  1. If that's true, why the heck did Barrett drive himself to the hospital? If he was concussed, he was in absolutely no condition to drive himself anywhere. i love the line "they don't send you to a hospital for a busted lip". they do actually if it requires stitches. the guy is making crap up.
  2. i'm on the chemistry-is-not-important-to-the team-at-all bandwagon, but if zambrano is slamming barrett's head against a locker and throwing multiple punches, he needs to be gotten rid of. that's just ridiculous.
  3. Jesus, either Zambrano is a way superior fighter, or the more likely case, Barrett went in the clubhouse to make amends and Z ambushed him.
  4. my friend sent me a text during work today that said "zambrano hits like a girl" and i thought it was a totally random text message about z's hitting swing. holy **** what a mess i missed
  5. i think it's ridiculous that ortiz is mentioned but no manny.
  6. since everyone is talking about how bad barrett's offense has been, has blanco's defense been all that great? he's only thrown out 1 runner stealing.
  7. oooh, a red sox fan. how non-bandwagon.
  8. since when is security privy to this information? "fans are gonna try to kill julian taverez when they found out we traded for alfonseca, so be prepared"
  9. all these losses are equally hilarious
  10. a-rod haters can't complain he doesn't come through in the clutch and that he doesn't care about his team. that's as unselfish as it gets.
  11. i never thought barrett's pitch calling hurt the team, or made the pitchers worse. but his ability to block pitches and throw out runners has been seemed worse this year.
  12. i think my hacking mass team is better than my real fantasy teams
  13. Barrett's a fine offensive player...for a catcher. I don't think his numbers will improve significantly with a position change. At least not to the point where it's good enough for a corner outfielder. It'd be great if he could play 2B competently, but I doubt he could.
  14. It may be ridiculous, but I wouldn't expect anything less from Bonds.Then his manager should insist that he play rather than leaving the decision up to Barroids. The manager decides who plays and when, not the players. is there a link to where barry bonds has publicly said this? i highly doubt it's true.
  15. then hire him and give him a payroll of 60 million How would they do this? Lot of guys committed for a lot of money who aren't all that desirable on the market... all the more exciting for beane, i guess
  16. then hire him and give him a payroll of 60 million
  17. the reds won. wtg hopper.
  18. maybe dusty will come back if we ask nicely
  19. .265/.328, and he is the problem? not THE problem, but you mention those numbers as if that's good.
  20. name a player with a high ops that doesn't add runs to the scoreboard i can name some that haven't been great at putting runs on the board: Derrek Lee Todd Helton Jorge Posada Ken Griffey Jr. it looks like all of them are on pace for 90+ rbi seasons.
  21. leave it to the cubs to make the worst hitter in baseball so far break out of his slump
