Wow. Even though I doubt it'll happen, that'll be a story for the world. I can see it now on sportscenter.." Ryan Sweeney, rips a double into right field scoring two. Can you believe this kid is only 20 years old...?! The Miguel Cabrera of the AL." (he'll be 20 when 05' starts) Unbelieveable..

I'd rather keep a younger, Olivo whose batting is only going to get better and a fantastic arm, than an injury prone Kendall whose bat is really good but his arm is really weak. Plus Olivo and Frank don't have overloaded contracts like the other two.

Very nice playa!

I'm wearing my green bandana in school right now. Happy St. Patrick's Day to all.

Oh I get it. My apologies. But that still wasn't a good comparison if he never had a good walk/strikeout ratio.

Hopefully that will boost his confidence more and more. Colon can be intimidating to a young hitter. But Sweeney was very calm at the plate. I think that can be very good for this organization if he becomes a star.

Yea, but he'll never have the eye of the plate like Mantle, and I don't think Borchard can hit homers consistantly from both sides of the plate like Mantle. That's a ridiculous comparison.

True. I'm saying at the rate he's hitting now, he will be good in the majors. Not too many hyped prospects can hit major league pitching like he did.

That's a joke right... :headshake

Agreed.

Haha, I'd expect someone like me saying that.

He is going to be a real stud for us. I think he can be the Miguel Cabrera for us as far as reaching the majors at a very young age. He has proved that he can handle major league pitching and I'm sure he can perform at an exceeded level as well.

Sure seems that way.

Sweeney is going to be a great major league hitter. Sweeney-Anderson-Reed are a great 1-2-3 lefty combo for many years to come. I can't wait for these guys to shine in the future.

Yea, I don't see this as much. Maggs will probably go to them if they are willing to pay alot for him.

This was already posted dude.

Excately

Very nicely said wite.

Feel sorry for Valenzuela. But I knew he probably wouldn't make it even though he should had last year.

Thanx for the info Rex. Knowing how cheap this organization is.. I'm sure we'll just keep him instead of paying that 25k.

Nah. I'd still take Jessica over her.

Damn his grandmother was 98. Very strong life for that age. I send my best wishes Brando..

I was also thinking that in my mind, but I knew it couldn't be.

Porzio was just an inning eater for us. I'm glad he's out of our team, and the best of luck to him. But he is old, and is just trying to make a spot on the team.
