Link Stories are bound to surface, but having them come from a federal magistrate makes it a little more believeable, I think.
-
You forgot to add "enough said". That way, he can't retort.

Drew and Lowe -
No, it was actually lower before he gave up the HR to Edmonds. :wink:
-
Yes he is. A good game does not erase a terrible career. My point is is that is getting a little ridiculous to see everybody freak out if he is in the starting lineup. He shouldn't be a starter, but obviously he will start some games this year. Can we stop the NSBB PMS whenever he is starting? start some games? who has the most PA's at second base this season? it ain't walker or hairston Actually, I'm pretty sure it is Walker.

Official time: 2 hours, 13 minutes.

It's not, he didn't.

Neifi to start at second tomorrow
Ding Dong Johnson replied to burnt out cubbie fan's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I think it's terrific that Neifi gets a start today. I bet he gets at least 2 hits. :wink: -
I hate Gameday -- Pitch 4 - In play, run-scoring play -- then excruciating long pause to see what actually happened.
-
Typical Cards fan. Can't you read? Vance said enough said...
-
And super old Greg Maddux.

What? I'm not umpire techniques expert, but I can't see how you are even close to right here. You never see baseball umps look around for help before they make a call. They make what they thing is the right call. Then if another ump thinks differently they talk about it. There is no hesitation, and no way would it be just a split second delay if they glance over their shoulder for help. They make the call, then deal with the problems if somebody disagrees. I'm not saying that's what happens, it's what should happen. Any umpire who is unsure of a call should not be making a call. And you do see umps look for help in making calls a few times in most games, the old "did he go" on a check swing.
-
The proper thing to do, from the umpire's standpoint, is to ask for another's opinion prior to actually making the call. A simple look over the shoulder or glance to either side should let him know if any others may have been in better position. All they need to do is point to the other ump for the call (it's only a split-second delay). However, if it's "their call" and they make it, the other ump really can't jump in and offer his opinion, unless it conflicts with something in the rule book.

Walker is the best option of the 3, according to the numbers. -
Well, here's to hoping that Marshall or Guz do well enough that it becomes a tough decision.
-
Pre-injury, he posted 134, 130, 107, 129 ERA+. That's not too terribly shabby.
-
The difference between Maddux's fly balls and Carlos's fly balls is that a much higher percentage of Maddux's end up rolling down Kenmore.
