- If we are not going to get Prince Fielder, then we should trade one of our pitchers for a power hitter prospect. - juan 2012-01-07 17:14:47 (71 views)
  - No thanks. A proven stud pitcher for a prospect, i.e., someone who may or may not pan out? Nope. - starburst 2012-01-07 17:29:29 (15 views)
    - I don't know that Vogelsong qualifies for that praise but - Earl j. Slick 2012-01-09 15:56:10 (16 views)
      - You're right on Vogelsong not being in the "stud pitcher" category. I was in a hurry. - starburst 2012-01-11 16:57:39 (6 views)
      - We'll do it Sabean's way. However, if he starts to panic during the season and gets us bad deals again and puts us over the payroll cap, then I will go ballistic on him. - juan 2012-01-10 12:41:53 (10 views)

  - ACtually it was a whole lot of other guys sucking that were the problem. - Earl j. Slick 2012-01-09 15:58:08 (14 views)
    - How could I leave out Tejada! Sabean does not trust Crawford at the plate. - juan 2012-01-10 12:35:22 (12 views)
  - It was both Crawford sucking at the plate and Sabean. Sabean got Orlando Cabrera in order to boost the hitting. - juan 2012-01-07 17:18:37 (39 views)

    - You guys are way off. That's no way to evaluate their business. One has to look at assets vs liabilities. The Giants ticket revenue makes up for payroll. The rest is gravy. Not only that they make income from the park. - juan 2012-01-01 15:14:52 (174 views)

        Yup. He had a rough year. It was a salary dump for the W.Sox but they also received a prospect who has a good upside. - Calvin and Hobbs 2011-12-31 20:24:59 (28 views)
  - For the Padres they may have soured on Castro, and looked to get a player who they can easily flip in another trade - Calvin and Hobbs 2011-12-31 11:49:01 (13 views)
