Jabroni

He has... http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/bvsp?pitcherId=4422 Carl is 5 for 13 with a double, triple, 4 RBI's, 2 BB's, and 1 K against Westbrook. Frank is 1 for 6 with 1 RBI and 1 K against Westbrook.

He either could be telling the truth or he could be saying that to increase his trade value. If every team knows that Chavez is readily available, they won't want to give up as much for him. In any case, either Cruddy starts performing or we will have to make a move for a 3rd baseman.

Strangely, that is the exact number of earned runs he gave up on April 14th against the Indians.

I want Frank back first. Also, I'd rather spend money on a good 3rd baseman than overpay PaulieGIDP.

Thanks for the guarantee, Kenny. :headshake

There is no way the Twins will be asking for Rafael Furcal. He is going to be a free agent and the Twins won't be able to afford him. They would most likely be trading Jacque Jones to the Braves for Andy Marte and/or Wilson Betemit.

Cuz you just know that Crede's numbers are going to be better than Chavez's all season long. :rolly

I hope you're right, Mr. "modern day Nostradamus."

Anyone know if Frank will be DH'ing tonight?

By the way, who is this "Preton Wilson" you speak of?

Is that just a hunch or do you have inside info? If so...

We aren't. Preston Wilson is just a more expensive version of Jermaine Dye that has some speed and can play CF. We aren't going to add another outfielder when we already have 4 that can start -- Podsednik, Rowand, Dye, and Everett -- and our DH is finally healthy. It would make absolutely no sense. Making a move for Eric Chavez, on the other hand...

How could it be Ozuna? If Ozuna is sent packing, we would have no backup 3rd baseman or true backup SS (I don't consider Willie a good backup SS).

Whatever team that claimed him would have had to pay his huge contract. No team wanted to add his salary so the Red Sox pulled him off waivers. No team wanted to add Graves' $6.25 million salary so he cleared waivers. Now any team can sign him for the MLB minimum.

Bah, Crede can do that every week!

Yeah, probably.

Maybe, or McCarthy could be a worse version of Freddy Garcia who can't keep the ball in the park at the Cell.

Beane = overrated. Although, it's not all his fault since the A's have a small payroll.

I think most people want Gload up here as soon as possible so we never have to see Timo at 1st base or see him period. With Gload on the roster, we wouldn't need Timo to pinch-hit either.

Wouldn't it be awesome if we sent down Timo so he could hang out with Ben Davis there? They could be the "Million Dollar Duo" and be worthless for Charlotte.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Would the trade involve Ozzie's personal fluffer Timo, Dingo, or Jizzcan?

He is garbage. He has speed and nothing else.

And leave us with one catcher? Not a chance.

Does anyone have ESPN Insider? I heard that Buster Olney's latest blog has the Eric Chavez to the White Sox rumor in it.
