Ditto

 

Not even for David Price.

 

For everyone that wants Kemp to be traded, here are the stats of the 3 main OF's of Puig, Ethier and Kemp since MK was inserted as the regular LF and started to get regular AB's(I ignored the first 3 games after DM got him 2 AB's in the span of 8 days prior).
.263/.341/.391/.732 1 HR 12 RBI
.294/.357/.431/.788 3 HR 23 RBI
.231/.302/.342/.644 1 HR 10 RBI

The power outage from all 3 over the span of 30-40 games sucks, but which of those numbers looks most appealing? If under producing Kemp has that line, I am fine (oh he is .294...) with him in LF. Stewart said those things at the exact time CC came back, that is nothing more than a power play to make sure his client doesn't start splitting time. If Stewart is worth his salt, he can call each team in the league and ask if his client could play CF for their club and I guarantee you any interest he gets is not from a contender. He is a LF'er and I believe that deep down he knows that and this was all about, "keep my client everyday in the field and he'll be happy". Just like many of us would do in that situation. Most of our problems with Kemp lie from Puig sucking for the past month plus, AGon playing like shit the past 50 games, Hanley barely able to stay on the field and the CF fiasco of Ethier. Everyone expects Kemp to hit .340 and hit 40 homers, so since the whole offense is slumping and he is not producing like that, everyone is keying in on him. If Hanley is healthy and Puig and AGon are putting up respectable stats, Kemps numbers would look pretty damn good in the 5/6 hole. This teams problem is not Kemp in LF, it needs to move Ethier or Crawford and bring up a prospect who has nothing left to prove in MiLB and hope guys like AGon, Puig and Hanley can get their shit together.

 

Yikes!

 

That bobblehead is a bit scary, truly...but it is pretty accurate. Considering that likenesses they have come up with for time to time, this is actually one of the better ones.

 

Tommy Milone wants out of Oakland. I'd be down for sure.

 

As with most posts or texts the key is put a scarcastic symbol or smile or any emoticon to indicate intent so forgive me if your response to me indicated humor. All I read was a over the top diatribe or temper tantrum if you will. As far as my dead shit you can't write great stuff every damn time. Your expectations are too high!

 

I love the picture of our four all stars showing off their jerseys. Kershaw, Greinke, Gordon, and Puig in order.

:darkcloud::finger: :vlick:

 

I guess so...I don't even know where the emoticons are, so I don't use them. No matter.
I do expect top shelf posts from you at all times, however.
(Where's the smilie things?)

 

I will admit we need help in the pen and the back end of the rotation, please do something as quick as possible Ned, we can't just wait on it

 

Pederson for Cishek!

 

ugh, no

 

That's a deal I could see Ned making.

 

... I don't think that will happen, Kasten won't allow something so dumb, but we need to make a move

 

I think there's something to be said for trading for a solid reliever, not a closer who will be moved out of that role. It just seems that however ironic it is, closers aren't mentally tough enough to be in another spot.

 

This is more-so because of off days and not because Haren sucks, but I'll take it... hopefully by August 2nd we have another starter anyways

 

Why can't we get nice things like Dre, Crawford, Haren, Perez, and Maholm getting injured shagging fly balls in warmups or taking a liner to the face during BP? Instead Hanley and Puig get HBP and are day to day!

 

Haren and Perez are most useful shagging balls in BP
