I’m still annoyed about them getting Lidge. Snelling is Ben Johnson in Phillie pinstripes.

Come on guys. For Mota……we just hit a homerun. We could have gotten an independent league catcher for him an I would have been impressed but Estrada…If healthy, after his surgey…he could be very good. Used to throw out 30% of his runners. Just last season he was affected by a bone spur that got corrected this offseason

Why is there no mention of shawn chacon?

btw if you can get dan haren f/ oakland you do so!

heilmann, millage and either pelphrey OR humber is NOT
unreasonable!

also, this catchin’ situation is NOT great castro looks like a
back-up 200ab a yr guy and estrada,while he can hit a little
is not a real good defensive c by any means (calling gm.,blocking or throwing) so???

2B and Catcher is done.

Now to bullpen.

Go get Damasco Marte from the Pirates.

Then work on an ace.

Is Estrada a rapist also? Then we could call our catching tandem, “The Rapists” :-)
