Looks like we could get a Melvin for Ubaldo deal...WhoooHoooo! Maybe the Pads get a prospect as well...although the O's organization is pretty bare, Preller likes to dive deep.

Yet he's been every bit as worth as Grandal and however in real baseball for the Padres--We got our fist Cycle from him and you got...........another year of almost making it to the World Series because you know, spending makes it right...................Originally posted by eldiablo505

I think the Pads will make the deal if they get a prospect otherwise they really aren't saving much.Originally posted by Hornsby View PostComment

I'm neither a Padres or Dodgers fan and i enjoy the lively banter between the two of you but..
Good Lord... in my lifetime the Dodgers have won exactly 2 World Series. Two...in 50 years... sorry ElD the Dodgers organization sucks. Not SD suckage, but still pretty pathetic.
And the Padres have been in the WS more recently than the Dodgers."I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."Comment

hehe you don't hurt my feelings when you bash the Padres, now the fact you never call anymore, that makes me sad.Originally posted by eldiablo505
Again, we see this from two different perspectives and as a Dodger fan you really won't ever have the Padre perspective.
Is Kemp worth his contract? Not if you evaluate by WAR of other analytics. But to the casual fan, the casual PADRE fan, he has been far more valuable than Grandal.
I'll try to be specific when discussing real vs fantasy in the future.........

So with Cashner obviously heading out of San Diego the rotation going forward looks like this:
Perdomo
Rea
Jackson
Clemens
Freidrich
I understand some here have questioned why I have Perdomo rostered in multiple leagues, but I promise, the kid is someone you want to grab now at a buck or two and keep going into next season.
he's lowered his ERA every month and this month has a 3.45 ERA in 4 starts. His last start vs the Nats was solid.
Again, if you have roster room, take a flier on him. You might just be pleasantly surprised come end of the season.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Ross is theoretically back eventually, who would he bump?Comment

If Ubaldo is really on the way, Clemens gets the boot. Ross isn't supposed to be back til mid/ate august if then and I would think the Padres go to a 6 man rotation at that point.Originally posted by overkill94 View PostIf I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Or Ubaldo will be used strictly for batting practice...Originally posted by GwynnInTheHall View Post

It is stellar, the Dodgers have been huge disappointment for almost 30 years.

Doesn't take a genius to know the Dodgers have been tremendous letdown for almost 30 years.Originally posted by eldiablo505"I lingered round them, under that benign sky: watched the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how any one could ever imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth."Comment
