  1. Dudes a gamer. He's the spark that gets the rest of the team going. Those other guys may have the numbers, but players like Ellsbury are invaluable. So on and so forth, rabble rabble rabble. Not to mention the fact that he's won a World Series already. So have Coco Crisp and Anthony Reyes, want either of them?
  2. 54 games is 1/3rd of the season. less than 2/3rds left.
  3. Wood is definitely settling into the closer role!
  4. It is just so hard to imagine all the dollars that Dusty cost him! Honestly I feel for him. Pavano is a completely different story!
  5. Ken Griffey Jr. once stopped at the top of the dugout asked me to repeat myself and called me a fat f&^k! Needless to say my "inappropriate" heckling continued.
  6. I was expecting more blatant "Iowa sucks" jokes. Is everyone felling alright?
  7. FAN-tastic!! =D> =D>
  8. Ernie Broglio?
  9. WOW! That is just wrong!
  10. he approves... http://a.abcnews.com/images/Sports/ap_joakim_noah_070629_ms.jpg Spectacular!! =D>
  11. I don't have a problem with what he said. I do have to question where this "fire" is that he supposedly had when he came to Chicago? Fine, separate your job from your personal life. But do your job better!
  12. Even Edmonds himself probably knows that he is done. But he's not stupid enough to retire as long as someone else is stupid enough to give him a job. Exactly, if he retires he doesn't get what is left of his 8 million! I know 8M would keep me in the game.
  13. I like Len. I could care less if Brenley stays or goes. I admit he has gotten on my nerves on occasion, but not nearly as bad as Carter or others.
  14. Some of those were pretty funny.
  15. Freddy Krueger! Nice. Milwaukee's pen is where washed up relievers go for another paycheck!
  16. Man, A thread I thought I could really have some fun with. Then I read it and saw the Yankees hatred and Beltran trades come through. Oh well.
  17. I would like to thank everyone participating, in that I had not seen this one yet in all my time here. I am amazed, and that is a great picture. Thank you. +1! that is a great photo! I will be posting that on a Met board when the time is right! LOL
  18. The Yanks are different then the Cardinals. I can't think of anyone on the Yanks that I really dislike. I can't watch Mussina pitch, but other then that...... Also, there's a big difference between what kind of a player Jim Edmonds is right now and what ARod is right now. If Pujols could play CF and he was a FA I'd want the Cubs to sign him. Jim Edmonds............ not so much. Right, which is the point I was trying to make. Like I said, I would've used the Pujols example, but I'm not going to get into a debate that's been beaten to death time after time after time on here. A-Rod and Pujols are bad comparisons as they are players with several good years ahead of them. As a Yankee fan I detested the signing of Damon. But the Edmonds signing would be more comparable to the Yankees signing Jason Varitek. That would absolutely drive me insane! I can easily understand the hatred carrying over even when players go to another team! I can think of MANY Red Sox and Met players I would have hated to have on the Yankees!
  19. Jim Edmonds to the Cubs would be great for me! I would be able to dole out smack for days to certain fans!
  20. Can it get worse for this guy and him still have a job? Seriously.
  21. I always understood it as force outs take precedent over the runner scoring. Say the bases are loaded, Pie's at 3rd and Soto's at 1st. On a ball hit deep in the hole that barely forces out Soto at 2nd after Pie crosses home, the run doesn't count. That's why I'm surprised at CCP's explanation. I always understood those plays to be force outs. I think some confusion lies in what the exact definition of "Force Out" is. I think MLB defines it as when a runner MUST move up a base, and you can get the out by just throwing to the base he's moving towards. Doubling someone off a base is not considered a force out. So yes, SouthSideRyan: Force out do take precedence over the runner scoring, but the situation the original poster brought up is not considered a force out. Yes, that is what I was trying to say. The runner at second was not a force out.
  22. I think usually this is the case but for some reason I have a hunch that it might be different in the case of a double off. I think you may have to tag because until then you don't have a claim to any base. That is true on a standard double play, because the hitter has to be out. In this case however the hitter is the first out. This would be akin to the throw going home and the runner on second breaking for third. The catcher can throw to third and get the runner out, but the run counts.
  23. The run counts because he scored before the third out was made.
