I like David Ortiz but how can a DH ever be MVP? Thats the only ?..Who else would you put as MVP You heard it here first..... Jermaine Dye. White Sox. .327 avg. 39 hr 106 rbi .650 slg. avg. Guy is a great fielder and very VERY clutch. So I'll cast my AL MVP vote for him. Red If Clevland made the playoffs you also have: Travis Hafner .310 Avg 42 Hr 116 RBI .662 slg percentage but he is also a DH _________________________ MKs ebay auctions

He became heralded for his results,short-term as they were. Yankee prospects are kept under the radar,when they arrive even Yankee fans are surprised. Over the years we have been told that Dave West,Dave Madigan,Greg Jeffries,Alex Escobar,Alex Ochoa,Diaz,ect,ect were all no doubt major league studs. On the other side of the river,over the last 18 months, we have seen Chin-Ming Wang(leading the league in wins),Robinson Cano(All-Star 2b),Melky Cabraera all join the club without any advance hype. I just get a kick out of everyone "knowing" the Yankee farm system stinks,yet they can reach down and fill almost any gap they need. For those of you who don't watch the Yankees on a regular basis,22 year old. Cano and the even younger Cabraera should be competing for batting titles for a long time to come. Cano has the sweetest swing since Tony Gwynn,imho. _________________________ Power corrupts. But absolute power is actually kind of neat..

And if you'll agree....let's just talk about now. If you're going to chide the Met's for Diaz.....and lets face it....(how many homegrown Yanks over the last five years are doing much of anything)..... then you better give them full credit for Reyes and Wright, who have been everything anyone could have wished for. I look at the Yankees.... aside from Jeter and Bernie....who are getting pretty long in the tooth....all I see are big ticket purchases.... Giambi Rodgriguez Damon Abreu ....the list goes on and on. The Yankees are getting older by the minute. Robinson Cano is about it for Yankee farm system material. He's got 4 x as many strikeouts as he does walks......he's not exactly All-Star material. See, Shad....you're the typical Yankee Fan.....you've long ago lost your ability to be objective and have replaced it with chest-thumping, block-headedness and a misplaced sense of entitlement. Fans aren't interested in the history books.....unless it's their particular team....what they're interested in is what the team is doing these days. And the Yanks are just part of a pack of teams. That's it. You seem to confuse writing a big check with high quality team management. Shad....you've developed into a pill....a one-note griper these days. Jeez.....it's monotonous! _________________________ The Manufactured Gold Thread still LIVES!....HERE! �Every act of dishonesty has at least two victims: the one we think of as the victim, and the perpetrator as well.

shadroch shadroch TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 10/28/02 Posts: 12001 Loc: limbo	Which Yankee prospect is leading the league in wins? Which Yankee was selected to the all-star team at second base?I guess your opinion counts more than the players who voted him onto the team. Where shall he return his AS ring to? But I'm not objective,correct? First Base-neither team has a homegrown prospect Giambi is younger,I think. Second base-Yankees -Homegrown,Mets-no. Cano is younger SS-both teams have HG players Reyes is younger 3B-Yankees no,Mets Yes.Wright is younger. Catcher-Yankees Yes,Mets no Not sure how old La Duca is OF-Yankees have two players that get a great deal of playing that are homegrown.Mets have none in the rotation Cabareara is youngest regular. Pitching-Yankees have Wang. Mets have a bunch of guys who haven't been able to hold a job. Both rotations are pretty aged.Wang is the only young starter on either team. Closer-Yankees,Yes. Mets No. Guess who is older? Edited by shadroch (08/31/06 04:02 PM)

shadroch shadroch TOTAL NEWBIE Registered: 10/28/02 Posts: 12001 Loc: limbo	Its a shame the Mets don't sign big ticket free agents. Just think where this team might be if only they had signed a Pedro,a Beltran,a Wagner,a Floyd,a Delgado,a La Duca,a Trascial,ect,ect. Guess we'll never know as the Mets don't play that game. _________________________ Power corrupts. But absolute power is actually kind of neat..

So where's your Reyes and Wright? Well, there is Jeter, Posade, Williams, Rivera, Cano, Wang, Cabrera. And in our title run years, you could add Pettitte too and I am sure that I am forgeting some as well. _________________________ Υπόλοιπος καλά, αδερφέ I am looking for the following: 9.0-9.2 CGC Journey Into Mystery 9.4 Thors up to 169 9.4 Batmans from 200-240
