  1. Now would be a great time to wait on good pitches to hit.
  2. I'd much rather be seeing pink elephants than pink bunnies. More than pink Playboy bunnies? The more pink elephants I see, the more every girl I see starts to look like a playboy bunny.

  4. Sure they would. We were offensive to plenty of the senses.
  5. We still had Ward there... probably should have brought him in and then subbed Izzy in on defense this inning.
  6. 3-1 count, let's see what Floyd can do with it... Draws the walk. Bases juiced for Cedeno with 2 down.
  7. http://www.fangraphs.com/livewins.aspx?gameid=270408108
  8. 2-2 count, let's see what Barrett can do with it... Fair ball! One more in!
  9. Full count, let's see what Aramis can do with it... Draws the walk!
  10. Come on Aramis... don't swing at that crap.
  11. 2-2 count, let's see what he can do with it... Double off the wall! Soriano and Theriot in!
  12. Please tell me you were being sarcastic.
  13. Well I'm glad I woke up early so I could drive back here and watch the game. :roll:
  14. I'm so glad we decided to go with Miller instead of Guzman.
  15. You still have until midnight Pacific time tonight to drop him like a hot potato. :D I have faith in his lack of real skills and abilities.
  16. ditto more small words that nobody can read i can read them. but anyway, don't want to start a big thing with the small-ballers who see depodesta's firing in LA as a chink in the sabr-armor. Oh I'm sure Depodesta's VORGM was quite high. Unfortunately, in the real world, we also judge by results, which DePodesta lacked. Way to categorize anyone who thought DePodesta was bad, too. "Small-ballers." Good one. (For the record, I think Colletti is even worse than DePodesta, and is quickly cementing himself as one of the worst GM's in baseball) Ok, let's look at results. He got Brad Penny and Hee Seop Choi for Guilermo Mota, Juan Encarnacion, and Paul LoDuca. Brad Penny has been great when healthy, and Choi provided plenty of value when he was in. None of the others provided that much value while they were in Florida. Advantage: DePodesta He picked up Steve Finley in 2004 for what's turned out to be nothing. Finley homered on the last day of the year to win the division title for the Dodgers. Huge Advantage: DePodesta He signed JD Drew, Jeff Kent, and Derrek Lowe... he got very good production from all of them. All three contracts turned out to be reasonable. He didn't sign Adrian Beltre after his monster year... avoiding his subpar production with a massive contract. I think it's fairly obvious that the Dodgers main pieces were heading in the right direction.
  17. Liar! There are no Devil Rays fans! Jenn Sterger. http://images.draysbay.com/images/admin/n5001050_32647148_6542_2_.jpg She's the one on the far right.
