it's hard enough to get one person to respond to trade proposals. i can't imagine getting a third party involved.
-
false advertising. lame last day of trading overall. i had two trades out there (one for a week, the other for probably 2-3 weeks) that got no response at all.
-
andy laroche blows. pisses me off that the red sox had a huge problem and teams apparently were more than willing to take him off their hands and allow the red sox to actually improve their team.
-
So are the Pirates if any of the prospects they're supposed to get are any good. Exactly. Bay to Hermida is probably a lateral move, with Hermida being cheaper and having more upside. If they get a decent arm or 2 on top of that, they've made out. Florida is really getting screwed in this deal. Hermida and Tucker for 2 months of Manny? boston would be making out great in that trade. i don't know why any team would allow them to really win a manny trade when they're the ones in the corner.

To be fair, he hasn't really given the Cubs anything to care about. well, that's just a stupid thing to say. he's a 28 y/o, dirt cheap lefty that was one of the best pitchers in the NL in 2007. i think that's enough to make the cubs "care" about him regardless of how poorly he's pitched this season.
-
worst start yet? 3 ip, 5 h, 5 er, 3 bb, 3 hbp, 1 k
-
it would be very disappointing if the red sox actually get better with a manny trade.
-
do the cubs even care about hill at this point?
-
baker's cub teams underperformed because they had a lot of injuries to pitchers and they had a horrible approach at the plate. it wasn't because they missed cut off men or whatever your high school baseball coach liked to stress.

Official"*Z rips the Sheets off the Brewers post-game thread

If that's what you want...you're in the wrong place, pal. The motto of NSBB is "question everything" it'd be pretty boring around here if all we did was "celebrate" victories. questionable managerial decisions are going to get discussed...it's a baseball message board. -
thanks.
-
i know we have some new rule where a guy who has one ab in his first season would not burn an exemption. what were the limits for hitters and pitchers again? i thought it was 50 abs (?) for hitters...i can't find the original thread...
-
looks like it's already postponed.
-
man, the cubs can't trade this guy fast enough.
-
it's not about me trying to get braun.
-
i'm sorry, but this trade pisses me off. with two remaining exemptions braun is one of the ten most valuable players in the league. gordon's got fewer points than melvin mora. oswalt's the 83rd best SP in the league.
-
yeah, oswalt's been great. and braun has TWO exemptions left. come on.
-
i bet you [expletive] like it.
-
anybody in the west going to make a move?

Teddy's column on Mariotti in the Tribune
abuck1220 replied to RedIvyCub's topic in General Baseball Talk
i've accidentally read his columns over the past couple days, and the word "hack" doesn't even begin to describe how poor a writer this guy is. his column yesterday was full of HILARIOUS bratwurst/cheese/sausage comedy. real high brow stuff. and he must have been too busy winning that yelling contest on espn to come up with fresh d-lee material. yesterday: today: -
heh...looks like i was right.
-
let me guess...you're getting ramirez from matt.
-
[expletive]'s getting serious.
