    The thing with Marcum, I think the book is out on him. The St. Loius pitchers are just laying off all the balls he throws and waiting till he grooves one down the middle. His MO is getting batters to swing at balls. If they aren't swinging at balls.....he's in serious trouble. His strikes don't miss bats.

    We're giving our season to Shawn "My pitches haven't missed a bat in a month" Marcum......not looking good. That and our defense is worse than team Montana in the Little League World Series.

    This team is hard to watch

    I think it's a stretch to say they were "very catchable." If that was the case he would have been given errors. Morgan has been solid defensively all season. Not on Gomez's level, but not many are. I didn't say they were "routine" just very catchable. He's consistently gotten bad breaks on the ball. You proved my point by saying he's not to Gomez's level......he isn't hitting so get him out of there. Gomez brings much more to the table right now. We need all the defense we can get at this point.
  5. Big Cat Dad
    He is not a very good outfielder. He missed two very catchable balls in that big inning. I think Gomez makes them both. He did the same in the Arizona series. Not a big fan of his defense in center.

    Read the latest quote.

    Unbelievable. UeckerAddict hit the nail on the head. The funny part to me is that people basically want Melvin to burn the organizational depth so they can feel better for the next two months, and then just go back to complaining for the next 2 or 3 seasons. I'm glad we're on a skid.....if we actually trade for anyone and give up prospects I'll flip out. We aren't good.....pretty plain and simple.

    Every time I read an article on Bill Hall, it's like finger nails on a chalk board. He just rubs me the wrong way.

    I guarantee If I caught a milestone ball I'd hold in ransom, auction it off or just keep it. These punks became millionaires off people like me and they are by in large.....pretty thankless. I'm not going to feel sorry for a rich baseball player (who generally treat fans like pieces of meat or don't even acknowledge them) and give it to him for free to stick on his mantle. No way.

    don't give doug to much credit......he actually interviewed the moron.
  11. Big Cat Dad
    A truer statement could not have been written. I've said that for years.

    I guess I'm being a little over dramatic with the "mortgaging our future" line, however, I still feel (my opinion obviously) we gave up way to much for the OPPORTUNITY to make the playoffs. Remember, we got a lot of help in getting to the playoffs last year. What if we didn't make it? Would it have been worth it then or just because we made it? I don't care one bit about Laporta's attitude. I'm sure he's a lot better than many of you are pointing out. I think Manny Ramirez has a horrible attitude too but I'd take his stick in the line-up every day and twice on Sunday's. He also has won a couple of World Series trophies. (Not saying Laporta is Manny either, just a great prospect with a possible great future.) Attitudes are WAY overrated in baseball. Give me guys who can hit.
  13. Big Cat Dad
    I hope you're being sarcastic. Mortgaging your future on a one and done in the play-offs isn't very intelligent. I hated the trade when it happend, when we made the playoffs (lucky by the way) and I hate it now......dumb trade. We got to the playoffs.....woo-hoo.....with no chance at actually making a realistic push to the World Series.
  14. Big Cat Dad
    Why???? Is there a rule that you are not allowed to release players who you have under contract? Last time I checked no, this is the kind of Ned Yost attitude that got us nowhere. The mariners released Richie when he proved to not be a major league player anymore, Detroit with Sheff (hahaha) and so on. Right now it is a serious legitimate OPTION to outright release Jeff Suppan. I do not think they should do this because teams always get banged up and there may be a point when he is the best option we have to start, but right now I do not think he is a major league caliber pitcher and he should not be on a major league roster.My exact feelings on the matter. Putting him in the bullpen solves nothing. He will still be throwing BP fastballs when he's in the pen (or walking people). He gives this team NOTHING positive right now. We can have some AAA scrub come up and pitch mop up duty...don't need soup to do that. Is anyone on this site willing to have Soup pitch in any high leverage situation out of the pen....didn't think so.
  15. Big Cat Dad
    The thing I don't get is why everyone is so quick to throw him in the bullpen. I'm confident that this team is better off with him "not on it". Cut him loose. I don't care if the guy is making 25 million a year.....he's not a MLB pitcher and has no business on this roster.....PERIOD.
  16. Big Cat Dad
    I'm the exact opposite. You don't get thrown out at home with less than 2 outs.....getting thrown out at third with 1 out....not as big of a booboo.
  17. Big Cat Dad
    Just wanted everyone to take a little peak at this beautiful thread. Retractions anyone? Have a little foresight people.
  18. Big Cat Dad
    I could care less about this teams current position....I just care about where this team ends up. This was a very flawed team before the trade and that hasn't changed since.
  19. Big Cat Dad
    It's not hindsight from me....I didn't like the trade then...don't like it now.....never will. I said at the time of the deal "taking nothing away from C.C. we have WAY to many holes on this team". I stated we need bullpen help, true lead-off hitter, better defensive players.....we are not just one player away. Just "Going to the playoffs" is not good enough for me. I could care less if we get to the playoffs and get swept or lose in the 1st round. We are not a World Series team this year. If they turn it around and get there....I will gladly come back and eat crow. World Series or bust. If we don't make the World Series this year....it was a bad trade. You proved exactly why it was a bad trade when talking about small market teams. If we want to build a perennial contender then we CAN'T make these kinds of trades. Looks like my foresight is better than your hindsight.
  20. Big Cat Dad
    Are you implying this isn't a desperate team....come on. I don't understand all this "It reeks/smacks of desperation" crap. Duh! We are desperate and if they aren't they should be.
  21. Big Cat Dad
    It's becoming comical…..just downright hilarious how pathetic this team is. The quotes about how "We're a different team this year….we learned from last year"……a big LOL to that. This team sucks and this is the prime reason we shouldn't have traded for Sabathia. Way to many holes and losers to actually WIN a playoff series. We just sold our souls for a playoff push and possible playoff berth that will result in a quick exit if they get there. This team is just unwatchable and is becoming even hard to cheer for.
  22. Big Cat Dad
    Ned is the dumbest man alive.....nothing more to say.
  23. Big Cat Dad
    An inning like this is a prime example of why i hate the save stat We had the heart of the Cardinals order coming up and instead of bringing in our clear best relief pitcher to face those three hitters, Ned brought in Riske because it wasn't the 9th inning. exactly danzig....I was thinking this before the inning ever started. It was a "No Brainer" obviously.....which is why Ned is at a true disadvantage.
  24. Big Cat Dad
    Probably would be enough for the toilet paper located in all of the bathrooms.
  25. Big Cat Dad
    great....another injury for Weeks. This should allow the Brewers to hang onto him for another year or two and continue to make excuses for him.
