can we trade him for EE?

his contract right now is better than the three years and 50 I was gonna

offer him last year. No offense or not, Uncle Walt was smart not to do that

LOL @ this from Wikipedia

His power and size have earned him the nickname “Big Country.”[citation needed] His attitude has earned him the nickname “The Big Donkey” for his apparent lack of care.

To be fair

That was what he said the Reds’ rationale was. He wasn’t passing that off as his own point of view, or saying that what our present LF defense has done was superior.

So, let me get this straight

you asked “the Reds” on this one, and that’s what they told you?

If Dickerson goes to the DL...

Why not bring him up now? It’s not like we really need more outfielders on the bench.

Let me write out a formal proof for you.

by Gray on Apr 27, 2009 9:59 PM EDT up reply actions  

That's what I was thinking, but

Dusty seems incapable of thinking outside the box. More likely they bring up Wes Bankston

His line is .346/.403/.750 through tonight

So yeah, but you know he’d be buried beneath NixCherry

Rosales could actually play some.

And his line is .426/.492/.770

I heard no minority player cares

Seriously in the sMarty hall of fame, besides Dunn, has there ever been a white player who didn’t care or was a cancer? I’ve been listening to him since he was saying ED was lazy, Larkind didn’t know his play, Rijo was weird, Dibble was crazy, Dunn was worthless, and Griffey didn’t care and was lazy.

I except the Dibble thing, since he was obviously insane (steroids, cough, cough). Can anyone remember another cracker sMarty hated?

Oh, and he was playing 3B

But if he got called up, where the hell would he play?

I can't blame Dusty's pitching selection tonight

It amazes me that Cordero can only pitch in a saving situation…talk about a pile of money for average results

He was due for a blow up

He wasn’t going to be this lights out all year.

At least this way we didn’t have a 14 inning game that killed the pen because the team couldn’t score a damn run……

just trying to find the silver lining

Right.

That could have resulted in another DL trip for Harang.

I don't, either

Seems like he has a tendancy to implode every fourth or fifth game.

Dunn switched out for defensive purposes in the 8th, with the Nats up 11-7

Phillies score 6 in the 8th, and Dunn’s spot comes up in the ninth with a runner on. Some managers never learn.
