  1. MLB Network had video from YES and it looked ugly. He was reaching up for a fly ball and got off balance. When his right foot hit the ground, the knee buckled and he went down. He was writhing in pain and then got carried to the golf cart they hauled him off on. I'll be surprised if he's not out for a while with some sort of surgery based on how awkwardly he went down.
  2. You won't be able to either after we find you! :twisted:
  3. The only thing more painful than him doing a game at all is when he and Buck are tonguing the Cardinals junk when they do one of their games together.
  4. Especially with a quality arm throwing home. He's just so damn fast!
  5. I don't think he's a long term solution to anything really, but how many of these guys that have ended up as busts put together consistently good late inning at bats like LaHair has been? The AB against Motte where he fouled off 6 straight pitches gives me hope that his approach has advanced enough that even when the peripherals normalize a bit, he'll still be reasonably productive. And by reasonably productive, I'm talking .850ish OPS.
  6. Yeah, I had a 90% labral tear and while I certainly didn't have Dr. Andrews doing the surgery, I had a really good doc and my shoulder is screwed and has been for 15 years. You lose so much flexibility because of the way they have to put everything back together that it's really pretty tough to regain the velocity you had pre-surgery. Sucks for them that they gave up the bat they did to get him. That may end up being a complete swindle by the Mariners, not that they did anything shady.
  7. This was made all the sweeter by my neighbor the Cards fan texting me after the Holliday homer to talk trash. Still haven't heard anything from him after the game winner. Also, that Geo/LaHair thing looks like some kind of baseball porn. It's awesome and really weird at the same time.
  8. Didn't that story come out like three years ago? He lives in Appalachia and got hit in the head with a gun. Cut the guy some slack!
  9. Yes. Hint: He is also known for kicking a football.
  10. Apparently not: http://news.yahoo.com/apnewsbreak-might-no-written-decision-braun-231848407--mlb.html;_ylt=AkNLEpa_CzVm5hBbGnku_jus0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTQ2dHVvNWgzBG1pdANTZWN0aW9uTGlzdCBGUCBTcG9ydHMEcGtnAzYyODMyZDUxLThlNzItMzY5OS04MzVhLTgwYWJlYTE5NzFhNQRwb3MDNARzZWMDTWVkaWFTZWN0aW9uTGlzdAR2ZXIDZWJjY2Y1ZDAtOGRjNC0xMWUxLWFlN2ItYWFiMzEyNmEzYTJj;_ylg=X3oDMTFrM25vcXFyBGludGwDdXMEbGFuZwNlbi11cwRwc3RhaWQDBHBzdGNhdAMEcHQDc2VjdGlvbnMEdGVzdAM-;_ylv=3
  11. Um, no. I don't want to hear these pukes if they win the cup. I get to throw the fact they've never won it in their face when they get too uppity about the Cards.
  12. Lies! A 12-pitch LaHair walk is a rare thing. It's like spotting the Loch Ness Monster with a winning lottery ticket in its mouth as you get struck by lightning. Savor it! I live amongst their fans, trust me, it won't be a problem. I get to talk a little trash tomorrow.
  13. I had the years confused before I looked it up and saw it was his 2nd year in the bigs.
  14. Wow, I'm not going to be surprised or disappointed when you get a vacation. For what? Calling Soto fat? More the constant belligerent idiocy and name calling. And Yeti, pass that ish over here!

  16. From when he tested positive for it. oh [expletive], i missed that, when was that? Spring training a couple years ago I think. IIRC, it was before one of his good years. Found it. At the WBC in 2009. http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/news/story?id=4287155
  17. From when he tested positive for it.
  18. Who do you put there then? Super hack away at everything Reed Johnson?
  19. I'm pretty sure part of his brain got left on the ice.
  20. Whenever someone says this, I forget it's a shortened season and I think "hey that's not really that great." What would a 50 win season this year be equal to? A 60 win season? 62
  21. Any thoughts on the crap lineup he threw out there on Sunday against the Cards? I was fairly disappointed (I went to the game) to see DeWitt, Baker, Johnson, and Mather all in the lineup against a righty with an off day the next day. Not to mention the fact that Maholm got the start, so I figured I was in for a crapfest anyway.
  22. Man, I live about 20 miles NE of downtown STL and it's just pouring right now at my house. Looks like this is the last of it though. Should be able to get started by 2:00 I would think.
  23. Sounds like first pitch will be in about an hour.
  24. Not sure, but a lot of 2 gamers would sure make it better!
