    I'd do this deal. The cubs would bite??? Is he serious? If Cleveland would accept that deal and Hendry didn't pull the trigger, he should be beaten to within an inch of his life. A textbook example of an unnecessary dependent clause. SORRY!!! Given the the context of the original post, it was Cleveland proposing a trade to the cubs. If Cleveland proposed that deal and hendry didn't pull the trigger. Better? Is it really that big of a mistake for you to bring it up and attempt to make me look like an ass? It's just a message board that's talking about baseball! No, I'm sorry. I wasn't taking a shot at you. It was an attempt at humor. If Cleveland would accept that deal and Hendry didn't pull the trigger, he should be beaten to within an inch of his life. The bolded part of this sentence cannot stand alone, grammatically speaking. It is a dependent clause. What I was saying is that it did not need to be there to modify the remainder of the sentence. The remainder of the sentence makes perfectly good sense to me even without the dependent clause. "He (Hendry) should be beaten to within an inch of his life." <------- I can support this regardless of whether Hendry accepts such a trade or not. :grin:

    I'd do this deal. LOL! Who's the third player - Mickey Mantle?
  4. JeffH
    He's a RF, but Brian Giles is the guy.

    Unfortunately, thanks to Wilken and Hendry, we have almost nothing of value to trade.

    saberscouting is very, very dumb.

    Littlefield's lunch today: Chicken salad, on rye - untoasted! - with a side of potato salad and a cup of tea.

    He has Lowrie going at 7, Hosmer at 9, Hicks at 12, Kelly at 15, Melville at 18, Collier at 24 and Hewitt at 25. In the unlikely event that Collier is on the board - if Wilken doesn't take him, I will officially start a "Fire Tim Wilken" campaign.

    If they can't get a significant upgrade in the rotation, they may try to add another reliever. Heath Bell?

    Hardly. Edmonds wants to stick it to the Cardinals in the worst way. He feels slighted about being dumped, kind of like Grace did when the Cubs let him go. You're falling for the set up, dude. Did you play Doyle Lonnegan in The Sting?
  11. JeffH
    I'm too lazy to go back through and look through the entire thread - did anyone suggest the possibility of Edmonds intentionally going in the tank just to torpedo our chances? I wouldn't put it past him.

    Josh Vitters is a three time loser. He can't hit. He can't handle his position defensively. He can't stay healthy. Other than that, he's a superstar-in-waiting.
  13. JeffH
    The worst defensive outfield in MLB.
  14. JeffH
    I assume that marked the end of your friendship.

    Might want to be on the lookout for these dudes: Coming soon
  16. JeffH
    No way? All of his hits were singles. I'd say it's entirely possible they were all grounders.

    Braves are 20 games out on July 1st. John Smoltz agrees to approve a trade to the Cubs. Jim Hendry trades for Smoltz. MLB trembles with fear.
  18. JeffH
    Rosanne Barr is better looking than Rosie O'Donnell.
  19. JeffH
    Dodgers go deep in the tank. Dodgers trade Brad Penny to the Cubs.
  20. JeffH
    The Houston Rockets stink.
  21. JeffH
    I imagine Murton would tap Hendry's kneecap weakly down the third base line for an infield hit.
  22. JeffH
    Any discussion of unbreakable baseball records should begin and end with this one.

    Rather than an overreaction, it could just be Lou wanting an available fresh arm that he believes could pitch a few innings (in the event of a Dempster disaster). Even with the off day, the bullpen was used heavily in the extra-inning win.
  24. JeffH
    With Ted Lilly and Jason Marquis in the rotation, Marshall will be extremely stretched out.
