And now you still state some things that you said you were wrong about, and continue saying things that are just as wrong and/or crazy. You haven't changed in the least bit.

Marlon Anderson and Juan Pierre, on the other hand, have little or no semblance of power, and are not good at getting on base. They are the opposite of "productive hitter."

Whatever. Before this forum I had never heard Adam Dunn spoken of positively.

AND I SAID I WAS WRONG ABOUT THAT...

What more do you people need?

That's because you don't look all that deep for baseball information.

You'd also be a lot better off if you were willing to learn, instead of preferring to remain ignorant.

It was hilarious, either way. And as Houston stated, you have gone against what you said in that thread, OVER and OVER

I'm guessing this is the first forum you posted on then.

I hope no one signs him, he doesn't deserve to be working in baseball

40 home runs EVERY YEAR for 4 years straight and 46 home runs the year before that, among the league leaders every year. Of course he deserves to be working in baseball, more than most people in the game.

I seriously don't know why you bother with metsguy anymore, it really isn't worth it....

A little OT for what we're talking about, but I wish OBP included errors. Whether you beat out a muffed grounder or you are The Shadow and have The Power To Cloud Men's Minds...you're still getting on base.

He's not the first, but if you have a DH opening, he's definitly worth a long hard look at.
