Yea, sometimes the board gets the better of me.
But to be fair, I was being bitter and angry, not negative. Its completely different
Bourn's agent is Boras, he's almost certainly going to test the free agent waters at the end of 2012.
Stephen Strasburg and Bryce Harper are both Boras' clients. So I guess we can kiss them goodbye in 2013 and 2015, huh? And Jayson Werth is a Scott Boras client too. I think if the Lerners are serious, they can make a deal.
freak no. People are overrating Bourn here - it'd be like if we traded for Beltran. We have to look beyond just next year - I'm not supporting the "two years from now" idea but I'm just saying that we have to look for guys who fit short and long term.
Except we'd have him for a year and a half, versus the rest of the season like Beltran. And his contract is more than reasonable. Oh, and if you go by WAR, Bourn is a better player.
Hah
It was ridiculous to begin with. If anything, this board is filled with 'shiners. Just look at the "do you want Rizzo fired" poll.
Whats a "shiner?"
