Brett Gardner

I remember in past years that every time Ellsbury’s name came up, Gardner’s name came up. After this past season, Ellsbury is now considered the spark plug to the Red Sox offense. I think it would be nice to get your thoughts on Brett Gardner, his career so far and what he can possibly be in the future.

Ellsbury

Gotta love those lead-off men with .330 OBPs.

Mike Piazza

I like the idea though, maybe after the 30th round

Stephen Drew Prospect Retro

After last year’s season, many people soured on this kid. However, this year he has really blossomed and has become one of the Dbacks most clutch hitters down the stretch.

DSL top prospects

Prospect Retro: Jeremy Hermida

Many predicted him to be a stud when he came up but his numbers have cratered this year. He’s still young though.

thoughts on the economy

there are more than a few posters on the board that i’d think could offer a lucid encapsulation of the current crisis, and it might be worthwhile to see what potential fixes the board could come up with.

Crystal Ball: Shin-Soo Choo.

He’s been amazing down the stretch, after having some shaky times. Where does he go from here?

+1 on the Ziegler retro

A crystal ball would work as well.

DSL Prospects would be cool

Guys who could have “breakout” potential next year.

May be time consuming so just thoughts on guys who broke out this year.

Also let us know when to pre-order the book so you can get an idea for the printer. Since the economy SUCKS don’t want a lot of waste.

I doubt that you do it but...Scott Lewis

It’s a homer pick. He’s from my hometown. He’s definitely off to a great start.

by Snake the Jake on Sep 21, 2025 9:11 PM EDT   0 recs

+1 on Scott Lewis, as well.

Seems to have a bit more going for him now but still does not light up the radar gun. Think he will outperform Sowers and Laffey?

Future Aces.

Not possible #2 or 3 pitchers, I want aces.

With a bit o’ attention as to what defines a true #1 SP. It can’t just be stuff.

Beckham Vs Flores

DO IT!! Please?

by Duece on Sep 21, 2025 9:28 PM EDT   0 recs

Hypothesize/propose offseason deals

consisting of young players/prospects that make sense for both teams given their organizational needs, e.g. TEX trades Salty to CIN for Homer Bailey etc.

I know, I know

They could trade Josh Hamilton for Edinson Volquez!

Drew Stubbs piece

He kind of had a little breakout year, especially once he left the FSL.
