Vernon Wells

[cooprules]

If we could get Vernon Wells and still keep Hall that would be unreal. A deal including Hardy would have to include other "quality" players because his value just isn't high right now IMO.

POGO - I have said it before and I will say it again. I just dont think that Bill Hall is as good as he was last year. I think he performed above his cieling. Forgive me.

[aracko]

And even if Hall played CF - I dont thnk he is even close to the defender that Vernon Wells is.

 

Its just my opinion.

Although I am not ready to advocate a Hall and others for Wells deal, I don't buy the argument that Bill Hall will be as good or better than Vernon Wells in '07. Wells isn't being talked about as a $17 million / year guy for nothing? My hunch is that Hall's arby ruling won't sniff the interest that makes in a year. This kid can flat out play, and has the gold gloves to prove it. I like Billy alot, but he is not Vernon Wells.

 

That said... you are right... it is Novemebr and the Packers and Bucks suck. Let the wishful thinking commence!

Vernon Wells and Billy hall were very very similar offensively this year, and Hall was better in 2005...

 

I think the people who are lining up to pay Wells 17 million a year are insane...and hall is every bit as good with the stick...the only difference is batting average, and wells doesnt walk, so their OBP's are very close

 

trading 3 years of hall for one year of wells would be a cubs move...do we want to be the cubs?

 

edit: and billy is a year younger than wells...

 

i'm pretty convinced that wells isnt right for this team..
