    .278 & .247 when Howard doesn't K he's making much better contact

    rico fata & kessel i don't like Havlat being called a top-5 forward, without the condition 'offensively'. there are many other players i would prefer to have considering their all around game. he is instant offense though.

    everyone worth a crap got injured. They are rolling out an outfield of Francisco, Sizemore and Gutierrez these days and Andy Marte is hitting about .150 for what it's worth, Sizemore is pretty decent

    if the Padres slash their payroll by $34m, they're one Jake Peavy blown elbow away from probably the first winless season in MLB history

    whats with the Brenly bolding?
  6. sneakypower
    You said it, man. Nobody effs with the Jesus.

    "Creepy Cardinals fan" is kinda redundant
  8. sneakypower
    with Angel Berroa, Tony Pena Jr. and Luis Rivas getting regular at bats, I'm not sure I can stomach the idea of further talent dilution

    I didn't realize .331/.364/.522/.886 since june was nothing in AAA. And I'm with raw, this is Gary Gaetti part 2. and just 24 K in 174 AB he shortened up his swing and his production has really benefitted

    hopefully its paraplegia

    his whole sentiment is weird. "the Cardinals are doing quite well without him." well, other than being 7 games back or whatever

    there's only 5 people in baseball who OPS that high for any amount of money and i just noticed Ryan Ludwick has the highest SLG in baseball wowsers

    Jay Jackson

    I don't think they do, I could be wrong though. If so, Hendry is the obvious choice in the NL and deserves it. it's just MLB - voted on by two execs from each organization in the game. last year mark shapiro won it; the year before it was terry ryan. don't look at who won in 2003

    and sinker and change

    maybe he meant Armando Rios and it was just an unfortunate Freudian slip

    Nook had no bat speed. I honestly have no idea why Gomez just stopped running. 5-14 for SB's since May 12. This is a guy who averaged 68 steals per 162 games in the minors. it's like he shows up to play fantastic defense and the rest of the game is half-assed. he's coasting on tools alone right now. ...which just goes to show how disingenuous the quote in the original post of this thread was. it's better GM manners to come up with some hairbrained rationalization for what looks like a stupid move. "i'll take the guy with the bad ERA and good record" rather than "Livan's been pretty shitty/lucky and we're just manipulating another year out of Liriano at this point" serves well enough to keep people off your trail of penny pinching.

    dumbest organization in pro sports? dumbest question in recent NSBB history?
  20. sneakypower
    this seems as kind of a 2006 Ray Durham situation. he's had a rejuvenation but at the end of the day GMs are going to look at his age and it will really temper their expectations for what he has left to contribute. Durham got 3/20 as a 35 year old, and Edmonds being 38, i can't see anything more than 1/9 or 2/15. he'll probably be viewed as a LF also.

    ick i do not like Bowden's mechanics at all. he hangs his arm down in his leg kick twisting his wrist around almost like you'd see a little 8 year old little leaguer doing. it just screams shoulder injury to me.
  22. sneakypower
    the Cardinals duh
  23. sneakypower
    i think its safe to say this R. Garcia guy is under performing his FIP
  24. sneakypower
    Brandon Moss not Damien Moss Laroche is a future .400/.500 hitter though, I like what the Pirates got back in this one.
  25. sneakypower
    that's a bizarre misinterpretation i plainly said all GMs probably say that crap because they think it's what the majority of the meathead fans like to hear, but GMs who are perceived as more forward thinking get much more leeway for their innocuous platitudes
