One way or another, you just had to have an injury-prone slugger, didn't you?

I feel warm and fuzzy.

Honestly, I don't know why they'd even want to trade him at this point.

I think anyone suggesting it is a half-wit.

$25m/yr for three years? Plenty of teams could afford that contract.

Not very much of it, I wouldn't think.

By that measure, there were only sixty-two qualified "good" hitters last year.

Last year, Ichiro batted .283 -- 51 points higher than Granderson -- yet actually got on base at lower rate than Granderson. Combine that with Granderson's superiority in the power department, and I think most people would take Granderson over Ichiro last year.

Don't be trying to come up in here with that weak ****, CLEM!

Walks quite a bit, too. Ranked 18th in BB/PA last year.

.232, actually.

Despite that, his OBP was league average and his SLG% ranked 35th in all of baseball. He ranked 52nd in all of baseball in OPS.

It wasn't his best year, to be sure, but he was certainly well above average with the bat.

The nerve of him to get hit by pitches!

Only a fool would say that.

Buy Rodriguez out? That's over $100M. Not going to happen.

Also, what it your problem with Granderson?

That really is a crying shame.

This is no laughing matter, Robataille.

Everyone on Earth knows that substance abuse is a very serious problem and that a drink (or two, HILLBILLY) is not going to help Josh Hamilton -- to suggest it is just irresponsible.

Serious problems call for serious solutions. Mike Scioscia needs to cut to the heart of the matter and get Hamilton a crack pipe and a heroin IV drip. Stat.

An angry old man, huh?

Buehrle was a damn valuable pitcher in his time with the White Sox.

In fairness, it's not Buehrle's fault the White Sox sucked and couldn't score any runs to get him wins.
