Possibly a healthy Reyes makes the lineup better. But not sure you can count on him being healthy. And he's not the player he was a few years ago. That said, if they'd take Adams for him, I'll warm up my truck and drive him to the airport now. Not to be overlooked, Reyes is owed around $40M this season and next I think.Rockies won't be needing Jose Reyes maybe we could swing a trade without giving up the farm. If his suspension isn't too severe. The Birds could then lead him off and move Carp to a RBI spot. When Honny comes back put him at 3rd and Carp at 1st and use Holliday and Moss in a platoon in LF with whoever is hitting getting most the ABs
Hell Eags it aint my money and I'm just trying to figure out a way to improve the offense and defense. Diaz probably won't play for a month now that he made that error. MM has a long memory when it comes to someone who is not one of his boys. Damn I'm starting to sound like some of you Matheny haters. Too many beers time to go to bed, goodnight
Welcome to the dark side. Hehe...I get what you're saying on the money. And it's not like the Birds don't have it. I think they were willing to spend it on JHey Double Play and Price both (not just one or the other), so there's obviously room in the budget...Honestly, Reyes would provide an immediate upgrade. And I'm of the belief Peralta won't be back until ASB or later. And you're EXACTLY right on Diaz. Adams could swing and miss by a foot on a lefty and he'd get run back out there every day. One of the non-MM'ers does something the same, he'd be shunned for a week or more.Hell Eags it aint my money and I'm just trying to figure out a way to improve the offense and defense.

I did see where the Birds traded some minor leaguer (Aquino I think) for cash considerations so I guess they are strapped for money.
Mo's bow tie fund? MM's product fund?I did see where the Birds traded some minor leaguer (Aquino I think) for cash considerations so I guess they are strapped for money.
Looks like MM out guessed you guys on this one. Diaz in to PH for for Adams in a tie game and delivers with his first big league HR for the lead. Not to mention Hazelbaker, who somebody said had no business being on this team out of ST tied it up with his second HR. As I type this Garcia launched a PH homer too.
Everybody gotta play somebody. You guys should be very excited with 4 HR's in a game. But they were all by guys that ain't makin a whole lot of money so I guess they aren't as good.
You got that right 3R. Scored some runs but my Lord the defense sucks 1-3 look out CubbiesEverybody gotta play somebody. You guys should be very excited with 4 HR's in a game. But they were all by guys that ain't makin a whole lot of money so I guess they aren't as good.
VB you can breathe easy now, no 0-10 start.

At least we're beating a team we should beat. Some teams have trouble doing that and they ALL count in the standings. Come the end of September these games will mean just as much any other.
I agree 3r but really worried about a ground ball pitching staff. This infield defense is just awful. 3 more errors tonight on really easy plays.

Ah what the heck the Reds beat up on the Pirates. Like I said, these wins will count just like any others come time to see who plays in October.
