    The potential lineup is looking strong top to bottom. We don't have the MVP potential bats of Hanley and Kemp, but there shouldn't be any easy outs.

    yep. guys who fit. Rollins is a " leadoff guy "..Kendrick is a " 5-hole bat "..and now CC can move back the top of the order, where he belongs as well.

    and if Grandal gets it together against lefties, from the right side, he'll have a chance to play a lot and make Ellis a " Kershaw only guy ". but Grandal absolutely rakes in Dodger Stadium.

    We are sight better defensively as well, again assuming Joc is in CF.

    I'm confused.

    Does that mean he's amazingly ordinary or does it mean that he leans towards the upper limit of mediocrity?

    Clearly our FO doesn't understand that because Kemp didn't get that back and he is a hell of a better middle of the order righty than Kendrick is. And please don't tell me Grandal makes up the difference.

    Idk, I would say Grandal and the two pitchers is easily a better haul then Heaney.

    i won't tell you that Grandal makes the difference..i'll tell you that Kemp being an asshat diva makes the difference..along with the money he's owed and his injury history.

    The scary thing is...

    what's the difference? win 1 game..win 0 games..either way they fall short of where they ended up the year before.

    part of why Kemp got moved was because he was being a jackass..get over it.

    btw, Neshek's retarded..with Rojas in the on deck circle not 1 pitch to Kemp shoulda been over the plate. probably why he's not a Card anymore..couple of asshats there. Lol

    Had that been the deciding game your point would have some merit.

    But it wasn't, ...and it doesn't.
