You guys win. You can keep your little marked-out piece of internet territory. Spend your days communicating via keyboard with people too ugly for the real world and too nerdy for anyone to care, anyway. Your piece of land is here. Do the rest of civilization a favor and stay within its limits. You bore me. Have fun with your nightly sobs and screams into your pillow over your inability to attract a good mate, Radiohead. ~The Hooligan

What you fail to understand in your joyless myopia is that baseball is the key to life-- the Rosetta Stone, if you will. If you just understood baseball better all your other questions your, your... the, uh... the aliens, the conspiracies they would all, in their way be answered by the baseball gods.

Kevin Frandsen: The best SS on the Giants roster
Hoping for BowkerMania to hit AT&T Park in 2010
dunno if you missed it or not gatling
but several of us are ready to see Brignac on the poll. I also would have voted for Myers or Tate here, but went with Colome since I think he has a shot of getting on, and I don’t want to see him fall farther.
I did forget,
which is kind of dumb seeing as Brignac ranks in the 50’s on my own list. I’ll get him on as a tester next poll.
RIP Nick Adenhart
Project Prospect top 100 is out
As usual with the eclectic tastes. They rank my guy Neal 37 though.
anyone else see the sickels chat on espn?
he prefers matusz and porcello over buchholz. very interesting.
Props to anyone who figures out which question I asked that wasn’t from “DaveH”…
http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/30988/mlb-with-jim-callis
John Sickels, proprietor of this fine establishment
Jim Callis, writer for Baseball America and the guy who chatted
has anyone ever seen them in the same room at the same time?
same situation as Alex Colome and Arodys Vizcaino. [I actually asked this question too. not answered by Mr Callis, just like it wasn’t answered by Mr Sickels]
Callis on Castro
Thinks Lee may push him to 2b, home run peak around 15-18, 20 ceiling. I am starting to get a Polanco vibe from Castro.
On kalish he leans solid regular, but says scouts are divided between solid regular and tweener. Scout speak.
can I ask why?
I’m not sure I see the Polanco/Castro comparison. Btw, he said ceiling of 20ish. Small but key difference.
But I’m curious why, off of those power comments by Callis, that you think Polanco. Polanco has only hit more than 14 HR’s twice.
Because
He said ceiling 20ish, more likely to hit 15-18. I took that as a more reasonable peak type stretch. 20 absolute top. He will likely get into the mid-teens more often than Polanco I suppose. But I am comparing him to Polanco’s peak. Polanco was/is pretty damn good. A couple of 5 war 2b seasons. Several 3. Project Prospect questioned his power potential somewhat, so I am not willing to say he hits 18 most seasons.
Castro hit 4 homers
in about 600 plate appearances this year, including AFL. He walked 32 times. Sure, he was 19. Ruben Tejada is only a few months older and he hit 6. I know scouts say Ruben doesn’t have the same power potential. But I am not sure I am ready to say Castro will regularly be mid to high teens. Polanco went .300/.350/.450 for about 3 seasons starting when he was 27. I can see castro doing that, maybe younger and a longer stretch. Maybe he’ll hit a few more. Maybe he never even matches Polanco.
fair enough
I was simply wondering why you associated those comments as Polanco-ish.
