Can someone please tell me why this is the best idea for player development ever. I mean I bet the dodgers and Reds are glad they treated Konerko like that. BA plays great defense, thats really all that matters right now, at the end of the season, you will eat your words......again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jphat007 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Apr 20, 2006 -> 02:33 PM) I doubt that, but even if they want to move him, they'll get a better offer than some generic midlevel prospect. Even if they loathe the guy, they're not that stupid. Did you see the contract they gave Cristian Guzman? They are pretty stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoRowand33 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Am I the only one who feels like his swing is slow, or behind the pitches in a way I'm no hitting coach, but I think that might be why he wiffs so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 Brian anderson beat the Hell out of me and knocked me to the floor. I got up and knocked him to the floor. He was being such a jagoff.

They are pretty stupid. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not to mention getting Owens for Escobar... ...AND actually trading for that malcontent Soriano. Bowden will give up the world for someone with "flash"?

Soxpranos Posted April 20, 2006 Share Posted April 20, 2006 QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Apr 20, 2006 -> 02:56 PM) I believe Anderson is going to get every opportunity to snap out of this funk. The team would look foolish if they gave up on Anderson now -- especially after trading Aaron Rowand. We knew before the season started there would be ups and downs (mostly downs so far). But you've gotta give young players a chance. Not everybody comes out on fire right away. Fortunately, we have a team that doesn't rely on Anderson's bat. Our first 8 are more than good enough to absorb Anderson's struggles. I think we should, atleast for now, be content with Anderson simply playing a solid cf -- which he's been doing of late. His bat will come around. Nothing foolish about trading Rowand. Thome is a bigger part of the equation than Rowand, we need a guy that's gonna play defense in CF ( Which Anderson does). Anderson will be ok in the long run... play defense and let's win another world championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broadway at AAA. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes, Broadway is vanilla.....that's why it was a joke... You're right...I don't think we have anyone flashy enough for Bowden. Now, if we only had a "5-tool" prospect with a career average of .250 in the minors, I think we'd have a trading partner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson will be ok in the long run... play defense and let's win another world championship. I agree. I'm just saying that Kenny's confidence in Anderson was a big reason he we was secure in trading Rowand. How would it look if he gave up on Brian a month into the season? I don't even think there should even be a discussion about possibly replacing Anderson until around the all-star break -- assuming he's still struggling by then.

Yeah, I don't mean to give Bowden too much credit. Guzman -- what else do you need? But sending down Church was one of the most surprising moves of this year's st. Everyone knows his promise. They couldn't fail to see that and value it higher than a AA filler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 It's April :banghead Can we revisit this topic in, oh, say end of May? Once he's had two full months of big league action under his belt? Seen some pitchers on a consistent basis? Settled in? It was bad enough that people had Pods buried after two weeks into the season, but BA is a rook with serious talent. It wasn't some oversight by KW and Oz that he landed a starting job on the roster. Let's give the benefit of the doubt to the two men who won a world series championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
