    I really despise 2-0 ground outs on what would normally be ball 3.

    Hypocritical in your own post. You missed the point. You conveniently cut out his post, which I was quoting, to show just how dumb it is to tell people what they can't post. I didn't miss the point at all. He told you what you should or shouldn't post, and you then proceeded to tell him what he should or shouldn't post. You then followed it with a statement that basically says you hate when people tell others how they should or shouldn't post. Guilty of your own complaint. I'm tired of the Murton playing time posts, but they aren't going to go away, no matter how much anyone protests. Skip them if you are not a fan of such posts.

    It's Goony. Goony broke his old screen name with too many gibberish posts. gobbledigook flimflam jebota. Careful, we are running out of screen names. I think the only one left is Jabroni.

    I don't know how high any team's winning percentages are when they go down 3 runs in the top of the 1st and they have Jason Marquis on the mound. :? sure, for this game, but people are writing off Marquis for the length of the contract because of one bad inning I think people are writing off Marquis because of one bad career. Wow, joined up yesterday and already picking iFights in every thread you've posted in. Great job. You're a welcome addition here. He ain't new. Actually, he's older than dirt.

    Did you check the system requirements for MLB.TV on your computer? If you have an outdated version, that might be the reason for the error. I just disabled WMP as my default player and it's working fine now. hanks for the advice. Glad to hear you are up and running.

    I really despise when a pitcher hits the batter and then proceeds to make throws to 1b to keep him close.

    just did :lol: Sort of. nah, it was. Burke had a swinging strikeout. It was a foul tip strike out. So, in essence, he did make contact. :wink:
  12. BigbadB
    At least he got the first guy out. :P

    dude, whats a split? /looks confused, chews on toothpick Well, Piniella didn't use the word splits. I believe he used match ups.
  15. BigbadB
    1 pitch ground ball out to Izturis to start the game. Nice.
  16. BigbadB
    I don't know the first thing about this Sampson character. Any good?

    Jealousy is a terrible emotion. I bet if you polled the people as they walked into the gate welll over 90% would know who's playing today. I really find it hard to believe when it's printed right there on the freaking ticket. Who looks at tickets? :D

    I got it right away. If you plan on cancelling it prior to the end of the 5 day trial, make sure you keep the introduction email you receive from MLB. It has the email link to cancel it within that introduction letter.
  19. BigbadB
    Yeah, it's really a non issue to me. Floyd and Murton are both quality bats that are going to split time in the outfield. It's obviously not a true platoon. No reason for anyone to get upset about it being discussed in every game thread since there is somewhat of a platoon between two guys that will cut into one or the other's playing time. It's just going to happen.
  20. BigbadB
    I forgot to mention that Lou also said it was based on splits.
  21. BigbadB
    He talked about the fact the Brewers and Astros only have one lefty bullpen guy and that he wants an extra lefty bat in the line up.
  22. BigbadB
    It's going to happen. Lou is discussing it right now.

    The Cubs don't have any deferred contracts. They have locked in contracts for the next several years, but that's not the same as deferred. Arizona is STILL paying for guys who played on the 2001 World Series champion team and are not and have not been on the team for several years now. Randy Johnson is still receiving deferred payments from his previous stint with the D'Backs and he's back with the team again this year. Arizona is still in a financial mess from Colangelo. Yes, but he had a much smaller fanbase, far less revenue, and was starting from scratch. He did mortgage the future to get a World Series win, but I think it's most important that he actually got the championship. It wasn't just spending money -- it was spending it on the right players to win. I'd rather have Cuban because I'd love to see that kind of shakeup, but I wouldn't be upset with Colangelo. In my mind it would sure beat a big corporate owner, even though he'd need financial partners to pull it off. Mine was just in response to your question about deferred contracts. The biggest obstacle Colangelo faced was no tv deal in the first 5 years of the Diamondbacks existence, IIRC. I'm not really making a pro or con statement about Colangelo. Just pointing out the quandry that the Diamondbacks state of affairs became under his watch.

    Anyone see a pattern here?

    If Jeff Loria can own a major league baseball team, anyone should be able to own a major league baseball team.
