I haven't read a post in this game thread and at the risk of beating a dead horse, Harelson and DJ are just bad. Just sickening.

lol they just said "sometimes if you've got an instant run producer like rickey henderson, you've just gotta let him bat leadoff," and were comparing him to soriano. yeah i'd say that the .400 OBP or the ability to steal 80+ bases a year also made him a good candidate for the leadoff spot.

Truffle, do you know what it was that hit the Georgia Dome last night? They keep saying "severe storm" but that sounded like a freaking tornado to me.

 

probably a tornado, but it can be a severe downdraft (strong winds that get carried down from aloft with the heavy rain), in which case it's just strong winds (which would sound like a tornado). Usually when they do their tornado survey they look for certain signatures in the damage pattern, like things being blown down in a non-uniform pattern. if things are blown down in one line, that's more indicative of straight-line winds.

Cool man, thanks.

God, now they're talking about which golf announcers they like.

Are you gonna complain about the announcers the whole time?

I like McGehee. 1B-3B-C with some SS and 2B mixed in. How bad has he been in the past that he hasn't gotten a shot at a bench spot yet?

He's like Tyler Houston.

He's utility man who's average to slightly above average at most things, but doesn't do anything in particular very well. He'd make a decent 25th man, but that's about it.
