Yeah, that's a pretty big signing. Talk about 2 fast guys at the top of the lineup now.

I was wondering how much he took pitches since thats what they want from their hitters. Then I see he led the al in walks. boy did that make me happier about that signing. Walks. bunt hits, infield hits and steals M's are looking right their making progress this offseason. Now they just need to get lackey or bay in my opinion, belter would'nt be bad either if he wanted to come back, and figgins goes to second.

You think that's bad? Silva is pretty trashy, and if Milton can play like he did in 08, he'll be a solid addition.

No, it's good, but Bradley is known for having a bad temper and causing problems. If he behaves himself, it's a steal for the M's.

Bradley will most likely be a distraction sometimes, but he should help more then hurt. Really solid moves this offseason.

I definitely agree. Plus let's get real, Silva is usesless. I'd rather have a controversial player then having him on the mound. The last two years, I literally didn't pay attention to Ms games when he was pitching because we lost like 75% of the time.

At least this opens the door to maybe Morrow to get a full time starting job?

so much for morrow starting for the m's, looks like hes getting traded to toronto. I'm suprised they are already giving up on him and not getting much back in return.
