  1. That doesn't explain his love for Jeter though. Not that I need to point this out, but he loves to contradict himself. I think last year at the HR Derby, they had Reggie Jackson on while Tejada was batting. Morgan said something along the lines of "well if you look at the statistics, Tejada has actually put up better numbers than Jeter." Reggie of course interrupted him and said that no one has Jeter's intangiables and how he wouldn't take any player in the game over Jeter. As much as he loves Jeter and knowing his stance on stats, I was very surprised to hear him say that about Tejada. Well, there has never been any argument saying that Jeter is a better second baseman than Morgan. Not that I really think Sandberg was better than Morgan, but you get my point.
  2. I dont get it either, maybe its just that he doesnt like players that played after him? I mean, even the article mentions how much he respects the players that played before him. I guess its more of that "good old boy" stuff.
  3. I appreciate the sentiment, but having 14 games left against the Cards is hardly reassurring.
  4. Sweet, he's getting called up soon. I was wondering what was taking so long, 3 year guy in a big baseball conference, he's clearly too advanced.
  5. Philly would have to eat so much of Abreu's contract in a Zambrano/Abreu deal, that in the end it just wouldnt be worth it. I mean, are the Cubs going to add like 15 million to the payroll for the rest of Bobby's career?
  6. Hahahahahahahha, this thread is awesome, thumbs way, way up. "Grieve is better than Macias" "BUT HES HITTING .248 IN AAA AND NO OTHER TEAM WANTS HIM" "no one else wants Macias either, I'm not saying he's a star, I'm saying he's better than Macias" "YEAH RIGHT HE CANT HIT IN AAA WHY DO YOU WORSHIP HIM" "I said he would be a better option off the bench than Macias, not that I thought he was great" "LOL HE CANT HIT AAA WHAT MAKES YOU THINK HES GOING TO TURN INTO AN ALL-STAR, AM I TAKING CRAZY PILLS?" "I never said that, I said that he was better than Macias, why arent you even replying to what I say" "LOL IM TRYING TO DO SOME SCIENCE OVER HERE AND BLONDY IS TRYING TO MAKE OUT WITH ME"
  7. I voted for him too, because I like him. Also, Astros have a better record than us.
  8. Good for Oswalt, and too bad for Matsui. For some reason, despite obvious reasons for why I shouldnt, I really like both of them.
  9. If he really cant go as a starter, you might as well try it out.
  10. I agree with the majority of your post, except this part. Don't pigeon-hole a hitter because of his height. This isnt basketball. Hitting for power doesnt have much to do with how tall you are.
  11. Lock/Merge this, I just saw it mentioned in another thread.
  12. On BBTN, Gammons was talking about the Cubs and Kotsay, and he said "the Cubs OBP at the top is so bad, they were going to bring up Felix Pie from AA, and then he got hurt" Tell me this franchise isnt that stupid. Someone in the know tell me this wasnt going to happen.
  13. It's all we can do to get Hairston in left, Dusty will never let Walker set foot out there.
  14. There is this thing called OBP, I think it's a new idea or something.
  15. isnt grady little already gone?
  16. i hope the nasa comet hits the earth and that russian guy gets his 300 million bucks cause we all DIE
  17. He does it everytime, I thought it was common knowledge by now.
  18. KILL YOURSELF SO I NEVER DRAFT YOU AGAIN
  19. power of the beard man. i grew one on a whim in the fall, it was awesome and everyone loved it.
  20. Corey's defense is hardly gold-glove caliber. Especially since he seems to take his bat out into the field with him now.
  21. Why do we want Youklis? He'd never see the field here. Unless you said to turn him around and trade him, and I just missed it.
  22. my idiot self likes Ramirez more than Rolen. Maybe it's because Rolen's bat has been asleep for the last 9 months, but whatever.
  23. are we really still fighting about sammy sosa?
  24. In April, I traded a slumping Brian Giles for a slumping Travis Hafner. Giles has been good, but Hafner has been :shock: :shock: :shock:
  25. Although they do have some decent inhouse options, its quite scary since the dodgers farm is significantly better than ours. They may go after Dunn, who we weren't going to get anyway. Yeah thats what I was saying today at work, Dunn and Depodesta go together well. Edwin Jackson and others to the Reds probably.
