  1. So he has a better RF than more than half of the major league second basemen, and a zone rating that is better than 13 other starting second baseman. He was tied for 3rd in fielding percentage, better than the starters on 26 teams, and he was sixth in DPs. Yes, he clearly sucks.
  2. I'd rather sign Mirabelli than to trade another prospect or two to get him back if we can't find a catcher to catch the knuckleball. Sign Belli and Barajas. If Barajas can catch the knuckler, trade Belli for a prospect.
  3. It's a 162 game season. It doesn't end at the trading deadline or in August. Youk is the only tired player at the end of the season? This is just an excuse.
  4. .381 is not really near .400. It's not even near .390.
  5. Who am I advocating that we get? I am not elevating the importance of power at the expense of defense. I am not thrilled with WMP because of his defensive limitations.
  6. Definitely. Not too many guys take Pedro deep twice when he throwing that well.
  7. Read what you quoted. I was comparing Youk to Millar not Lowell. Youk and Lowell are about the same offensively. Neither lights the world on fire, but lowell has more power. Lowell is a much better fielder. Youk has more trade value than Lowell because he is younger and cheaper...period. Trade the guy with more trade value and keep lowell for one more year.
  8. From today's Herald
  9. The tough old bird was born in Brooklyn. That's why he was such a tough old bird.
  10. I agree, but this assumes that they keep Manny.
  11. It would be a special 3,4,5 of Manny, Ortiz and Bonds. It would be difficult to pitch around all three of them.
  12. Matsui's injury was a break, which is not as serious as tendon and ligament surgery.
  13. What about inviting Bagwell to camp now that his Astro contract is up?
  14. Rehabbing for what his next injury... perhaps a twisted testicle this time.
  15. Sox offered Damon $10 million. Plus, he is a different type of player than Sheffield but every bit as valuable. Damon is a CF and a damn good fly catcher with a bad arm. He's a leadoff hitter with speed that is a catylyst for offenses. It's apples and oranges. Also, Damon was not coming off a major surgery at age 38.
  16. It is funny how guys in the last year of their contracts find miraculous cures for their conditions. I would n't be surprised to see him play 120-130 games in '07 and put up some nice #'s.
