Heath Bell said in Boston Herald:

I think if he didn’t have to be the main guy on one team, he’d be so much better than he is ... He’d hit over .300, and he’d definitely hit 35 or 40 home runs because he’d have protection. It’s amazing the things he’s done with nobody hitting around him in San Diego. He broke the (team) record for walks in one month (32 in June), and then came back and still hit. He’s never had any protection. So I think he’d be amazing for anywhere that has protection for him.

The RotoFeed :: Gary Matthews Jr. Wants Out

Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:07:44 GMT

Okay- how about Ordonez, Guillen, Bonderman, Robertson, Willis, and Inge.... all for Matthews. No? How about if we sweeten the deal and keep Inge? If the Angels let Vladamir Guerrero go via free agency Matthews could be in line for more playing time.

Thu, 15 Oct 2009 21:53:58 GMT

I am so tired of anyone who uses the "the Yankees spent 60 bazillion and bought the best record in baseball" comment. They even used it last year when they were not even in the postseason.

We embraced a bunch of young guys ... I think the future's bright in San Diego. We have great arms, great hitters, all-around good players, and everybody's going to get better and do what it takes to be a playoff team.
