Just Say No to Griffey Jr.

Awful defender + average bat = below average player.

Look, I feel bad that Michel Hernandez may reach more World Series than Griffey Jr. too, but he's not very good anymore.

Oh, and Jose Guillen had a higher wOBA than Gary Sheffield. Jose Guillen had a .300 OBP.

Why don't you just shoot my dog, RJ?

Hmm? Crush all of my dreams.

Frankly, if Floyd retires and we can good a deal on Griffey, I don’t see why not? Healthy? Ha! I laugh at the health issue!

Griffey ’09! Sorry, is my inner-child baseball fan showing?

I do honestly feel though that there are better, younger, and cheaper persons out there. But, a boy can dream?

The Rays lost the World Series to bad umpires, Mother Nature, and the Philadelphia Phillies.

we should sign the Giambino or Manny

I know Manny always brings trouble, but look what he did for the Dodgers. As DH he won’t have many Manny being Manny moments.

This morning Dan Sileo said...

The Rays should sign Griffey as a Utility player.

Some of you don’t like Sileo, and I used to be one of the ones who didn’t. I see now I was wrong. Sileo is probably the best unintentional comedian I’ve ever heard!

Yes. That's the point.

Idiot.

I’d love to hear Sileo explain how he thinks Griffey would be a good Utility player. Play some RF one day, maybe some SS another. Oh, that’d be great comedy.
