Jose Lobaton made his debut

0-4 with a K. seriously why did we pick this guy up, it’s not like we needed the catching depth.

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 5:38 PM EDT reply actions  

because both the catchers on 25 man roster suck

i wish they would call up Jaso or Riggans (idk if hes still hurt) and get rid of Hernandez

Yes!

I'm not sure there is another team in baseball with 5 catchers on their 40 man

and I’m about positive there isn’t a team in baseball with 5 shitty catchers on their 40 man.

wow Jennings has some serious black stallion promise in him

he reminds a lot of Upton, playing shallow and making tough catches in the gap look easy.

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 5:58 PM EDT reply actions  

He really is a BJ+CC hybrid IMO

what lineup do you think well see next year

Yes!

by raysfan81 on Aug 2, 2009 6:05 PM EDT reply actions  

depends on how Jennings does over the next month but my guess is we start off with

Joyce/Upton/Gabe’s in the outfield for a couple months and than Joyce/Jennings/Upton
Longoria/Brignac/Zobrist/Hughes (unless we can’t dump Pena)
who knows at catcher and DH with the money being saved in traded C.C, Barty, Pena, and Kazmir we should be able to land something decent either through FA or a trade for these two spots.

rotation should be something like this
Garza, Shields, Niemann, Davis, Price

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 6:23 PM EDT up reply actions  

i was thinkin

joyce/upton/zo in the outfield

longo/bartlett/briggy/pena/ catcher better than Navarro

Sheilds/Garza/Price/Neimann or (Helickson)/Davis

Yes!

not sure if we would be able to afford it

but with the prospects we get back from selling off Kaz, C.C, etc… If we can go after Adrian Gonzalez if he becomes available that would be amazing. Hughes could DH

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 6:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

i would like to get rid of Burrell

Aybar could be DH for a fraction of the price or like you said hughes or i wish we could get Jeff Clement

Yes!

a Hughes/Burrell platoon wouldn't be the worst thing

but than you are looking at having 1 guy who can’t play in the field or a back-up first baseman on your bench.

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 6:34 PM EDT up reply actions  

dreaming but

RF Upton
2B Zobrist
3B Longoria
1B A. Gonzalez
LF Joyce
DH Hughes
C Salty or Teagarden
SS Brignac
CF Jennings

would be nice

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 6:33 PM EDT up reply actions  

i would love that

Yes!

he should be back in a couple weeks

my guess is he may hang out in Durham until September though. I’m not sure they will send down Dillon for him, although I think they should.

by Dbullsfan on Aug 2, 2009 6:42 PM EDT up reply actions  

Hughes isn't DH material.

He struck out ~30% of his time in AA and AAA as a 24/25-year-old. He hits for some power, but his BABIP is also over .400. There’s really no way he replicates that production in the majors and I’m guessing he has a hole in his swing if he’s whiffing that much in levels he’s old for.

by R.J. Anderson on Aug 2, 2009 10:43 PM EDT up reply actions  

Average age for AAA prospects is about 23 - 24

Average age for the league is much older, because there are a ton of 30 year old AAAA-type journeymen.
