November 29, 200718 yr That is the funniest post I have ever seen you make. :laugh: :confused: I dont get it? This guy will put up big stats this year for the Twin's. He's going to a new team and a new start. He had good stats last season as a rookie.

November 29, 200718 yr Bond's isnt a rookie. :sssh: Are you really unclear as to what the rest of us on here might be talking about when it comes to Delmon and not only our dislike for him but , obviously, the DRays as well?
November 29, 200718 yr Are you really unclear as to what the rest of us on here might be talking about when it comes to Delmon and not only our dislike for him but , obviously, the DRays as well? Im just saying that he will be a good player for the Twin's.:madman:

November 29, 200718 yr Anyone else think this translates into: Delmon Young is a punk and a clubhouse cancer?Not exactly ... the Rays have a glut of outfielders and need starting pitching in the worst way. Garza immediately becomes Tampa's #3 starter and Bartlett is a big upgrade on Harris at shortstop, especially on the defensive side. This is the kind of deal the Rays need to make, using their strengths to shore up some weaknesses. Young is awfully young and could be a great player, but the Rays already have Crawford, Upton, Baldelli (if he ever stays healthy) and Gomes, among others, in the outfield mix

Young is awfully young and could be a great player, but the Rays already have Crawford, Upton, Baldelli (if he ever stays healthy) and Gomes, among others, in the outfield mix The only problem I would have with your argument is that this kid was the #1 draft pick and has proven that he can play. There is no one that I know of that questions his ability and how that might go. To trade that for what you describe as a DRay #3 pitcher and keeping a questionable Baldelli doesn't seem like a pure baseball move. Thus, you have to think that they're simply tired of the drama. THEN the rest of it makes sense.
November 29, 200718 yr Young is a cancer. If Joe Madden can't get along with him, nobody can. He's a symptom of a much larger problem and his exit is at least a step in the right direction. However, it is apparent that the Devil Rays ... (sorry Matt Silverman) ... I mean the Rays are not that concerned about winning as much as reducing headaches and payroll. If they did, they'd spend more time shoring up the roster and less time trying to get a new "open air" stadium that nobody will go to anyway. Thank God, I don't live in St. Pete. or Pinellas County. Those poor people are about to get fleeced. Again!
November 29, 200718 yr The nice part is that it looks like the team can sail away in it after another 100 loss season or two.

November 30, 200718 yr Good for Twins, bad for the team formerly known as Devil Rays. Yound is a great talent, if anyone can tame him.
