August 1, 200422 yr i wonder what utility player they are gonna bring up from the topes joe dillon finally?
August 1, 200422 yr If Nunez plays well, and proves himself in KC, then I won't think anything of any of his comments. Maybe he should've played a lot more. If he sucks, I will laugh at him. He's 0-1 so far in KC.
August 2, 200422 yr I'm glad your not making the lineup desicion. 488397[/snapback] How can you defend Enc's season? I'm curious. He has more rbis? :lol He makes up for it with his defense? I don't think so. 488401[/snapback] Shoulder Injury. That affected a certain Marlin this season as well. 488430[/snapback] Conine's getting better, Enc is getting worse. Let's face it Enc at his best is still not very good. 488433[/snapback] And Wil Cordero is? Your memory serves you incorrectly. 488437[/snapback] If he comes back healthy and hitting the way we he has his whole career those no question he's an improvement over Enc. 488446[/snapback] That's a big IF 488461[/snapback] I think Fran is still bitter. Encarnacion is a very nice player to have, especially since he can hit for power, drive in runs, has large defensive range, and the last time he made an error was in god knows when... 488623[/snapback] I am not being bitter, it's not like I'm just making this stuff up about Enc sucking, it's a proven fact that he has sucked this year and has been nothing more than a below average starter his whole career.

And his defense isn't that bad methinks...
August 2, 200422 yr :plain rbis are the most useless stat in baseball. Any stat that depends on other players, is useless in evaluating one players performance. P.S. That's the 1249827329462984918284724982 time I've said that in the last 3 days.

August 2, 200422 yr Whereas Penny and Hee Seop Choi were saddened upon learning of their departure, Nunez was not feeling is mutual, sad to see Hee Seop and Penny go and happy to see Nunez gone.
August 2, 200422 yr "[The Royals] already told me I'm going to play every day," Nunez said. "I want to show them what [the Marlins] were doing was an abuse and that they were very wrong." Oh Boo Friggin hoo. Maybe in that little feable mind of his, he thinks he's the second coming of Ted Williams or something. Maybe once he does get to play everyday and prove just how much he really sucks, then he can get on with his life and be happy already. I'm so happy to be rid of OMGNunez :plain
August 2, 200422 yr Nunez is awesome he just never got a chance to show it. Glad he can start everyday now in KC. Now Mota and Benitez at the end of ball games is pretty scary IMO. If it wasnt for Mota Gange wouldnt of had that streak of 83 consecutive saved games, heard this from BBTN.

August 2, 200422 yr I think Enc slept with Farmers girlfriend and he is very bitter . To tell you the truth Farmer Fran is one of the most Negative poster on this forum and quite frankly is starting to annoy the living crap out of me .
August 2, 200422 yr Author I think Enc slept with Farmers girlfriend and he is very bitter . To tell you the truth Farmer Fran is one of the most Negative poster on this forum and quite frankly is starting to annoy the living crap out of me . 489827[/snapback] Because he doesnt agree with a trade? Please. Maybe unlike a lot of memebers on the boards he isnt all over Beinfest and does think he is capable of making a mistake. Either way there is no point of arguing this anymore. Only time can tell now who this trade will favor.
August 2, 200422 yr I'm no fan of Encarnacion, that's no secret, but he's a Fish again and I'm behind him 100%. Let's hope moving back to a smaller market will ignite his bat and he can contribute to another playoff run.
August 2, 200422 yr I think Enc slept with Farmers girlfriend and he is very bitter . To tell you the truth Farmer Fran is one of the most Negative poster on this forum and quite frankly is starting to annoy the living crap out of me . 489827[/snapback] :lol You guys need to lighten up. I'm not one of the most negative posters here. I just happen to not agree with everyone about this trade. I didn't know it was a crime to not agree with everyone else on the board.

ENC SUCKS! I DON'T LIKE THIS TRADE! I DON'T LIKE IT!!" stuff. We get it. You don't like it.

I'll let the players do the talking on the field.

August 2, 200422 yr Whether you agree about the trade is one thing, but to make statements like RBIs do not matter, suggests a lack of knowledge. Sure you need men on base but if you cant knock them in, it does no good! Example is Choi who Ferry called a stud, because he had a decent obp but was not a good hitter with guys in scoring position. No coincidence the Dodgers batting him 6/7 either. Right now, he is a little more than a punch and judy hitter. He does not scare the opposition.
August 2, 200422 yr What's all the fascination with Cordero? The guy is an average hitter at best who is more injury prone than anyone on the team

He does not scare the opposition. 490036[/snapback] I'm not saying rbis is not a significant team stat, but to try to figure out the value of a player based on rbis is ludicrous. An example One player hits 30 homers, has a batting average around .350 and slugging percentage over .500. Yet he only had 100 at-bats with runners on. He's hitting over .300 with runners on. Other player hits 5 homers, a batting average below .200, and a slugging percentage around .350. Yet he has 300 at-bats with runners on. He's hitting .150 with runners on. The 2nd player will have more rbis than the 1st simply because the hitters infront of him did a better job than the hitters in front of the first player did for him. Now who had the better season, and who would you rather have on your team?
