December 19, 200322 yr A nice 4th outfielder, this guy was a ballplayer, speed, defense, contact, hey if hes cheap why not, also what about tony clark for cheap, it seemed like every game he did something well against the marlins, if choi blows he can have a few games other names that were intersting were john burkett(5th starter till aj's back) and lidle
December 19, 200322 yr I'm thinking more about Helling, Jose Lima, or even Kenny Rogers... And I like Owens.
December 19, 200322 yr Author I'm thinking more about Helling, Jose Lima, or even Kenny Rogers... And I like Owens. Helling and Lima are homerun happy, and rogers is a wreck and asked for alot of cash
December 19, 200322 yr I would like to se ehim return to the marlins. He was a quality 4th of or even a starter at times during his tenure with us.
December 19, 200322 yr Owens sucks. He is the worst defensive replacement in baseball. The guy was a butcher in the outfield. :hat
December 20, 200322 yr Lima time would be so perfect for this team and city it isn't even funny. :shifty
December 20, 200322 yr I like Eric Owens. Please refresh my memory... didn't he also play some center field for us? And I like John Burkett. A solid, smart veteran.
December 20, 200322 yr Bring back Owens. I'd rather have him than Hollandsworth. Wait...didn't we just get Banks back?
December 20, 200322 yr Eric Owens is hated in Anaheim. He started the 1st 4 months batting .200 then got fire in the last month. He was called the "Rally Killer!"
December 20, 200322 yr As 83gator said in another post on the site today -- Helling can't be signed til May 1, right?
December 20, 200322 yr Keep Owens away from the Marlins! I still have nightmares of him misplaying balls in the outfield.
December 20, 200322 yr Owens was a poor man's JP. A JP that hit .240 and played poor outfield. But he hustled and that was why I liked him!
December 20, 200322 yr Owens was a poor man's JP. A JP that hit .240 and played poor outfield. But he hustled and that was why I liked him! I always liked him, unafraid to run into the outfield wall....
December 20, 200322 yr As 83gator said in another post on the site today -- Helling can't be signed til May 1, right? right, we didn't offer him arbitration so he, Pudge, and Urbina cannot be back until May 1st...
December 21, 200322 yr Burkett is 39 or 40. There's no need for him. Another former Marlin... So are Charlie Hough and Andre Dawson.
December 21, 200322 yr Burkett is 39 or 40. There's no need for him. If he can still produce decently, he brings very valuable experience to our young guys.
December 21, 200322 yr No need to worry about Owens, all indications say he'll play for the Phillies with his old college teammate Billy Wagner.
