July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 08:40 AM) Manny cannot stay healthy When he plays the field. At DH its a different story.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 11:34 AM) That's a battle that the Rays have an advantage in. We just have to hope that our assets fit their needs a little better. Well, they did just trade for Chad Qualls so their list of available prospects has shortened
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 12:40 PM) What's Dunn's UZR at DH? i actually went to fangraphs to look this up and then I read the post again. I’m an idiot.

And i think i stand correct to my earlier point about the Rays having the true advantage. When it comes to money, which does appear to be a huge deal for the Dodgers, we do have the advantage.

July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 11:40 AM) Since when do we have money? Since yesterday, lol. Jeff Passan wrote an article lumping the White Sox together with the other mighty empires of baseball as one of the BIG 7, kind of like the accounting firms I guess.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 11:41 AM) Please get Dunn!! I don't want Manny. Please get Manny. Dunn will cost us Viciedo. With the Dodgers, this is simply a deal of how much money we're willing to take on.
July 31, 201015 yr I've got to take off. When i come back you people better be pushing 75+ pages about an awesome bat we got.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 12:42 PM) He'll be a lot healthier not having to play outfeild every day. His body has been supported and beaten up by testosterone boosts for probably a decade +. His muscle tissue/bones have to be strained like crazy.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Knackattack @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 04:43 PM) ZiPS projects a .924 OPS the rest of the way for Manny. Yummy like the ice cream!
July 31, 201015 yr I dont want Manny, and his power has dropped low, but he still is a great hitter, no doubt about it.

July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (scenario @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 12:43 PM) Please get Manny. Dunn will cost us Beckham. Fixed. Anyway, you also have to hire Manny's suppliers, and I think those are still at the gym in Pasadena.
July 31, 201015 yr He'll be a lot healthier not having to play outfeild every day. Buster_ESPN And I think we can safely say this: Kenny Williams has officially earned the title as The Damned-The-Torpedoes-Full-Speed-Ahead GM.#trades 8 minutes ago Buster_ESPN Just wondering: Why would the Dodgers not want to move Manny Ramirez, to shed dollars and perhaps create room for other stuff?#trades 11 minutes ago Kenny Kenny Kenny
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (tonyho7476 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 11:43 AM) No f'ing Manny Ramirez. He is a cancer. We're not marrying the guy. He's a freaking rental. A HOF RBI machine. Put him in the middle of our lineup and watch what happens to our playoff/world-series odds in Vegas.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Frank_Thomas35 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 12:47 PM) He'll be a lot healthier not having to play outfeild every day. Not necessarily. Jason Giambi's body broke down completely after he came off the juice and it didn't matter where they put him.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 11:40 AM) Since when do we have money? since JR said we did before the season and again in an interview a month or two ago, they weren't just going to spend it to spend it, waiting for the player they wanted.
July 31, 201015 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 08:44 AM) Fixed. Anyway, you also have to hire Manny's suppliers, and I think those are still at the gym in Pasadena. Has Manny had his suppliers this season? Because when he's played, he's posted a near .400 wOBA and a .925 OPS.
