i realize its spring training, but seeing what danks, flowers, hudson,viciedo etc, are capable of doing, how promising they look, doesnt that make you think a little twice about trading them (and more) away for agone?

Nope. I already know how talented they are and Huddy is the last piece I want to give up but if we add Adrian we really do have a legit, legit shot at making a World Series run.

If we get Adrian, we own the trophy for the next five seasons.

If we can sign AGON to an extension then anybody is fair game not named Beckham. But for a year and two months of AGON? Ask Braves fans how they feel about losing Neftali Feliz and Elvis Andrus for a year of Tex.

I don't even understand why people bring a bat up to the plate to face Marmol. You're either going to k or walk, no point in swinging.

Problem is locking him up for the next 5 seasons.

Still... AGon really is the missing piece to make this a World Series club. We're one guy away and he's it.

That is messed up about Guzman maybe never pitching again.

really? i had heard that he had a shoulder issue and then len and bob said something is torn, but he might not pitch anymore ever?

I don't think kenny makes the trade unless this can be done.

SUpposedly he has already turned down 5/90 from the Padres. It sounds like has his eye on a Texeiria contract.

You really think we go from a projected .500 team to World Series contender just by adding AGON? I know he's good. Don't know if he's THAT good. We still need a bunch of guys to have bounce-back years. Division would definitely be a lock.

Well I think we're a bit better than a .500 team right now. But yes, upgrading from Kotsay/Jones/Vizquel to Adrian adds a lot of wins to your team. And even with out him, IF we get into the playoffs I think we'll have a good shot to make a run cause of our rotation, you add Gonzalez, and yes I think we have a great shot to win it all.

Hudson is getting hit around a little bit.

Uh oh. Perfect bunt by Lillibridge. I think he just made the team.

 

 

Not with one bunt single he didn't

Cubs are getting a couple weak little hits in the infield. And Scales throwing his elbow over the plate on that HBP. Hudson still looking good.

 

EDIT: Make that 3 little hits through the infield.

It was a joke because Ozzie loves the players who can bunt and "grind out" hits.

Well ultimately the main objective is to get to the postseason. Fair game after that. I still wouldn't gut the farm for a rental. That's just me.

 

Not a very good looking throw by JorDanks there.

Torres looked nice in his 1 inning. Came back from 3-0 to strike out him out. 0 H, 0 BB, 2 K's in the inning.

I don't know if Andruw is taking it easy, or he is semi-hurt. But he sure seems to be taking his sweet time around the bases.

Watching Soriano play defense never gets old

If we did not have a garden gnome at SS, he would have caught that line drive off of Torres.

Can we just go ahead and cut Botts now.

Update?
