I like Montero, but with Norris coming up and Nieto and Killen behind him I'm not sure I'd pay a lot.Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109288910583404941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074246508221440257.post-52443478551673755612009-09-16T17:35:40.966-04:002009-09-16T17:35:40.966-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.estuartjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09709330857511429868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074246508221440257.post-61821787682173856142009-09-16T17:35:25.141-04:002009-09-16T17:35:25.141-04:00I can't say enough about how much I want Migue...I can't say enough about how much I want Miguel Montero. The "back-up" catcher is the most under utilized spot on most rosters and I think most teams would be better off with two starters each playing 3-4 games a week instead of one guy getting 5-6 starts and wasting a spot on a guy who only plays 1-2 games a week.<br /><br />Also by having Willingham as an emergency hitter it allows you to use Montero and Flores as pinc hitters on their off days.<br /><br />What would you give up to get Montero? He's about to get expensive and ARI likely won't carry he and Snyder for the next three years, but they won't have to dump him for salary relief either. I'd say the final deal would likely be Montero for Balester or Martis and a lower level position prospect like Norris (just to name a catcher).estuartjhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09709330857511429868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2074246508221440257.post-25420605194427342262009-09-16T14:10:35.965-04:002009-09-16T14:10:35.965-04:00About your discussion on injuries being discovered...About your discussion on injuries being discovered later:<br /><br />I don't think it was a coincidence that these guys had so-called "minor" injuries and played through them causing them to go on the DL: Flores (twice), Zimmermann, Dukes. I think it has to be something about the organization philosophy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
