  1. Jerry Crasnick with four consecutive tweets on Cain.
  2. If Melvin trades Fielder for Loney and Broxton he should be fired on the spot.
  3. Age matters. When you're the second youngest player in your league and post an .800 OPS which is top 15ish in that league, it means you know what you're doing with the bat.
  4. Minorleaguesplits.com took their site down and I don't want to start a whole argument, but Gamel was better against lefties than righties. He even did an interview about it in 2009 about how he felt more comfortable against lefties.
  5. Why would you think that? BA had him rated as the 15th best prospect in baseball in their midseason rankings ahead of Kyle Drabek (main piece in the Halladay deal), Casey Kelly (main piece in the Adrian Gonzalez deal). What qualifies as a stud prospect to you?
  6. Pitchers lose velocity as they put more wear on their arms. Dave Bush went from 89.7 in his rookie year to 89.1, 89.2, two years of 88.7, to 87.9 to 86.5. From 2004 to 2010 he lost 3.2 mph on his fastball. Marcum went from 89.4 in his rookie year to 88.1 to 87.8 to 86.8 to 87.1. He's already losing velocity. Over 2 mph since his rookie year. I don't know how that's not a concern if that trend keeps up.
  7. Funny, I don't understand why we always need to win now. Especially when we almost always fail miserably at it.

  9. http://twitter.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/11648712132526080 http://twitter.com/Ken_Rosenthal/status/11648990403624962 Not sure I even want to give him a long term deal.
  10. That whole thing was a joke. For Marcum the answer is no, yes, no, no.
  11. No. I just don't feel this team is in a position to be giving up top prospects for non-ace pitchers who only have two years of control left.
  12. Sarnia native Nick Bucci might be in the deal too. Let's send another Canadian in the deal. Doug Melvin.
  13. So looking this over. 1. Giving up our best prospect 2. Already had Tommy John surgery and is 29 with only two more years of control. 3. Has an average fastball under 88 mph in his career. Safe to say I hate this deal.
  14. Haudricourt is saying they might have had to give up Lawrie.
  15. He's totally a Doug Melvin guy. Throws about 88 mph.
  16. http://zozone.mlblogs.com/archives/2010/12/werth_close_to_signing_with_na.html http://twitter.com/TBrownYahoo/status/11539587943890944 Well that one came out of left field.
  17. There was Joaquin Benoit but Dave Dombrowski beat Melvin to the punch on overpaying him. Another who fits that description would be none other than Grant Balfour. The bonus being that we would lose our 2nd round pick for signing him.
  18. That's two more years than I'd give him.
  19. I've been using the same shovel for 15 years now.
  20. Also, not sure if it's been mentioned but the U.S. came in 2nd to Qatar. Round 1: Qatar 11 South Korea 4 United States 3 Japan 3 Australia 1 (eliminated) Round 2: Qatar 10 United States 5 South Korea 5 Japan 2 (eliminated) Round 3: Qatar 11 United States 6 South Korea 5 (eliminated) Round 4: Qatar 14 United States 8 (eliminated)
  21. It's only 9 hours ahead.
  22. I for one am shocked that he got traded to Toronto.
