    The article up on mlb.com says that Joe Gordon was the only one elected from two separate committees.

    Falcons lose, opening the door for the Cowboys to grab a wild card lead.

    Glavine is probably done. Smoltz plans to pitch next year.

    I just find it hard to believe that Kevin Towers would prefer Olson to Pie... we know that Towers has tried to get Pie from Hendry multiple times in the past. We know that SD needs a CF with huge range very badly. Something tells me that if he's willing to let Pie head to Baltimore, they're sending more than Olson back in exchange.

    He's a fallback option if we can't get Dunn, Abreu, Ibanez, or Bradley.

    I wasn't gonna say anything... but yeah, you are. Thanks for the support. I got your back.

    He's renting a room at Moonlite Ranch. Something tells me my father would enjoy staying out there a lot more than my mother would.

    Hey Bruce, where are you staying at out in Vegas? My parents are gonna be out there and were wondering where to go if they wanted to catch a few marginal big-leaguers trying to sell themselves to the GMs.

    I haven't , but I've heard it is good. Plus, it has Santo on the cover IIRC, and that's pretty badass. Yeah, I was walking through Borders tonight and saw him on the cover of the book. Decided to pick it up. I'll let you know how it is.
  20. Rob
    OMC, have you picked up Rob Neyer's Big Book of Baseball Legends yet? It seems the sort of thing that's right up your alley.

    The only thing he did that had me really roll my eyes was the Soriano quip. I still don't get why people think he's a terrible defender at a position manned by the likes of Adam Dunn, Manny Ramirez, Raul Ibanez, and Pat Burrell.
  22. Rob
    Mine is pretty vanilla. Just the nine loudest idiots.
  23. Rob
    Yeah. It's in your user control panel. You want to set him as a "foe." Most everybody else already has. I agree that in no way should we be looking at Dunn, Abreu, or Ibanez... but I'd avoid Winn as well. I'd be just fine going into next season with Pie in CF and Fukudome in RF... with a healthy dose of Reed Johnson for either when there's a lefty on the mound.

    Just to pick a fight... park-adjustments aren't specific enough to be of great use when you've got players on the extremes in flyball or groundball tendencies. It doesn't matter much if Juan Pierre is playing in Coors or Petco... but it sure as hell makes a difference for a guy like Khalil Greene. That's a broad generalization of what park factors are and how they work. Specific park factors - like the BB-Ref park factors - sure, you can say that. But we have component park factors and batted ball park factors available to us if we want them. I was under the impression EqA is calculated with broad park factors, and no regard to specific BB data.

    I'm not Kyle, but I disagree with that statement as worded. I really wish people would learn the word "dominant." Life would be so much easier...
