Nate McLouth-OF- Braves Jun. 3 - 8:06 pm et


Braves acquired outfielder Nate McLouth from the Pirates in exchange for RHP Charlie Morton, LHP Jeff Locke and outfielder Gorkys Hernandez.
The Braves had to do something to stimulate their lackluster offense, and Jordan Schafer's demotion left a gaping hole in center field. McLouth will likely hit directly in front of or behind Chipper Jones, increasing his fantasy value while addressing the Braves' woeful middle-of-the-order production. While the Bravos gave up three prospects, none of them are considered potential impact players.

Schafer? One of the keys to the Greinke deal? No way...

Also, the White Sox are already calling up Beckham


White Sox infield prospect Gordon Beckham will be called up from Triple-A Charlotte, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Wilson Betemit will be designated for assignment. The Pale Hose didn't call up their best prospect to ride the pine, so Beckham will likely receive regular at-bats at shortstop, third base and second base. Last year's first-round pick was hitting a robust .435/.417/.609 since being promoted to Triple-A last week. AL-only leaguers will want to add him as soon as possible.

Horacio Ramirez sucks, guys. The sooner you accept that fact, the sooner we can get around to the business of putting together a winning roster.

This.

IM not sure i can give Dayton and Hillman a pass any longer. Our roster isnt the best, but we are better than the crap of the past month.

They're currently comparing and contrasting the Royals offense to a dog's ass.

Such youthful exuberance and optimism early in this thread. What a bunch of ****tards... aren't we.

****ing Royals.

Mike Aviles was ordered to shut down his rehab from a strained right forearm for two weeks.

"After the second opinion, they decided the best thing he could do was rest it entirely for another two weeks because of the inflammation in the elbow," manager Trey Hillman said. The inflammation was causing discomfort to Aviles' forearm. Aviles was placed on the 15-day DL on May 23. He will be re-evaluated in two weeks.

Lefty Lenny DiNardo with another strong outing for Omaha last night. He lost the game as the bully blew it. Omaha is just like KC!

7 2/3 5H 1R and 9Ks with 0 walks.

Season stats

4-1 3.02 ERA 59 IP 46 H 10W 48K .211 Batting average against

He is the lefty we need in KC not HoRam. He has major league exp yet he is still sitting in Omaha when the rest of the staff is imploding. I wonder if they are taking it slow due to the failed Hochever starts. I would like to see Dinardo get a few starts in the bigs to see what happens it can't be much worse then Hoch or Davies.

Same shit, different day.

Same shitty team, same shitty product

same shitty management, same shitty results

same shitty ownership, same shitty players being put on the field.......only more shitty expensive

Big Club Parts I would keep:

Greinke
Meche
Butler
Soria
& probably Gordon

Everything else you could shit-can and NOT lose a gawdamn thing. Seriously, the make up of this team sucks. The only bright spot is that we have a tremendous load of talent in the minors...................oh, wait.

DeezNutz 06-07-2009 09:08 AM

Rany makes a compelling argument for trading for Francoeur.

He suggests trading Guillen, straight up, for JF, with the Royals eating one year on Jose's deal.

I'm on board.

Franceour for Guillen? Are they that desperate for a ..... what would you consider Guillen? A RH PH in the NL? He can't play a position.

There are no televisions in ATL, so they don't know that Guillen can't run.

Sure-Oz 06-07-2009 02:11 PM

I say make the trade....francouer is still young and has talent. I believe he has an arm for a RF'er too. His value is probably the lowest its going to get....and im sure they can fit guillen in LF or something...do it dayton!
