  1. he used to work for Oakland?
  2. I'm surprised there were no comments on this previously. they showed them doing it during the telecast last night
  3. I don't see a lot of negativity, but I do think he's being underrated here a bit. he may not light the league on fire with 20-10 numbers his first year, but I think he'll come pretty close. I personally don't think either Rose or Beasley would be a bad pick for the Bulls, and I can understand why both sides want each player. I think Rose is an overall better fit if they can move Hinrich.
  4. wow, I just read an entire Dayn Perry article
  5. I'm still trying to wrap my brain around it
  6. The only reasons that I can think of as to why any of these players doesn't make the HOF on the first ballot are: Bonds - Steroids Clemens -Steroids Sosa - speculation of steroids Johnson - short of 300 wins Piazza - poor defense Biggio, Maddux, Martinez, Glavine, Smoltz are all cinch 1st ballot HOF. The numbers would make all 10 of them 1st ballot HOF. Johnson - 4653 K's (soon to be #2 all-time) Piazza - arguably the greatest offensive catcher in the history of the game
  7. So LLF got the single thing wrong, but puppy dogs right...hes batting .500! He may be batting .500, but what in the world is folks music? you misread -- he folks music
  8. After he clears waivers because teams like Cincinnati decided they changed their mind? Sure, seems greatly reasonable... if they work out a trade with the Rays, he's not exposed to waivers by being sent down. he's only put on waivers if they offer him back to the Rays No... He'd have to first clear waivers and make it back to the Rays before you can work out a trade with them. The other teams get a shot at keeping the player with Rule 5 restrictions first. methinks you don't understand the process

  10. some have theorized (and I have yet to see it disproven) that it was actually Geo in a Jim Edmonds suit who made that catch last night
  11. I posted this in the Josh Hamilton thread (of all strange places), but it's fun to look at all over. Geo's home/road splits: home: 291/412/582/995 road: 348/434/652/1.086
  12. fyi, Geo's splits are sexier home: 291/412/582/995 road: 348/434/652/1.086
  13. the ballpark helps... home: 385/417/736/1.154 road: 253/320/473/793
  14. How old is that in Venezuelan years? it means something different in Venezuela
  15. as if the Padres weren't suffering enough... http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3404021
  16. I like Grant, Vasgersian has always given me the heebie jeebies for some reason
  17. I don't check rotoworld on a daily basis, but I see those comments regarding all teams
  18. What do you mean why isn't he considered? It looks as though McCann is leading the All-Star votes and his numbers aren't as good as Soto's although there are very good. Brian McCann is a known commodity. Geo's a lowly rookie that most "fans" don't know anything about. it'll be a crime if he keeps up this production and is not selected as a reserve.
  19. I don't mind Grace in the booth. Josh Lewin, THOM, the Mariners crew, the Brewers crew, Matt Vasgersian, and Ron Darling drive me nuts amongst others.
  20. WGN is terrible. they need to supply me with a game in HD and fix their hideous graphics. AND STOP SHRINKING THE PICTURE TO DISPLAY MORE HIDEOUS GRAPHICS AT THE BOTTOM
  21. I find it hard to listen to the opposing team broadcast. there are so many duos out there that are brutally awful
  22. I got bored and started reading the DePodesta entry on wikipedia and this made me giggle a lot
