    He could be valuable as a final piece to a contending team lacking a solid 3B or a prospect they expect to move right in. However, I don't notice any NL teams fitting that description, and I don't want to think about trading with AL rivals. Bad luck for the moment, maybe things change in the off-season.

    My one lasting memory of him in spring training was a bullet to erase a would-be base stealer. I can't speak to other aspects of his game, of course, nor his consistency. From the TD Prospect Handbook last year (which you really should have bought ):

    You outbid all 29 other GMs for the guy's services. No one else wanted him at that particular price. Now you want one of them to take him off your hands, without any additional concessions from you? You paid market rate for a player, for which you sacrificed no players in return. Now you want a fellow GM to give you players, for that same contract? You trade a player in his first year. Then you ask future free agents to commit to you without a no-trade clause, and expect them to listen?For all these reasons, I agree, trades of this sort can be expected to be rare.

    My cat clickerycup832 finds these different points of view troubling.

    From the play-by-play it looks like the players arrived, but the bats and gloves missed the flight. Apparently "Mauer fists one into center field" was literal this time. Hopefully they just got misdirected and will arrive in the dugout for tonight's game.

    Marriage based on a fair market price for the milk probably isn't going to last through the first economic downturn anyway.

    If he hasn't had any pitches buzzing under his chin, he will now.

    Of course not. You also have to throw in Duensing as a sweetener. / is what they meant to say...

    Dozier's best OPS month last year was August. Stats will fluctuate anytime you pick a 30 day sample, but I don't see evidence of a wearing down process there

    Plate discipline or pitch recognition? Because if it's the former it seems like it could be changed by him making basically a decision, but if it's the latter then coaching an improvement seems much harder.

    Well, it gets late early here in the eastern time zone. Good night everyone, time to slip into my pajamas and dream of iambs and penta meters.

    The obvious rejoinder:
  14. ashbury
    Yeah, I actually wanted May.

    That's the coming sequel to the Fantastic Four. The Interesting Five.
  16. ashbury
    I might send him. Pelf or May are my only two choices for the eighth.

    Q: Why is Shane Robinson batting ninth? A: Because the rules don't allow ten batters in a lineup.
  18. ashbury
    We have a horrendous #8 and #9 in our lineup. This has been your Circus Boy Bonus Update.

    BBEY 18, perhaps. But Mazda 323 => 8.

    Iambic Pussycat?
  21. ashbury
    Big Pelf's got this.
  22. ashbury
    But does he get to read about it in Iambic Pajamas?

    You don't want to know my sudden epiphany about therapist Bill Cosby.

    There seems to be a problem with the MLB PBP feed, it keeps saying Tigers 3Bman Castellanos made a fielding error.
