  1. PITCHOUT nothing doing
  2. And for crying out loud, pitch from the windup. I hate those ladies who just get up there and throw it. It's a [expletive] pitch.
  3. Nah, I've seen Fonzie's car up close -- it's definitely more of a turquoise-teal thing than anything Cubbie blue. That photo just makes it look darker than it is. It's blue.
  4. There's just something not right about that kid.
  5. Soriano would have scored on that play if he weren't such a lollygagger.
  6. The 20 feet claim is a ridiculous one, so I'll cut that in half for the purposes of this discussion. Chances are he won't be within 10 feet of the wall to catch the ball that is being hit hard toward said wall so I would rather have him turn to make a play off the wall than to try to crash into the wall to make a heroic catch and possibly give up a base or two in addition to injuring himself. You are doing yourself no favors, as an outfielder, if you get too close to the wall on a ball you can't catch.
  7. It's starting to feel weird when the Cubs win.
  8. I thought the gamecast thing was just being screwy. They've showed an awful lot of balls right in the middle of the zone.
  9. That's a pretty shameless way of plugging your birthday.
  10. I feel good about this game with the L-L-W pattern they've been on recently.
  11. He won't settle for a measly 3000. Add a couple zeros to that, buddy.
  12. What a jerk. I say screw the wedding and go to KC.
  13. It just doesn't seem like football to me with their goofy field and odd rules.
  14. Man, I hate watching Canadian football.
  15. How can you have spent so much of your life around this board without hearing of it before now?
  16. Given his struggles, maybe we need to be more realistic about what he's actually worth. I thought it was telling that SI did a short article about young MLB catchers in the wake of the Posey stuff and Mauer coming back off the DL, and nowhere was Soto mentioned. Guys like Chris Iannetta and Jonathan Lucroy were, though. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1187111/index.htm There's nothing "telling" about that at all.
  17. I assumed he was referring to himself.
  18. http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=16118007&topic_id=8879974&c_id=mlb It's around the 1:25 mark.
  19. I'd like to forget about that song. And the Dixie Chicks.
  20. I didn't see the game, and I often miss the highlights, but I decided to check on it tonight. CSN had a great angle with Geo highlighted. I don't recall ever seeing an MLB player point and laugh quite like that.
