  1. So this is what ESPN would be like if I lived in New York/Boston.
  2. Barring scoring changes, looks like I came up just short today. 254-252.
  3. Within 8. Don't think I'm gonna get there, needed Theriot to drive in a couple that last AB.
  4. Miami beats the Knicks to clinch the 5 seed. Philly loses by 7 to Toronto to fall to .500, with 2 remaining games against the Celtics and Cavs.
  5. Extra inning Cub victory where Villanueva gets a damage-free inning.
  6. All I ask for is one little grand slam from Ryan Theriot. That is all.
  7. I have never been a bigger Ryan Theriot fan than I am right now.
  8. Good news: The Bulls win, keeping the 5 seed in play. Bad news: Everybody has to be Knicks fans tomorrow to keep the 5 seed in play.
  9. What the hell happened? All of a sudden, I'm only 25 points down with a 1-start "advantage" tomorrow.
  10. I would have been better off not using any pitchers this week.
  11. my Fantasy team, even though it will likely still finish last again this year. :)
  12. Biggio had 53 career, so Soriano has a decent chance to pass him this year.
  13. G.R.I.T. C - Jason Varitek 1B - Daric Barton 2B - Akinori Iwamura 3B - Chone Figgins SS - Jason Bartlett LF - Garret Anderson CF - Michael Bourn RF - Jeff Francoeur P - Justin Verlander P - Livan Hernandez
  14. impatience, both from fans and from Lou, specifically regarding Fukudome, Gregg, and Harden.
  15. It means nobody on BBT cares that his range is poor.
  16. Al and I are dead even right now, aside from one little pitching matchup. Z got 22 points and Lannan got -17.
  17. Cubs already well ahead of last year's pace.
  18. I'm not sure how big a fan I am of the "get them out by making them hit the ball in the air as hard as possible, just to center field" strategy.
  19. Bases clogged with grit.
  20. I think I'm more upset that they blew 3 leads of 22 runs or more.
  21. I missed the bottom of the 7th, but how did Heilman look? Why didn't Lou let him finish out the inning?
  22. ewwww. Shades of Bruiser Flint?
  23. Lannan off to a bang-up start today.
  24. Today's "I was not aware of that" number (thanks to Peter King, oddly): Kyle Orton's 2009 base salary: $995,000 Jay Cutler's 2009 base salary: $1,040,000 Difference in salary: $45,000. So, with the money not being spent on a first round pick (which I will assume would have been more than $45k), this was actually a cost-cutting deal for this year.
  25. Maybe this is a dumb question but... How can he still be on the minor league roster despite being named the starting CF'er? I only know because I asked a week ago regarding Jordan ZImmerman... A player is minor league eligible until he goes over the eligibility limit (200 PA, 10 starts, 20 pitching appearances). You can activate him earlier, but aren't forced to.
