Heilman's A D-Bag


Ha! It may be the off season but I'm still in mid-season form. According to mlbtraderumors.com:

The Diamondbacks acquired Aaron Heilman from the Cubs, according to Jon Heyman of SI.com. Jon Paul Morosi of FOX Sports says the Cubs obtained minor leaguers Scott Maine and Ryne White in return.

I'm too lazy to even pretend that I know anything about Scott Maine or Ryne White. Let's be honest, it doesn't really matter as long as Heilman is gone. Now that he's a D-Bag, he does have one chance to redeem himself by kicking Mark Schlereth's kid in the junk the first chance he gets. Don't blow it Aaron.

Ryan Theriot, Andres Blanco, Mike Fontenot, Aaron Miles, Bobby Scales & Jeff Baker Are The Answer?

Luke Adams of mlbtraderumors.com sums up why I hate Jim Hendry:

Hendry was also asked whether middle infield was a priority this winter, and replies: "Not necessarily. I'm very happy with Ryan [Theriot]." He adds that Mike Fontenot and Aaron Miles had disappointing 2009 seasons, but that he expects them to bounce back next year.

Glad to hear he's happy with Theriot, I'd hate to acquire someone who plays well defensively. Also, what would lead Hendry to believe that Fontenot and Miles would bounce back? Are we really just going to sit around and hope they get better? You know who's better than Fontenot and Miles at second? Orlando Hudson. So is Jeff Baker. Hell, so is Jake Fox. Nah, just kidding. Only an assclown would peg Jake Fox as a second baseman.
