At least we didn't stoop so low as to go down in order against Frieri.

 

[lainey12]

Here comes another game where we hit, and can't get them in.

The hits are probably tied now

You were the one that said even if every player on the roster was healthy it wouldn't matter. It's not true. Lance hasn't been healthy since 2011. I found a hole in your statement, and you went off on some red herring tangent when I did.

He's not healthy now because he hasn't been healthy since 2011. What part of that don't you understand?! You can't just look at a player who is way over the hill and so broken down that he has trouble walking on bad knees and say "well last year doesn't count because he was injured". That's the whole point!! He's not just going to magically get healthy. You can't discount poor/lost seasons at the ends of players' careers. That's why old players retire- their bodies can't handle it anymore, they can't stay healthy, and their stats suffer. Berkman is well past that point and even admitted so before the season.

Defending the signing by saying "well, if he'd only been healthy..." is just nonsense.

I said he's been largely irrelevant for the last 5 seasons and gave the stats to back it up.

 

[Bmurph]

That was the pitch Ian

I never defended the signing. I said you were wrong by saying if the team was totally healthy it wouldn't change anything.
