  1. 33rd round pick after a 1.206 OPS season at Utah. Hard to leave this guy out there for the Rule V with a 332/428/539/967 line in the minors.
  2. He has a $13M club option for 2007.
  3. All-Star break, next season. :D Seriously, I think he just might be. He put up really good numbers in just over 100 games last year.
  4. If ever there was a "I know you are, but what am I" moment...
  5. Or MLB.TV. I love it. I get to watch whatever games I want to. Well, except Giants and A's games because they are blacked out locally. And the Sunday night game of the week. But other than that I get to watch anything. Whereas Mississippians and North Carolinians miss the Cubs/Reds games because they're too close to Cincinnati. You got lucky. Their blackout restrictions are completely ludicrous. then use a proxy http://www.publicproxyservers.com/
  6. He'd have it by the ASB.
  7. Any chance Von Joshua gets called up when Pie does?
  8. The Mariners and their fans will likely hate me for this, but Ichiro's crappy start has to be because I keep picking him. He's 1-13 when he's my pick.
  9. I would hope Wilson could be had for less.
  10. Buerhle = Unoriginal That was Rick Dempsey's trademark. Come up with a new idea, Mark. Maybe incorporate some jello and some ladies, then we'll talk. Otherwise, change your shoes and drive that Nissan home.
  11. Because Pierre has the scary ogre mask on in the dugout. He can't wear it when he's on base.
  12. Kerry's 2nd rehab start last season was at Nashville.
  13. usually when i try to go from 3rd to 1st...people just laugh at me and feel bad for me so they let me go back to 3rd :lol: seriously though, you have to be aware of the situation... I really don't know if you were trying to make a joke about his post, but he got it right.
  14. He'll have the last laugh. It's well-known that all lefties die at 45 from natural causes.
  15. 1) I am not discussing the 2 threads you are participating in at this moment. I am referring to the vast majority of threads you participate in. You seem to take a contrarian position more times than not. I don't believe I am the only one who has noticed. 2) Your "point" was not related to the post of mine you quoted. Big Fergie J gave McGwire props for walking away. I am not so willing to do so because his extreme drop-off in production was the catalyst. Barry is not walking away, right or wrong, because he believes he can still compete at a high level. Whether you like him or not, you have to admit that he can. Then comes you with your completely tangential coaching statement. If that isolated rant means you have a point and nobody else does, then so be it.
  16. McGwire was done. Barry is still productive. McGwire has been offered coaching jobs, but has declined, because he doesn't want to deal with the hounds. So yeah....... he COULD be in baseball, if he chose to be. He chooses not to (thus, Bonds' ego keeps him in the game, while McGwire's doesn't). Were you put on this planet to argue everything? You don't know squat about McGwire more than any of the rest of us do. How can you say with such conviction that McGwire's ego, or lack thereof, is the reason he's not in the game right now? How do you know that there possibly weren't any coaching jobs available that he deemed worthy of his presence? You don't. McGwire walked away from playing the game because he couldn't compete at this level anymore, Barry still can. Nobody said anything about coaching.
  17. McGwire was done. Barry is still productive.
  18. You can be our Eckstein. :lol: Or Macias :twisted:
  19. Hence the use of the word allegedly.
  20. And I can watch either. A 16-12 game is fun, a 1-0 game is exciting.
  21. You'll have to earn the spot, little man. I'm an OPS machine and a master with the glove!
