So, don’t give you proof?

A witty saying proves nothing.
– Voltaire

And you accuse others of being lazy and not thinking for themselves.

Well it would appear that Sandy just proved what I said yesterday in the Murphy thread.

“It’s do or die for Emaus according to Sandy Alderson who said ”Maybe he runs really well, or plays great defense. But in Emaus’ case, he’s competing for a starting position, and it’s unlikely that he’ll be here if he doesn’t earn that starting position.”

You are a freaking idiot. Why don’t you keep your crackpot opinions to yourself?

Do you really think he seeks out the media so he can get a sound byte.

You are becoming a real waste and stop with the “real baseball”. People come with to with facts and you dispell it because you don’t want to believe it.

“I’ve watched him turn double plays. He’s got very good hands. I like his feet around the bag. I think he’s got good-enough footwork to play second base. I mean, he’s here because the people who scouted him say he can hit, and he can hit the ball out of the ballpark.”

I hope the scouts took into account he hit 9 of his HR’s in Las Vegas last year. A place that apparently is known for balls leaving the park.

I believe for the sake of this argument you misspelled it. It should be “Wrighter.”

i have to agree Harry….and I have to wonder myself about debating some of them because I think a lot of their arguments are fueled by their love of fantasy baseball and they think that it translates to real baseball. I’m not surprised by who the people are who’ve joined the new MMO Fantasy League.

hey, it’s harmless fun and good for them but they have to keep in mind how fantasy works and how REAL life baseball works. 2 different things.

why is it that a disagreement means that someone is incapable of thinking for themselves?

Why bother Bayonne. People like Donal who are incapable of thinking for themselves don’t have a clue what you just wrote. If you quoteds one of his loves, sandy or david, he would agree. He wouldn’t know why but he would still tell you he did.

The problem is Bayonne you see what you want to see.

The idea that because you think you know what your seeing therefore you are right and everyone else is wrong is a weak argument.

I say based on what I see Wright has produced in big spots.

How do you show that what i am seeing is any more correct that what you are seeing?

In the end it’s a matter of opinion. You have yours others have theirs.

Yours are no more righter than mine then.

And don’t give me his “statistics” What was it that Vin Scully said? Maniac posted it…wait…here it is:

“Stats can sometimes be like a drunk leaning on a lamppost. They are used more for support than illumination.” Vin Scully.

” the only thing i want from him is to finally be able to produce when it matters and stop choking in big spots ”

Four words

You are verifiably wrong

“He exhibits no personal accountability.”

3 words.

I respectfully Disagree.

I’m not interested in any quotes from Wright, the only thing i want from him is to finally be able to produce when it matters and stop choking in big spots AND….start hustling out of the batter’s box.
Guy does a lot of talking for someone who is just as responsible for our failures in the past.
He exhibits no personal accountability.
