October 13, 200619 yr Chris Aguila has been released from the Marlins as of today. That leaves 37 on the 40 man roster...
October 13, 200619 yr I have to say that I am saurprised but I guess the 40 man roster needs to be adjusted for the new prospects He may still get invited to ST if he agrees. If he doesn't I wish him the best Good Kid just not major league talent
October 13, 200619 yr I'm glad he's off the team, but I feel sorry for the poor guy. I hope another team signs him.
October 13, 200619 yr good luck chris, I still think he could work out as a good 4th OF for some team in the majors.
October 14, 200619 yr Absolutely lost against MLB pitching Best of luck to him i think it could have to do with the lack of at bats he got 218 over 3 years
October 14, 200619 yr I always thought he had some potential, and as it turned out if he had the full season he would have been a better option than anyone else last season in what became that morass of poop in centerfield. He's better defensively than any of the slugs that played there, and it wouldn't have taken much to beat the offensive production we received from that position. But it's not a big deal. Let's move on. I wish him luck.
October 14, 200619 yr I did not expect this to happen, but YES it is clearly a move that'll make room for us to protect our main prospects from the rule V draft.
October 14, 200619 yr Might as well have RA follow right behind him reggie actually has star potential compared to aguila's bench potential expect him to stick around another year
October 14, 200619 yr Poor aguila. Ya never even got a chance. Good luck man, theres a team out there that will appreciate you and actually give you a shot to see what you got. Too bad it cant be the fish.
October 14, 200619 yr Good......he didn't impress that much anyways. I tend to agree. Chris was never anything special and really didn't show any signs of progress for the future. I wish him the best of luck though. :thumbup
October 14, 200619 yr Thank god... Aguila was a nice guy.....but my god....he was a horribly useless ball player.
October 14, 200619 yr Wow its crazy how every one is hating on Aguila. He never even really got a fair shot. If anything it should have been Reggie that got released.
October 14, 200619 yr Might as well have RA follow right behind him reggie actually has star potential compared to aguila's bench potential expect him to stick around another year WHOA! You did not just say that. What baseball have you been watching buddy? Tell me, how can you compare Reggie Abercrombie to the likes of Chirs Aguila? If I were to choose between them both I'd boot RA in a split second. Let's think here for a second, Abercrombie actually had a chance, when did Aguila get that much playing time? Can you compare them defensively? No I think Aguila takes that by a mile! Hitting wise you give Aguila a whole year and this forum wouldn't even exist! It'd be another I hate Loria thread. I am not saying he is going to be a GREAT ballplayer. But he sure will amount to more than Reggie Abercrombie, write it down, I want you to hold this against me in the future partner. At the start of the season I thought Reggie had what it took, cause he reminded me of myself in high school, a football player who turned to baseball and excelled until I got hurt, Reggie's work ethic is not in question here, but it seems to me that he turned to baseball too late. Don't judge Aguila or Reggie, let's wait it out and see.
October 14, 200619 yr Aguila should of gotten a chance to start...consistently...at some point this year. If not to start out the season. Poor guy, mark my words, he will be listed as one of the ones who got away...and it is going to suck when he plays great for another team.
