Brackman would probably be the last guy I’d keep out of those four guys. Really not the pitcher that a lot of people think he is.

  Shall we cease evaluating prospects? I didn’t say that Brackman was without hope, just not with much of it. His prospect standing is way overhyped.
  
  But I guess it’s a lot easier to make snarky comments.

      I prefer salacious and lascivious comments.
      
      For example: Ben told me that Kat O’Brien has the snappy-nappy-dugout.

        well, i am an idiot dumbass caveman. but that’s besides the point.
        
        the point is that this is the pitcher most people think Brackman is:
        
        a guy who probably is a longshot to ever put everything together, but IF he does, has a tremendous ceiling. he will struggle to get his mechanics down, but if he can, has #1 starter potential.
        
        i think he is EXACTLY the pitcher that we think he is. i think most fans realize that potential is off the charts but that the likelihood of him reaching that potential is limited.

    please at least offer some insight as to why, I see a kid who sits 94 95 easy with 2 plus fastballs and a plus plus curve who happens to be 6 11 with a minimal amount of mileage on his arm. granted he had tj but looks to be completely healed and tj has like a 95% success rate. so please dude enlighten us as to why hes overrated……

cap space!! yay!! the only problem is that if they dont get lebron, this whole plan has really backfired and they’ve wasted 10 years of my fandom.

  The 2010 summer is huge, though. Bron, Wade, Stoudamire, Bosh, Joe Johnson, to name a few.

  With the way the knicks have been run the last few years, what’s a few more? At least the offense is fun to watch again! I think Harrington will fit in nicely, and crawford and robinson are the same player. It might be a good thing in the end.

Juan Miranda? This guy is tearing it up in Winter Ball, why not let him try and win the job in spring?

  A lot of guys start out that way and improve over time. Paul O’Neill couldn’t hit lefties at all when we traded for him, but that worked out.
