    I'm glad to see that your fantasy team is more important than loyalty. How do you sleep at night? Actually I'm just holding on to Pujols for a while to make the cardinals fans easier to pillage in a trade. But I'm not about to root for him when it might make a difference in the game if he were to do well.

    Somebody should make a list of all the people Morgan says are the best or most exciting at something, and show him all the times he contradicts himself at the end of the season. "Jose Reyes is the most exciting player in the game." "Carl Crawford is the most exciting player in the game." "Barry Bonds is the most exciting player in the game."

    With the lead the Mets have, it's time for Pujols to break out for the sake of my fantasy team.

    Wow, I didn't know Encarnacion was such a vital piece of the offense. I'm so happy these guys are here to straighten me out.

    Are you kidding me? Have you seen Molina's splits? vs. RHP - .217/.264/.328/.592 vs. LHP - .213/.296/.307/.603

    I can't... I feel that I'd jinx it.

    I've got a presentation to give later at night, so I have to avoid getting drunk. Thankfully, I can still watch the game though.

    http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/C/Rocky-Cherry.shtml I don't know what to make of him, personally. He's gonna be 28 in August, and he's only got 2.2 innings above AA. He also missed almost all of 2005. On the other hand, his numbers have looked pretty darn good, save for an embarrassing 2004 season with juiced hit and homerun rates, which he seems to have fixed since he came back. I'd like to see what he could do with a roster spot. Unfortunately, we have so many relievers I feel Wayne Krivsky's wet dream right now.

    Ned Colletti : General Manager :: Dusty Baker : Manager Ah, to ponder what we could have gotten for Maddux had Hendry demanded prospects instead of Izturis. Probably not much seeing as he was not at all an "A+" pitcher, and it was only for the later half of the season. You never know; Colletti isn't a genius... I don't know... how many teams do you know that are actually in position to get better when players go down to injury?

    Why? Cheaper and much higher upside? It's not going to be cheaper unless we trade Ward. Durazo probably has a higher offensive ceiling, but his skillset ages quickly, he was beyond awful last season, and he can't do anything with the glove at all anywhere. He didn't play at the major league level last season, IIRC. Recovering from an injury. Ward's mobility hasn't impressed me much either... and his bat is looking putrid to this point. I'd honest rather pinch hit Cedeno in a crucial situation, and I think that's enough of an indictment of his abilities. Durazo has at least shown a sustained ability to hit at the major league level. If we're going to be attempting to catch lightning in a bottle with a bench player, I'd rather do it with the one that has a better chance.

    ñ=alt+0241 (on the number pad, doesn't work at the top of the keyboard) alt+164 works for me ñ ñ (0241) works too ;) Ĉħăŗąčŧęŕ Māp ƒţŵ

    Erubiel Durazo just got released due to the Walker signing. I wouldn't mind him instead of Ward.
  14. Rob
    Yeah. He and CPatt are the crown jewels of our homegrown position players.
  15. Rob
    Huzzah!

    Rob.... it's never OK to give up !! :wink: If there's one thing Fear Factor has taught me, it's that giving up is a smart thing to do sometimes.
  17. Rob
    Fred, I think you're clear to give up.
  18. Rob
    This game is starting to get pretty hard to watch.
  19. Rob
    Bob talking about how Jeff Weaver gets a lot of groundballs... completely ignoring that Weaver is actually a flyball pitcher.
  20. Rob
    No, he really doesn't. I wouldn't be surprised if I found out 80% of his limited strikeouts are of the looking variety. Ha, nice trivia question.
  21. Rob
    Nice recovery throw by Dawkins.
  22. Rob
    Hank White with the weak grounder to second.
  23. Rob
    Murton has been getting pretty big leads this spring. I like it.
  24. Rob
    I'm not gonna lie, I do like the fact that Murton might be on the bench sometimes. It's a great sign for our offense that it isn't clear-cut he should be getting every at bat in left.
  25. Rob
    I sure hope Lou doesn't put Jacque back into the #2 spot against another lefty...
