What's more pleasant to listen to?
Reds fans cheering a hit? Or Cubs fans stunned into silence?

because masset is the long man

With that value that he has, you can get a lot back for a guy like that.

You’ve got a huge glut of guys that are coming up in the next 3 years that need a place to play, they’re not all going to be able to play for the Reds.

by BK on Apr 23, 2009 5:04 PM EDT up reply actions
true
My dream situation would be EE trade, frazier 3B, votto or alonso to left…..I think you keep both if you can
Every scout in the world says Alonso plays first and first only
no matter what he says. in case no one’s noticed, he’s pretty sure he can fly if necessary
every said tht Pete Rose could only play 2B too
Alonso is convinced that he can play 3b
eventually we’ll see
!B Yonder
3B Fraziedr
LF Votto
I want to be there when a trailer full of coffins slams into a an ambulance full of terminally ill Bolivians. Or when the Reds win a WS..whichever comes first....
Yeah, I've been pimping the "Trade Encarnacion" train of thought for awhile
Not because I don’t like him, but I think he’s the part that hurts least to lose.
by Brendanukkah on Apr 23, 2009 5:06 PM EDT up reply actions
I'd be fine with that, as long as Frazier keeps his D up
but if you’re going with that plan, you need to start teaching Yonder to play another position. He’s been playing 1b half the time and DHing the rest in Sarasota so far this year. I’d rather see him move over Votto just because Votto has been very good defensively at first so far.
"I can eat mayonnaise with a spoon." - Jeff Brantley
by BK on Apr 23, 2009 5:08 PM EDT up reply actions
Yeah, why not at least try him at a different position in Sarasota?
Just make sure he knows that he’s being kept around for his hitting, and playing decent defense would just be a bonus.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
It doesn't make sense to me either.
It almost seems like for some reason, they’re making him prove he can hit Florida State League pitching, like he wasn’t facing competition that good at Miami.
"I can eat mayonnaise with a spoon." - Jeff Brantley
by BK on Apr 23, 2009 5:10 PM EDT up reply actions
seems like it would be hard to move him
what with the major league contract
Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand
We'll see
And if they decide that they want to move him or Votto to LF, they’ll have to trade Frazier. My point is, at least one of the guys in that class gets traded eventually.
"I can eat mayonnaise with a spoon." - Jeff Brantley
by BK on Apr 23, 2009 5:06 PM EDT up reply actions
Trade who?
I wouldn’t hate trading Alonso if it brought huge return, especially with Frazier playing LF right now in AA
he's traded for something at the break or in the off-season
Just like the Brewers did with their 1st base stud last season
My thoughts exactly
Even though LaPorta’s a stud, I still don’t think the Brewers are regretting that decision.
