  1. I mentioned in my post that I don't always agree with sportswriters (especially about Santo), but I would hope that posters ought to agree that any player elected on the first ballot was a great player (and usually a great hitter). If posters can't agree that players like Carew, Boggs, Brett, etc. were great hitters, then I think their definition of a great hitter is skewed. my goodness, dude, what on earth are you talking about? who the hell said george brett wasn't a great hitter? your posts in this thread have been beyond awful.
  2. this post-race interviewer is brutal. i liked when he asked the 4x100 guy if they practiced hand offs. i would have punched him.
  3. why sign teix when we have a $300,000 version of him OPS-ing 1.600(ish) in AAA?
  4. roosevelt brown? seriously, hoffpauir's not the answer to anything. but there may be some complacency from fukudome. am i sensing complacency? yes, i think i am. Hoffpauir has been hitting the cover off the baseball all season long. He also did well in his short time in the Majors. Something needs to change. Fukudome has an OPS of .631 the 2nd half of the season and has been awful since May. yeah, because this season is quickly spiraling out of control.

  6. That really has nothing to do with it. I think he finally adjusted to his loss of velocity and now is back on track. I agree. I think it doesn't matter to him if he is the '#1' or the '#5' He just goes out there to get a W for his team. I highly doubt anyone went up to him after the Harden trade and saidyou are now officially #4. there was actually a ceremony.
  7. going to GIS that 14 y/o diver that was crying after she didn't make the finals...be right back. HOT.
  8. do you guys even like sports or do you just watch the olympics to change up your masturbating routines?
  9. my goodness, this game thread is the toilet of the internet. what is wrong with you people.
  10. he increased the length of his leg??!!
  11. why are you guys using logic to argue with this guy? he a) made up a term and b) made up the standard that you need to meet to qualify for this made up term. it's idiotic. guess what...i only like hitters that i deem "ultra mega-hitters." to qualify for this standard, you have to hit at least 31 doubles, 17 homers, wear your pants high and be from east of the mississippi. let's have 8 pages of message board argument about how dumb i am.
  12. i thought you said it was interesting.
  13. see...right there...you had to look up stats like some kind of scientist with a pocket protector. you shouldn't have to "look up" stats to know someone is a great hitter. YOU KNOW IT WHEN YOU SEE IT.
  14. i'm amused that hitting "the sweet spot of the ball" is a trait attributed to guys not named adam dunn given that i think adam dunn gets a pretty good chunk of the sweet spot when he hits it to the moon, and i question how many singles flipped the other way off the bat of rod carew were truly the result of striking the ball on the sweet spot.
  15. ok, non-throwing related injuries.
  16. ok, well that sounds pretty dumb.
  17. has the criteria for "pure hitter"tm been established yet? i'd love to hear it.
  18. so because prior's non-pitching injuries led to pitching injuries, harden's will too?
  19. calm down there, guy. i haven't seen you this worked up since they ran the gymnastics floor routines in slo-mo.
  20. aren't you the same guy that soriano should win the NL MVP? :rotfl:
  21. everybody just say soriano's the mvp so this terrible thread can die. my goodness.
  22. dew? more like ewwwww.
  23. i can deal with stupid threads. but terrible smack talking is taking this thread down to an entirely new level.
