Have you been paying attention also?

Dude's been raking all month, he's got like 6 dinger, hitting about .350, and making all the plays in the field.
His bat is still alive, big time.

this

[BRAVES1985]

Not yet, but it's getting close. He's been better at the plate the last few games. Let's see how May plays out, the dude is a professional hitter, he'll adjust, he's still one of the best right handed hitters going to right field, never was a pull hitter.

the last 2 games hes 1-10 and has barely hit the ball out of the infield (i think once) 2-17 in the last 4 games

[DemoralizdDreamr]

varitek .048

[DemoralizdDreamr]

all of pittsburgh pitching staff and astros.
Washington's hitters aside from werth.

[samgurt]

not sure if alex cora EVER belonged

[HoulihansTX]

Jason Veritek

Barry Zito

Kevin Kouzmanoff

Raul Ibanez



who else??

Varitek finally retired.

Raul Ibanez plays for Yanks
Barry Zito is still living the dream

[HoulihansTX]

Why did the Phillies sign Jim Thome? Is there really no young prospect with potential that could SO for cheap?

[Mriceyman]

Raul ibanez... 4 for 45 in spring lolol

George Sherrill is stealing money with the Mariners... 3 batters faced 3 hits 1HR, never earned an OUT, and his ERA was infinite. No joke.

This guy sucked 3 years ago with the Dodgers. I knew my under, or Dodger bets were dead once he trotted out the bullpen. He is hopless,b ut he must have a bunh of hunting buddies that are GM's.

[zoo youk]

C'mon Raul Ibanez can still hit. I'd have to say Brad Eamus and Luis Castillo....and pretty much the whole D'Backs pitching staff outside of Daniel Hudson.

wtf? surprised no one else has commented on this, outside of Joe Saunders they have one of the best rotations in the NL.

but back to the subject. Jon Garland, Juan Pierre, Manny Ramirez, Jack Wilson, Latroy Hawkins and entire Cubs roster.

[HoulihansTX]

Juan Pierre is still a viable baseball player. If he gets on-base, he is stealing the rest.

Jason Veritek

Barry Zito

Kevin Kouzmanoff




Raul Ibanez



who else??

Ibanez doesn't belong in the majors? Evidently, you don't know too much about baseball.

[Pabinator]

Jose Canseco should be back as a DH

[PickWinnerAllDay]

Alfonso Soriano. I wish the Cubs had cut him.

[stevenash]

Raul ibanez... 4 for 45 in spring lolol

And he looks totally lost at the plate, like clueless.

[PickWinnerAllDay]

And he looks totally lost at the plate, like clueless.

Spring training means nothing to veterans.

Soriano's OPS is 1.160 in spring training, yet when the season starts, he'll probably be trying to claw above .700 and embarrassing himself at the plate.

[RoadDog]

Houli dont you ever say Juan Uribe doesnt have a place in the Majors! He was a part of the best team of the 2000s. The '05 Champion White Sox! I will forever remember Juan's catch in the bottom of the ninth in game 4 when he caught the ball over his shoulder falling into the stands. 05, what a year hahaha

[HoulihansTX]

Wakefield
Mike Cameron
Brett Gardner
Vernon Wells
Chone Figgins
Brad Penny
Jake Westbrook
Joe Saunders
BJ Upton

Possible one of the worst calls in SBR history. JJ Gold would be proud.

Guy is the Yanks best outfielder.

[HoulihansTX]

Octavio Dotel and Dontrelle Willis.

Octavio Dotel was the best relief pitcher of last years playoffs , and Cards do not make win it all without him.

[RoadDog]

Wakefield must have seen this list coming because he retired a while ago...

[HoulihansTX]

lance berkman

Another horrific call.

[RoadDog]

Houli, if you want to name an 05 White Sox that shouldnt be in the majors I'd start with Aaron Rowand hahaha. Nice contract.

[stevenash]

Spring training means nothing to veterans.

I know this, but I know I have seen 7 Yankees games this spring, and I know more than enough baseball to know his bat speed is slower than it used to be, he's not picking up the ball out of the pitchers hand right away, and his body language is saying "I have no more confidence"

[yisman]

Raul Ibanez looks washed up.

[HoulihansTX]

Raul Ibanez looks washed up.

he has been bad for two years.

[stevenash]

^
He's 39 years old, Ibanez has had a nice career, but the game has passed him by

[yisman]

he has been bad for two years.

Agreed, which is why I was surprised when the Yankees got him. They could get someone better without it costing them much, plus they have old players like A-Roid and Jeter who they may want to use at DH sometimes.

[HoulihansTX]

They were choosing between Ibanez, and Damon. Damon is the better player IMO.
