  1. As a Phil Hughes owner all I can say is...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I don't think this spells the end for Hughes' stay in the rotation. I think they're gonna end up with Clemens, Pettitte, Wang, Mussina, and Hughes. It's not like any other pitcher in the rotation is forcing the issue.
  2. Pretty much. They're a better team when they don't cave in to TLR's veteran fetish.
  3. To get Jacque out of center after that beaning on the leg, it looks like.
  4. at what? it was a strike. On 3-1, you look for your pitch... not just any strike.
  5. Why are you swinging at that on a 3-1 when it's obvious Hill has lost any semblance of control?
  6. Hill's control is degrading fast.
  7. Looks like the Clemens thing is official. http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/50607ClemensScoreboard.JPG http://users.erols.com/kcoblenz/50607Clemens1.JPG
  8. This lineup is pathetic. Even if Murt and Floyd are unavailable, there are better ways to fill out the lineup card for today. If we move Theriot back to SS and DeRosa back to 2B, we can add an outfielder in place of Izturis. Pie would be an immediate upgrade or we could even slide Daryle Ward into RF and get him a start. Izturis should never be in the game unless he's a 9th inning defensive replacement.
  9. He probably just does it in the good ole Earl Weaver fashion. When it looks like one of your guys is going to argue and get tossed, do it for him so that he can stay in the game.
  10. I know it's Bobby Cox... the only question is the #. 127? A winner is you! Sweet. I knew he was within five from when I watched the Braves a few days ago.
  11. I know it's Bobby Cox... the only question is the #. 127?
  12. Ok... there has been a real flurry of movement across the league the last few days... and I was right in the thick of it. This is my team as it stands now. C - Ramon Hernandez 1B - Albert Pujols 2B - BJ Upton 3B - Alex Rodriguez SS - Jhonny Peralta LF - Adam Dunn CF - Carlos Beltran RF - Billy Butler UTIL - Travis Hafner SP - Rich Hill SP - Matt Cain SP - Cole Hamels P - Chien-Ming Wang P - Tim Lincecum RP - J.J. Putz Bench - Felix Hernandez Bench - Roger Clemens DL - Phil Hughes I'm really not sure if my team is better or not, but I do know that my prospects for next year are fantastic. Everybody gets four keepers, and I sincerely doubt anybody tops Pujols, ARod, Beltran, and Hafner.
  13. The fact of the matter is that if you are smarter than the rest of the people in your league, you will get railroaded by everybody simply because they will all have some of their best weeks of the season against you.
  14. Drop it, fellas. Some of us needed a miracle to win our fantasy league matchup this week. :cry:
  15. What does ERA+ mean? You managed to make it past 1700 posts without figuring it out... on this board? We must be losing our touch.
  16. C'mon man. The Cubs fan in you should honor the superstition of others.
  17. I can't recall off the top of my head... were you one of the people gloating about Prior and Wood? Cause that might have a direct bearing on how I respond to you on this subject.
  18. Keep it quiet. I've got him on the fantasy team.
  19. I'd bet the Yankees are paying far more per win right now than are the Cubs. Well that's why I said the Yankees are going to turn it around. But it turns out I'm still wrong, we have very little chance of breaking any records. Oh well, I guess this season is destined to be mediocre in every sense. Still doesn't rule out a wildcard, though... The divison race has been decided? Yup. It's the Pirates' to lose.
  20. Why would you even want to watch the White Sox? :? I watch every single baseball game I can get. I even taped the Cards - Astros game and I'll watch it later.
  21. They would have been better served to turn Freddy Garcia into the batboy than to turn Myers into the closer.
  22. Perhaps nothing is funnier than somebody who doesn't realize they are reading something from the Onion. Oh, and I hate Fox baseball. I saw the white sox were playing and tried every conceivable channel they might be on... then remembered Fox after wasting 5 minutes of my time.
