  1. Why is it suddenly necessary to move Kosuke to CF? I'm not all that keen on taking Edmonds's bat out of the lineup, personally.
  2. Well, I might sneak into the 2nd or 3rd round next year then. Interesting: Josh Freeman, soph yr - 63.3 comp %, 6.7 yards per pass, 18:11 TD:INT, 127.3 rating Matt Ryan, jr yr - 61.6%, 6.9 y/pass, 15:10 TD:INT, 126.4 rating I don't think a "mediocre" year from Freeman should make him the #1 pick, just as I don't think Matt Ryan should have been the first QB taken in the draft. But, I can see the precedent for an NFL team falling in love with Freeman's natural skills (he is 6'6, 250) much like they did Ryan's and not looking at the stats. Freeman's sophomore year and Ryan's junior year were eerily similar. Freeman won't have Jordy Nelson to save his ass. I don't know what Ryan' decision making abilities were like, but freeman's are pretty bad. The offense is basically designed to make him think as little as possible. Ryan threw about eleventy billion more interceptions than any previous high-rated draft QB, so it's safe to say his decision-making wasn't great. I would have thought you would go off on a tangent considering how much you hate Ryan and BC. I've gone off on my tangents. Now that Ryan is in my NFL team's division he doesn't annoy me as much because I like to imagine Ken Lucas and Chris Gamble picking him off all day long.
  3. Soapdrop this entire damned month. Best team in baseball trades for Rich Harden and suddenly they are horrible. That makes all the soapdropping sense in the world.
  4. I didn't see who's coming up. It doesn't matter.
  5. Go Astros. Keep this worst-best-team-in-the-NL-in-history in 1st place.
  6. DAMN YOU MARLINS DAMN YOU TO HELL YOU STUPID FRANCHISE
  7. Jeremy Hermida is the greatest player on the planet.
  8. Great pitch to get Hanley there, Gaudin.
  9. He was safe, but if a Cub did that he'd have been called out too.
  10. Reed guns him out! STUPID move by Andino.
  11. Who can hate the Nats? Pirates? Flores. McLouth off Marmol. That's why.
  12. I'm ok with Colorado after they let us beat up on them this year.
  13. Ugh. Every inning we keep playing is like a game of Russian Roulette with our pen.
  14. Now Dan Uggla makes defensive plays. Ass.
  15. Now the Soriano IBB to effectively make the bunt pointless.
  16. Lefty pitching so MLB rules prohibit us from sending a lefty batter up. Wait, they don't? We're allowed to hit superior hitters if we want? Someone alert Trammell!
  17. Fuku, Ward/Edmonds, and Soriano. Sounds like a win.
  18. Ball 3 was a strike. And Strike 1 was a ball.
  19. He was tossed quickly because Rob Drake is a grade-A punkass who doesn't deserve his job.
  20. Hermida is absolutely going to homer off Eyre.
  21. Naturally, he's better than anyone in our bullpen! (Save DL'ed players)
