Oh, because I've been so wrong many times before. Please list all times I've been wrong.

 

Clayton Richard... already admitted that one.

 

Original Nick Swisher trade... oh wait, nailed that one.

 

Ryan Sweeney... hasn't really panned out either way, but anyone can make a legit argument between him, Anderson, Swisher, and Young and who'd be the better option.

 

Josh Fields... jury's still out.

 

Edwin Jackson and Andy Sonnastine... dead on again.

 

Please, add to the list of all my wacky and crazy predictions.

You're going to say you don't make outlandish statements fairly regularly?

Who would we have sent to Tampa Bay that is comparable, WITHOUT adding salary to Tampa?

Not sure, depends on who Tampa likes. We'd have to add a couple more players to deal because Joyce is more MLB ready than any OF prospect we have, but I'd figure someone like Shelby would be involved.

Some might call them outlandish, but I'm usually right. I don't want to act conceded, but I get a lot of grief on here for being some crazy goofball that doesn't know anything (I got the award to prove it), but the reality is, I know baseball and I'm not afraid to make statements on players based on what I see from them, and not what stats show me.

 

Also, if I saw this Clayton Richard last year, I would have never been wrong about him ;)

Felix Hernandez definitely needs to be added to this discussion. Jered Weaver too maybe, if he has another good start or two soon...

Oh, because I've been so wrong many times before.

If you're gonna call me out, please provide examples of when I've been wrong so many times.

Gio Gonzalez? How has he been?

 

How has DLS been since the surgery?

 

oh and

Ryan Sweeney... hasn't really panned out either way, but anyone can make a legit argument between him, Anderson, Swisher, and Young and who'd be the better option.

 

.246/.313/.319/.632 still 2 homers, still 8 doubles, still 4 of 6 in stolen bases...and UPDATED again

 

BTW, his career line of .266/.328/.353/.681 smells like Sean Burroughs...even though Sean Burroughs could get on base :P

I probably would, if the "View New Posts" function actually worked.
