Law's too Yankee-biased. Neyer listed Melky Cabrera on his Top 100 Players That Will Help Now and In the Future list-enough said.Quote:

Keith Law: Jason, you must be new here. I hate EVERYBODY. I hate all 30 teams. I hate their GMs, managers, and clubhouse boys. I hate all prospects, I hate both sides of every trade ever made, I hate any contract signed for over the minimum. I hate fans of all thirty teams. And most of all, I hate YOU. Greg Reynolds is a 4th starter in the big leagues, but that's based on what I saw of him as an amateur and I'd like to see him healthy as a pro.
You don't think Cabrera will help now and in the future?Quote:

Get this though: neither Erik Bedard or Felix Hernandez were on that list. Suspicious, no?Quote:

Felix Hernandez is still really young, and Rob Neyer prefers young position players over young pitchers because the attrition rate is so high.
Also, what list are you referring to? Link?
Well actually it's the Top 50, but still. Here's the link.Quote:

Yeah after the pierced johnson remark the thread went down hill.
I guess some people have to always be serious.
yeah the idea kind of takes the air out of a fun discussionQuote:

Clearly, you missed the point, or are just being a jerk.
