Gene Honda Civic Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 No doubt in my mind. Milledge is getting traded this off-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 07:07 PM) No doubt in my mind. Milledge is getting traded this off-season. And I think it will be to the White Sox. The question I have is if he can be our starting CF or LF next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSOX45 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 We should be able to get Milledge AND more from the Mets in exchange for Garcia. The amount that organizations are willing to pay for pitching these days are absolutly ridiculous. It's only a matter of time before the pieces fall into place.

Not to start an argument, but may I ask why you say that? His minor league stats suggest he looks to be a pretty darn good player. Not the greatest, but pretty darn good. Career minor league numbers, .308 batting, .385 OBP, .860 OPS, and his #'s in his last full minor league season, 2005 at AAA, were better in every one of those categories. His SB #'s leave some room for improvement, as does his SB %age, but that may well be something he could be taught. Strikeouts are a little high, but he also takes a good number of walks.

That was 2005 at A-, A+, and AA http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/M/l...-milledge.shtml It is good to see that while he hit at a worse clip, his OBP stayed in the same neighborhood.

KevHead0881 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Am I the only guy who noticed that the Padres got a guy named "Ring" and a guy named "Bell", or am I just the only guy who thinks its worthy of anybody's attention? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
