Right now, Walker, Gorman, Burleson and Saggese seem comparable

Post by Shady »

In what they can contribute. It will be interesting to see which two emerge to get the most playing time this season. Will it actually be based on production? I feel Burleson and Saggese are the two best hitters, overall.

There are no similarities except that none are complete players.

However, Walker seems like he can actually play Defense.

Not only is Gorman better than Burleson now his ceiling is much higher. There is no equivalency between the two. Finally someone (Bloom?) told Oli to stop benching Gorman for a slap hitter. And Walker is going to play regularly as Bloom.wants to know what he has. Sorry if this disappoints but them's the breaks.

I don't think you could get much in trade for Burly, but you could get value from the other two.

I feel Burly is the most worthless player on the team.
A hit-only player who can't slug his way out of a wet paper bag.

Why's that? Why not give your baseball opinion instead of a snide remark?

It's not a snide remark...it's a legitimate concern. You're not right. In the head. Is it dementia? Is it loneliness since your son abandoned you? Or were you always crazy?

I only ask because you seem to enjoy being an annoying troll.

From a guy that lives in Fantasyland half the time. Somebody else here is in need of somebody to get him some help with reality. That's you, Frenchy boy. You are so far behind on reality you think you are ahead. I use to feel you were just trying to be cute. But now I think you are just plain goofy.

To me Saggese is the most talented considering offense and defense. The problem is you have them forcing Gorman to second and Donovan is gold glove. My fear is they trade Saggese.

Burleson never has impressed me. There are thousands of players similar to him.

Walker and Gorman who knows?

Again the issue is the the “Arenado” problem jamming the infield.

Arenado came in pretty handy today. By the way, Saggese is just "scratching the surface" as to his hitting ability.

"There are no similarities except that none are complete players'. What is Saggese lacking?
