Balta1701 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 7, 2011 -> 10:53 AM) Gavin is probably one you hold onto unless you get blown away by an offer. Add Thornton to your list and as I said, you can get some nice pieces back if done right. And I'm talking about a firesale on May 7th, I officially hate myself. I'm pretty sure we were all talking about a firesale May 7 of last year too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxrd5 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 7, 2011 -> 10:21 AM) I'm pretty sure we were all talking about a firesale May 7 of last year too. And it was probably equally as warranted then as well. I definitely didn't feel like last years team was as bad as this years though, we just seem completely derailed this year. I think offensively we were statistically worse though to start the season, but the breakdowns have been in every single aspect this year.

Milkman delivers Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 QUOTE (La Marr Hoyt HOF @ May 7, 2011 -> 11:18 AM) ... and we should have done it Would you rather: 1.) Be in last place in all of baseball but already have one year of rebuilding in the books 2.) Be in last place in all of baseball and have to start rebuilding right now I'm taking #1 every single time. People will mention that last year's team came back, but they always omit that they still lost. And of course someone will bring up hindsight being 20/20 even though many, many of us have been calling for a rebuild for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that keeps up they will be forced to hold on to aging players and bad contracts. This season is bad but does the outlook look worse within 5 years? There's been a debate that Beckham's problems stem from not spending enough time in the minors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
