Hey pot.. come on over and meet my friend.. the kettle.

:lol: :lol:

 

Let's review baseball economics. None of these decisions are made in a vacum, they always are part of a balance. Possiblities for example here:

 

Is it Alomar and Cotts or Harris and Maddux?

 

When the dominoes start to fall, the team takes shape. I enjoyed watching Robbie this season. I've been watching douple plays happen for 30+ years and I wasn't amazed at any of them. The only amazing double plays I've seen in a while have been made by 6 yeart olds in a T-ball league. If Robbie trots out there opening day, I'd be happy, if he doesn't and we have a #2 pitcher in his place, I'd be happier. It's how KW spends the money.

 

Put another way if KW has (3) $6 milion dollar chips left who do you want him betting on? I'd like to see a starter and a bull pen guy before a 2nd baseman.

My 2 cents, (for what it's worth)...

 

Although Robbie is a "shadow" of his former playing self, his defense and leadership value cannot be overlooked.

 

I hope Willie can "cut it", but from what I've seen of him so far, I'm not too sure. I hope I'm wrong (it's been known to happen ;) ), but....
