no home run, booooooo
-
get some hits you losers
-
Man, who was knocking that? I'd much rather have Miguel than Aramis. i would too, but cabrera is too fat to be a 3B.
-
yeah that was part of a two-week spree of blow home run calls that led to instant replay being instituted.
-
koyie hill triple followed by carlos sliva double would not have been my predicted outcome for their ABs.
-
wtf?!?!?
-
chris johnson? tommy manzella? this lineup is a who's who of scrubs i've never heard of.
-
IDK but gameday has him throwing 96, is that right? yeah he has a pretty big arm, probably shaky command to have not done much in the big leagues through age 26.
-
that one probably lands on waveland yesterday.
-
now that is a bad lineup. pedro feliz in the 3-hole? lol.
-
i'm fairly certain that gaub could be a solid contributor in the bullpen right now, though he will walk some people, and that will get lou's panties in a bunch. but his minor league stats: 131.0 IP, 84 H, 8 HR, 68 BB, 184 K - suggest a guy who has big league stuff. you don't pile up a .186 BAA and 12.64 K/9IP on luck and guile. parker and stevens are pretty similar too, both RHP with some control issues, but pretty tough to hit and strong K rates. stevens has fairly neutral splits against RH/LH batters whereas parker has been more dominant against same-side hitters.

237 million pounds in debt? holy crap.
-
yeah i saw that during the game and was thinking to myself, what the hell??? so weird. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPNdsGf5n5Y welcome to my world. he skates well and has the tools to be a good defenseman, but makes so many dumb plays and has no positional awareness. i'm glad he's gone.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 4-15-10

i read somewhere that his wrist is banged up, and all he can do is play outfield right now (can't hit) -
very exciting play, much more wide open and free-flowing than i would normally expect from an nhl overtime. montreal has outplayed washington so far in this overtime.
-
the bruins outshot the sabres 24-8 in the 2nd period. if i remember correctly, neither the flyers nor the devils had 24 shots in the entire game last night.
-
go sixers
-
going to be quite taxing carrying 7- and 8-man pitching staffs.

Minor League Discussion & Boxes 4-15-10
TruffleShuffle replied to Outshined_One's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
the minor league box scores are effed up again... not showing up on the website. alberto cabrera is having another good game for daytona, 7 K's in 6 IP and no runs allowed. -
Sorry. I don't want this organization wasting time with guys who weren't even good at pitching in college. hate to break it to you, a lot of our minor leaguers weren't that good at pitching in college. and samardzija wasn't really a bad college pitcher. if we have room for j.r. mathes, brian schlitter and mike parisi on iowa's roster then we certainly have room for samardzija.
-
the offense pretty much sucked balls until they got to come home and face one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball.
-
too high
-
Hill is the only bench bat left I believe so Tracy is the best option. i don't necessarily agree with that
-
i feel like most of the guys in the dugout have a better chance at getting a hit than tracy, and that includes the pitchers and coaches.
-
So will I, but we shouldn't have to settle. This game was very winnable. yesterday's game was very loseable
