    Well, seeing as how they almost certainly know about this place, it would probably be a bad idea to state exactly how many times you're voting. They could pretty easily discount all those.

    I'm sure when you're still only making league minimum in a profession that does not have a long shelf life for employees, that first large guaranteed contract looks that much nicer. It takes you from being a potential insurance salesman in 20 years to retiring. If it were me, I wouldn't have waited a year either.

    There's a spy... $20 says it's Raisin.

    I'm willing to take my chances on A-rod with that... From what I understand, the Yankees are only on the hook for 48 over those three years, with the Rangers picking up the rest of the tab.

    playing that well where? 2nd, because DeRosa has moved into a platoon in RF / super-sub role. Na, in my dream that position is filled with The Riot posting a .375 OBP and hitting in the #2 spot. :D See, I have us trading Theriot straight up for Santana in my dream.

    What's so funny about Cherry Strawberry?

    Is Marquis going to be league average in VORP? Yes, you're on Really hard bet to measure... Do you base it on SP's who qualify based on IP? If so, Marquis is unlikely to be better than average. Do you base it on all SP's who appear for their teams at all? If that's the case, Marquis will pitch enough innings to be well above league average. If both of the extremes are too...extreme...then where do you find the appropriate cutoff? The line is drawn to where I would win or lose the bet.

    I sure hope this means Tomas Perez isn't getting a contract.

    As long as the Cubs are exceeding the salary midpoint by a good margin, I'm against a salary cap.
  11. Rob
    are you saying he'll be good? then YES i do. i'm in on that too. If I had a farm, I'd bet it on him not being anywhere near good.

    Grand Salami!

    What do you want to bet they try to keep the ball down in the zone this at bat?

    Shallow fly behind SS, not enough.

    Horrible jump by Perez, and that stutter step before the slide should have been it. He got lucky as hell there.
  16. Rob
    I'd honestly rather lose every single spring training game than watch Tomas Perez slowly play his way onto this team.
  17. Rob
    Crapcakes.
  18. Rob
    Wow. :shock:
  19. Rob
    I'm assuming Marquis had some trouble keeping the ball down today.

    Would it help if we were sending these emails through proxies? It could be that they're checking out the ISP and disqualifying votes over that... though I doubt they'd go to such effort.
  21. Rob
    You got one from me. Unfortunately, my school email is down ATM... once it gets back up though I'll try to send another.

    How can Prior have an option left? He's been up since mid 2003. Shouldn't his option years have ended last year? CPatt still had options in 2005, and he'd been up since 2000. Working from that, I'm fairly certain that if you stay up all season with the big league squad, you don't burn an option.
  24. Rob
    He was hired (at a kingly fee) to lead the Cubs to a world series victory. Hopefully he doesn't consider that a april-october job. What's done to prepare for the regular season cannot be measured until we see the impact it has on the regular season.
  25. Rob
    Looks like Cotts and Wood right now. Cotts still has 2 option years, I believe, and Wood may be getting primed for a quick DL stint with this triceps strain. I still think one or two relievers get traded before opening day. What could Eyre, Jones, and Pagan bring? If we threw in Izturis and a bit of cash, we could probably get Renteria.
