The only way Dukes is anywhere near a baseball field is if he is delivering furniture to the clubhouse. The guy is a first class idiot

 

 

 

If Milton Bradley is still in the big leagues with that legit contract of his, Elijah Dukes will sign a minor league contract with a team willing to give him a chance, sooner or later. Some team will give him a chance, sooner or later. He can play.

Dukes wasn't able to sign with anyone in 2010, ended up having to play independent ball.

 

EDIT: Apparently Dukes retired.

1-year bet. 3-month ban for Iowa if he signs. 3-month ban for Erick if he doesn't. GOOOOOOOOO

I think the guy picking against the retired player signing with a team will win.

^He did (retire)?

If that's the case, I most certainly will take that bet :lol

 

Free agent Joe Crede is gearing for a comeback after sitting out 2010 following back surgery.

 

"He's healthy, ready to go and he's going to continue his career. He's ready to come back and play," agent Scott Boras said. A team in need of a cheap third baseman could do worse than to take a flier on Crede. He's a poor bet to stay healthy, but he could be an adequate regular at a bargain price.

 

Was always a fan of this guys defense. Could be an interesting idea

I agree; however, this would still leave Coghlan in CF. It's seriously going to happen, isn't it? :confused

Unless we pull a major deal for Rasmus or Ellsbury (who are both having issues with their teams, but are still probably going to cost more than Beinfest is willing to give up), then yeah, probably Cogz, in my opinion.

I'm not sure why you have Baker on your bench as he won't ready until the later part of the season. Not sure about money wise but if I'm GM I go out and get a veteran outfielder (one that can play CF) and then maybe see about another catcher, if none then go with a Hayes/Davis on the bench and as always look for pitching all the while staying within my budget.

 

 

 

Not ready to catch; he'll be ready to hit.

 

If that is the way they are going to go then you still need a back up catcher. Hayes or Davis would work.

 

Why not keep Baker on the DL until he is 100%? He may not be suited to just coming off the bench to PH from time to time. It could be a wasted roster spot.
