  1. He still is just about at that "prime year" (27-29 years old) stage of his career, so he could very well best his career bests. He just doesn't have a swing thats compatible with a high average though... 70 Home runs though? Maybe.
  2. And dear jesus I feel bad for Oakland Athletic pitchers. Their offense has even less punch than ours. I've always had a soft spot in my heart for them after reading Moneyball, and they also put the nail in the coffin of teh White Sox postseason hopes last year. Now its only a matter of time before the White Sox bats get to their pitchers. Oakland hitters are no threat to even touch Garland.
  3. Its GREAT for my fantasy team. I can't help but feel a little sorry for the guy, although looking at his bank book probably dissolves all that sympathy. I watch A-rod like I watch Albert Pujols, in amazement of their fantastic baseball abillity. They both are once (twice?) in a generation players.
  4. He should have slid! :cry:
  5. Ahahahahah Foul on Gordon for....getting smacked in the face.
  6. Do the Knicks have any offensive rebounds at all? This team has no passion, teamwork, or patience. And they aren't that far out of the playoffs either. (East :? ) I was worried about the possibility of the Raptors sneaking up behind us in the playoff seeding, but they still have Detroit twice so we should be O.k.
  7. Early in the 3rd quarter and teh Bulls have nearly twice as many points as the Knicks, 61-31
  8. Wow, just tuned in, the Knicks playing extremely ugly, selfish basketball. We win this game, we're one step closer to that 2 seed, something I didn't think we were going to even touch earlier this year.
  9. No Agent 0 or Caron Butler? We'd have to try to not sweep that series.
  10. I don't get CSN on campus in Chicago, but I do get WCIU I get BOTH CSN Chicago and CSN Northwest or some crap which is like Cardinals games and stuff. I don't get WCIU though. :?
  11. Bulls gotta hold serve to keep that coveted 2 spot. Still, amazingly, have a shot at 50 wins, but have to win all 4 final games.
  12. Soriano is the posterboy for why you don't draft a guy onto your fantasy team who just signed a massive contract. That and he's on the wrong side of 30, just had a career year, and never was a big OBP guy. There were no illusions (at least for me) on what kind of commodity he was.
  13. Ensberg K's Hurts my fantasy team. :evil:
  14. Never threatening to score is a close game? This wasn't close after the first inning.
  15. Gameday said it was a wild pitch. It was but it was right infront of Barrett he turned the wrong way and let it skip away. TERRIBLE move--it hit his glove Barrett is the worst defensive catcher in the league. Y'know, even if that were true, and its not, his offense still outweighs it. It is true. Im tired of hearing about "his offense outweighs his mistakes behind the plate." Hell, I rather have Blanco starting behind the plate each game because I know he wont be dropping off-speed pitches, I know he will block pitches in the dirt, and I know he will call a really solid game behind the plate. Barrett is garbage behind the plate. He is better served as a DH in the AL than he is a catcher in the NL. I'm not even gonna argue with you if you are going to cite vague, unreasonable things like "Calls a better game" in defense of a catcher.
  16. Cubs 2007 motto: "We're gonna try really really hard to not get shut out!

  18. Yank out his spine! sweep the leg Yes, sensei.
