What's the plan for him this season? Last I heard he was cut from the Mexican League and it's been quiet ever since. Did we move him, did I miss it?

I believe he will be the starting right fielder for the Henry's Pizza Rebels, an Orland Park 16" softball team.

How about long term?........ he'll likely never play for us and he has no trade value. Even as part of a package deal come the trade deadline, I just don't see it.

QUOTE(EvilJester99 @ Feb 1, 2005 -> 05:12 PM)
No he will be a starter in Charlotte

No he will have trade value. He is a switch hitter and has great power and good speed. I could see someone trading mid ranged prospects for him.

aren't the cubs looking for a OF..KW do your best RS impression and sell that sack a s*** as gold to them.

I wish the astros would look into Borchard, they need a CFer now with Beltran gone and I think Borchard would do well in Minute Maid Park, another very hitter friendly place..

RS? Ron Schueler? :huh:

 

If KW was to imitate Ron, he'd trade Aaron Rowand and Jose Contreras for Jeromy Burnitz (as soon as Burnitz would be available for a trade.)

Maybe you should learn how to read, I said Minute Maid "is another hitter park" I didnt say it was more than the Cell or say the cell isnt..

 

Change of Scenery is what Im going by here George Washington ;)

Which bad trade are you referring to Anthrax?

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Feb 1, 2005 -> 12:34 PM)
Bell for Sosa..

How about McDowell for Lyle Muton?

The Steve Sax Trade?

 

Schueler was known for not making any trades until midseason, and when he did, he usually f***ed it up.

After McDowell Left the Sox how many games did he win? He had one good year and then down the drain..

 

Steve Sax? explain that one? you wanted Darrin Fletcher here?

1 Good trade huh??  The colon deal, getting Marte, getting Olivo, Uribe, Garcia, just to name a few.

 

Okay 2

1.Colon deal for the fact we got him for nothing

2. Marte, even though he has failed in what he was brought here to do.. CLOSE

 

Olivo? (He was good in AA, did not do squat in the majors for us)

Uribe(kid has one good year and everyone wants to throw him in HOF)

Garcia, how is getting ass reemed a good deal,(I fail to see how losing Georgues george and ten grand as a good deal. )

Blecher was a good mid-season pick up. If he did what all the fans wanted he'd have given up Ruffcorn and/or Baldwin. At the time no one knew they'd be as bad as they were but he didn't give up the highly regarded prospects to get Belcher.

Originally from day one when we got him was it ever said that he was gonna be our closer or even set-up man? I don't think so.

Exactly. In fact we lucked out that he ever did as much as he has so far. I'm not going to complain just because he's not a closer.

Borchard seems like a good fella. Its a shame he couldn't get it on track.
