If I recall correctly a lot of people agreed, in March, that this was a building year. Sure we might make the playoffs assuming we start playing a lot better but what about next year and the years aft ... |

Just to clarify something: Don't confuse Shoewizard the analyst with Shoewizard the fan. It was the analyst that made the bet that Johnson likely wouldn't be both healthy and effective. Personally, I ... |

If Levski becomes Shoewizard's daddy, as his brother in law would that make him my Daddy by marriage ? This is getting way too familial for me. |

I don't know the person who made this statement but "the manager who makes his decisions based upon the fans ends up sittting with them". I am sure JB has been well schooled in making your ... |

WithBoomers history with the D'backs I am not sure this will be the most favoorable venue. According to my recollection, in 2002 Boomer was negoiating with the D'backs. The Yankees, still hurting from ... |

Perhaps the assumption that the trade was Saunders for Tracy is wrong. In tge past JB has gotten a player with good potential thrown into the "primary" trade. This article says that the deal ... |

If we offered Gonzo arbitration and he accepted (highly unlikely) would there be any restrictions on trading him. Assuming arbitration would be less than if he goes with the FA market could the Dbacks ... |

A few thoughts on Krynzel. I have trouble believing that the Brewers really cared whether they had to tell Krynzel he was being waived. It's just business. Also, you know JB looked at this trade from ... |

Where a manager is confident in his own ability and is able to really guide his team the need for proven veterans is not that important. I think Bo Mel has a good relationship with his players but I d ... |

Bob Melvin feels most comfortable with those who are his contemporaries. He relates to them, respects them and in my opinion feels that he doesn't have to manage them. They will always play as much as ... |
