something only a homer could say. If anyone can hit 300 and play good defense it will help any team out. but he wont and im damn sure of it. I heard talks of the A's trying to ship Kendall off but didnt think anyone in their right mind would trade for him. Well happy as can be as an A's fan right now as a fellow Hawaii boy steps in to catch. O yah Kurt Suzukis not an automatic out with zero homerun potential either. thank god. He matched Kendalls HR total in 2 years in like 10 games.
was that supposed to be a diss? 1st off it still doesnt make kendall any better than his horrible ass already is. Secondly I dont think I ever stated players from Hawaii were ridiculously good or will be good even though victorino is 10x better than jacque jones. horrible trade and thank you Cubs GM. You made an A's fan very happy...overjoyed
p.s. the caps lock definitely added flavor and emotion to your intelligent post
Smartz when I say it was a good trade for the Cubs im not saying it was a bad trade for the A's. I think it was a good trade for the A's. They got rid of an aging Jason Kendall who isnt playing up too his contract. So they will lose some of his contract but besides this year he has been a very reliable catcher both offensively and defensively. He is a career .298 hitter which is very impressive. I am hoping he turns it around but either way were not giving up much. Bowen is a backup catcher and the pitcher we are giving up has put up sick numbers in the minors this year but hes not a top prospect or anything. Good trade for both teams
