:hat I think it is a bad move to trade a Ray Castro, we don't even know if Pudge will come back to Miami next year. I really like what I see in Cabrera lately, call it all this trade talk or what, Miguel has recently elavated his play, maybe it is a motivation thing, i do think we could use another bat on the bench or a middle relever. GO FISH!! :hat

:banghead Miguel to the minors or Rondel a Fish?anyone .

huh.

rondell a fish were making a run here and we need a guy that can get on and get more r.b.i.'s than cab's anyways he is only 20 years old he still got a whole lot of time to play hopefully he can stay in our bench atleast this year.

we need a better offensive left fielder period and cab's has done pretty well but right now we need a veteran.

Hey I decided to compare White's stats to Cabrera's. I figured out at his current rate what Cabs numbers would be if he had the same amount of ABs as White.

 

Rondell White

BA OBP HR RBI

.273 .327 16 54

 

Miguel Cabrera (projected if he had the same amount of ABs as White)

 

BA OBP HR RBI

.243 .307 16 61

 

Other than a lower batting average Cabrera's numbers are just as good.

Doesnt Cabs Batting Stance look a little bit like Brian Giles Stance...? :mischief2

Nice study farmer...plus the added benefit of having him develop...Rondell does get on base a little more, but his defense/athleticism probably isnt near Cabs. Id say Guillen or Giles are the only SIGNIFICANT upgrades. Id still like to get Matt Stairs though.

so...just because they have similar batting stances does not mean they have the same skills. What kind of logic is that?

He might be able to...but we have Banks to backup Lee.

Yeah I know I'm just thinking he would be a good guy to come off the bench to play a little left field, right field and 1B. I'm pretty sure Stairs played 1st for the Cubs last year. Stairs is a better hitter than Banks.

Ya thats what i meant

Ya thats what i meant

yea i know, he jumped all over you for something as little as that

Man i hope we can get guillen,cuz white hasn't been hitting so good the other day he was hitting three-something and now he hitting .273,beinfest go after guillen with out a doubt!

I haven't heard no talks about Guillen. I don't even think the FO is interested in him.

I continue to say that we don't need anyone else, just get the people we have to perform like they can.

Cabrera can't be benced.

He need to play as much as possible to develope his skill.

If we get another bat (Left Field) he will go down.

Cabs needs to play everyday.

:w00t Finally! Someone who agrees with my way of thinking! :w00t

Stairs is washed up and has been for a couple of years.

 

 

If this team acquires Stairs, Beinfeist is an idiot.

Capefish and Marlingirl, I agree with both of you. I would like for us to upgrade our LF, but not at the expense of our farm system. I think we may not win the WC with our current roster, but we will come damn close. Look at the way the Marlins are taking it to the Phils...how could you vote against them right now? But I think the cost outweighs the reward at this point.

In our last 10 games we are 7-3. We have faced teams above .500 in that span. We can win the wildcard, and will win it! We are the hottest team in the wildcard race!

We are the hottest team in baseball for that matter.

Not really the Braves are as hot as us too.
