July 11, 200322 yr Guys, I am back from Italy now. I see we are over .500 and under 5 games of WC berth (2 predictions I thought would be necessary for us to happen by AS break in order to keep this team together :cool :mischief ). And since this is happening, what is the story with Juan Gon or even Burnitz? This topic has surfaced on ESPN boards too...
July 11, 200322 yr I'm with Ramp on Gonzalez !!! This year, 23 Homeruns, 65 RBIs Last seven days, 5 Homeruns, 11 RBIs WOW WOW WOW Sure could of used him against the Cubs!!!!!!!
July 11, 200322 yr I think the adjustment is too big...Nitz knows the pitching and the ballparks. Juan is used to offense friendly AL and his own hitter dominant home park. But I could be totally wrong.
July 11, 200322 yr Yea, Burnitz would be great to have obviously, but I would have to go with Juan Gon. Maybe I would be persuaded because Burnitz knows NL pitchin and Gonzalez doesn't, but Juan is the better player.
July 11, 200322 yr But I could be totally wrong. I think you're totally wrong. :shifty Juan easily has the home run power of Burnitz, if not more. Plus he's hit everywhere he's been.

July 11, 200322 yr Juan-gone burnitz is just having a lucky season but juan always does good! There's no such thing as a "lucky" season...
July 11, 200322 yr i know u are but wat am i j/k look at last season he hit like .250 and this year is his best since 1999 .
July 11, 200322 yr i know u are but wat am i j/k look at last season he hit like .250 and this year is his best since 1999 . Which means it isn't lucky. He's always had the ability to do this well.
July 11, 200322 yr I Like Burnitz but Juan Gonzalez is having a big year. He has like 15+ Homers? He is doing great and he ha been in this game a long time. I would pick Juan Gon
July 11, 200322 yr I Like Burnitz but Juan Gonzalez is having a big year. He has like 15+ Homers? He is doing great and he ha been in this game a long time. I would pick Juan Gon Burnitz, 18 HR's Gonzalez, 23 HR's
July 11, 200322 yr I wouldnt mind having either one of them,they would both make the team better in there own ways. But if i had to choose one I would go with juan gon, because I think he would help out by adding some sure power in the line-up.
July 12, 200322 yr Author Cmon, no such thing as a lucky season? Brady Anderson hitting 50 HRs wasnt a little bit lucky? Anyway, Juan Gone is a no-brainer. The guy is an RBI machine and has tremendous power. He would totally change our lineup and greatly enhance our offense immediately. Burnitz would improve it, but I truthfully would have to re-consider sending Cabs down if we got Burnitz. With Juan Gone, Cabs is down - no question.
