bjchinn15 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Player that might shock people( my guess) ,Carlos Beltran? Mets were playing better without him and hes got a pretty high salary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yeah, I heard Cowley say that. Â Still wonder why KW would have hesitated on Jackson though unless there was another pitcher to get - or unless he thought he needed Hudson for the other deal. Â The Myers/Berkman thing just kind of seems to fit nicely - doesn't mean it wasn't BS though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 And I'm also thankful someone else reported the story on here about how Ozzie wants a roster full of guys that can't hit home runs, and in his ideal lineup, Pierre would bat 4th.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 lol@Ozzie the GM. He'd piece together an offense that would make this year's Mariners look like the '99 Indians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balfanman Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I see the moron who is Phil Rogers is at it again. Basically says that letting go of Hudson is akin to losing Jared Weaver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Has KW said how he's planning to pay for that top-heavy rotation and not bankrupt the rest of the roster at C, 1B, DH, etc.? Â Didn't we already go with this kind of a rotation only in 2006, only to realize in the end it was too expensive to maintain...with Contreras, Garland and Javy making too much money at the back end?

Basically says that letting go of Hudson is akin to losing Jared Weaver. Â Hyperbole abounds on days like this. Â I remember the time we traded for Damaso Marte, the Pirates' GM at the time compared him to a "young Greg Maddux" and most of the White Sox fanbase was furious, thinking they could have waited and gotten Marte on a roster claim when he was DFA'ed, as the Pirates had two other young lefties at the time, I think one was Beimel.
