Why Not Milton Bradley?

Sure he has anger issues, and may run up the stadium and punch Palmer in the face, but I’d take that risk. He can be a backup in the field, or convert him to first base, or DH. The dude can hit. I remember watching him when he played in double A Harrisburg and hit a grand slam in the pouring down rain in the bottom of the 9th with two outs to win the game by a run. So spit on sexsons feet an get Bradley for gosh sake.

Honestly last year,

I went to a Rangers game last year and I honestly felt more fear with Milton Bradley up than Josh Hamilton. Every at bat, he hit something on a line whether it was fair or foul. Similar offensive production to Texeira, and I heard somewhere the Blue Jays might be interested but then Ricciardi flat out said they were done spending money this offseason. We’d have a shot at him.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words—"mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

i'd give him two years...

…and then trade him next off-season. The guy can fucking hit.

injury history

for a rebuilding team doesnt fit…and if he really is in line for a 3 year deal I would have to pass again.

Nobody doubts the man can hit. But he is most likely going to have to DH quite a bit, injury history is terrible (page on the Cubbie board lists all the missed time (it takes the entire page) and there is the makeup issue which I think is fading but I think surrounding him with veterans is a better chemistry play then youngsters.

I admit

it would be entertaining. We’re talking about a guy that doesn’t believe in there being an outer space or dinosaurs having ever existed. He could be the Tom Cruise of baseball. Not that Cruise believes either of those just that I think he’s a crazy motherfucker too.

actually...

aren’t the examples of crazy to which you refer from carl everett’s crazyfile? i believe that is the reason mr. everett earned the so richly deserved nickname “jurassic carl.”

He don't need no book learnin' unless it's the Good Book.
Dinosaurs? “Didn’t exist.”

Uh, come again?

“God created the sun, the stars, the heavens and the earth, and then made Adam and Eve,” Everett said last Friday, before the Red Sox lost two of three in Atlanta. “The Bible never says anything about dinosaurs. You can’t say there were dinosaurs when you never saw them. Someone actually saw Adam and Eve. No one ever saw a Tyrannosaurus rex.”

What about dinosaur bones?

“Made by man,” he says.

Darren Daulton is available

Just in case we need a bench coach. That man is the king of baseball crazy.

That

just reminded me of the guy that just died that claimed to have pitched a no-hitter(?) on LSD. I can’t remember his name though.

I can think of better ways to spend $10M/year

than on a guy who’s averaged 300AB’s a season for his entire career.

At this point in the state of the Orioles, that is.

Personal Apology

I would like to personally apologize to Mr. Bradley. It is Crazy Carl “Dinosaur” Everett that denies the existence of Dinosaurs.

I like talking to myself. So...

looks like the worst thing (besides being an angry person in general and only playing over 100 games three times in his career) is call Jeff Kent a racist. I’m no Jeff Kent apologist so even if it isn’t true I won’t hold that against you Milt.
