    if you allow me to take off my analrapist hat and put on my scs translator pantsuit, i think he's saying that if you trade a prospect for a guy who ends up being a front end guy, it's not worth lamenting. There's 7 starts for Archer this year, the odds are still good that we got more value out of garza than the rays do out of archer.

    jonmdavis returns just to post an expletive-laden tirade about how much he hates b2b's face Jon ain't comin' back from where he went, friend. there's always parole

    You should take a glance at Steve Clevenger's game log from last year. Or Bryan LaHair's. Anyone remotely capable of being a major leaguer can have a 6 game stretch like this. It's awesome, exciting, and fun to watch, but it doesn't tell us anything about what will happen with that player in the future. my favorite crappy player with an amazing stretch has to be neifi perez's late 2004 and first couple months of 2005 Spoeaking of hot starts... let's see if anyone can guess this batting line to open a season... 13G 24H 51AB 9HR 17RBI .471/.500/1.216/1.716 francouer?

    would you have gone 10/200 to harper as an amateur? i could never give that to an ammy pitcher, but for Harper I think I would have cut the check immediately.
  5. imb

    i think im just at the point in my life where i feel like anyone taking sports seriously enough to be like "junior lake? heh. awful player, folks. IN YOUR FACE CUBS FANS DONT DARE TWEET ME." is a [expletive] stupid dork.

    Is that 5 in AA now?

    I said it was rare. There is no evidence that Hank did PED's other than trying them once, despite the fluctuations and his home runs staying on a level plane. Why do you think Aaron's numbers were so great toward the end of his career? There's no evidence that Sosa did either, but here we are

    Look at his baseball reference profile. His stat progression matches the career arc of a steroid user exactly.

I tell you, I gotta plead ignorence on this thing, because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing is frowned upon... you know, cause I've worked in a lot of offices, and I tell you, people do that all the time. "

    Dang, I wasn't covering that game. lmao he's crumpled into a heap and all the players don't move a muscle

    i feel like this whole thing is just so MLB can get the Yankees out from under ARod's contract.

    that money is sunk, they aren't going to get anything better back just by paying it, considering the alternative is just paying it in the first place. the money is sunk, but of course they should expect a better return the more they pay. if a team is getting a player, the less money they have to pay him, the more valuable he is and the more he should cost. if they don't get enough in return, then they should be paying him to play for the Cubs, not the yankees. there's no question that a team should have to give up more for soriano and $18M than for soriano and $10M (or $5M - or nothing) or something. here's how other teams are gonna look at it option a) the cubs pay soriano's 2014 salary, we pick up the rest of 2013 so you can replace him next year and we give you something not completely terrible option b) there's no option b paying the entire thing is the only way to move him. saying "well we'll accept a nothing if you pay the whole thing/a significant portion" accomplishes nothing because no one is going to do it

    its not really hard to figure out
