said I would have given Gregor Blanco the starting job in CF and never traded for Kotsay.

As a leadoff hitter, Gregor is hitting .275 with a .370 OBP and 6 stolen bases while playing solid defense.

said Yunel was a .280-.290 hitter and not the stud he showed last year

so far Yunel is hitting .283 and is showing zero power, exactly as I pointed out

said Kala was the real deal despite his high strikeout totals

Since May first Kala has been his old self. June and July he's hit over .300 with an OPS over .940.



I know I had more but I can't remember. What were some of yours for the season??

That Wainwright was better than Davies.

That the Teixera trade was terrible for us.

I really wish we had Wainy. I remember the bs reason we got for trading him too. "Braves management has fear that his height will interfere with his mechanics". WTF??

The teix trade was bad. I keep hearing how it was a gamble that didn't pay off (which is partly true) but a) we got deseperate and b) we didn't need more offense...

Oh yeah, while this is not related to baseball I also said that USF would be a national power in NCAAFB soon. Now I know that they ended poorly and one very good year doesn't make them a national power per se, but how many other people came out and said that? I just hope they aren't this years Rutgers and I don't think they will be. They are a very popular team down here and a lot of the recruits will be picking them over state and the U. Plus they play in the very weak Big East. That was an intentional joke for you Nite.

Glad you put the sarcasm alert. I probably wouldn't have caught that. I have been a big fan of USF, when they dont beat WVU ( ) Right now, they are the second best team in Florida.
