He's not going to start at 1st. We have three guys right now and if Bird is healthy he'll be playing there most games. -- nm

He strikes out way too much and had an awful average but he still put up 41 hrs. That's not something to just ignore. -- nm - Krusty Feb 10, 06:48 5
- if he would learn to walk more, he would have some use, but a .290 OBP is poopies. -- nm - groiny Feb 10, 06:50 4
  - For 3.5 mil, you take your chances. - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Feb 10, 06:51 2
    - he makes Trumbo look like Tony Gwynn. -- nm - groiny Feb 10, 06:52 1
      - Trumbo had 1.6? War last year. Carter had to have better than a .5 - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Feb 10, 06:56
  - Heh. :-) Yup. -- nm - Krusty Feb 10, 06:51
he is a perfect DH, since he sucks in the field anyway. -- nm - groiny Feb 10, 06:48 5
- Yeah, I read that as well. We have Holliday slotted into the DH spot so I'm not really sure where Carter is going to fit. -- nm - Krusty Feb 10, 06:50 4
  - Depth. - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Feb 10, 06:52 3
    - I assume they'll split the DH duties but if neither gets regular enough at bats I worry that neither will be able to get into a groove at the plate. - Krusty Feb 10, 06:55
    - yeah, I am not sure you are gonna get 100 games of him at this point. -- nm - groiny Feb 10, 06:53 1
      - And Bird is an unproven rookie coming off a major injury. Let's not assume he will earn 150 starts - Will Hunting, King of Astronauts Feb 10, 06:58
