QB BATTLE Day 2 of the great quarterback derby provided Kyle Orton with the opportunity to direct the first-team offense, and he developed a quick rapport with Brandon Lloyd, connecting with him on a variety of routes. Overall, Orton and Rex Grossman both looked solid and were sharper than they were Wednesday. Orton had one mix-up where Hunter Hillenmeyer picked him off on a ball deep down the sideline for tight end Greg Olson. Orton looked decisive and made some crisp throws. Grossman showed off his ability to be accurate with the deep ball, hitting Rashied Davis in stride for a touchdown. Grossman lost a snap with center Anthony Oakley, a recurring problem last season.

  • The One Thing: 7/22
    The One Thing that is on everyone’s mind is the trade deadline.  Today I’ll highlight my three AL players most likely to be traded. 1.  Casey Blake — The Indians have already folded the tent on 2008 and Blake turns 35 (yep) in August.  He’s already rumored to both the Mets and the Rays.  Cleveland wants to [...]

  • The One Thing: 7/21
    The One Thing we learned today is that Eric Wedge is looking for at bats for Franklin Gutierrez.  He played today instead of Choo against a righty.  With Dye out for a bit in Chicago, Wise should soak up some at bats in the short term.  If desperate for speed, think about Wise.

  • The One Thing: 7/18
    The One Thing we learned today is that Ramon Vazquez will be riding some pine.  Hank Blalock came back and played 3B after the much rumored transition to first base never materialized.  Since both Vazquez and Blalock hit left-handed, it is tough to see where Vazquez will be getting his at bats.  Vazquez had a [...]

    The One Thing we learned today is that I didn’t really provide that write-up which I promised over the All-Star Break.  Moving on, however, this is a good time to focus on what I call “10 - 40″ guys.  These are players who have a low-profile, but could muster 10 HR and 40 RBI during [...]

  • The One Thing: 7/13
    The One Thing we learned today is that Carlos Silva might not be useless during the second half.  He pitched reasonable well today (8 hits, 6 hits, 2 ER, 5 Ks, 1 BB) and sports a high 0.317 batting average on balls in play.  That number should come down somewhat during the second half.  Combine that with [...]
