  1. I hope Richard gets released so I can stop seeing people call him Richards. And because he's bad at baseball.
  2. Isn't the price supposed to be crazy cheap? I don't think the Phils want him around their clubhouse anymore, and they don't want his option to vest for next year. Option will vest with 19 more games finished this season, and 1. they likely are afraid of a grievance for pulling a "proven closer" from the role while he's having a great year and 2. Macphail seems the the type that tries to "do good" by players and doesn't view it as right to pull him for contract purposes. We on the other hand 1. have plausible deniability in that Papelbon is new to the team, and we have a closer(ish) already and 2. Told the MLBPA to suck it, we're bringing up Kris Bryant as early as humanly possible while delaying his free agency a year
  3. Digging around for some Sierra Mist Out of Nyquil caps?
  4. Shocked the Marlins were in that span, but they did make it there.
  5. Maybe a title amendment for the View Active Topics folks?
  6. Planes Trains & Automobiles quotes. Love you guys.
  7. Isn't Justin Grimm/Cody Allen a pretty optimistic projection for a guy walking 6 per 9 in AA/AAA?
  8. How is that a question? You always root against the Cardinals unless death is on the line. So what do you do when a Cardinal drives a car?
  9. CJ was 38 on hopes he could still start right?
  10. Mooney has hinted around at the same thing, just without a dollar amount attached. They've got their hands around the debt structure stuff pretty well. And yeah, we've got extra revenues starting to come in, but this is the first year for most of them, right? So assuming this IS debt related(I do), there's the very good chance that spending heavily on IFA's cuts deeply into what we can do prior to the deadline. I'm hoping that since those guys sign contracts for NEXT season, that their bonuses can be counted towards next season and that's the reason for Crane's comments about Theo being resourceful. Unfortunately, I THINK that this is just Crane taking blame off himself and Ricketts by saying we've got money available, even if its not enough to do anything we want. Either way, as David said, a Kazmir addition is great with me. Aren't we not really spending that heavily on IFAs?
  11. I remain steadfast in my belief that any new dollar in is spent on the renovations
  12. That's not all that matters. An inning+ with a 3 run lead or, 3+ innings with any lead will also result in a save if you finish the game.
  13. No, you take your death with honor.
  14. Not a very Christ-like thing to be gloating about. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51%2B14bonH2L.jpg
  15. Thr big bang theory The show or the theory?
  16. Military guys are the worst, aren't they? it's pretty great that this is sarcasm but yes some of them are awful but that's not why i said that. i said it because he looks like a doofus. I almost made that post as a tone-deaf Cardinals fan joke.
  17. In honor of wanting to jump out of a plane without a parachute, Geronimo
  18. Yeah, he totally woulda pegged that guy at the plate from deep RF
  19. http://www.recapo.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/heroin-300x225.jpg
  20. Yes, I'm responding to hour old posts, but we're going to lose by 80, so I don't care.
