Snow makes too much money. At least Micheals is cheap...

Mortimer 05-25-2008 10:25 PM

Then I will add Damon Jones and Here'sJhonny....but that's it.

You're not getting anymore.

Hickory Hill Hoff 05-25-2008 10:44 PM

What about Joe Charboneau ???

Mortimer 05-25-2008 10:53 PM

What about Edsels?

Fear the 'fro.

Storm Cadet 05-26-2008 08:22 AM

Jerry Dybzinski is the trade clincher...BTW Jerry and I were room mates for 2 years when I was a trainer for the Tribe in the 70's. Ah for the bad old days of Cleveland baseball...Municipal Stadium, bad baseball, and owners that couldn't care less. Just like the movie.


Kasept 05-26-2008 09:35 AM

No deal unless Lenny Randle is thrown in...

horseofcourse 05-26-2008 09:42 AM

The better Tribe utility infielder...

Jerry Dybzinski, Mike Fischlin, Mike Rouse, Larvell Blanks?? The mysteries are endless. Any trade must also include Johnny LeMaster.

Ah yes, Kuiper and Rick Manning...the mid 70s saviors! (of course Manning was getting it on with Eckersley's wife so they traded Eckersley. well-tuned organization back then!) main course childhood memories..the Oscar Gamble and Dybzinski cards brought tears to my eyes!

Hickory Hill Hoff 05-26-2008 10:03 AM

The 1978 Yankee fans will always remember this guy...


The Bid 05-26-2008 06:16 PM

Put one up of Tabler or Jacoby

Mortimer 05-26-2008 06:31 PM

Stick your pud in your zipper,sir.

Storm Cadet 05-26-2008 07:34 PM

Another of my former room mates who made the bigs for the tribe and a GREAT guy!


Mortimer 05-26-2008 07:41 PM

I was buds with Albert Einstein.

The Bid 05-27-2008 07:49 AM

Chris Bando was one of the worst catchers to ever make it to the majors.

Mortimer 05-27-2008 08:43 AM

Gosh...I didn't realize he made it to the majors.

stole it from Storm Cadet's stash

witchdoctor 05-27-2008 01:33 PM

Maybe the trade would go if they added a prospect like John Odom.

He wore one glove back then to protect a chronic bone bruise in his index finger. We couldn't pad the bat so we padded a glove to hit with. I don't know where that bat came from. Looks like one of those little league bats they used to give away for bat day to the kids.

Mortimer 05-27-2008 03:21 PM

In all seriousness....they will never sign Sabbathia..and I don't blame them. The time is now to trade him and restock the minors.

Oh that doesn't make any sense---Wedgie never brings anyone up until they are at least 25 and have been brainwashed into becoming Wedge Players.


But they could also package HJ and Byrd...and Dom Dellouise. That should bring maybe this 3rd baseman from Colorado....from what I've heard. They can have Blake and Marte ,too....maybe that would also swing one or two good prospects our way.



And then just fire Wedge.

YES!

horseofcourse 05-27-2008 03:36 PM

uh-ohh. I will break fine tradition here and agree with Morty's above post. Sabathia will not sign and after their last two signings (Hafner--useless), (Westbrook--injury prone) Sabathia should be a no go. His value is maxed out right now as he has thrown several very good games in a row now so suiters have his first 4 starts out of their minds. It is very early to say it is a lost season right now, but it sure appears to be headed that direction. A team will be willing to give up more for Sabathia now than late July as they will get him 2 extra months. An interesting situation developing for sure.

Interesting....don't you find it odd Carmona got a 30 DAY or more injury just when Westbrooks was due back off the dl? That would mean Aaron Koufax was out...and he was pitching as well as anyone.



I think it gave them a little time to cook a big one up.

Really--- a huge trade or trades is/are right there....coming soon.

horseofcourse 05-27-2008 03:49 PM

SAbathia has huge value. I think Sowers should be dealt as well. He is a soft tossing lefty fly ball pitcher. I think he's already had his best days. Some team may be fooled into taking him. Blake/Byrd/Dellucci are worthless and have zero value. Marte has now gone to zero value. Peralta may have some value still and could be worth dealing. I still don't know if Cabrera and/or Barfield can or will ever hit, but it may be worth it to still deal Peralta who in all honesty has more value than most on the team trade wise (don't laugh morty!). But the staff has 3 extreme ground ball pitchers in Carmona/Laffey and Westbrook and defense up the middle will be imperative once they deal Sabathia.

IN working a monster deal, Sabathia, Sowers, and Peralta are the big value guys.

Not a bad point on Sower....but make the team we trade with take the other ones!!

Or make it a 3 way....just get them out of here.



Really...the hand writing is on the wall...a big one is coming.

I just hope it's not stupid.

Mortimer 05-27-2008 05:15 PM

Here'sJhonny has just been traded for "Dammie---why do you do this to me,Dammie?"

Mortimer 05-27-2008 05:19 PM

We just got Hugh Beaumont for Dom Dellouise.




Hugh Beaumont will now be our fine left fielder and it will be Dom Dellouise ....as the Beavers Father.

Mortimer 05-27-2008 05:19 PM

How 'bout a nice hand for the suit?
