The A's DFA'd him. If he makes it through waivers and doesn't get traded, would we want him as our 5th OFer instead of Fuld since we wouldn't have to pay him more than league minimum?
Willy Taveras?

I wouldn't want him in any role to be honest. He doesn't get on base enough to lead off, and I don't know how much better he would perform in a limited role over Fuld. Pass.

Maybe Rudy turns his game around???
He's a real CF and fast!
Fat Bastard is an immensely obese, hardly able to walk (weighing a metric ton) gardener and henchman hailing from Scotland. His extreme size endows Fat Bastard with super-human strength as exhibited by his prowess in the Sumo ring from Goldmember. This makes him a formidable enemy for Austin Powers. Fat Bastard is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, his vulgar and revolting bad manners and his unusual eating habits, which include taste for Human infants (which he calls "the other other white meat") or anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people. Fat Bastard has been a regular at Cub games since the early 80's when he tried several times (unsuccessfully) to eat the visiting San Diego Chicken.

As a 5th OFer I don't think he would be bad. He is one of the fastest guys in baseball and plays damn good defense. He would be a great late inning replacement and pinch runner. For league minimum, I don't think I would mind.

He would be our 5th OFer...we wouldn't be signing him for offense....we would be signing him to be the fastest guy on our team and a defensive replacement for Alf late in games.

We all remember the day he threw two cubs out at the plate. Most reds fans did not think he was a good defender. I think he is better than he played last year, but not worth signing.
I like you guys a lot.

No way he's better than Fuld.

Like Joey Gathright last year? <!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--> The difference is that Taveras actually has a good arm and the ability to throw people out. |
