*sigh*
It’s really a shame that he’s so hated here. Yes i know he’s had a bad year this year but he was always such a steady player.
so I feel like I missed something, but...
where did the “Randy Winn is a classy dude” thing come from?
It’s like how the announcers, Bochy, Sabean, etc call Rowand a gamer..There’s nothing to compliment him about really so they create nice things to say
It has been arround here for a couple years at least.
He does not call attention to himself. Just goes out and leaves the best he has on the field. No excuses for bad times. Not chest beating for good time. Just classsy.
That’s it! Katie bar the door for this 79 win team is star crossed! And I am loving it.
Searching for ‘classy winn’ only gets one result from before this year.

You’re seriously putting that on Winn?

especially if he’d just dived with his asshole… be difficult to [and painful] to catch a ball like that.

well, at least the Niners did well today, right?
I turned off the game with 12 seconds to go, I figured it would be okay. Did I miss anything?
So he could have gotten an inside the parker instead of a triple?

I do like to bash Randy Winn. I’m sorry diving was not out of the question there. Typical mediocre Randy Winn
But what the fuck good would it have done?

LOOK AT THAT RANGE!!
WHY IS BOCOCK?!
by Lars The Wanderer on Sep 27, 2009 3:40 PM PDT up reply actions
look, buddy, it’s not just UZR here. Just about everybody who watches baseball thinks Winn has great range for a corner. You are literally the only one, and the only reason you think that is because he rarely dives.
Please hit better, Randy Winn.
Why are you so obsessed with diving?
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
"AT LAST I AM A PARENTS." - Buster
you really know how to watch baseball.
That guy never dives! He must be terrible.
I bet you though Carney Lansford was the best defensive 3rd baseman ever! He dived on almost every play!
Please hit better, Randy Winn.
Here we go with the twisting. And don’t talk to me about watching baseball. Your only definition is reading stat websites and then watching the games and nodding every time Randy Winn coasts over to a fly ball. Yep, UZR, GREAT range.
You are honestly the only person I’ve ever spoken to who thought Randy Winn had bad range.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
"AT LAST I AM A PARENTS." - Buster
Did I ever say bad range? No. I think he gets heinously overrated for making the solid play. Have you seen Randy Winn ever just go balls out and make a catch? I haven’t
So, you basically just want him to dive for the sake of diving? WTF?

I had to change channels to watch the Post Game Show so I can’t go back and rewatch it, but if he’d somehow managed to catch that ball, it would have been one of the most spectacular catches ever. I wouldn’t fault someone for not making that play.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
"AT LAST I AM A PARENTS." - Buster
You’re absolutely insane. That was pretty much an impossible play. Sometimes guys hit balls that can’t be caught. It happens.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
"AT LAST I AM A PARENTS." - Buster
You’re the same person who thinks Fred Lewis is awesome so I don’t know why I’m even having this argument with you.

Please hit better, Randy Winn.
Sorry man I have better things to do then remember specific dates I had arguments with Randy Winn. If I said bad I was exaggerating to make my point. Overrated is all I ever meant
Sorry, dude. It was so silly that it stuck with me. You’re kinda prone to that.
Please hit better, Randy Winn.
Yah I know I don’t think the same way as every other person on this site. I mean disagreeing with people on MCC. I must be wrong.
It doesn’t mean you are wrong. You’re wrong for reasons completely independent of that.
Please hit better, Randy Winn.
There is nothing more hilarious to me than someone making a jackass out of himself and then pretending that the only reason people are disagreeing with him is because he’s being brave and challenging the groupthink.
Matt Cain: He'll save children, but not the Dodger children.
"AT LAST I AM A PARENTS." - Buster
Arguing that Randy Winn sucks because he didn’t dive for an uncatchable ball and being a douche about it is making a jackass out of yourself.

Agreed!
And I’m gonna be so pissed when Wilson does his WWE move, too, since he already lost the season for the team.
Right
we were totally winning the World Series before that HR on Thursday.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
LOL
Well, we all figured the season was over before then, but I think that loss finally cemented the notion in the team’s/organization’s mind. They’ve certainly played like the season’s over since that night.
that’s a fair point, but that’s only because they were in denial. In that case, Wilson did us a favor because it finally got Posey in the lineup.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
True, but then again having Posey in the lineup may have solidified in the team’s mind that Bustery Posey is not a major league baseball player and might never play him again.
the Giants’ have too much invested in Buster Posey to give up on him after two bad offensive games. The only thing he can do between now and the end of the season is convince them he may need more seasoning. Even then he can change their mind by tearing things up in the Arizona Fall League.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
Yes, I blame the entire season on Wilson also. Why not. Sounds good..

So Off Topic :
How open are we to tradeing Wilson?
That’s it! Katie bar the door for this 79 win team is star crossed! And I am loving it.
I’m not open. I don’t think you can get that much for a closer. You want a prospect?
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
Look what Putz got.
That’s it! Katie bar the door for this 79 win team is star crossed! And I am loving it.
I don’t know much about the prospects. Gutierrez is a good young player, but I don’t think that’s enough return for Wilson. You also have to remember that Omar Minaya was involved with that. He’s pretty bad.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
Fielder has what 2 more years of team control? Seems rather steep to me.
That’s it! Katie bar the door for this 79 win team is star crossed! And I am loving it.
I think every team has a bunch of young arms in the minors who throw hard who they can project as future closers. They usually don’t pan out, but it’s the reason teams don’t trade much to get them. I think the best time to trade your closer is at the trade deadline, if you can find some contender who’s really having trouble in the late innings. The Phillies with Lidge would be an example. In the offseason, the Phillies would probably expect him to bounce back.
No Edgar, it's not your fault, it's the fault of the idiot that plays you
