Jordan4life_2007 Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I went cheap in fantasy with my closers. And I'm paying dearly for it. Mike Gonzalez, Frank Francisco and Chris Perez all hate J4L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderBolt Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I think a lot of us (myself included) underestimated the Tigers offense. Mostly, because i didn't expect Austin Jackson to hit this well out of the gate. I think they'll fall off when Willis and Bonderman realize they can't pitch, but i can't write them off.

Man if Podsednik managed a .400+ OBP he'd be picked off about 20 times with another 30+ CS to go along with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as I'm sure you know, I've been a Pods backer for sometime. But his baserunning last year was deplorable. Combine that with the CS and defense and whatever good he did with the bat was minimized.

But his baserunning last year was deplorable. Combine that with the CS and defense, whatever good he did with the bat was minimized. I'm not arguing that. I feel the only reason he was not signed was because of the CS issues. The guy would have been a nice, cheap DH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again...not at the time we made the deal for Pierre. Only in hindsight, after he signed with the Royals, was it clear that he'd been forced to drop his price. It's also possible we could have wound up bidding for him against the Royals for some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Twins fans boo the first 2 pitches, thinking they're strikes. That is pathetic. Marco Scutaro with the first hit of Target Field's history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
