    i don't know how you can't make a determination right now as to whether Pujols is better than Gehrig, or where A-Rod stands amongst the all-time greats. we're pretty well-aware already of what each player's true talent level is and can easily compare to other great's peaks also. the only thing yet to be determined is how long they'll sustain high levels of play, and that is more of an issue of counting stats, where there is more noise than is worth sifting through for these comparisons. that would be simply a discussion of milestones; but i don't really think any more of Biggio's career since he floundered around that extra season to reach 3,000 hits.

    why is Michael Brenly always bolded; who cares about him?
  3. sneakypower
    who thought Rich Hill would have a 2.75 ERA and be virtually assured a top 5 Cy Young finish by this point in the season?
  4. sneakypower
    it does? you must not have noticed how belligerent people were about him all offseason
  5. sneakypower
    last 15 starts 105-2/3 IP 81 H 12 walks 108 k 2.73 ERA 0.97 WHIP that's some good pitching
  6. sneakypower
    it's similar reasoning to GIDPs not producing an RBI

    well they say in the article that Pujols' elbow worries were the determining factor in him slipping out of first this year

    I've never liked Hamilton being compared to other draftees since he was always regarded as one of the top five most talented amateur players of the last decade to enter the draft. And you can take a flier on him for 50k letting him play exemplary RF defense in the late innings and PR/ maybe provide pop off the bench, whatever. Obviously he had a lot of warts, but if he never got hooked on drugs you wouldn't have any chance at getting him anyways.

    woosh

    do a search of Nolasco I guess if you've been skillful enough to avoiding reading topics with Carlos/Ricky rants you're really taking this thread in a direction that doesn't interest me much, though
  15. sneakypower
    well the harping hasn't been confined to just this thread
  16. sneakypower
    then why continually harp over a move that has proved not to ill-affect us?
  17. sneakypower
    None of it's valid. Hendry usually doesn't even need prospects worth a damn to garner something of value in a trade. So for every time he foolishly gives up Nolasco for diddly-poo in return he'll also give up table scraps to get the most dominant starter in the game or all-star corner infielders. Or are we actually upset that he doesn't win every trade by a sizeable margin? Yeah, I wish my urine tasted like champagne and women begged me to piss on them.

    then what does any of it really matter? so we could have maybe traded him instead for Coco Crisp, who looked better than Pierre at the time of the trade, only to have him flame out instead.
  19. sneakypower
    i think it's a bit of a stretch to say he's had a 'miserable' season
  20. sneakypower
    i'll say tonight he's sucking the balls into his mitt before batters have a chance to hit them
  21. sneakypower
    so you guys think Juan Pierre sucked; well there's a horse that hasn't been beaten to death with a 4.91 ERA coming into this year, i doubt we'd have cleared a rotation spot for him
  22. sneakypower
    there's a much more legitimate complaint to be made for losing Hamilton than there is for Nolasco. -he wasn't in the team's plans -he never really had a spot in the rotation -he's missed a lot of time -the team would not have waited out his injuries and struggles like the $15m Marlins have is our pitching depth bad now? we can't even sneak Marshall in the rotation and Hill is still floating around there somewhere. Samardzija might not be able to fit into the rotation next year either. good for Nolasco that he's doing so well; I don't miss him one bit.
  23. sneakypower
    i much preferred Neyer's list with Asdrubal and Melky Cabrera on it and Robby Cano like 4th
  24. sneakypower
    so he's bad at hitting for average fair enough
  25. sneakypower
    why's Lee going to waive NTC?
