year 1 73 games

 

Year 2  136 Games

 

Year 3 160 games

 

Year 4  97 games

 

 

Those are very comparable to johnson 

 

Keep trying to sell me the crap you guys have to offer.

Have you ever thought that taking a risk, it may not be the worst possible thing to do. Every single player has a chance of missing games. Yes, even cabrera.

I respect your opinion DBHA0, but Gload looked horrendous defensively in RF last year. I think he would cost us way too many outs/runs if he is a platoon player in RF. That is just my opinion of course.

Yeah those were my thoughts too, but it's just something to consider to get Gloady into the lineup more. And Everett isn't going to be too much better defensively either in RF. A speedy, defensive outfielder would be a nice addition off the bench possibly.

This site has gone straight in the crapper as of late...

Likewise.

Forget about Gibbons anyways. The O's aren't going to non - tender him, and have begun negotiating with his agent on a new one - year deal.

Yes, even cabrera.

You're a f'n liar, take that back, TAKE THAT BACK!!!!!!!!!

So missing almost 1/2 the season in year 3 is comparbale to the 1 whole season in year 2???

 

Ahem.

 

In 2002, the Yankees signed Jason Giambi.

 

Perhaps that is why Johnson played so little games in 02 and 03!

 

If I had the choice, I'd be starting Giambi over Johnson any day.

Even they do not come to terms fairly easy, they will let him go. Like if he thinks he is worth 3 million nest year.

We have taken risks..

 

David WElls

Todd Ritice

Jamie Navaro

Albert Belle

 

Letting Ray Ray go

Not having a Solid back-up plan for Maggs

 

 

Those Risks have gotten us far

You think the Yanks wish they had Johnson now instead of Giambi.

Games in 03 were due to yeat another INjury not becuase of Giambi.

a Cheaper guy to ride the DL..naaaaa they like to waste money.

Shingo

Trading for Marte

Trading for Freddy Garcia

Not trading Konerko when his value was the lowest

Hiring Ozzie

Letting A-Row play everyday despite his early struggles

 

You're always going to have risks taken that will either backfire or pay off.

They already have a more expensive one in Giambi doing that for them already.

David got injured, could have happened to any player in baseball.

 

Ritchie trade was retarded.

 

Navaro signing was also retarded.

 

Albert belle, do you know the numbers he out up here?

 

Durham was way too expensive and sub par defense.

Shingo.. Not a risk

 

Trading for Marte

 

Trading for Freddy Garcia..a fly ball pitcher in Coors Lite wise move there

 

Not trading Konerko when his value was the lowest..who wants a 1b hitting .217 making 8 mil?

 

Hiring Ozzie.. didn't help to much so far.

 

Letting A-Row play everyday despite his early struggles.. This is why we got Carla in 03 right?

 

You're always going to have risks taken that will either backfire or pay off.

FWIW Durham is making $7,000,000 this season I believe and now the Giants are trying to trade him after signing Vizquel. And at least Jon Adkins has turned into a MLB reliever, originally we thought we got nothing on that deal.

And how many of those players helped win a AL title?

Exactly, that's what makes it a risk. You have to take some risks otherwise you aren't going to win.

Yeah, Albert Belle was absolutely terrible when he was here...

 

97- 90 runs 30 homers 116 RBI .274 BA

98- 113 runs 49 homers 152 RBI .328 BA

 

I can't see why we ever wanted to get him. God he sucked.

Apparently the sox could have gotten odalis perez for konerko in 2003. He did not hit .217 that year anyway, it was .234.

 

Could have sworn he was talking about this last year with rowand.

And how many of those players helped win a AL title?

How many would orlando cabrera help us win? 80 in a row? Probally when he is dead too, right?

You're arguing that 58 games on a Red Sox team that was already going to the playoffs makes him a good option, that he's going to make the difference in getting us to the playoffs? He wasn't even the best SS to play for the Red Sox this season. He did a real good job getting the Expos to the playoffs too.

I would take Johnson, but not give up too much for him. Maybe we could make it a larger deal and maybe grab one of their young pitchers (perferably Zach Day) and possibly Schnieder.

How could you be against getting Nick Johnson....

 

Besides him being physically ugly,

 

He bats lefty

He has a good OBP

He has a better glove at 1B than anyone on our roster

He's hitting ability has yet to be tapped

He runs alot faster than our current 1b

 

Buy low.......KW's specialty

 

I've wanted Nick Johnson for a long time... if he's available go and get him.

 

BTW... if you enjoy posting here.... limit the personal attacks. This is debate not hillbillie's disputin over who gets to pump their sister next. Understood?
