Its great to see Gregg starting to get the job done. I would like to see if approval rating a little higher. I really like the Ryan Freel deal. He is an excellent bench player and utility guy. Now all we need to do is trade for DeRosa again. He is going to get traded, why not us? I love poll. Its great to see Gregg starting to get the job done.

Really? </blockquote> It's the EA Sports GM mentality. Every starter should get at least 20 wins.

Only 58% of folks are confident that Marshall can fill his role adequately as a #5 starter? Really?

Only 58% of folks are confident that Marshall can fill his role adequately as a #5 starter? Really? Only 45% are confident in Bradley? Strange... These confidence results are really interesting.

Is it solely because the big money guys are not living up to their contracts, is it that everyone in town loves the Backup QB like is usually the case here in MadTown...who knows But I definatly see a more productive lineup with Hoffpuar at 1B and Bobby Hill or Glenallen Hill or Rich Hill catching...wait isn't it Koye I am kinda surprised that Fontenot is rated so high what has he done this year?

Not the old second basemen...the son of Hank Hill from King of the Hill. Who could disapprove of that kid? I thought it was Bobby Hill.

You must be a moron to think that the position player was Rich Hill. Are you stupid? Everone knows that Joe was looking for commenters opinion on '93-'94 outfielder and power hitter deluxe Glenallen Hill. He had an OPS if 1.157 in 31 games in 1994...that is a large enough sample size to know he was All-Star material before the Cubs let him get away in '95. Its all about the obscure stats here at VFTB. Thank christ they got him back in 2000, where I saw the single greatest moment of the steroid era, when he hit a ball onto the roof of Gracey's apartment building. I feel that confidence in him should be much higher, even if he is 44 years old now. I say bring him back...can he play 3rd? http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3017957919029122909 GRAY BOX>>>>>And why is Rich Hill listed as a position player?<<<<GRAY BOX
