Felix Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 QUOTE(fathom @ May 16, 2006 -> 09:25 PM) Real quick...I didn't post in the other thread, but if Ozzie could get Hunter to play CF, I'd do it in a second. Rowand ~ Hunter They replaced Rowand with Anderson, and Rowand was a huge fan favorite & organizational favorite. Doesn't that speak wonders for what the organization think of Anderson? Why would they replace him mid-season? Also, Ozzie wouldn't make the trade, Kenny would Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 The Astros just totally threw at Bonds. 3 straight pitches way up inside. QUOTE(jenksd @ May 17, 2006 -> 01:34 AM) We only need one good defensive fielder per side of the field? What are you talking about? Brian Anderson gets ridiculous jumps, and he didn't make that play look difficult at all. Don't make Torii Hunter this year's Ken Griffey already. He's not this year's Griffey Jr., as I don't think the Twins would trade him to us. Hunter is still a better defender than Anderson, and he's a much better hitter.

He's a decent power source (mid-20's for HR), but past that, he's nothing special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying that in response to people trying to tell me how great Anderson is in the outfield. He's been better than any of us expected so far defensively, but it's not like we're comparing him to Rowand now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of all considering what we would have to give up and what he would cost to re-sign I wouldn't want him. Thats even if they would trade him to us. Second, he has great defense and a DECENT bat, nothing special at all. His GG defense is what we'll be paying for. I don't think it would be a good move at all.
