  3. Sammy Sofa
    and you missed Warren G do the stretch Oh, that I saw. Sadly.

    The hell? It ended up being 6-1? Skerzer donged a grand slam? Thanks a horsefeathering ton, Cubbie Swagger.
  5. Sammy Sofa
    BALLER.

    and it omits our best hitter http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SPp-r93WTbA/UZk1J7FFNhI/AAAAAAAAL7o/UG19Yzh300g/s1600/haha-shut-up.gif

    Could you really hear a fastball?
  8. Sammy Sofa
    Well, now we have the second best reason to lock this thread.
  9. Sammy Sofa
    Wait until it turns out Baez is actually face-blind, you monsters.
  10. Sammy Sofa
    Yeah, if Montero is for some reason not good to go in the playoffs you have Ross catch, no question.

    Rest in peace, just checked Wikipedia. Had no idea he assumed room temperature. he's probably waving in his grave as we speak. Believe he had early-onset Alzheimer's. Pretty sad. Yeah, things got super bleak: http://www.stlsportspage.com/CARDSBASEBALL/tabid/91/entryid/1908/whatever-happened-to-wendell-kim-the-sad-story.aspx
  12. Sammy Sofa
    Well, you just washed away all of his goodwill.
  13. Sammy Sofa
    All of the PED accusations were looking at the wrong guy.
  14. Sammy Sofa
    I can deal with how boring an unexciting Zobrist is if he keeps OBPing .380 Love where his OBP sits. I'm waiting for his OPS/OPS+ to slowly rise above Starlin Castro's. Hater.

    lol awesome It took me way too long to figure out this post was about the "sandwich" part and not some kind of mysterious dick joke.

    Well, those other guys were being called up to cover positions people were (mostly) confident they could cover; Schwarber being the big exception. With Contreras, they still really want/need him to work on his defense behind the plate. Also as good as Contreras is/can be I think it's fair to say he isn't on the baseball savant level that Bryant, Russell and Schwarber were as prospects. There's a lot more factors that go into being ML ready as a catcher, as well. It's not just thinking his bat is ready to throw him out there. Oh, definitely; Contreras is a guy you hope works out and isn't likely the kind of freak you just plug in and he's kicking ass like Schwarber or Bryant (I think it's a mistake to include Russell with them along those lines; he's much more of a traditional good prospect).
  17. Sammy Sofa
    Probably. He's got fewer than 600 ABs above high A. He's probably not ready. Sorry but that's [expletive] stupid, we have how many other guys that were called up with the same number of ABs? Willson is ready, and this move is stupid as [expletive]. I hate having catchers that can't hit.

    "How did it get there?"
  19. Sammy Sofa
    Actually, I'd happily give him some good feels with no strings attached.

    I'm incredibly fortunate that I was still a lurker back then, because I would have made some posts that would look really bad in hindsight. Wait... I mean, yeah, I was always a fan of that trade. I've been Team Arrieta from Day 1. I kinda think you're Tangled up in Plaid since that thread reminded me he just up and vanished last year.
  21. Sammy Sofa
    does he still hate him? He's actually a big fan of the redemption story aspect of the whole thing, but man, does he hate that trade.
  22. Sammy Sofa
    I think I was actually on vacation, but I definitely remember thinking it was dumb when people like Truffle were harping on Shark for his comments on the trade. Plus it was one of the rare cases where I knew the scrapheap players coming back because my diehard Orioles fan friend HAAAAAATED Arrieta
  23. Sammy Sofa
    I'm so relieved I didn't post in that thread.
  24. Sammy Sofa
    Jesus, people are focused on the IFA money and actually talking about people like Shawn Camp in that thread; those were dark, dark times.
  25. Sammy Sofa
    Good ol' fashioned goofin' around.
