  1. they project a bowl for Miami. That saddens me
  2. If signing Meche meant Dave Duncan was coming too, I would risk it
  3. btw, Leyland won in the AL, and no one was surprised
  4. the logo has not yet been unveiled
  5. ....for firing the NL Manager of the Year. /dumbass EDIT:Link
  6. hmmmm, wonder why the Blanco thread got locked?
  7. It looks like a loyalty signing. It's good to be on Hendry's good side it seems
  8. Wasn't Royce Ring supposed to be some great thing? Wasn't he in the White Sox farm at one point?
  9. Rotoworld always puts things into nice persepective:
  10. you assume he considers those past contracts "mistakes"
  11. That doesn't sound like someone that's going to trade Izturis to me. Why tip his hand? If anything it can be construed as talking up Izzy for a potential trade. Right, GM's don't say "We really want to trade this guy because he sucks and we hate him." Well...our GM does. Or has been known to. Lets hope he has lived and learned from that. don't remind me
  12. perfect for a team that is adding night games every year
  13. That doesn't sound like someone that's going to trade Izturis to me. Why tip his hand? If anything it can be construed as talking up Izzy for a potential trade. Right, GM's don't say "We really want to trade this guy because he sucks and we hate him."
  14. I'm not convinced that Hendry actually like Izturis much. Weren't the rumors that after the Dodgers said no to sending prospects for Maddux, that Hendry took Izturis just to look like he wasn't gving Greg away for free?
  15. BABIP is also fluctuating. Did Juan Pierre suddenly become a better hitter in the 2nd half last year, or were more of his "flares" just finding holes? Without looking, I'd say his BABIP spiked in the 2nd half.
  16. unlikely to happen until the Winter Meetings (which are when? Early December?)
  17. if the market value for bad backup catchers is $2.5 million a year, teams like Pittsburgh and KC have no chance ever
  18. Speculation can turn into a contract mighty quick. DeRosa wasn't even speculated...that just happened.
  19. I think our mission is clear: Kill Bruce Levine!
  20. I'm fairly certain that's what happens. so an upgrade (for PSU) from Alamo Bowl vs. someone like Mizzou or KSU to the Outback Bowl vs. Georgia/Kentucky/Tennessee and an upgrade for Wisconsin to the Capital One Bowl. All assuming that UM/O$U loser gets an at-large bid to a BCS game.
  21. Not so Bold Prediction: 3 years / $27 million with a 4th year player option for $11 million, $7 million buy out
  22. because the Cubs like pitchers who give up a ton of walks and homers?
