[mikeford]

kid has huge holes in his swing. wait till pitchers actually figure this out.

I hope he turns out to do well this season..for the sake of my fantasy team.

i was referencing my drop of howard to pick up graff in our fantasy baseball group. if i had thought even a split second about the move beforehand, i wouldnt have done it.

Umm why drop him? You could probably get some serious players for him.

he's got a lot of flaws, but all the raw potential you could ask for

i think he will be kinda like mo vaughn, have a couple of solid seasons, get a huge contract from the mets, and that get too fat and retire quietly, haha
anyway, i think he will be good, but i wouldnt make too much of his spring, he was hot and he was hitting against a lot of guys who are minor league quality. Yeah he hit a lot of homers last year in limited action but this is his first full season in the spotlight. He'll probably hit 30-35 homers, but i can see his batting average being mediocre and i think he will have a lot of strikeouts.

there is an awesome article on espn.com about him.


he's good enough for the phillies to fuck up and end up losing

that pretty much says everything
