  1. I made the Orlando to Daytona trip during Bike Week this year. Now THAT was quite a lot to handle for anyone.
  2. I hope he adjusts. Going from Lakeland to Daytona is quite a change.
  3. You're a little late to the party, Jerry. :wink: Steve Phillips of all people called this one. There must have been billboards.
  4. He overclocked and still gave it up for a G4.
  5. It would be much easier to find a good hitting left fielder.
  6. This time it's Guardado. That's why they traded for everyone -- they knew most of them would end up crippled before the end of the season. Link
  7. Sweet, congrats EPatt. Sorry for your luck, Mr. Fontenot.
  8. Pictures of Neifi in another team's uniforms are so cool.
  9. Wow, I can't believe what happened to this thread in the couple of hours I took to eat supper and whatnot. I am utterly shocked at some of the things I've read. I've been playing the game since I was 3. 29 years later, I still play ball whenever I get a chance, I coach, and I volunteer my services with friends and relatives of mine that are also either coaching or playing. I also most definitely consider myself to be a "stat geek". Why? It gives me an advantage. I know all of the ins and outs of the game based on my observations. I know that stats do not tell 100% of the story. However, I will rely on statistics more than my experience when it comes to every single important decision that needs to be made in a game. One of the teams I've been coaching has lost exaclty 1 game in the past 2 seasons (37-1). When I started, I had a lot of parents questioning my techniques because I abandoned things like the sac bunt, I moved the really fast kid down in the lineup because he wasn't good at getting on base, etc. Just because something's always been done a certain way doesn't make it right.
  10. Absolutely impossible. He may be traded, but there's no way he "plays with decency".
  11. What's a Neifi?
  12. No, the contract is assigned to the claiming team in a waiver deal. Really? I thought that was only if he were picked up off waivers? This was a trade. Neifi passed through waivers and was traded. Did he clear waivers? I understood it to be that Detroit actually claimed him.
  13. Don't worry, it's just because he's not good. Carry on.
  14. How can Ou still be ranked that high? They had more than just a QB.
  15. Yes, he's at 276 with 20 homers and a handful of RBI.
  16. No, the contract is assigned to the claiming team in a waiver deal.
  17. Why don't you start a thread about how somebody thinks ARod, Tejada, and Cabrera would all be great fits with the Cubs?
  18. You lost me. It's only important for the leadoff guy to get on base.
  19. Nevin is another of those 1 trick pony guys who isn't really that great at that 1 trick. He can walk.
  20. I'm holding my jubilation until after the commish formally approves this one. I'm sure he'll have a press conference within the hour.
  21. basically, yes. That's nonsense.
  22. So there's no possibility that O'Malley can be a serviceable pitcher? What's the point in not giving him a shot?
  23. Talent. When is Hill going to start showing it? *ducks*
  24. What were you saying about making up statistics? Identical WHIP, O'Malley has a slight edge with ERA, HR/9, etc. All of their non-K numbers are similar.
