  1. well there goes that. hopefully we leave town with a split
  2. This is exactly where we don't want to be with this team.
  3. good to get out of that inning. let's score some runs
  4. that was pretty sweet. how did drew get that ball?
  5. deuce, my cable went out, anyone have the gameday link?
  6. Nope. Far more worried about the offense.
  7. Umpires are one of the best things about baseball. I think more cameras in ballparks for instant replay is doing something good for the wrong reason. Indeed, baseball needs more cameras, but it's not because we need more accuracy in the calls of the game, but because we need more accuracy in the account of the game. The game should be recorded, and measured, in the most accurate and complete ways possible. That's not to say video analysis shouldn't be used to evaluate umpires' performance, but I would much prefer if video was not used to influence an umpire's decision on the field. I think there is a performance incentive in not having the video to fall back on. So yeah, I voted 'no'.
  8. Pretty much all of my family originates from the Cleveland area plus I fell in love with the mid-90's teams and have been a fan ever since. My favorite player on that team is either V-Mart or Fausto Carmona, though I must admit, the only reason I originally liked the latter was because his first name was Fausto. But Pronk, Sizemore, Garko, Sabathia, Lofton are all players I like on that team.
  9. Hate them all, both of my other teams are in the AL: the Cleveland Indians and the Kansas City Royals, but they're not even close to the Cubs.
  10. I wonder if anyone (BP, Hardball Times) has looked into any sort of decline in average pitch speeds over the last few years. Slower pitches would complement the PED argument well, I would think.
  11. Tonight's the night.
  12. Geovany Soto can slam a revolving door. anyway, I'm going to ignore this game and hope for the best.
  13. IMB! is smiting like half the people on this board right now.
  14. Sweet K. Pat estimates that there are about 8000 in attendance and only 1000 of them appear to be Marlins fans.
  15. Ron just said that Lilly is 'his favorite'. Also referred to him as a 'bulldog'.
  16. Guess I'm getting this one via ol' fashioned radio.
  17. GIS for "crap happened here": wow how the hell does that happen Driving on the wrong side of the road.
  18. iffin we get that far, we should pick a bar to meet at so we can pool our resources and get a good view of the tv.
  19. I probably wouldn't have worded it as strongly, but I essentially agree. P.S. Why on earth is TBS hosting a playoff series? Good one, MLB. Why don't any major local networks (CBS, ABC, NBC) except Fox show MLB games? The same reason TBS is hosting a playoff series. $$$ I don't understand that. Why would limiting their audience make them more money? For commercials, isn't the mantra "the more, the merrier"? Because TBS pays the MLB for the rights to broadcast. They outbid someone to get that series. Whatever hit the MLB takes in terms of lost advertising they gain via the broadcast agreement.
