    At the chiefs game tonight. Soler's RBI single in the first was a chopper over the 3B head. The SB was easy. Okay jump. Shocking acceleration though.

    Backloading is good. That is a little bit of an oversimplification. Backloading is not inherently good or bad. My personal preference would be to minimize backloaded contracts on a rebuilding team, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is a bad thing. Either way, it really should not be much of a factor here. No, backloading is good.

    Living in Decatur, this doubles my drive to see a ballgame. I'm not happy.

    Cedeno has an 11% walk rate this season, with a .280/.366/.432 line in 136 PA. I say we trade Castro for him.

    Rob agrees. I don't get it. Does that mean I like him too much, or not enough? I liked Ronny Cedeno. I also like Castro (though granted, I preferred Lake due to the power potential when they were at the same level and nobody knew much of anything about either). http://northsidebaseball.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=53784&p=2278239&hilit=castro+cedeno#p2278239 You know what? I'm okay with that one. Three years ago I made a post comparing a 19 year old SS to another SS with low walks, some pop potential, okay speed, and plus defensive tools he couldn't harness. Castro's hit tool is obviously much better, and has allowed him to keep his strikeout rate low despite the approach issues. There wasn't much of a sample of Castro at the higher level to point at and hope he'd outpace Cedeno on that, though. Why on earth did you remember that though?

    Lumafia is the karmic balance we receive as a result of little lord fontenot invading the minor league forum with his particular brand of aggressive and prolific ignorance. He is the hero we need.

    Gotta be Junior Lake.

    I'm starting to think Theo has a type.

    I still subscribe to the notion that there are two kinds of pitchers - those who have had tommy john surgery, and those who haven't had tommy john surgery... yet.

    His brain Benjamin Buttoned itself to the point he can't turn the computer on anymore.

    Maybe it's time to get the Braves to throw a few cartons of thick onion gravy Dempster's way.

    Actually, we know what the "hold up" is. I hear that down south they don't serve nacho cheese with breadsticks.

    What's Cesar Izturis up to?
  16. Rob
    He just seems so relaxed because of the bottle of bourbon he used to down the pills.

    I was absolutely livid when the Cubs drafted Barney. Of course, a few years later when they decided to start him at 2B instead of DeWitt and Baker, I was one of those who did not freak out. I'm generously giving myself the benefit of the doubt and calling it even.

    Quick! What's Brandon Webb doing?
  19. Rob
    if he really has an arm dick, i feel like we should have drafted him Pat Venditte has nothing on this guy.

    I didn't think mods could foe people. You're the ones responsible for keeping those who deserve to be foed from bothering the rest of us.

    According to MLB's twitter account, anyways. Meh.
