Is KW reading this?I hope so.

 

If he can't get Griffey,then Bellhorn could be the answer.

 

I am hoping we get Ibanez.

 

He doesnt K and is a line drive doubles type hitter that this team needs. Plus he is left handed. Can play the OF and 1st.

Twinks claim Soriano off of waivers

 

I am sure Texas will pull him back and all. Hopefully they dont get him

Texas would be stupid not to they could get alot for him this offseason

Ibanez would.........be..........AWESOME!! :D

Bellhorn sucks. Brutal on defense, and he hasn't proven he can be the same player once steroid testing took place.

I wish they'd just call up Ross Gload. Him being at Charlotte is pointless.

Bellhorn or Ibanez,i'll take either one at this point.As long as they can hit.

Got to get Flaherty in this AB. This should be the last batter Contreras faces.

lol the Twins offered JC Romero, Kyle Lohse, and Joe Mays for Soriano. Texas would be stupid for making that trade.

His HR numbers per AB have been about the same as last year, and same thing with his doubles.

 

He's better than most of our bench players, too.

 

And he's not brutal on defense. Slightly below average, but not brutal.

3 fastballs should do the trick

I like Gload,but just because he can hit in Charlotte doesn't mean he could hit in the Majors,but don't get me wrong,it would be good to see him again.

I hope they do! We suck vs. Lohse and Mays

GREAT JOB TODAY JOSE!!!

Contreas owns the yankees :cheers

He hit .320 last year up here, with a 115 OPS+. He can hit major league pitching.

Good job by Contreras overcoming 10 hits today. Lets put this game in the hands of our bullpen.

Nice going,Jose.

 

Jenks,and Cotts should finish them off!

He has 7 homers this year in 283 AB. Last year, he has 17 homers in 523 AB. That's a significant decrease in homers/AB. And yes, from all the games I've seen him play with Cubs and Red Sox, he was a bad fielder.

Only giving up 2 runs, good job Jose!!

I don't know why they didn't call him up in this skid.We could have used him.

Where did you see this trade? Sounds more like a video game trade for me. Texas won't want Mays, who has a pretty big contract. I've heard Rangers will only do the trade if they can get Liriano.
