Ramirez likes Dunn....

[waldo7239117]

HOUSTON -- Aramis Ramirez seemed to be in favor of Carlos Zambrano's idea of bringing in Adam Dunn next year, but he took the professional approach when asked a question about Dunn after Sunday's game.

"I've said it before, when you add a guy like that, who hits 40 homers every year, it wouldn't hurt," Ramirez said. "But like I say, that's not my job, and we've got a guy playing first that I don't want to disrespect. Zambrano can say whatever he wants. (Xavier) Nady has been there every day now, and he's a free agent. I don't know what they're going to do.

"Zambrano is totally correct. Having a guy like (Dunn) in your lineup is going to help."

Nady hit .256 with six home runs and 33 RBI. He may be back, but not as the starting first baseman. As for Ramirez, he finished at .241 with 25 home runs and 83 RBI in 465 at-bats after hitting under .200 the first two months. He said he was satisifed with his power numbers and only needs to be healthy.

"If I play the (number of) games I'm supposed to play, I should be (back)," he said.

I still want to know what they'd do with B-Jax if they get Dunn. Assuming he's ready around the time they say he'll be (May-June).

B-Jax plays OF. Dunn plays 1B.

Ya, but if you call B-Jax up, what do you do with Colvin then? If they trade Byrd first, I wouldn't care. But if you trade Byrd, there is a chance that B-Jax doesn't come up on time or you get no production between the time the season starts and then time Jackson comes up.

You put Colvin into the 4th OFer role where he belongs.

I got it...Colvin to 4th OF and platoon at 1st with Nady. Plays 4-5 days a week.

No... this is in the event we get Dunn. He would not be platooning with Nady at first, Dunn would be our 1B... Jesus Christ Waldo. Jesus Fucking Christ.

I don't think the Cubs will get Dunn (I don't even know if I want the Cubs to sign Dunn). That is if the Cubs fon't sign dunn. It's not the worse idea.

You're right.... you've had dumber.

I just think the Cubs need to go thw younger route and not the route where you overpay vets. Look how that has work...not good.

TBO, stop being an ignorant son of a *****. He's said he'd love to play for the Cubs. Hell, the offseason we signed Bradley, he practically begged Hendry to give him a contract.

 

[Jntg4]

I hope Hendry doesn't try to win now... and repeat the bad route we've been through for the past 100 years.
