Sorry about that.  I jumped through hoops and ladders in order to make these
numbers readable, and surely enough, they wound up being unreadable!  Sheesh.

Also, how much do you think it would cost to buy the O's?  How many regulars are
there in here?  If each regular put twenty bucks in, how close would we be? 
I'll even put in an extra five becasue the commissioner's office requires one
person to be the primary buyer so that there can be one person to make absolute
decisions should there be hassles among the buyers.

I, of course, volunteer to be that man in case Joe torpedoes Mac's plan to have
a backup catcher.  Zepp can be in charge of making up statistics to make our
guys look better than they are, Scott can be in charge of MD-OH trading, since
every trade we have ever made has been with Ohio, starting with the Reds (F.
Robinson) and the Cubs ever since.  I will be in charge of every other trade and
free agency acquisition, especially those involving Glenn Davis.  (I hear tell
he's in great shape and, technically, he is our property).  Also, pay no
attention to the rumor that the Cubbies are in some sort of state called IL. 
Don't believe everything you hear.

>> and Cubs about to be sold <<
 
The Cub sale went thru and became "official" about a month ago to some
pencil-necked geek whose family owns TD Ameritrade.
 
The guy is as clueless as the jerks before him.....
 
His "plan" to bring a WS to the Cubs is to upgrade the bathroom facilities &
widen the concourses at Wrigley to "so fans can enjoy the Wrigley Experience
more comfortably", build a triangle building housing a Cub Hall of Fame (looks
like it would be an empty building to me!) and to build a bigger clubhouse with
a new weight room for Cub players .... which, of course, are all the reasons why
the Cubs haven't won a WS in over 100 years!
 
It never dawned on the guy that maybe his best bet to get to the WS would be to
possibly IMPROVE the actual product on the field and why every other fan of
every other team, except for Cub fans,  go to ballgames.  But, NAH.... That's
too easy a solution which is why he never thought of it and why it'll be another
100 years before the Cubs approach playing in a WS.

Thing I have to wonder is who has enough money to buy a majority share of the
organization that is even interested in buying a baseball team. With the
Dodgers, Padres and Cubs about to be sold, I'm not so sure there will be too
many takers that would be willing to buy the team if they stay in the cellar.

All signs from an econmoic standpoint signal yes he will sell his 51%, remember
there are 49% of minority owners in the team on top of Angelos. I would love for
David Modell to put a little bit of a bid in....

>> check out Scott's beloved Cubs at #4, ahead of the Red Sox! Who woulda thunk
it? <<
 
This is what happens when you have a GM who doesn't know his ass from a hole in
the wall regarding baseball and opens up the checkbook by out-bidding HIMSELF
for players that come off of career years yet don't fit together as a team
and who decide to sit back, collect the salaries, treat "The Wrigley
Experience" like a trip to Disney World, allow a country club atmosphere in the
clubhouse without any hint that these prima donnas were expected to produce in
exchange for all those cushy contracts.
 
Need I say more???
 
If guys didn't go to Wrigley just for the chicks and the beer garden/singles bar
ambiance and the rubes from Iowa, Wisconsin & Indiana didn't go there just to
"absorb the Wrigley Experience".... which is all a buncha BS.... the place would
be empty.
 
Don't get me started on the freaking Cubs!

I would be a little surprised if Angelos sells the team by 2011. Even more so if

The thing I don't likr about uggla. His offensive numbers are so good
because he is a 2b. Move him to 1b or 3b and he is kind of average.

But who knows maybe a move and his bat will get a little bit better as 3b
isn't as demanding. I wonder what it takes to get him

I have no use for Garland, but I very much want Lackey, as I want a #1 guy.
Even way back when (this morning) wahen I was in love with Uggla, I would
still have taken Lackey since he's not only a pitcher, but a very good one
when he's healthy, which isn't often but often enough to matter.
Injury-wise, he's Jim Palmer, not Carl Pavano.

>> Going to take more than Ray and Wiggy <<
 
The Marlins consistently and successfully go after top prospects. When they
develop and approach big-money time, they trade them for more top prospects.
 
They burned the Cubs in the Juan Pierre trade by getting Nolasco, Pinto and
Mitre in return for a speedy guy that had no defense and absolutely no arm. 3rd
base coaches were needing to go thru Tommy John surgery after waving runners
around 3rd whenever the ball was hit to Pierre. The Cubs were just as desperate
for a leadoff man who plays CF as the O's seem to be about getting a 3rd
baseman.... which is scarey.
 
You can't stress defense enough up the middle and at 3rd & 1st base. Guys like
Uggla end up giving up as many runs as they generate over the course of a long
season.
 
It'll be interesting to see where this goes. I can see the O's spending to try
to get Lackey & Garland, but I can't see the O's giving up a couple of crown
jewels and expand the payroll to get Uggla.

He has played third in his career - approaching 1000 games at 2nd, 288? at
3rd.

He kicked Hanley Ramirez's ass because Ramirez wasn't trying to win....

Going to take more than Ray and Wiggy....

Yeah, I was going to ask about his defense, but that was before I heard about
his limited 3B experience.  I hadn't really thought about his 2B defense, which,
if lousy, can only get worse at third.

As Scott correctly points out, we desperately need a strong defense considering
such a young and inexperienced pitching staff.  That doesn't keep me from
wanting Uggla, but it could alter what I am willing to pay.

Most sluggers strike out a lot.  It sort of comes with the territory.  And a
case can be made that at 29. he might be hitting his stride, despite last year. 
(Although I would indeed like to know why what happened last year (a) happened
at all, and (b) happened  last year)!

Also, BA in this guy is not as important as OPS.  But here's one that needs
answering - he has apparently never played 3B, yet everyone is assuming that he
can play 3B.  Why is this?  Other concerns - how much does he make and how is he
in the clubhouse?  Also, he is probably not a true cleanup hitter.

There was a first baseman named Mike Jacobs last year who hit 25-30 HRs every
year since forever, yet he was always below everyone's radar and KC got him from
Florida for a washed-up RP.  I was pissed at the time (I didn't even know he was
available) and said so in here.

Yet Florida got the last laugh over me (and KC) because it turned out that
Jacobs went from a 25 HR guy to a zero HR guy (assumedly) just by switching
leagues.

Anyway, I don't know why I brought that up.  If it's the change in leagues, that
can work for you as well as against you.  And Uggla will get the Baltimore
version of a tickertape down Broadway.  His newly healthy ego will put him in a
good mood before he swings a bat.

You know what?  This guy will likely swat more than a few regardless of average
and we should put on a full-court press.  If he sucks, he sucks, but at least we
will have gone down swinging for once.  And if there is ever a time to trade for
him, following last year is it.  How about Chris Ray and Wigginton with a
conditional second player from them to us depending on Wiggy's (and/or Uggla's)
results?

I know SF is after him, too, and they are never afraid to pull the switch, so I
feel we had better act swiftly or we won't act at all.  I'll even go on record
as an Official Fang Proponent of any reasonable swap we can put together to
bring this guy to the Yards.  But I fear that if we don't do it by the end of
this coming weekend, he will be gone.

Uggla's a 2nd baseman with below average defense, range and speed. It would be a
gamble putting him at 3rd. He's kinda like a slow Luke Scott without a glove.
 
The O's need pitching more than anything and would have to give up some pretty
good pitching prospects to get him. The Fish have an outstanding scouting staff
and know what they'd want from the O's in return. The big thing is if the O's
would be willing to give up those pitching prospects for Uggla.
 
Uggla doesn't excite me at 3rd. Wouldn't be a completely bad acquisition but I
think the O's can get by at 3rd with someone else if they concentrate more on
pitching and defense. With Markakis, Jones, Weiters and Roberts.... the urgency
isn't for someone to pound the ball all the time.... it's to keep other teams
from pounding the ball all the time and surrounding their pitching with good
defense.

Uggla is 29. He strikes out a lot - but has a pretty decent OBP. Given
the consistent ~30 HRs and 90RsBI o er 4 years despite BA, I'd take
it.

First of all, ever notice that MacPhail is always "laying the groundwork?"  Why
can't he ever just make a deal and come home instead of torturing us Hot Stove
fans?

As for Uggla, he had a terrible year, no question.  But this guy has some
serious power and has been a decent enough for-average hitter in the past as
well.

The question is: was last year a signal to the beginning of the end for him, or
just one of those years?  (I wonder how old he is).  And would a move to the AL
be better or worse for him?  And don't forget that a trade means we have to send
someone back; thus the term "trade".  Who would that be?

But all in all, since MacPhail loves to roll the dice on people, I'd rather see
him roll the dice on Uggla in a hearbeat - even at a higher cost - rather than
some doofus Florida Marlin catching reject.

I've loved this guy for years.  If he is anything close to what he was only two
years ago, this dude is one serious hitter and would be a great addition.

It's a money deal, as both are underpaid.  We have nobody of similar salary to
offer them without tapping into the Kiddie Corps, which is out of the question. 
Besides, I think I'd rather have Sherrill back than Jackson.

Word is the Orioles at the GM meetings this week laid the ground work for a
trade for Marlins IF Dan Uggla. Uggla who plays 2nd can play 3rd about as good
as he can play 2nd and had a strong arm. Uggla has pop to his bat hitting 121
HR's in 4 seasons but whats holding him back from requiring multiple top

hy do the O's continue to scarpe the barrel for players and expect the overall
team to get better. Admittingly the back up catcher doens't mean all that much
but still this kind of appraoch will spill over into other positions.I guess
Chad Moeller's mentor days are over.

Right and even the original author was posturing. I mean I think his main
reason for it making sense was salary.
