So Taguchi- starting RF next season?

[Neutered Cat]

Just a topic of discussion.

I would give it serious thought if i were Larussa, for a couple of reasons. One, he would make very little money and would save room on the payroll. Two, he's been pretty good this year, playing every game. I think he has proven that he can do that. Plus, i think the team needs an outfielder with speed who can bunt, field, or get a basehit.

We can either re-sign Reggie or someone else for LF.

No

No way in hell.

reason why?

[Neutered Cat]

It seems to me that his numbers are pretty decent for playing almost every game this year. I mean, we can't sign a big name FA every year to play needed positions.

No, but we can sign a legit starter. A .790 OPS (with an inordinate amount of ABs coming against LHP) doesn't do it for me, even if he can bunt. Plus, he's 36, so it's not as if he's about to hit his prime.

Just because we have other guys in the lineup who can hit doesn't mean we should be happy including guys who can't.

He's had a great month, but let's don't get crazy.

So's got very little power for an outfielder, he's old, and not really that fast. He's a very solid ballplayer, the kind you love on your bench.

And, by the way, the Cards have money and will have even more next year.

[El Establishment 1]

Nope.


Not good enough.

[Neutered Cat]

He should be our starting center fielder.



Just sayin.

I am a little racist on this. Asian women often age more gracefully than other women. I wonder if there is a difference in the peak athletic age of Asian men.

If you're the owner of the Tokyo Barn Swallows, or whatever they're called, or the Chicago Cubs ( ), then I'd agree with you.
