  1. Burnitz got bad real fast. Then agian what do you expect from a guy who is over 36.
  2. Where's that coming from? I know his option isn't likely to vest, but I figured at the price of the team option, he'd be a lock to return. The way I see it he cleared waivers, his option won't vest, he's getting older, and we also have Hairston.
  3. Sounds like Walker might not be here next season.
  4. Even if he hits a .275 avg I would be happy with it.
  5. I'm liking what I'm seeing from Corey. Heres hoping that he keep sit up.
  6. If Baker must play Neifi, at least he is doing it against a lefty. Neifi actually is somewhat useful vs lefties. (.295 .309 .505). He has some power as a right handed hitter and we all know about his range. After seeing about 50 seeing eye grounders get through the infield yesterday, I don't mind seeing him in there. By the way, vs lefties Walker is at .369 .406 .662, so go figure. I'd have rather seen Perez at short tonight, as Nomar's at .219 .257 .219 vs lefties. Actually, as long as Nomar's goal at the plate seems to be to pull everything they chuck up there on the ground, I'm ok with Neifi in there, provided it's vs lefties, and lefties only. I'd rather he was in the 6 hole, though. Dustyism at its finest. Just when I said he has been putitng in a good lineup.
  7. Hopefully Rusch was just rusty yesterday from not pitching a great amount on one day recently. He should have been our 5th starter from the beginning of the season. Let's hope but too bad chances are it really won't matter this year.
  8. Although i dislike Baker and still think he has to go, he has been putting a consistent lineup and pretty much an ideal one with the roster which we have. It's obvious now that our starting pitching is terrible and grossly overrated. I think Z and Prior are capable of ERAs in the 2s. Wood obviously hurt and cant start, Maddux should change his name to old dog, and our other pitchers are just bad.
  9. I think it will all depend on how much he asks. If he is asking for superstar money then it will be wise to let him play through the the year to see if he can match this year's numbers. I personally do not think he can but if he does that we can sign him for a pretty penny. If not, chances are he is not worth superstar money but would still like to sign him to a contract similar to the one he currently has.
  10. Yeah, you and the fan of any team in baseball. Two words. Angel Guzman....Hahaha ok maybe not :)
  11. If they pick up Reuter I will boycott them until the off-season.
  12. Rothschild is conspiring against Dusty to get him fired. That was the plan all along.
  13. I really thought we couldve thaken this game but theres no chance now.
  14. Wuertz walks in another run. I'm that happened recently.
  15. Yep the pitching is not good. Too many people obsess over the lack of walks though, and fail to realize that pitching and defense have lost lots of games this year. Theres so many things wrong with this team that you can point your finger at anything and find a cause to the problem.
  16. Oh boy where is our pitching.. Just terrible.
  17. TIme to get Rusch out of there. He' sbeen terrible. Looks like he is coming out Thank goodness.
