Serious...Burnett is Toronto's second best pitcher? Seriously? Is that based on the fact that he is fifth amongst their starters in ERA, WHIP, On-base percentage against, K/BB, and BB/9 innings? <BR/><BR/>As for the big three, I don't think toronto would trade anybody for McHale, Bird, and Parish.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00742159228200876688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780276584364604867.post-68610527451684154942008-06-17T17:05:00.000-04:002008-06-17T17:05:00.000-04:00The Yanks wont get Burnett because Riccardi would ...The Yanks wont get Burnett because Riccardi would get crucified for trading away his second best pitcher to a division rival for anything less than the big three.<BR/><BR/>I'm pretty sure that Maddux has said he would never play in New York, plus he is a six inning pitcher at best in the NL West. I don't think that would translate well to the AL East.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13881643554796423918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780276584364604867.post-47718911678786602932008-06-17T11:03:00.000-04:002008-06-17T11:03:00.000-04:00If Toronto continues to struggle, the Yankees can ...If Toronto continues to struggle, the Yankees can probably shake Burnett loose from them. Blanton and harden are available, but will be expensive.<BR/><BR/>Here's one no one has mentioned; Greg Maddux. there was a lot of talk about him returning to Atlanta, but now Smoltz and Glavine are out, and things don't look good for the Braves.<BR/><BR/>And speaking of the NL West, you can have Zito for a bag of balls and a Coney Island hot dog.Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00742159228200876688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6780276584364604867.post-71770621654384054702008-06-17T08:32:00.000-04:002008-06-17T08:32:00.000-04:00Hank Steinbrenner is an imbecile. Just go to that...Hank Steinbrenner is an imbecile. Just go to that link. The DH rule is only 30 years old. Pitchers have been running the bases for 100 plus years. Half the time when players run the bases they're only going half speed anyway. I don't understand how a professional athlete gets hurt running 90 feet at a time. Wang's injury is flukey and unfortunate. I honestly feel bad for the guy, but c'mon Hank! I guess he doesn't realize that some things just happen, and you can't blame someone else for all of your misfortune.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05548707517391398364noreply@blogger.com
