I don't think it will take any convincing. After seeing Oswalt go to Phlly, I think Berkman is more eager than ever to move on, both for himself...
In fact, Marte had a similar SLG% and OPS in the minors (without looking at park factors) and was rated as highly as 9th by BA before flaming out...
This serves as v3.0's visual-oriented apology to Wade. I went the verbal route. :grin:
And for what it's worth, my apologies to Mailman for calling him out too early. Wallace certainly fits the category as a top prospect. I doubt...
I know enough about Marte as an Indians fan even though I don't follow them as closely as the Astros these days. I certainly hope that Wallace...
Most people around here seem happy with it so I'll join in for now but I'm not sure that we aren't getting a little too excited too quickly....
I believe that Roy wanted what was best for both parties throughout the process. He knew it was best for him and the Astros to go this route....
Hope so but without looking at park factors (they both did spend time in the PCL), he's not close to Pence in terms of SLG and BB rate. Lots of...
One of the best posters over at TCB on Wallace: "He’s doing fine given his ARL. He won’t be a star, but I believe he will be an above average...
Overbay is not a good hitting 1B. Apparently, the Jays have 2 other 1B prospects that they are higher on which is why they willingly dumped...
I don't think you've seen everyone else's scouting reports. Here are just a few I things I found on TCB that aren't glowing evaluations after...
Why are you so high on Wallace?
Wallace is about to turn 24, has a low walk rate and sub .500 SLG% in the minors and is reported to be poor defensively. There may be a reason...
I wonder why Toronto gave up Wallace for Gose. Overbay isn't anything special and he's getting up their in age. I heard they were high on...
Singleton started his pro career at 17. Wallace at 21. Singleton's BB rate is very impressive and that is one of the safest indicators of...
I remember Wallace being highly touted but his minor league numbers aren't all that impressive. Poor walk rate and far from staggering slugging...

That's the biggest positive I take out of this deal so far. I really hope the Phillies win the WS now.
That's an understatement. His Morey one was awesome: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=5481198&postcount=6 This one is even better....
My stomach hurts. Saving this along with the Morey one. Trying not to spit on my monitor.
