    [MENTION=355]steveAKAslick[/MENTION], glad to have you & thanks for posting... here's a friendly word of advice from a grizzled veteran: don't get in a slapfight with a troll on your maiden post. ;-)
    Thanks, glad to be here...just finally decided to post after seeing Niners post garbage nonstop...thought he was a troll but I'll be honest I'm still not completely positive, he's on some next level stuff and he might actually believe what he types on here...it's a conundrum

    Regarding Jace and TLS I don't think that's fair as we really don't know what TLS can do out there. He's either been hurt or platooned and hasn't gotten a chance to play. That said Jace is certainly playing better than what I think he could do. I'm still not sold on him being this good though. But if he is that's good for us.
    Yes, I would like to upgrade the position defensively and yes I thought he would be serviceable out there which he has been this year. I'm always looking for upgrades when we can get them.

    What you'll notice is that he is about the worst type of fan.

    So the Braves put up eight runs and haven't gotten a hit since the fourth inning...splendid.

    And you are the super homer. Also a bad type of fan. Maybe we should meet in the middle and make the ultimate fan.

    I'm now taking applications for the "middle of the road" bandwagon.

    We don't know that. All we know is that he has been a bargain in year 1.

    too inconsistant. It's either 6 singles in a row or grounders to the middle infield.

    Hope Hart finds a way to get some bullpen arms in here for next season.

    He's on pace for a little over 2 WAR. His contract is priced as a 2 WAR player. I fail to see how that's a bargain.

    Isn't it 11M? I thought it was up to 8 or 9 mil per WAR now.

    AAA is loaded with good relievers and we'll have S. Simmons and Withrow as well. Next year the bullpen will be pretty good.

    Granderson always seems to get his season on track when he plays us.

    We're now using castoffs from the Mets bullpen. I guess that tells us all we really need to know about where we stand.

    Talk and optimism are cheap but I sure hope you're right.
