team.
  14. Also his .397/.427 line during day games is nice.
  15. My God. I had never looked at Crawford's Home/Away splits. Sign me up please.
  16. "Man, if they get Crawford...just WOW!!! Their lineup will be scary!!!" This is a quote from the Cards forum on STL today...... I'm not sure I'm all that excited about it...but anything that makes St.Louis fans mad can't be all bad.
  17. Eckstein is the lone free agent shortstop who has been a regular starter in recent seasons. The Pirates have no plans to pick up the $5.85-million option on Cesar Izturis' contract and will make the former Gold Glove winner a free agent later this week. The Cardinals will have interest when his availability is official. From the Post Dispatch.
  18. Oh no...its not over...paper in St.Louis today listed him as someone the Cards might be interested in to replace Gritstein.
  19. Crawford in Left, Fukudome in Center, Soriano in Right... Trade Pie for Tejada....
  20. It was basically nothing wasn't it...I didn't think any players were involved and I think we were picking up "most" of the contract.
  21. He's a lock for next year! As for Braun v. Tulo....If Braun was just passable defensively I'd agree...but he's not at all....
  22. Maybe they have already agreed to a deal and are waiting until Wednesday (the first day he can be signed) to announce it? Actually teams cannot discuss money with free agents other than their own until tomorrow. Does that count for him too since he isn't any particular "team's" free agent?
  23. Tulo got screwed. (Title Edited to include AL)
  24. I keep thinking Baltimore wants a replacement for Tejada....
  25. Not sure if this has been posted on here...but XM says that Fukudome filed for free agency today.
