    I'm all for a fire sale, but if you trade all of those guys (the only one I can understand is Zambrano), then you're guaranteed of not winning anything for at least the next 10 years. Yeah, like it took the Marlins 10 years to win another World Series. Not that the firesale helped all that much. IIRC, the only thing they got in return during the first firesale that actually helped in 2003 was DLee.

    Age? Vitters may be younger, but he's also further from the bigleagues, probably by a couple of years. I'd say age is basically a wash. It wasn't really a question; I was just being a smartass.

    Freaking Insight communications wont be selling the EI package cause they don't want to have to carry that MLB Channel. :evil: I hate the thought of going to dish after I get a job, but I'm not gonna put up with this subpar crap. I should at least have the choice of whether or not I want to throw $150 their way.

    Side note: I ordered a pizza an hour and 20 minutes ago, and it still hasn't shown up. I'm officially pissed.

    DLee!!! That was a no doubter the second it came off the bat.

    He was on my fantasy team. Of course he's doing badly.

    I've moved up to 40 with a 228 ESPN.

    Cause playing for a single run when it's a tie in the top of the 9th is a horrible idea? How do you figure? There was a study on BP about a year back about how to best leverage sac bunts. Home teams can use them to pad small leads in later innings or to break ties, but it's really a bad idea for the visiting team to use them unless they're already sporting a lead and just tacking on that 3rd or 4th run. Earl Weaver used to say "don't play for one run unless you're sure that run will win you the ballgame." While that might not have been strictly true, playing for a single run in the top of 9 isn't a good idea when we don't know if the home team is going to be able to score 2.

    DING DING DING! I could predict it too if I got multiple guesses. You gotta pick one, man.

    Classic.

    All I know is that all this sac bunt talk right now is making me sick.

    Good start. Floyd in to PH.

    sounds theraputic. . Not near so much as all the beer making its way out of my fridge now.

    Where's that sunnydoo kid that was trying to tell me Lou is a good manager?
  17. Rob
    Where'd I put my Fire Lou sig...
  18. Rob
    No! Bad! No Puns!
  19. Rob
    It might be time for the Happy Lou sig to disappear.

    Let's try giving the power of positive thought a chance, eh? Were Cub fans..We try and we get let down. Look at all the games the pen has blown this year. Its hard to be posotive about them The definition of a Cubs fan is a fan with no memory.
  21. Rob
    Wuertz!!!

    Soooo close. :cry:

    You have to. Aramis is a much better hitter than Pagan, and Jacque is available to play CF afterwards. There is no reason (stupidity aside) to not PH Aramis here.
  25. Rob
    Bring in Aramis now. NOW!
