shithole of a team, made me giggle.

and he actually did well for us in the post season.
not to mention that shithole of the team is the reason 2 of ur bandwagoners are rolling around here with the gayest sigs on jsp.

He lost 20 pounds.

His defense is much improved from mediocre.

He hits the most hrs and rbis in the league.

He strikes out a lot, but at least he's not grounding into double plays when he strikes out.

He's a top10 player in the league.


Not even close.
borderline top 10 1Bman.

Wait, Teix wasn't even an angel his whole career prior to the yankees?

Why do they boo him so much then...?

So if we didn't pay him that, where would we go and get 50 home runs / 140 rbi's?

let me know.


Try signing one of the several dozen good offensive first basemen, perhaps one of the several better than him, and use some of that money to get good elsewhere.

No one said he couldn't hit bombs but he doesn't have the plate discipline to back up his production. Guys will his skill-set don't age well.

We’re not only looking very far into the future, but we’re doing so with a hitting profile that historically ages awfully. Richie Sexson, Cecil Fielder, Mo Vaugn, David Ortiz, Tony Clark and others are among Ryan Howard’s most comparable hitters according to Baseball-Reference. All of them dropped off harshly in their early 30s. About the only success story in Howard’s top ten comparables in Willie McCovey.
