**ALERT**P.Fielder HURTING**

Post by Gordon Gekko » Wed Mar 07, 2007 2:30 pm

So much for Prince Fielder's return to action.

The Brewers first baseman has been sidelined by a strained right quadriceps and was expected to return to the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants. But Fielder again felt tightness during a workout Tuesday, so he sat out the game.



Fielder hurt his quadriceps last week during the team's timed 60-yard dash. Manager Ned Yost said the athletic training staff would decide Thursday morning whether Fielder would be cleared to play in a rematch with the Giants, but don't count on it.



This is a type of injury that could linger well into the regular season and affect his play (if he plays).

I'm not afraid of strained quad's, however I also am not real interested Prince anyway and how long do you figure those sb's he put will last? Judging from the previous posts, you've seen him. He should make his dad proud and have an extra belt size than his pa before he retires.

Some kids never grow up...



Gekko just happened to forget posting the latter half of the news...



"Fielder looked good in batting practice today, but didn't play. "I'll be in there [Thursday] for sure," he said."



per Rotoworld.

Same old misinforming GG.



If Renman posted half the crap you do...he'd get slaughtered by the message board...double standard.

~Lance Renman! If Renman posted this stuff he'd believe it, which is why he'd get slaughtered. You know it's true Lance ... if you're being honest. :D

[/QUOTE]There is a big difference between adding a buck to someone's player and having a back and forth bidding war from $17-27..when you are bidding back and forth for $10 worth of salary, that is a bidding war, not trying to squeeze a buck more out of someone... was that YOUR first auction billy, your roster makes me think so....are you gecko's sidekick?



ps..i just read this on MLB.com...funny its geckos main closer and most expensive pitcher...



"2. Huston Street, RP, OAK: From Houston to New York City, this guy is a landmark ... of hype. How many other closers can blow 11 saves in one season and still be considered among the game's elite? Just make sure that you don't end up on the wrong side of the hoopla -- "SoHo," to be exact -- on draft day.

YOU WANTED HIM BAD! guess that injury didnt linger as long as you thought.... fandango - good to finally meet the gekko hater. as for fielder, i saw that you weren't going to walk away without him on your team, just like you weren't going to walk away without taking smoltz for a whole lot of money. i could just tell you were going to bid whatever it took to get BOTH those guys...which you did. it's only good business to make you pay as much as possible for your players. so if I was personally responsible for pushing the bidding on fielder from $17 to $27, you just lost $10 that you coulda spent on another #1SP



for the record, i think fielder will have a VERY good year. he might even make it up to $27 worth of value, but at least i don't have to hope for that...just to break even.



btw, you had some nice end game picks for low $. good job.

[/QUOTE]Nah, I was just surfing the boards, and I saw your post about Gekko bidding with you for Fielder.



Your comment about "why he bid you up", just sounded a lot like something who has no experience in an auction would say.



No biggie Fandango.
