    Sounds painful. Sounds more fun than watching the hall of fame game.

    which rules are you referring to? Probably the same rules that Brian Roberts and scads of others broke, yet people would have no problem with those guys on the team. Has anyone stopped being a fan of the Cubs because they didn't outright release Robert Hernandez? Brian Roberts and Robert Hernandez committed perjury too? You think that's why so many people have problems with Bonds?

    He's averaging over 6 per start this year...and every other(non cup of coffee) year of his career.

    This comparison, it's horrible comparison.

    I kinda like that brown hat.

    This is very wrong, a Yankees fan can't go 2 minutes without saying COUNT THE RINGZ

    I think Burnett is our best case scenario. I just fear what Hendry considers a front-line starter, and he'll go chase Kenny Rogers. Then again, by July the Tigers will probably be within 2 games of 1st place.

    Lou, Marmol. 2nd verse same as the 1st.

    Oh, I totally agree that the Brewers making up ~8 games over 4 months is pretty unlikely, I'm just saying if you're gonna be worried about a team, at least worry about a team with a lot of high-potential talent with an actual chance to go off.

    The Mets really bent the Twins over in that trade.

    The Brewers will finish ahead of the Cardinals. The only reason to scoreboard watch the Cardinals is out of pure hatred for them. I still don't understand why people keep saying this. Kyle Lohse just shut down maybe the NL's best offense today, and the Cards are getting production from random scrubs like skip schumaker and brian barton and they still haven't "come back down to earth". I want the losers to fold as much as the next guy, but I don't see it happening. I just don't. More fun with arbitrary start points: Cardinals since May 6th - 19-17. They got out to a great start, they've come back down to earth now. And they get to play the next month without their best position player and their best pitcher. They're toast. (And as I'm sure most Cards fans would tell you, Brian Barton has been terrible.)

    Yes, because it has prevented guys like Braun, Dunn, and Soriano from playing big league baseball. I know the guy is a butcher in the field, but he will hit well enough to play no matter what. I'd be fine with them calling up Gamel and throwing him at 3B, it'd be hilarious. Throw LaPorta out in RF and slide Hart to CF while they're at it. Jeff Suppan would probably be siting in jail for homicide after a couple weeks.

    I was wondering what I was supposed to expect.

    This guy was 11 when Gaetti signed with the Cubs. I'm sure it really crushed his heart.

    Fun with arbitrary start points. Ryan Ludwick since May 24th: .243/.289/.471
  19. SouthSideRyan
    People keep saying this and it's not really true, I can't remember the last time I saw people freaking out because Lou wasn't using Marmol.

    Howry since April(including today): 3.13 ERA 20 Ks, 3 BB You sure thats right SSR? He had a 1.76 ERA in May, and so far in June he has a 6.75, that would be a 4.26 ERA wouldnt it? Howry was terrible in April, great in May, and so far terrible in June. I dont know what his deal is hes historically a slow starter, and right now he has no business in a close game, but that doesnt mean he shouldnt be used at all. Games like today are when he should be used for right now until he starts getting batters out consistently. Right now Eyre and Marmol should be the setup guys. It's not a straight average because Howry pitched 15 1/3 innings in May, and only 5 innings so far in June. I'm actually calculating a 3.10 ERA for him since the end of April. Thinking about it, I probably divided by 20.1 instead of 20 1/3 without thinking.
  21. SouthSideRyan
    Meatball.
  22. SouthSideRyan
    You're just combining his May and June ERAs and dividing by 2. He threw a lot more innings in May.
  23. SouthSideRyan
    Darrin Jackson is such a yes man to Hawk's hillbilly ramblings. It's painful.
  24. SouthSideRyan
    ??? i just watched both replays and they were normal home runs (i.e. over the fence) Yahoo gamecast has failed me. Sad, I was all set for another Tim Kurkijan freak out on baseball tonight.
