In my view, and this is my freaking blog, Adrian Cardenas is a big price to pay for a below-average pitcher for 2008. A 77 ERA+ for 2008, 106 for 2007 (100 is average), and has been horrible in the past month. But hey, let’s not jump to conclusions…I read some prescient advice on backshegoes.com:
Let’s not be too harsh. He’s only allowed 23 ER in his last 27 IP.
Say bye-bye to the rotation Adam Eaton. We now have our horse!
Screw Team USA, Team Canada is where all the action is, and where all the controversy ensues. Seems Sammy Dalembert, the Sixers super-duper center, has left Team Canada. Or was he told to leave by the coach? We report, you decide:
It is unclear whether Canadian coach Leo Rautins gave the 76ers’ starting center marching orders or whether Dalembert left on his own. But after Canada beat Korea in Athens, Greece, yesterday without Dalembert, Rautins told the media: “He’s not on the team. I’ll leave it at that.”
Rautins, who could not be reached for comment, went on to say, “Everyone who is here wants to be here and wants to be on this team.”
Whoa! Passive-aggressive much?! I half expect Rautins to come out and write a book called ‘If I threw Sammy off the team’ where he waxes poetically about how much Sammy sucks and how lazy he is and how he hates his guts. Sheesh. Who’s Canada got left? Steven Nash ain’t on the team, and Dalembert was the only NBA player left.
Gold medal time?
