I'm skeptical about Thompson being worth much of anything to us as a regular starter, especially starting out in a spot like RF, but with the way Bernie is hitting, they might have to pursue this option

I loved Bernie. I really did. I have so many great memories of him but now every time I see him I want to puke. Somebody really should have sat him down and told him he's a old man who can't play at this level anymore. He's embarassing himself on a daily basis yet people still don't see this.

Agreed. I said this in the offseason and got blasted for it by some sunshining fans. But as usual, I'm right and they're wrong. :peace:

I laugh when I see that play too.  The sole reason being...BUBBA CROSBY IS ACTUALLY IN THE MAJOR LEAGUES.

Thanks for the reminder.

nother tripple for Thompson tonight. :-|

It makes me sick he's not on the team. He could probably even be more valuable than Bernice Williams. :furious2:

Honestly. I usually try not to be the type to have a knee jerk reaction, but he should be starting in RF everyday with Sheffield DHing. Its not even like its just the 5th OFer anymore. This kid should be the short term solution out there right now. Not because he's special, because Bernie Williams and Jorge Posada have been our DHs this year :-|

Hey, I aint calling the kid an All Star either. My comment is more an indictment on the dickheads we have on the team than it is praise for Thompson. I know he's not an every day outfielder for a real MLB team.

I think we see it the same way. Thompson's upside is Jeff Davannon. And Jeff Davannon on a good day starts on this team no questions asked.

Absolutely agree with you on that.
