		<description>ease19-It&#039;s all no big deal. You blog here long enough and someone is bound to give you grief-there&#039;s always some mental midget who has to let people know how stupid they are. It comes with the territory. However, for every moron who thinks they have fabulous insight, but really can&#039;t tell their butt hole from a golf course, there are actually ten or fifteen that really do know what they&#039;re talking about.

For every Stinky there are always enough BubDylan&#039;s, Waynes, KC&#039;s, Jersey Gill&#039;s  (and even Chop Chop&#039;s, heh heh) and others to make up for the And Idiots.</description>

		<description>KC, I have to take issue with some of your projections.  I don&#039;t know how Francoeur&#039;s attainable numbers, despite how happy we all are with his performance this spring, are basically equal to McCann&#039;s attainable numbers.

I think if those are BMac&#039;s numbers, you need to be far more pessimistic with Frenchy.  Frankly, I think McCann is capable of putting up far better numbers than you just listed.  That would essentially be no real improvement over previous healthy years.

For Jeff, though, I&#039;d say those numbers are in the upper 75% of what we can hope for.  

I think the rest of your numbers are reasonable, perhaps trending on optimistic, as to what is attainable.</description>

		<description>yes, he&#039;s very much capable of those numbers and exceeding those numbers... that&#039;s what was so scary about the last year&#039;s numbers, not even remotely close to what he&#039;s capable of.  i just hope he has figured it all out and meets that potential that we&#039;ve seen because he&#039;ll be the key ingredient to the middle-of-the-linup production this season.  he can&#039;t crap the bed every time the bases are loaded this season.  

so where i agree those numbers are attainable and quite reasonable... i just hope he produces like we all know he can, because last year he did no such thing.  i hope we see the bounce back</description>

Amen!

Bubdylan

You can take 5% off KC&#039;s predictions, and that is where I am (except I would NEVER short McCann on his SB&#039;s!)

In all seriousness, if we get the kind of years that are expected from our players, it could be an exciting year.  Injuries are the biggest wild card.

Frenchy&#039;s season will also be pivotal.  5 runs a game with this staff will keep us in the hunt, I believe.</description>
