Why is that in purple? I'd settle for Gallagher.

Hah- yeah, not even Hendry is that stupid. Marmot's been pretty good.
They might do Jacque for Pods straight up!
The Orioles are even Worse. I mean they hired McPhail

"why not? he's a FA at the end of the season. i'd rather get two ready to play prospects than wait 4 years and hope the two picks turn out."
Who is to say that their two prospects are better than what we already have or what we could get out of the draft? Besides, they could die the day after the trade in an auto accident.

I am to say their prospects are better. Esp considering how wonderfully we've drafted for the last 4 years!

To answer your question, everyone whom we've drafted in the last 4 years has sucked, and it doesn't look like they're going to try to make an effort to improve.

I am just not sure about who is right and who is wrong. Personally I'd take the 2 draft picks. To me its like buying a used car. You just never know what you are getting.
Dye to the Dodgers for James Loney?

I'd want Broxton and Loney.

Broxton is a stud. Definitely include him.
Will the Dodgers be willing to part with him. Billinsly(sp?) Ain't bad either

Fields, Sweeney, Anderson...
have all been drafted in the last four years. Get a fuckin' life.
Method - Jun 21, 2007 8:19 pm (#2591 of 2986)
And they have done what? Fields might still work out...
Anderson is about as good as your other favorite... Rex Grossman.

Sweeney will as well. Cripes, the kid is 21.
Method - Jun 21, 2007 9:14 pm (#2593 of 2986)
4 drafts and the only thing we have to show for it is Gio, Fields and maybe Sweeney...
Screw draft pics... Let the trade master see what he can pull off.

If they turn out to be decent starters, I think that's pretty good.

When you're a "seller".....
you don't have much leverage. Every fuckin' team out there will lowball Kenny if a White Flag sale occurs. And Method, what the fuck did we gain in the last White Flag Sale??? For all of it's ballyhoo, we didn't win a fuckin' thing and the last time I checked, that is the major objective in any sport, winning titles. Kenny got you Contreras, Iguchi, Dye, Pods and Garcia and a 2005 WS Championship......so fuck off!
Method - Jun 21, 2007 10:14 pm (#2596 of 2986)
He got all of those players other then Dye in trades... restock and go for it again.
What's your constant obsession with has-been old farts... you seem to LOVE to defend them to the bitter end... Did Todd R ever pay you for all the PR you ran for him?
