July 9, 200323 yr ANYONE HERE THAT ? Peter Gammonds said that the marlins r trying to make a deal with Armando Benitez
July 9, 200323 yr My only problem with Benitez is I've seen him choke in big games, but most of the time he's lights out. Anyways he's better than anyone we got, so I wouldn't mind getting him.
July 9, 200323 yr My only question is if he would be our closer or set-up man. PLUS, I bet he has his bags packed next to the door, and ready to get the hell out of New York. Coming to a team like ours would only help him by THAT much...
July 9, 200323 yr Is this good or bad?cuz im lost now y do we want benitez! HELL YEA WE WANT BENITEZ!
July 9, 200323 yr would he replace loop????/ and loop gets demoted to set up???...i would use armando for set up, to take pressure off, he does tend to choke..
July 9, 200323 yr Benitez has 6 blown saves this year, but most were early on in the year. hes only had 2 blown saves since april 23.
July 9, 200323 yr PLUS, another All-Star...lol But still, he would be an extreally good closer or set-up man... Same goes for Loop...
July 9, 200323 yr Because he is very poor at fielding. That's what I'm trying to say, you have to put both those factors together. Vlad is fabulous in the field with a cannon for an arm, what the heck are you smoking?
July 9, 200323 yr So you're telling me put-outs are not considered when choosing who wins the Gold Glove. I think you mean assists.
July 9, 200323 yr Vlad is fabulous in the field with a cannon for an arm, what the heck are you smoking? I agree that he has a cannon for an arm, but I've seen many times ball that he should have cought or cut off get by him and make it all the way to the wall
July 9, 200323 yr Author since 2000(inluding this year) Armando benitez has 138 saves and 18 blown saves THIS GUY IS GOLD!
July 9, 200323 yr since 2000(inluding this year) Armando benitez has 138 saves and 18 blown saves THIS GUY IS GOLD! We are all well aware of the stats... My one and only question is what the hell are we giving-up. None the less, I want Benitez... Some daring soul go on the Met board and see what the hell they want... Minor-league wise from us... :lol
July 9, 200323 yr since 2000(inluding this year) Armando benitez has 138 saves and 18 blown saves THIS GUY IS GOLD! Well I don't know, weren't you the one that blasted Ugy too? We claim we need pen but can you stop bashing all of them? Benitez would be great in the setup role. Or he and Loop cna alternate because Loop is shaky.
July 9, 200323 yr Or he and Loop cna alternate because Loop is shaky. No god damn closer by committie s***!
July 9, 200323 yr i never bashed uggy or armando...(not being sarcastic) I believe me and Ramp were of few that were all for a trade for one of them...
July 9, 200323 yr No god damn closer by committie s***! That's not a committee, that's a two-headed save machine.
July 9, 200323 yr Author just out of Gammons mouth..... "Orlando Cabrera and Jose Vidro are the best DP combo..... THIS SIDE OF SOUTH FLA"
July 9, 200323 yr That's not a committee, that's a two-headed save machine. Intriguing philosophy... Tell me more... :mischief2
July 9, 200323 yr i never bashed uggy or armando...(not being sarcastic) sorry, thought it was you, my bad
