December 11, 200421 yr what do you guys think about picking him up? i think it would be a nice move, as long as we can trade encarnacion for a bucket of sunflower seeds
December 11, 200421 yr He'd be a very solid RF for us... but I've heard Atlanta is making a push for him. Hits very well w/RISP.. and also hits RHP just as well as LHP.
December 11, 200421 yr yea i thought about him too, but i rahther wait and see what the O's do with Gibons
December 11, 200421 yr There were many comments regarding trading for Bautista last season. He would be a great pick-up, no doubt.
December 12, 200421 yr I would like to get him. Almost anyone is better than Juan. And if we can get rid of Juan in the process then it would be great!
December 12, 200421 yr No one is taking on Juan, dammit. I hope he hits 40 homers to shut all of you up.
December 12, 200421 yr No one is taking on Juan, dammit. I hope he hits 40 homers to shut all of you up. 632685[/snapback] Me too if we keep him.
December 12, 200421 yr Author No one is taking on Juan, dammit. I hope he hits 40 homers to shut all of you up. 632685[/snapback] i sure hope so but i sure as hell aint countin on it
December 12, 200421 yr yea i thought about him too, but i rahther wait and see what the O's do with Gibons 632574[/snapback] The o's want Magglio, which may or may not leave Baltimore with an extra outfielder.
December 12, 200421 yr No one is taking on Juan, dammit. I hope he hits 40 homers to shut all of you up. 632685[/snapback] correct and ill take 40 XBH
December 12, 200421 yr Please anyone but Juan, This guy has had 8 season in the big and he's nothing but a medicore outfielder he averages 14 homeruns and 58 RBIs and he's a career .265 hitter, this is a guy that was supposed to be a 30-30 player and he's never even had a 20 homerun season. I think we'll be lucky to get a bucket of sunflower seeds. Bautista is a good solid player but i'd love to see Gibbons here.

Bautista is a good solid player but i'd love to see Gibbons here. 632824[/snapback] he hit 24 a few years ago(in which most of his games were in Cincy) per 162 games, he would average 20 and 85
December 12, 200421 yr No one is taking on Juan, dammit. I hope he hits 40 homers to shut all of you up. 632685[/snapback] If Encarcion (ala McKeon) could learn to lay off the slider down and away, his BA would jump at least 20 points. Juan could very well have a break-out year coming up.
December 12, 200421 yr If we trade encarnacion for an upgrade over him good....but if he stays im not too upset....i think this year after he recovers fully from the injury this offseason can put up AT LEAST his 2003 numbers

December 12, 200421 yr My bad, 4 hours of studying for my statistics final really didn't do much for my eyes. But this is a man that at one time was considered to be a major five tool player every year we keep sayin he's gonna have a breakout year but it just never happens.
