  1. winning %? You should stop reading Van [expletive]. I'm glad Hendry is upgrading a weakness, I wish he wouldn't overspend to do it. And one more thing, it is an upgrade on paper only. This entire plan may well blow up in his face. Relivers not named Gagne and Wagner are a fickle lot. If that happens, then we will have a new GM to kick around.
  2. All these moves and they still haven't addressed the crator in right field. If they get Piere then they have to go after Giles or trade for Abreu.
  3. Great! So the Cubs won't get into a bidding War for Giles but will for Pierre? Unconcievable! (no reference to the Princes Bride intended)
  4. I won't be happy if that happens.
  5. The 2006 season will not exist to me if that happens. I heard the White Sox could use some more fans. Have at it! I'd much rather it was you Superfan. Then you could tell every one of them about what it takes to be a true fan. Come down off the horse already would you?
  6. Spoken like a true Cardinal fan. Give me (a healthy) Beltran and Tejada and the Cubs wipe the floor with the NL.
  7. I'll take Adam Dunn and Eric Milton please.
  8. I voted other and it's color Alabama Crimson tide, Stanford Cardinal (Their mascott is a fricken tree). Those people are supposed to be smart you'd think they could come up with a batter nickname.
  9. Rehabing a torn shoulder muscle I believe.
  10. I'm laughing on the outsdie but crying on the inside. Hendry says it is going to be via the trade route. I hope he has a blockbuster brewing on the back burner b/c the hot stove, she aint so hot.
  11. That is hilarious! Baldeli is my CFer and Harvey is in right. Caberra is in LF. I traded him for Wood in 2007. Pie is my 4th OFer. Which one is Ryan Harvey in the game? I made him because I am God in my fantasy PS2 world. And I saw to it that he was good. :sunny:
  12. No. That is who he is saving Lastings for. At one time I thought Manny to the Mets was a sure thing. Now I'm not as confident. But I still think it is a good bet.
  13. That is hilarious! Baldeli is my CFer and Harvey is in right. Caberra is in LF. I traded him for Wood in 2007. Pie is my 4th OFer.
  14. IIRC, Delgado had no interest in playing for the Mets. Delgado showed no interest in wanting to be traded this year either. Should be interesting to see how this plays off. Could he cause some problems in that clubhouse? IRRC, I think it had something to do with beying lamblasted by the NY media for not standing during the signing of that crappy God Bless America song. Omar is building a Latin oriented club that will appeal to NYs large and expanding Latin population. If he can get Manny turned around it will be all salsa all the time.
  15. Petit is going to be very good. Is the 1st baseman Brazille? Here me now and believe me later, the Las Vegas Gamblers are going to be very, very good. I think Petit's going to be one of those pitchers who have tremendous minor league numbers that becomes a 4th starter in the bigs. Control issues?
  16. I don't think Omar is stupid at all. I think he is doing a good job of being a GM of a big market team. Delgado really solidifies that line up. If they sign Wagner and get Hernandez for behind the plate they have the makings of a division challenger. They still need some more bullpen help and another starter, but they have a ton 'o dough and a new TV network. Just my two cents.
  17. Petit is going to be very good. Is the 1st baseman Brazille? Here me now and believe me later, the Las Vegas Gamblers are going to be very, very good.
  18. My question is: Who exactly is bidding for Giles services? NYY- Not according to the latest reports. Even if so, he isn't answering phone calls. StL- Not according to the latest reports SD- They gave him an offer he could refuse, and he did. ChC- Who is Giles? So who are the bidders and where is the war. Or is this a Cold War type of war. If so, I want Hendry banging his shoe at the podium in the UN saying, "If we get Giles we will burry you."
  19. Welcome to the forum. Just to let you know, I fully intedend to look smarter than I am by using words I don't understand. I will probably spell them wrong too.
  20. I wouldn't know that because I'm not smart enough to spell it corretly either. :D
  21. Who is Dayn Perry? He/she(?) is pretty smart.
  22. Before he went to NY and flopped people talked about him like they are talking about Burnett this year. Vasquez is a good pitcher. But Yankee inflation has made him not worth the contract.
  23. Why can't baseball players just come out and say it? This is ridiculous. He makes over 9 mil a year, I'm not sure Chicago is any closer to PR than Arizona, even if it is, I doubt there's any money consideration in terms of cost to visit home. I have little respect for people that can't come out and say what the mean or what they want. Why can't he just come out and say "I didn't sign with AZ, I don't like the direction the franchise is going, I don't want to play here anymore." Yea, remember when Hampton signed with the Rockies? It was for the great schools like Columbine. It wasn't for the money.
