    the former Good to hear it. Nice play by DeRosa.

    Was it just bad luck on Wood's part, or was this the kind of outing that puts him on the DL to start the year?
  3. Rob
    Ok, my cable and internet died right before the game started. How has the pitching looked?

    If Lou is really so concerned with letting Soriano run, Murton is definately the best choice. He can hit the fastball and is patient, sure... but he was also one of the league leaders in GB% last year. That makes the running game a lot safer.

    BP didn't pick us 5th-that was BA. BP picked us either 1st or second IIRC, and they love our offense overall. Yeah, they manually adjusted playing time for their team projections. They were still a bit conservative on DLee with 583 PA, but his numbers look pretty nice with 97 R, 28 HR, 87 RBI, and 18 steals.

    They're projecting that in 429 PA. Besides, in the player profile they did for him a while back, they said he'd hit more like his 75th percentile projection if he's healthy... so translate this line to his typical 650-700 PA. PA 450, R 81, HR 24, RBI 71, SB 14, AVG .302, OBP .385, SLG, .561

    he was good for a month or so one time . . . His .314/.391/.636 line over 153 games in 2000, and his .309/.385/.572 line in 141 games in 2003 are pretty darn good, especially when you factor in his plus defense. its 2007 I realize this. I was just responding to stichface implying he was never good for more than "a month or so one time"

    Brackman really needs to turn it around, or else the Royals will draft Wieters.

    I'll wait to judge that when we find out what Moore gets us in a trade. Does anyone know if Moore is going to play shortstop for Iowa this year? It's probably a lot more likely that he splits time between 1st, 3rd and corner OF. Personally, I'd like to see what he could do at 2nd base but with Patterson there it's unlikely to happen. It'd be real nice if they could find him some time at SS, but I'd settle for getting him plenty of time in the corner infield and outfield spots. It'd be real nice to have a left handed power bat that could fill in at quite a few spots.

    I still think he'd make an excellent platoon partner for Jacque in right.

    DLee is batting .500 :shock:

    Wookie related comic... http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2001/11/26 One swear word, otherwise I'd just put the comic in the post... oh well.

    Wins.

    But if you even do blow out your leg, you'll still get plenty of opportunities to come back and get paid. I don't really see it (waiting out another year) as too big of a risk. But either way, $25 MIL+ is way more than I would need in a lifetime. You may be right, but there is always the threat of significantly decreased production or a career-ending injury. For me at least, that slight chance of a catastrophy is worth sacrificing that Enzo.

    It's a delay, folks!
  17. Rob
    Before or after the attack by rabid wolverines? Before, during, and after. If there's a delay, there's a chance we see Kerry Wood throwing. They pushed him back til tomorrow supposedly because there weren't enough innings... well, Hill will get pulled if this game gets delayed more than 15 mins, I'm pretty sure. Joe Girardi laughs at your pansyosity. I think even Girardi wouldn't take unnecessary risks with a young pitcher who's shown a lot just to keep him in a spring training game.

    I'm calling it now. Mark Prior will be struck by lightning.
  20. Rob
    Giles must have pissed off the ump on the crappy call on that 2nd strike, cause that 3rd one was even further off.
  21. Rob
    I am extremely pleased overall with Prior's outing today. He's still got a lot of work to do, but those last two innings felt almost like 2003.
  22. Rob
    Freaking Maddux.
  23. Rob
    I agree. This is a huge improvement over his previous starts. A few more starts and he could be ready to pitch for the Cubs. Knock on wood, you fool! You'll jinx us!
  24. Rob
    Steeerike Three!

    Huzzah!
