yep the twins forsaw the freak knee injury just games into Mauer ML career, but hated AJ so much because of his bad attitude that they shipped him out anyway.

more imports

If I was a mod in this forum, I'd edit the title to just say "Drew to the Doctors".

I found some stats from last year -- .333/.394/.549 -- 24 HR's 18SB's -- 6 E's

Josh, his real age, as best as can be determined without cutting him open and counting his rings, is 39... http://baseball-reference.com/h/hernaor01.shtml

Fernando Valenzuela is still pitching... W L ERA G SV IP H R ER BB SO SO/9 Valenzuela, Fernando 1 1 6.52 5 0 19.1 31 19 14 10 8 3.7 ... In the Mexican league http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/sbmf/sbmfmpib.htm

So let's say El Duque pitches 135 innings before he goes dow with his usual season ending injury, isn't that just enough time for a certain pitcher to possibly be ready to make his ML debut :ph34r

Good move... Health is the only factor... El Duque is nasty when he's healthy... The Yankees best pitcher in the second half last year. here's your ERA+ info Year Age IP ERA+ 1998 32 141.0 143 1999 33 214.1 109 2000 34 195.2 112 2001 35 94.2 92 2002 36 146.0 120 2004 138 84.2 136 ========================== Very old 876.1 116

Yahoo says 3.21 too....

His skills are much more suited for the ATF anyways

Page 2 of the Ben Davis is non-tendered thread, there was no less than 3 people saying that it was just a move so that Davis would sign for less money... acting like it was a risk that he would be anywhere else is naive. It's a standard move that plenty of teams perform. Complaining about it is just dumb... OMG, I'm so mad the sox saved money!!!

Some of you really don't understand baseball, and don't bother to actually read those that do.

yes.

:dips***

Davis has not caught a single inning of Buehrle. Burke is his personal catcher. He will be on the roster for that very reason.

Yeah, but the quotes I saw from Shoe indicate he doesn't have any desire to continue talks with us now. Boras is too busy to deal with Shoe's small potoatoes contract right now anyways.

I'm fairly confident that Miller will resign with Houston to an incentive-laden deal. I'd be suprised if the base salary was much over $2M. He wants to stay in Houston.

Yeah, Ed Wade's pissed. He gambled and lost on that one. Polanco could end up being traded. That's $4+ M he didn't count on having on the payroll. Plus draft picks.

In Kenny's defense, you don't give up someone as good as lee for a guy who was rumored to be non-tendered.

plus that one AB vs. the cubs

I said the same thing to WHarris on AIM -- That's Just KW and Sabean competing for the dumbest GM of the offseason award... Sabean doesn't want a 4th outfileder who had an OPS over .800 last year, but starts Micheal tucker. KW gives Timo $1M dollars and way too many AB's last season(though both of those probably have a lot to do with ozzie)

all non-tenders

I agree -- Schoeny in the pen, with Cotts in AAA, or winning the 5th starter battle would be great.

So he wouldn't have tried to make a play on the ball? I don't understand how ANY catcher doesn't get hit. Your logic doesn't add up.
