    BRADLEY WITH THE LEATHER!

    Fukucopter, that Lou probably caused - I doubt Kosuke swings at that without Theriot running.

    Gathright traded to Baltimore for Freel. How does that free up a spot on the 25-man roster? Freel is technically currently rehabbing in the minors. Yeah, Scales will go down when Freel is ready.

    I really like that lineup. A lot.

    How was he better in 2008? His AVG, OBP, OPS, OPS+, wOBA, WPA, and most any other metric you can come up with were better than Miles' career numbers. Oh, better than his career, okay. But Miles was better in 2008, he was also better in 2007. Freel is hardly an upgrade to Miles. He's a very similar player who could easily be worse, again. Pixie-dust Aaron Miles shouldn't count. Normal Freel >> Normal Miles. I've been asking since the Gathright signing why we didn't just keep Pie if we wanted a speed-only guy on the bench. Pie was better on defense than Gathright anyway. So instead we trade for a guy who is a worse DeRosa. Sure seems like Hendry regrets a lot of his off-season already.

    Polo Grounds.

    There are so many idiots on this team that we could dump right now for Wells, but I'm guessing that something dumb like DFAing Guzman will be done.

    Yeah, I enjoy the actual sport of baseball more than football. Everything surrounding college football weekends is what puts it over the top for me.

    We would sweep, so I'd rather have the middle three games. :)

    Baker Bowl was the home run haven of the dead-ball era, wasn't it? I'm sure there's something there. The obvious answer for County Stadium is the Jake Taylor walk-off bunt single to win the AL East playoff over the Yankees.

    His immediate predecessor, no less.

    Theriot does it again.

    How about let's give incentive for Hasheem Thabeet and his ilk not to fake injuries so better shooters can shoot the free throws, then come back into the game 30 seconds later? Man let it go, Hasheem is gone now. I'm just saying. He's almost certainly a big reason for this rule change, having done the fake-injury thing twice in the 08-09 season.

    This post makes me want to see Berkman run from a lightning strike again. I don't know which I like better: That clip, or the clip of A-Rod slapping the ball away like a girl during the 2004 ALCS. At least A-Rod was trying to make something happen, unbelievably stupid as it was. Berkman somehow thought a lightning strike was going to seek out his necklace over the hundreds of tons of steel on the building he was in.

OPS at AA in 2008 - .891 OPS at AAA this year - .883 On the Ryan Ludwick scale that should equal to at least a .950 MLB OPS.

    Pujols

    Andy replied to Shilzzz's topic in General Baseball Talk

    Even though Pujols is a complete ass on the field, it's easy to like him off it, and he's being pretty brazen about his cleanliness, but still. We as fans really have no idea who the guy really is and whether he would use or is using.

    Let's pound Russ Ortiz. And good Ted Lilly should show up.

    So happy to see Aramis coming up with two on.

    It's too bad Hoff can't play 3rd so he could spell Rammy every now and then, and also give us one less reason to have Aaron Miles on this team. One less than zero?
  24. Andy
    There are some stupid ones, but I'm glad to say I rarely see anyone actually wearing them.

    Samardzija should never have been up to begin with.
