0 for 4? send him back down! Runners steal on pitchers , not necessarily catchers

I think that this Martin guy can SHOOT! Every time I watch him, he seems to be getting more athletic. He'll fit right in to the corner shooters when Jake leaves. An exact replacement?

No defense.... No play... We don't have anyone in the line up to cover for him. We will live or die with his defense. His last year's team died with him.

ummmm no... doesn't block out, rebound or play a controlled game. Were you not watching the last two games?? GREAT physical talent , I agree go back and look for SKILLS.... He'll get there...with some coaching and direction. He's NOT Michael. What FULL package were you referring to? Manna...

No! He's a defensive catcher first.... Hitting has come in the last year...

Was Cason cut loose by Michigan?

Wilson was uncoached. Remember, he played for Hubert Davis at UNC, and was completely undeveloped. He's a blank slate for the Bulls and has shown it in the summer league.... All raw talent, little technical basketball skills. Now, if he had gone to the Beloved.... ;-) He needs A LOT of "rounding."

It Was a bad send we all agree. But we're on a lucky streak right now and it felt good to have a Suzuki right there to bail us out. What I love is aggressive, smart baseball. That was aggressive, not smart. I wouldn't even sent PCA. El Mago, maybe, with his slideability.... ;-)

I don't think that there is an incoming freshman in out class that you can sleep on. Best player in Wisconsin, top player in Missouri, great players in Iowa, great springy player from Illinois, east coast all star... They are all super competitive and used to carrying their team. When Fletched...

I miss Keaton....

So, what I hear you saying is that you question the strategy of head coaches EVERYWHERE who automatically sit players who get two fouls in the first half? Got it. The reason that they do that is the player starts getting tentative in his play and trying "not to foul" instead of letting the...

Why are we talking about Bo/Woody on a BASKETBALL site?
