I remember from last year

Washington does not think that way. I think the Rangers would be wise to show their young guys in these TV games, but it’s just not a part of the equation that Washington is able to incorporate.

Anyone watching the WBC

Nelson Cruz got a hit I think and then the inning ended up on some horrible baserunning.

he did get a hit

and it wasn’t horrible baserunning. They had 1st and 2nd with 1 out and a guy hit a liner right at the 2B. He knocked it down to the ground with his glove and turned 2 on the baserunners since they hadn’t moved.

Actually...

taking a look at his baseball reference page… http://www.baseball-reference.com/c/cruzne02.shtml

You’ll see the Mets did trade Cruz to the A’s in 2000 for Jorge Velandia. The A’s then traded him with Justin Lehr to the Brewers in 2004 for Keith Ginter.

Pedro Martinez

how much would he cost to bring in on a one year deal? I would love to let our young pitchers see how a true (one time) ace prepares. That would be worth almost as much as what he actually brings in terms of performance.

There is enough fat on our 40 that there should be space, and we really should hedge our bets against McBriddle getting hurt.

at this point

i would think he would sign with just about any team willing to give him a starting spot. and i doubt it would take more than 5-7m at this point.

by clark on Mar 7, 2009 12:15 PM CST up reply actions  

I doubt it

He might take $5-7 million from a team he really wants to pitch for.

But if it is a choice between signing with Texas for $5 million and sitting at home, I suspect he sits at home.

Sure hope you are incorrect. If Cruz can maintain what he has been doing since late last summer then there is big time potential there. Think we all know what murphy can and will do. just hope Cruz continues to show more.

Cruz has the talent for two or three David Murphy's

Hasn’t proved he can do it in the majors. David has proven he is a solid major league player.

by iorange555 on Mar 7, 2009 2:34 PM CST up reply actions  

Murphy has proven he's a solid 4th OF

Don’t get me wrong, I like Murphy, but players like him are a dime a dozen. Cruz may yet still be a bust, but with the numbers he put up last year and this winter, until his wheels fall off again for good in the majors, Cruz > Murphy just based on potential.

I don't think anyone could argue that

But I think he deserves another one because of what he’s done over the last 12 months or so. And considering the potential reward if he realizes all that potential, he should get playing time priority over Murphy, Boggs and Byrd until he’s proven that he doesn’t deserve it.

Well, first of all, that has nothing to do with my point

Second, it should be noted that Murphy’s line is inflated by his unsustainable line from his 46 games in 2007. His only full season in the majors produced a far less pretty .275/.321/.465 line.

.342/.429/.695 is the line I’m concerned with – that’s Cruz’s AAA line last year, which is so utterly completely bonkers, I think seeing if that can finally translate to the majors is extremely important.

How about today, say 1.5 hours from now?

Would that work? I have an appointment to pick up a listing at 1:30 local, and then have a showing at 3pm local. Gosh, I forgot all about them…lol.

Game's over just in time to watch the end of Roadhouse.

Love that movie… and I’m not ashamed to admit it.

My guess

They’re the only ones who called.

Him and Evans will make for a dynamic duo

Too bad Marshawn is a fool and Trent’s progression has been slow.

heh

from mosley

Pasquarelli said he talked to a Bills coach who expressed shock over the move. Honestly, it just goes against this organization’s nature.

from another source per buffalo rumblings

According to my source, it was Buffalo Bills head coach Dick Jauron who initiated the interest in Owens and relayed that interest to the Bills front office.

Divisive! Already!
