  1. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2124490
  2. just to be clear...Dempster might not be a good closer because he sweats too much?
  3. I agree with you there, this year's team is much more likeable to me. When they lose I'm bummed that they did, not angry that they blew another one (like last year).
  4. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2122665 Looks like another gets caught. Didn't see it posted elsewhere yet
  5. Unless this is a keeper league you might want to cancel the claim. Bonds told mlb.com today that he doesn't anticipate playing any this year. already did yesterday morning when it came out. thanks though.
  6. Mike Sweeney, Giambi(right before he went on a tear that's still going), Brandon Lyon(stashed him on DL), Nomar(stashed on DL), Polanco(see Giambi) and I've got a claim in for Bonds, will know by wednesday.
  7. Never. Besides I believe Farnsworth is a FA, a RENTAL. So I doubt Farnsy stays in Atlant beyond this season. Isn't Farns from Georgia? I think he'll happily re-sign with the Braves. I also expect him to close for them very soon if not immediately. Reitsma has been lights-out as of late. Unless the wheels fall off Farns is the setup man.
  8. Gearing up hoping Bonds will return I reckon. Either way seems like a pretty pointless trade on both ends.
  9. I've been asked to do a surprise game thread, hopefully the mojo will bring us a 'W', and Hendry can git-r-Dunn. Bear with me, it's my first thread. Onto the matchup: http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/images/gameday/mugshots/425630.jpg Brandon Webb [8-8 / 4.11] VS http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/images/gameday/mugshots/118120.jpg Greg Maddux [8-7 / 4.41] Game Time - 8/31, 1:20 PM TV - WGN, home of the greatest PBP announcer ever. GO COBS.
  10. Sounds like it was a good time, thanks for sharing the pics.
  11. Definately Macias. He's totally clutch.
  12. I went to check BDD this morning for any news on Manny, didn't find any but I found this and it cracked me up: http://bostondirtdogs.boston.com/Headline_Archives/manny-bad-sport-bdd.jpg
  13. As of right now there's no reason to expect we get him. That could change but it's wishful thinking rather than rational. ..but boy am I wishing.
  14. Tell me about it, I work all day during the deadline so I wont know until after-the-fact or unless someone tells me before I get home. Also, good luck Sunday.
  15. My feeble attempt at a 4-way: Cubs get: Manny Cubs give up: Hill, Mitre, Williams, Hollandsworth RSox get: Soriano, Burnett, Hollandsworth RSox give up: MRamirez, HRamirez, Lester Florida gets: Jerome Williams, Hanley Ramirez, Jon Lester Fla gives up: Mota, Burnett Texas gets: Mitre, Mota, Hill, TX gives up: Soriano My only question is what do the Cubs do about our rotation then? Rusch and...? Yeah, sub out Hill or Mitre with Nolasco or Pinto makes it much easier. Personally Id try to hang onto Jerome, and after him Hill. If that's possible then where do I sign?

  17. and the snow has started falling.
  18. That one I'd do in a heartbeat, especially if it's a keeper league.
  19. Pillage the farm-system for Manny if need be. He's one of the few truely elite hitters that come along once a generation.
  20. I'd probably do that trade if your not sold on Johan. He was worlds better in the second half last year and is starting to look pretty sharp again, especially last night.
  21. No kidding. It is pathetic that threads like this are started. Truely pathetic. Sammy did everything he could to appologize. He even called the man in the club house. Jesus Christ. Sosa could find a cure for cancer and people would cry that he ignored those with Aids. Yep, I've already gotten 4 calls today from morans I know that heard about this on Jim Rome or some other equally silly platform. I told them all to watch Sportscenter and hung up.
