didn't vote for bonds because he'll make it anyway, but voted Grissom because he's older than dirt and kicking some ass. Reminds me of his expo days.

Sue me for voting for a Cub, but I really like Aramis Ramirez. He is exciting when you get to watch him play 3b...diving down the line rather than that lazy punk Crede.

I like Aramis Ramirez to, he is a good ball player, unfortunetly he plays for the Cubs so that is a minus...

Big Aramis fan. Love watching his potential during his Pit. dayz and I think he'll be a hellofa player for the cubs now and the future. Just 25 years old.

yeah he is by far my favorite cubby to watch.... i also like carlos zambrano because its fun to see a player with so much emotion even though some of you find him annoying

Scott Rolen >>>>>>>>>>> Aramis Ramirez

 

Don't even begin to think otherwise.

exactly, that's why i voted for the man. loretta is playing pretty well, too. he'll be a great deadline pickup.

i didn't think much of ramirez while he was in pittsburgh. I didn't get to see him play that often on tv, but i always felt he k'd too much and was a sub par fielder. but for some reason i did feel he was a good change of scenery candidate (who the hell wouldn't do better out of pittsburgh?), which he proved to be.

 

he is a solid ballplayer, but i still hate his guts.

25 years old and if he plays 12+ more seasons he can have over 400+ HR's...

Juan Pierre?? Very average D, too many caught stealing and OBP that is dropping fast lately. Grissom started out hot in April, but since then has pretty much sucked. Bonds should start and either Edmonds or Drew in CF in the 3rd spot..

 

Lee? No way. Lawton, Matsui, Crawford, Guillen and a few others have been better overall.

 

Frank should be over Hattenberg even if he will only have 10-12 games at 1B.

 

Melvyn Mora is coming back to earth and A-Rod is yet to get on a roll. Since A-Rod is much superio defensively and on the pads, all he needs to do is to come close to Mora offensively, and he should be the starting 3B.

 

C. Guillen and Uribe are great picks, though. And oyth

Scott Rolen >>>>>>>>>>> Aramis Ramirez

 

Don't even begin to think otherwise.

That's not an indictment on Ramirez (him and Alou carried the Cubs when they should have by all rights fallen behind the Astros by 8-10 games), but a testament to how f***ing studly Rolen has been so far.

 

Rolen, Ramirez, Beltre, Chavez, Glaus....that's what 3B position is all about. Big arms and bigger bats.

No way, Glaus is a freaking machine when he's healthy.

 

To add to the list of 3Bs that Brando said: Crede!!!!

Over Scott Rolen, you are crazy.

Glaus from what I've heard is somewhat of a prima donna. And apparently Angels management was furious with him when he decided to rehab his shoulder during the offseason instead of just having the surgery for it, since ultimately he needed it. I believe this is his walk year and the Angels are supposed to be high on some kid named Dallas McPherson so they'll let him walk.

 

 

Can't disagree with the other names you have on there. Rolen is the best of the bunch though by far.

Prima donna or not, the guy has shown flashes of brilliance in the past & had a .700 slugging percentage before he got injured. He's 27 years old. When healthy, he is one of the top three 3rd basemen in the majors. A gold glover with the potential to lead the AL in homers, as he did in 2000? That guy is the man.
