posty 2,296 Posted July 31, 2018 I like LL. He wasn't too bad when he pitched for the Cardinals, but his first year out of St. Louis has been a disaster... A change of scenery might do him some good, but his numbers have been awful this season... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 31, 2018 you must be new here. Lou Gorman and Dan Duquette. I liked Theo, just thought he got all of the credit for 2004, when that's just not even close to true. Duquette is killing it this year. Lou Gorman is famous for saying, the sun will rise, the sun will set, and Ill have lunch. That and trading Bagwell for Larry Anderson.

vuduchile 1,941 Posted August 1, 2018 Nothing better than the baseball non-waiver trade deadline... I've never been a fan of teams renting players for 2-3 months. On the whole, it can make the playoff push and the post season more interesting, but it cheapens it a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
