    lets look at biggio compared to the rest of the 2bs in the hall... i'll establish my simplistic criteria as follows... total WARP3, and years above 10 WARP3... thats it. keeping it easy. relevant? who knows! lajoie - 173.1 - 7 collins - 181.9 - 10 hornsby - 165.9 - 8 evers - 70.1 - 0 frisch - 122.1 - 2 gehring - 133.3 - 6 maranville - 101.1 - 0 robinson - 93.3 - 4 ward - 93.0 - 0 herman - 109.7 - 4 doerr - 112.4 - 2 schoendienst - 97.2 - 3 morgan - 166.8 - 6 carew - 126.7 - 4 lazzeri - 85.4 - 1 fox - 94.6 - 1 mcphee - 109.6 - 0 mazeroski - 103.7 - 0 molitor - 134.1 - 0 sandberg - 112.7 - 4 biggio - 125.2 - 3 biggio is 7th in total wins above replacement player, and tied for 9th in "great" season, with WARP3 of 10 or greater, out of 20 second base hall of famers. well, 18 if we omit mazeroski and evers from the discussion.... biggio is a hall of famer, imo. ditto thomas.

    have either seo or phillips contributed meaninfully since their respective trades? was there terribly more we should have expected from trading away either?

    i think that's a bit too high a price to pay, ira... and has griffey really said anything lately about not wanting to play a) for a winner in new york? or are we just reading too much into his actions and motivations from the last time around, way the hell back in 1999?
  12. metsmarathon
    i could probably start a new thread with this, but instead of a guy like bradley, why shouldn't the mets be interested in acquiring a ken griffey jr.? i mean, i realize that our outfield is already pretty darned old, but he would push alou to the bench, immediately improve our offense and do fairly good things for our defense, and allow gomez to maybe go back down to AAA to continue seasoning. it also solves a portion of our outfield puzzle for next year, and perhaps the year after. we also have enough outfielders down on the farm that, even after sending, say, milledge, to cincy (and im not claiming that is my preferred package - only that i haven't really thought it through yet), we would have ample insurance for if/when jr got hisself hurt again. he's playing very well, and isn't all too expensive for the next 2-3 years, with only $6.5M for next year and his '09 option.

    this makes more sense to me...
  14. metsmarathon
    he's a yankee?
  15. metsmarathon
    you have a very odd and disturbing interest in m.e.t.b.o.t, don't you?
  16. metsmarathon
    well, i think its clearly number 3. how could the mets troubles possibly be un-related to armando benitez?
  17. metsmarathon
    good points. still, the plus a pitcher is a bit steep, i think.
  18. metsmarathon
    well, im not sure what their needs are over in oakland. i'd be mostly interested in putting in a waiver claim on him, and if that doesn't work out, then oh well. i'm not sure that castro is what oakland needs, seeing as they have kendall and piazza there already. perhaps an outfielder, but i don't think i'd send a good one. heh, maybe ledee... castro + unnamed pitcher sounds high for me, unless said pitcher was scott scheoneweiss on the whole, i don't know if we have a good match on what to send back, only that i'd entertain discussion on the matter.
  19. metsmarathon
    i'd make a play for him.
  20. metsmarathon
    how many have they lost? how does that compare with other teams?

Just reaching thinking that a dip in the standings will end the "Hey at least we are still in first" mentality and cause for Omar to pull the trigger on some deals. even better than panic-driven play... panic-driven transactions!
  22. metsmarathon
    what any good team needs is to hit the panic button and start pressing. that always works.

  25. metsmarathon
    yes, especially in the case of barry bonds.
