Re: Tigers trade for Renteria
Guys chill out, jeez. It was a joke. And he fixed the title now so it's cool.
But for a moment I really did think Buick traded Tiger Woods for Elmer Renteria, pitch-man extraordinaire.

[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] phb, Learning grammar would solve your problem. Can't wait for "John Smoltz trade" round 2!! [/ QUOTE ] Oh, right, please trade John Smoltz. [/ QUOTE ] Wait, you know I was referring to John Smoltz the Tiger for Doyle Alexander the Brave right? [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, I was taking it a step farther and just hoping that the Braves would actually trade John Smoltz and get similar results [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[ QUOTE ] so I guess the move to 1B for Guillen is official now. [/ QUOTE ] That's the plan? To move a guy capable of play short (albeit poorly) to first? Wouldn't it make more sense to have Inge murdered and move Guillen to third? [/ QUOTE ] Inge is an above average defensive 3B, right? Obviously, they needed to replace the horribly bad Casey/Thames platoon. Guillen was great offensively as a SS, but wouldn't he project to a below average 1B offensively?

Re: Tiger trade for Renteria

Re: Tiger trade for Renteria
I think the braves should flip hernandez - I think he's slightly overrated for things like tools and running really fast and I believe Schafer is the better long term option at CF anyways. Looove that this opens up a spot for lillibridge though - at least my scoresheet baseball team does!

Schafer is definitely the CF of the future, but there's no need to move Hernandez yet. He's going to start the year in A+, so he's at least two years from a decision. Your scoresheet is going to be very unhappy unless the Braves play Lillibridge (or Johnson) in CF. Yunel Escobar now slots in as the starting SS.

Re: Tiger trade for Renteria
I'm pretty disappointed as a Braves fan. Can we atleast spend the difference on SP.
Probable starters for next year. 1b-Tex 2b-Johnson SS-Escobar 3b-Jones RF-Diaz CF-Francouer LF-? SP-Hudson SP-Smoltz SP-? SP-? SP-? RP-Gonzalez? RP-Moylan RP-Mahay RP-Acosta Closer-Soriano Big needs 3-5 starter? Will Hampton be back and can he pitch. James, Reyes fill any voids? I'd prefer more proven guys personally. I'd like a speedy guy in LF/RF (whichever Diaz doesn't play). I don't think Willie can handle a full season as proved by his Aug/Sep performance.
