    good's a strong word, but I had to go with it because it's not "bad" and I'm a little more than indifferent

    the gap between "hot" and "would hit it" is very wide for some of us and depends greatly on how much we've had to drink And how long it has been since the last "hit" I'm a married man...I only get it when she's in the mood. 9 days for me

    pardon me for skimming this thread, but was Soto sent back down?
  4. Ding Dong Johnson
    he's 39 and didn't play for 2 months because of a hamstring injury -- no thanks
  5. Ding Dong Johnson
    all I know is that it was the most excruciating pain I have ever been through in my life, and I wasn't able to start ANY exercises until approximately 4 months after the operation Prior very well may be better off than me because I had laxity in addition to a completely torn labrum, but my Dr warned me in advance that the recovery would be quite similar for either injury (just so happened I had both)

    I hate having players do the lineups, but it beats listening to Buck/McCarver/Vasgersian/Grace/Stockton/Girardi for a few minutes Dempster doing Harry Caray almost made my ears bleed

    I'm speaking from experience What sort of experience? I had the same surgery

    why would I show my mom pictures of someone who's not hot?
  10. Ding Dong Johnson
    i'll bet they got confused and sent Gallagher back down

    I'll give Dontrelle credit for 1 thing -- he hits better than our catchers
  12. Ding Dong Johnson
    and i'll take that times infinity plus 1

    Fred's numbers go through the end of 2006. it's entirely possible that he didn't give the Cardinals credit for any of their wins in the past decade or so
  14. Ding Dong Johnson
    Probably that trading Pie for Willis is a horrible idea? yes, but it went beyond that -- it was almost deep
  15. Ding Dong Johnson
    No competitive throwing doesn't mean he won't be able to do any rehabilitation, it just means not pitching in an actual game. And it seems to me that pitchers who have shoulder surgery aren't usually out longer than a year; that's even longer than pitchers recovering from TJS. he'll likely not throw a ball at all for 6-7 months after the surgery, and that will be 20-30 feet and very softly. it will probably take another 3 months beyond that to get up enough strength in his shoulder to throw hard enough to be confused with a baseball player. after that 9-10 months, he's looking at either extended spring training or a tour of the minors, racking up 4-6 rehab starts. 1 year isn't out of the question and almost should be expected the rehab he'll do up to that point is mostly basic range of motion exercises

    Dontrelle is good but vastly overrated -- we'd get absolutely fleeced in any deal for him I had one of those rare really good points to make, but it seems as though I've forgotten what it was already
  17. Ding Dong Johnson
    what exactly is Ryan Church without the walks?
  18. Ding Dong Johnson
    butt vomit?
  19. Ding Dong Johnson
    2 of them gotta go, jury's still out on what Soto can do at this level
  20. Ding Dong Johnson
    exactly, acquiring a 39 year old with a recent hamstring injury is not a good move
  21. Ding Dong Johnson
    shouldn't be too shocking considering the insane amount of terrible teams the Cubs have fielded over the last 30 years
  22. Ding Dong Johnson
    60 day DL Wasn't that just a roster space move for their recent trade?...retroactive to when he went on the DL when could he come off the 60? He hasn't played since april 29 so he's already been on the DL for more than 60 days, unless he's had a setback the Royals Web page said he'd be ready this week.... I'll be damned, looks like he'll be activated today
  23. Ding Dong Johnson
    60 day DL
  24. Ding Dong Johnson
    no bats or starting pitchers in that group
  25. Ding Dong Johnson
    I'm not buying it
