you're a piece of work.

Exactly how did I "bait" him Craviduce? I did not such thing. And you know it. You do very well with the minor leaguers, but when you start chastising other posters over very little you lose your oomph. I very simply started this thread because I haven't heard much chatter about Torres, and he's put up great slash lines at Memphis over the past two years. A new topic to consider during this lull period. Then the usuals started picking at little nothings like whether he's really a catcher or not. And finally the little stalking troll shows up. And you accuse me of threatening him? That's a joke, not true and you know it. Suggest you stop getting your juices up, like you're seeing a red cape.

Coincidentally, a “veteran scout” gave
me “sage advice” one time. He said, “Never evaluate a prospect based on mindless regurgitation of his unadjusted college and minor league baseball card stats and wiki bio.”

Cranny, I assume you’re referring to the poster who wrote “Baghdad Bob”?
So you can refer to him as “little Septuagenarian troll” but he can’t refer to you as “Baghdad Bob?
I don't like little trolls attacking me in an appropriate way, GoldFan. And neither would you. Plus, I have
nothing to do with "Baghdad". Different era. Maybe he's got the wrong person.

you constantly threaten posters with "what the Mods will do?"...or "Do you want to get banned?"
You go ahead....keep lying.

Once again...he reported me because he got his feelings hurt. .we were both suspended for a time and told to put the other on ignore...which I have done...he constantly quotes my posts and has been called out for lying...and then threatens to report me... again! And continues to whine on every thread...very sad.

That's absolute baloney, Craviduce. I have a stalker and it's more than obvious. Others have noticed it. Why haven't you?

Cards like the fact that he plays multiple positions. He may just be a late bloomer.

I simply and politely pointed out that he isn’t a catcher. You’re the one who argued it instead of saying, “you’re right, he doesn’t catch anymore and hasn’t in years.”
That only became something because YOU made it something.

Hey, you guys are better than this. Normally I just tune out when it turns into the inevitable pissing match. But I gotta say, as a short octogenarian, hrrrrumphh.
Meanwhile, the original topic: This guy is the 40th guy on a 40 man roster with a lot of strikes, as it were, against him. If he were somehow to get to the big club, wow, that would be something!
It's going to be interesting to see how much our roster changes this winter/spring. None of it is likely to matter until 2028.

By the way, AOF, I started this thread and made the 1st post. What I said, after I showed his slash lines from his 2024 and 2025 outstanding offensive seasons was - "he's played 2B, 3B, 1B, C, and OF. How that got turned around, I have no idea. But it's really unimportant. Correctors have to correct. Bashers have to bash.

As poor as the offense was last season…..and with NA, Donny, Winn out …..why didn’t Cards bring him up last year if he has such potent bat??
