Am I the only one who sees bed pans in the Las Vegas plan? LOL

+1 I agree 100%, the worst part is the folks who look average-ish compared to their contemporaries but were actually clean and should have been among the best of the era.

This really has nothing to do with a Buchholz trade, but dude's really gotta lose that mock turtleneck. I disagree! He can follow in Chuck Crim's footsteps.

I'm glad someone else mentioned our rivalry with the Whitesox...I always hated them and would have to say that to this day they are my least favorite team in mlb...I would cheer for the Yankees or Cubs if they were playing the Whitesox.

I think Greg's Home/Road splits should be mentioned since they are pretty severe this year and Petco is friendly to pitchers. Home: 1.64 ERA .211 Opp Avg Road: 4.75 ERA .314 Opp Avg

Our shortstops this year have posted a .306/.277/.583 line for the year good for 23rd best in the majors, while thirdbase has posted .313/.447/.760 good for 15th. While the third base obp is far too low it would look like shortstop is a larger area of concern at the moment than 3b. Perhaps moving Hall back there could be benifitial to the offense.

at least platooning Branyan at this point would be helpful.

Isn't our 1st baseman a lefty power bat? Yep our only one...and it sure isn't hurting the old o-fense is it? We need a lefty bat added to this lineup in a bad way.

Gaudin, 25 years old 2007: 34/34 199.1 4.43era 154k/100bb 2008: 6/ 6 36.0 3.75era 26k/ 10bb Bush, 28 years old 2007: 33/31 186.1 5.12era 134k/ 44bb 2008: 6/ 5 29.2 6.98era 20k/ 14bb Gaudin has only really been exclusively a starter the last 2 years and while his walk totals were bad in 2007 it isn't out of the realm of possibility that a 24/25 year old will improve his walk rate. Gaudin also pitches in the AL which means he would benifit from facing the pitcher.

Because it would be nice to have a lefty power bat in the lineup to help ease our absulute crapitude against RHP.

I kinda have to figure that this would be a no brainer even if we had to include a good prospect as well...even more so if I could move one of our current corner OF for a good young SP as well.
