Ive got such wood for Duaner Sanchez I was tempted to go find what horrible things I said about him and the Mets when we traded for him, only I can't find the thread in our vaults, or the other one. Little help? Who else has Duaner wood? What a stylish windup. What enthusiasm!

I didn't look at these links, I'm turning in ... http://www.google.com/search?q=sanchez+site%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fcybermessageboard.ehost.com%2Fgetalife&sourceid=mozilla-search&start=0&start=0&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official

Ask Bret, he probably knows where to find it. He always seems to be able to recall and use anything that you have said in the past against you.

So...? I said LoDuca batting second was a horrible, horrible idea. It was my main off season beef. Now it looks like no one else should bat second but him. As far as Sanchez goes--GOGGLES FOR EVERYONE!

Fascinating thread already, isn't it? And a pretty good one too, with a few good jokes, a song parody and movie quotes, and some spirited debate on a hot topic, but not much name-calling and other crap so typical of more recent threads. Aspire to the Seo Thread. By the way, I'm sorry I had to ask for it because my idea was a quiz where I cut-n-paste the comments and challenge the contestants to match the poster with the remark.

Interesting things: if you believe our esteemed journalistic visitor (Adam, right?), Hillbilly was pretty much dead on that that the Cameron move was something that had to happen before the Mets moved for a big hitter. A lot of passionate reacting bordering on paranoiac behavior --- but only Valadius goes full hog. Centerfield is using the Cameron-Nady deal as an excuse to refile his complaint about the Lo Duca deal.

That said, we should be able to get more than a mediocre reliever for him, no? Maybe not. Elster88 wrote: I voted dislike. Even though I'm not in love with Seo, I wouldn't have made this deal. A mediocre reliever and a prospect were the return for a decent starter and our own prospect. Elster88 wrote: ]Hillbilly makes the best argument for the Seo trade, which is hopefully the reasoning Omar had. "Seo is nothing special and Sanchez will help the bullpen." I say hopefully because other proposed motivations are ethnic cleansing and personal animosity. I was wrong (at least so far), because I thought Sanchez was "mediocre". At least I didn't curse out this trade the way I did the Benson/Julio deal. Hillbilly and heep are the winners, they liked the trade.

Let's be careful about declaring winners (or losers for that matter) in trades after jsut two weeks. These things have a habit of changing either rapidly or eventually.

My apologies. Next time I'll put "(at least so far)" in at least two of the sentences in my three-sentence post.

KC Apr 18 2006 07:29 AM

I have Sanchez at BAA (high) in the predictions.

Frayed Knot Apr 18 2006 07:34 AM

I'm just speaking in general here. Same, btw, goes for the Benson/Julio-Maine deal.

Edgy DC Apr 18 2006 07:35 AM

I like the borderline paranoia. Good drama. It's when peeps surrender to it --- particularly a young man like Valadius with his life ahead of him --- that it gets tragic.

metirish Apr 18 2006 07:58 AM

I haven't read back on what I said if anything, but I did post that Duaner is hot looking, so yeah Dickshot I have wood for him......

Bret Sabermetric Apr 18 2006 09:10 AM

I don't get this business of reviewing your predictions every couple of weeks to pat yourselves on the back, or kick other people in the ass. Are your lives really so empty?

Elster88 Apr 18 2006 09:22 AM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Apr 18 2006 09:23 AM

Whose life is more empty? a) the people who have nothing better to do than review their predictions or b) the people who have nothing better to do then to say nasty things to the people who review their predictions

Elster88 Apr 18 2006 09:23 AM

Oh and SHUT THE FUCK UP. This is a baseball site. We're discussing baseball.

Bret Sabermetric Apr 18 2006 09:32 AM

Thanks, Elster. That was just what I was looking for. You won't mind if I quote you on that, will you, buddy? As to the baseball stuff, I'm surprised that I was as mildly querical of Omar as I was in that Seo/Sanchez thread, allowing him the possibility of proving his critics wrong with such a blatent challenge trade. So far, Omar's looking pretty good, though I still have some faith in Seo to turn in a decent year.
