It really is amazing how bad Rube is at filling out the roster.

Similar Batters: 4=Melky, 7=Xavier Nady, 8=James Loney (huh....never thought any of these guys were similar)
Similar through 22 = Baldelli
Similar through 24 = Yaz
Similar through 25 and 26 = yay guys


What's really crazy is that at age 26 he still has Al Oliver 4, Harold Baines 5, Yaz 6, Clemente 8 and Winfield 10.

I hate this guy, both the way he plays and the way he is.

I hope he does great.

Stark says the owners were nervous about the off-the-field stuff and were hesitant to sign him

37 players qualified got 500+ PA while playing primarily LF, RF, or DH.

2 of them actually had a worse OPS+ than Delmon (Jeff Francouer and Brennan Boesch).

Michael Young didn't qualify, as he only played DH like 40% of the time. But, if we limit to DH, and 40% of games.... Michael Young and Delmon Young were the 2 worst DH's in league last year, and they're now our 3B and LF.


On the bright side, 2012 was only the 2nd time in his career that Delmon Young had at least as many GDPs as walks. That's gonna be fun to watch.

I hope this is a hoax and there is no such player as Delmon Young

Neither nervous nor hesitant enough.

Any change Michael Young or Aaron Cook are Jewish? We could kill 2 mistakes with one transaction here.

Don't poke God's eyes.

Also, I hate Delmon Young like I hated Mike Vick. I want him to fail in embarassing and painful ways with non-deleterious effects to the Phillies.

Isn't Amaro half-Jewish? His mom is probably pissed.
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

Not sure. Have to listen to the Sandler song and see if he's mentioned.
