Did he pose again?

 

Who cares? Nothing wrong with showing some personality at the plate. Lee does sort of a half hop, Burnitz tends to stand there for a second during his follow through, ARam flips his bat. No big deal, at all.

 

One time, at a bar, I was doing my A-Ram bat flip and my arm hit a tray of beers and martini's the waitress was taking to our table. They smashed all over the ground. I am a complete idiot.

ha did the waitress get mad or understand.

That's hilarious

A truthful jab on Dusty. But Stoney as always tells it like it is.

 

He seems pretty high on the Cubs, though.

 

 

Stoney should have said "HIM" everyone besides Dusty knew it. Even Walker.

1-2-3 but with some deep counts Kerry's up to 40 pitches. Let's pile on the runs.

 

40 pitches in 3 innings is exceptionally low pitch count. 13 pitches an inning is great.

 

He's on pace for a 120 pitch complete game. Although it's doubtful he gets that, I wouldn't call that high or low. Exceptionally low would be under 10 per inning, something Maddux at his best and Lieber would do. High is over 16.

 

 

 

 

Welcome back Mr. Ramirez.

 

How about Rich Harden? 81-pitch complete game yesterday.

 

Its great for Kerry...

Len makes a good point I guess, but then why isn't it applied to Corey when he was up. He was always a 3,4 hitter. Why does he have to bunt? Because he is faster?

1-2-3 inning.

 

Wood seems relaxed now that he has the run support.

 

53 pitches through 4.

I was like, "Holy S! I'm so sorry!!!"

 

And she looked at my a little bit like this:

She wanted me dead. She kept sayign to my date "Oh, geez you got soaked (She didn't really). I'm sorry." in an attempt to ruin my mojo. Luckly my girlfriend knows what a huge stud I am despite this abberation.

Oh, I don't mind it at all. If you KNOW it's gone, I don't care if you do cartwheels to first base. But ARam has been catching heat for the bat flipping lately, so I was curious if he was still doing it.

 

I know B&B were complaining about it along with him not running out a flyball. That's funny, too, because they make fun of football fans who say things like "act like you've been there before" after touchdowns.

 

Being a soccer fan, I enjoy personality and passion, and if a player crosses the line, the opposing pitcher can always throw one inside....

Sounds like she didn't get a tip. :lol: Hey I see you are from hot magma, you aren't Darth Vader by chance are you?

Corey needed to adapt to this particular team. He wasn't a disciplined enough hitter to be in the middle of the lineup.

Is that what it was, just 81 vs Texas? He's my boy.

 

I do like the Rangers, but by the 6th inning, I was really hoping to see a perfect game.

Agreed. The bat flip is not that bad. If it annoys the pitcher so much, next time he shouldn't throw one over the heart of the plate.

I wonder if those guys have a problem with Bonds or Edmonds standing and watching there homers? Everyone does it.

Yeah, but how do you expect to get Hairston and Walker in the same lineup when they play the same position? It pretty much took a slumping Corey to be demoted for it to happen. I can't lay the blame on Dusty for that one. Stone should know that though shouldn't he?

I disagree. Ramirez lingers much more than the rest. It has nothing to do with personality, unless your personality is hey look at me I'm great. I love the guy, but would like to see a little less of that stuff.

I have a problem with Edmonds doing it, but that's just because he's my sworn enemy. :twisted:
