Dammit man, you forgot about Phil Plantier and Craig Shipley, not to mention Pedro A. Martinez..... Drayton holds the key to this whole...
To answer the questions about catcher, there are three primary catchers available this off-season in free agency. Ivan Rodriguez is probably a...
I think that was a typo. Loretta's range is very limited at shortstop. I also don't know that he has the arm to play third. Personally, I am...
Bobrek, Those are inexact numbers, but let me throw out another one: Mark Loretta has the worst zone rating of any shortstop getting...
At this point, anything the Giants give us is good. An A ball prospect with a mediocre chance of making the show would work.
The Cat, Incidentally, I agree with you and my defense of Moberg can clearly be seen at Astrosdaily. My point is the one you just made. This...
There's more than one way to get rid of a guy. You can always trade a guy instead of just dumping him.
The problem with this deal is that it looks like one of those deals that only works out in tandem with other deals. We fully expect Lamb, Loretta,...
Purpura was true to his word. He wanted people that could "help us" in 2007 and beyond. I suppose under that limited criteria it worked out. I'm...

Uh yeah, I "heard" the Rockets were discussing this trade:...
It looks like one of those "the salaries match so they are considering it" kind of moves. I also looked at Memphis and wondered what they were...
More to the point, the vast majority of high school and college refs have high paying jobs during the day. So, in order to get these guys they...
Okay, I have to admit that I don't watch a ton of college or NBA basketball outside of the Houston Rockets and the TCU Horned Frogs. However, even...
We're also forgetting about Brooks in this equation. All three of these players were acquired under Adelman's watch. Morey pulls the trigger, but...
A lot of stuff has been said. 1) I loved the article. I may not agree with every single point, but it was very well written and well...
The need for someone like Rafer is similar to the need for a personality change in coaches. These things usually go in extremes. Is it any wonder...
I don't see them giving us Gooden unless we REALLY sweeten the pot, but at this point you are simply looking to unload unwanted players for...
