Banks Boulavard????
This is the 2nd time I’ve heard Joe Morgan say this during an ESPN broadcast of the Cubs.
I don’t remember anyone calling the baskets on top of the walls “Banks Boulavard”

by slcathena on Jun 22, 2008 8:49 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I googled it
5th or so link down somebody wrote a blog about it. Basically Joe implied that they call it Banks Boulevard because Banks hit so many HRs into the basket (and thus implying he shouldn’t have as many HRs or something) even though the basket couldn’t have accounted for more than 6 of his 512 career HRs.

Quick questions
My mexican girlfriend is about to kill Jon MIller for his Adios Pelota comment after Rami’s HR. I wonder how I could get ahold of Jon Millers boss over at ESPN?
Also, for those of you are wondering where EPat plays? He is your new left fielder for the Cleveland Indians if I have anything to say about it.
by louslovechild on Jun 22, 2008 8:54 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
EPatt doesn't have a long-term future as a left fielder.
If he can’t stick at 2B or CF he can’t hit well enough to play every day.
Of course, the Indians wouldn’t turn down help at those positions, either.

Howry will also become a class A free agent and we would still get the draft picks.

What I'm saying is...
...you trade for Sabathia, use him as a rental, let him leave in FA and pocket the draft picks. The A’s used to do this ALL the time.
by cwyers on Jun 22, 2008 9:05 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I know that
But Sabtathia is only 28 yrs old. The Cubs have $$$ to spend regardless what happens. If the A’s had cash to spend in the past, they would have resigned Haren.
by Geo4MVP on Jun 22, 2008 9:06 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
They traded Haren for a cash crop of prospects.
Sabathia locks you into yet another long-term deal, and at some point if you don’t stop handing those out you end up looking like the 2008 Yankees, a team with a lot of problems and nowhere to make fixes.
by cwyers on Jun 22, 2008 9:08 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Well...depends on who the Cubs give up
If the Cubs pull off a deal similar to the Mets trade for ohan and they ended up sparing their best talent, then it is possible getting Sabathia would not kill the Cubs farm.
by Geo4MVP on Jun 22, 2008 9:11 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Therefore, resigning Sabtahia would not be a problem
He would get a similar deal to Z and unlike most pitchers he is only 28. sign him to a 5 year deal and he would become a free agent by the age of 33.

He is so overrated by Sox fans
His hitting mediocre, but his defense is solid.
