  • lordtyros, on 11/10/2008, -0/+2Terrence Hatcher
  • Tegurit34, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1Offensively... I dunno. But Longo does play third base like a shortstop while Braun plays only a decent corner outfield. While Braun has a power advantage, Longo will be the better on-base threat, which will create many more run scoring opportunities for his teammates.

    The masses may never realize it, but Longo is by far the better player. Toss in that he has the greatest contract in history, and it's a no-brainer.
  • Handonam, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1damnit, was hoping for the obvious
  • Tegurit34, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1Well, that kind of goes without saying, doesn't it?
  • Handonam, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1




    DarkStryke, you're doing it wrong.








  • bushout, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1It's the same exact joke. What gives, Leo?
  • Tegurit34, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1It's just small sample size, and the guy is 23 and playing for most up-and-coming team in the Majors. I have a feeling this won't be his only shot at a ring. And besides, he had an overall good postseason (although weird).
  • mjolnir, on 11/11/2008, -0/+1I thought that was cricket.
