Re: Wright is gone

Now that you've mention it, yes, I have enjoyed watching the likes of Khalil Greene, Jason Bay and Oliver Perez hone their skills the last few years while playing here... the simple toned-down AAA game, or any minor league game is one that can only be truly appreciated by a genuine baseball fan, unlike the spoiled-rotten yankee fan who gets to watch the most talented players in the world give uninspired and over-payed (and frankly, insulting) efforts in front of the richest yuppies in NY.

But, anyway, as for Steve Trout...er.. Jaret Wright, I guess we'll see what the next physical shows.

Steve Trout Rules, don't make fun of the 84 Cub Legand!!! He did break down though after that. Still loved him in 84.

Re: Wright is gone

Matt Clement would get eaten alive by the NY media and fans. He is weak as hell. He has great stuff but I can recall many times with the Cubs where he gives up a couple of hits, and he gets flustered . He slows his pace and gets wild. It doesnt look like they need him now, but he wouldnt fit there. My 2c.
