  1. he tells them "see these? these are birds on bats. throw the ball three inches off the corners and they'll be called strikes. now go have a career year." Bitter? admitting? That posts like that make no sense? That blaming the officials or luck or God for another team winning is kinda sad. Yeah, pretty much. Just for the record though they are called umpires in baseball. :)
  2. I think a pretty good arguement could be made that he is not one of the top ten players in the game.
  3. Aram as a Cub is a better hitter than Miggy. Aram has been a 900 ops hitter the last 2 years Miggy has never done it.
  4. Maybe its not the hat - maybe his head is crooked :wink:
  5. He claims he has no privacy in Boston. I don't have a problem with your scenario Vance - I think the Sox are under no obligation to trade Manny and when given that choice he will play ( and hit well ) rather than give up his 20 million.
  6. Maybe I'm just missing something but what is Manny's beef with the Red Sox?
  7. Odd is right - they overpay Furcal by $$$$ and can't cough up 50 grand for Bako. Weird.
  8. I was just on another message board where they were advocating trading Aram for Miggy. Someone told me I was dumb when I posted that Aram was a better hitter. :roll: That's actually an interesting trade idea. I don't know if it makes sense for the Cubs but the player exchange is interesting. Don't think the birds need a 3b but maybe a dh.

  10. Plus he'd probably give steriods to everyone in the clubhouse disguised as cheese dip or something :wink:
  11. I kind of thought the phrases were somewhat interchangeable until this year and now people are calling it an attack on Christmas to use the word holiday. I think there are alot bigger problems in the world.
  12. how is that possible? according you your rants all summer, he isn't worth anything. how does one get fleeced when trading something that has no value? See where Hendry screwed up here is that he must have released those tapes to the media of Patterson striking out every other at bat last year. Makes it look like we have to get rid of him :wink:
  13. I think free agency has only been around for 30 years or so - how do you account for the 60 years before that?
  14. Man I remember the first time Santo saw King last year ( at least I think it was the first time - who knows with Ronnie ) but he went on and on about how fat King had gotten. Even made some donut jokes - I believe he was on with Mazur at the time, I don't think Pat would have let it go as far as Andy did :lol:
  15. The Jeniuses on espn thought the Yankees would just go with Crosby in cf and have Bernie DH. Don't know if Patterson is too much of an upgrade over Crosby and I don't know of anything they would have to trade us.
  16. There goes Jose again - changing lives - his dfa has brought so much joy to the world!
  17. Excuse me gentlemen but this is supposed to be a happy thread - lets put those smiley faces back on :D :lol: :P
  18. Am I out of line to think let's just get Bradley in right and keep Walker at 2nd and go to spring training and see what happens?
  19. I have EI so I would always tune in to see Wicky close down - I kind of liked the Indians anyway. Something about watching him reminded me of those heady Rod Beck days in 1998 - you know a big fat sweaty guy trying to end the game because he's really thirsty for a beer 8)
  20. The man is a uniter - just in this thread we have KC and the Sunshine Band, John Lennon and Guns and Roses references! Wow!
  21. We have 10 days to trade him, otherwise he will be released. HE"S FINALLY GONE THANK YOU SWEET GOD THANK YOU. Stop the presses. Does anyone know his service time? He can accept a minor league assignment if it's less than 5 years, can't he? 6 yrs: http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/stats/player_locator_results.jsp?playerLocator=macias This means Macias can accept assignment, he was arbitration eligible. Let him. I hope he enjoys Iowa and the PCL, because that's where he'll be stuck. Hendry's not dumb enough to try and remove someone off the 40 man to put Macias back on. Woa....Woa..........Woa............nobody told me the guy would be moving to the great state of Iowa if he was cut :cry:
  22. haha, one more for the road. And one for the ditch!!
  23. Very,very nice John Lennon reference :D :D
  24. I would have liked to had Wilkerson too - if he is healthy I look for him to have a good year.
  25. Oh man now I gotta change my sig :D :D :D
