    Arroyo has been better than Suppan this year, ERA not withstanding (4.41 vs 4.93 FIP). He's also two years younger which makes his probability of a totally collapse over the next two years lower. That said he costs less over the next two season as compared to Suppan meaning the Reds would be expecting some compensation.. Arroyo's owed $22.5m while Suppan's owed $27m.

    Why? He's a cheap adequate player. Yes they could spend money and/or talent on improving, but considering they have to fix a rotation first I don't think its a high priority.

    Its not an idea, its a fact. Braun was historically terrible. To pretend that somehow that he through hard work was gong to become decent is just fanciful thinking. He didn't have the skills and no amount of work was going to improve his terrible range. So yes Gamel is better bet to be a major league 3B. Will he definately stick? I don't know but that isn't a decision that they have to make a real call on for another year.
  4. endaround
    Braun is the worst major league 3B anyone alive has ever seen

    Hardy's LD% is 14.4% while his BABIP is .303, so about 50 points higher than would be expected given how he has actually hit the ball. Hardy going forward will likely hit between his career numbers and what he did last year (so about a 775 OPS with a 330 OBP), making him very good bat at short and a multiple All Star in the AL, a decent 2B and a 3B that is ho hum and everyone would look to upgrade. And in general players in their prime don't change positions in the major leagues.

    JJ Hardy-yep he's streaky!
  7. endaround
    The heat shouldn't bother them, Hardy is so cold that it must be like air conditioning in the dugout
  8. endaround
    Realize that he has been lucky this year and still doesn't have the bat for 3B and trade him.

    I mean Yost would play Damian Miller on LaCrosse day so can we get a Rio Piedras day so Mike Rivera can play and Jason Kendall can sit every now and then?
  10. endaround
    If you are going to have Kendall bunt just hit him 9th already-or you know play Rivera once every two weeks
  11. endaround
    Hardy gets to a ball every short stop gets to, no run
  12. endaround
    Did Branyan tell Yost off or something? Is he hurt? Seriously, Counsell again at 3B?
  13. endaround
    Suppan pitched poorly-he was missing his spots all game. Now he also pitched terribly against the Cubs in his first start and merged unscathed, but that doesn't mean he pitched really well.
  14. endaround
    No the #2 player in the draft, if a position player should get to the major leagues, that's it. You have a really warped view of the draft otherwise. And given Fielder's not batting leadoff in this reality, who better than Weeks?
  15. endaround
    The problem with the trade was is that instead of Manny they could have gotten Bay (obviously) and they went with the guy who can't play defense and is only around for 2 months.
  16. endaround
    Kapler is much more a free swinger than Cameron-Free swinger does not mean few strikeouts-it means swing at everything which is what Kapler does. Kapler's success this year is all BABIP driven.
  17. endaround
    Cameron and Hart are both better players than Kapler. But hey going with Hall's hot hand worked so well lets throw Kapler in there!
  18. endaround
    Co-ed suites are certainly possible. Many colleges have co-ed floors with shared bathrooms now. Marquette puts 6 freshmen in like closets.
  19. endaround
    What no thread talking about the Cubs losing to the Bayless Pirates at home? I mean I was sure there would be something about how this means the Brewers are the worst team in the NL Central.
  20. endaround
    He started because Yost viewed him as an OBP guy. At least that what came from his morning press conference before the game. And that's why he batted 2nd to boot. Now why Counsell is an OBP guy when he hasn't had a decent OBP since 2005 is well a mystery.
  21. endaround
    As soon as you call Fielder a free swinger you've lost
  22. endaround
    Sabathia would laugh at 6yrs/$120 m. 7 yrs/$150 million is the ball park. He wants a Santana type contract who got 6yrs/$143m while actually still being under contract for one year.
  23. endaround
    So how does trading for a mediocre hitter with no defense help the White Sox?
  24. endaround
    Why not give him a shot? He has had a shot, and he's stunk. The faster he gets away from Milwaukee the happier I'll be so people don't keep clamoring for a terrible option to get a starting job.
  25. endaround
    Cameron's OPS was 840 on July 19-yes he hit a cold patch but pretending he's stunk just shows how shortsighted one can be
