Plus Ellis is already on the 40 man so they wouldnt have to bump anyone off.

Like the guy last year who said Manny should be batting leadoff. <br /><br />Defensively, other than his usual lazy on the easy play schtick, Furcal has been very good. His problems have been hesitent but free swings. If he is worried about his back, he needs to take some of the OOZ pitches he used to crank up the middle for balls.<br /><br />As for another C, why the hell would it be for Ausmus to PH more? Ausmus has been hitting this year, but the guy has been a terrible bat his whole career. His value is in defense and clubhouse. If anything, you would want a guy like Ellis taking walks as a PH. <br /><br />Anyway, I just don't see why they aren't bringing up a guy like Hu instead or purchasing the contract of a Pascucci or Jones now that Schmidt is going to the 60. The bench needs some thunder.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05841246911643531451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-58319062559473866172009-05-28T22:34:22.781-07:002009-05-28T22:34:22.781-07:00Andrew Bynum is like 1/3 of Raffy's age, thoughAndrew Bynum is like 1/3 of Raffy's age, thoughSteve Saxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00930320282262607468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36360371.post-8406035357267204612009-05-28T22:29:34.809-07:002009-05-28T22:29:34.809-07:00Furcal could just be apprehensive to go all out fo...Furcal could just be apprehensive to go all out for fear of landing on the DL again. The same thing is happening to Andrew Bynum. I wouldn't be surprised if Furcal was just afraid to go out.
