July 30, 200321 yr no team is gonna take Kendall..... unless Giles goes too Giles is out of the question with this team..... Cabs has 22rbi in 111ab i think, Drew has 29rbi in 190ab i think.... Naughty Ramp....RBI arnt a very good skill indicator. why not? If a guy gets 120 RBI+ you dont think that is something special? Id rather take a guy who hits for power, walks, and plays good defense then look at RBI. RBI isnt a number used to evaluate skill.

Naughty Ramp....RBI arnt a very good skill indicator. i know that but it shows what he has done in 80 less abs.... .866ops for Cabs and Drew's is .873 pretty darn close oh and Drew has a history of breaking and getting hurt... We need a power lefty so bad, trust me...If he gets hurt just throw Cabs back in there...its not like we are giving up the farm for Drew. Cabs could even play a little 1B until Lee comes back...and could possibly stay up to platoon with Drew against lefties.

RBI's tell you alot about player productivity on offense but I'm not surprise coming from you.
July 30, 200321 yr Encarnancion is cheap and his still has untap potential. Hes going to get expensive in the next 2 years.
July 30, 200321 yr Hes going to get expensive in the next 2 years. Not really..His salary won't go up too much unlike your boy Lee.

RBI's tell you alot about player productivity on offense but I'm not surprise coming from you. Would you say they are a better measure of power then HR's? Or maybe a better indicator of plate discipline then walks? Or PERHAPS! a better measure of batting average then hits? Please. Its just a stat used by the media which you readily accept, and doesnt really explain any skill a player has. But can we please not argue about this? Its not like you are going to all of sudden stop being hard headed.
July 30, 200321 yr Not really..His salary won't go up too much unlike your boy Lee. Maybe because Lee will be a GG defender and will hit 35 HR's? lol, please think these things out before you start typing away.
July 30, 200321 yr Question are the Marlins looking to keep Drew or rent him? he would cost $4mil+ in arb next year..... same probably goes for Enc too(maybe a little less)
July 30, 200321 yr Maybe because Lee will be a GG defender and will hit 35 HR's? lol, please think these things out before you start typing away. Yes it sucks being second in the team in hr with 22 and Encarnancion has a little less than half of his hr's but has more rbi's.His hitting is nothing to rave about. bottom line Encarnancion will be cheaper and worth keeping at next year price tag compare to Lee.
July 30, 200321 yr he would cost $4mil+ in arb next year..... same probably goes for Enc too(maybe a little less) Good news... I think Beinfest is thinking Cabrera at 1b next year while Drew and Encarncion patrol the OF.
July 30, 200321 yr he would cost $4mil+ in arb next year..... same probably goes for Enc too(maybe a little less) this is true and that is why getting drew is a great move. This year he would fit perfect on bench unless cabs or encarnacion starts to play bad, he serves as great insurance for them. Then next year for similar price tags i would rather have JD in right, especially if encarnacion continues on his hitting slump.
July 30, 200321 yr Next year the marlins will probably trade Lee in the off season and sign and keep Drew and Juan. Cabs will probably take over at first. Or maybe Drew goes to first since he's a lefty and is less likely to get injured there.
July 30, 200321 yr either way - a deal to get Drew here would help the marlins this year and for years to come!
July 30, 200321 yr Id rather take a guy who hits for power, walks, and plays good defense then look at RBI. RBI isnt a number used to evaluate skill. yeah because Encarnacion certainly can't play defense.... RBIs may not be your idea of a skill number... How about games missed to injury, does that one count for you?
July 30, 200321 yr I was told that the deal for Drew has been on going for the last 3 weeks and that the Marlins just pulled the plug on the deal. Also, Diamondback Dave Delucchi (sp) just got a call during dinner that he was traded to New York.

July 30, 200321 yr this is driving me crazy pulled the plug.... is that a go or a no? I'm guessing a no but I hope it is a go.
