  1. I thought it was pretty clear from context, but if it was ambiguous, I apologize. I meant he'd be more valuable in left field than Soriano or anyone other organizational LF option. Sorry Kyle, I'm pretty sure Castro would be more valuable as a LF than LaHair
  2. His 295 minor league PAs of garbage over that timeframe isn't helping matters.
  3. It's just Amaro being a hardass. Hey Ruben, maybe you can get rid of that stellar Howard contract!!
  4. Just a slightly worse fielder than Tulo
  5. When using anecdotal evidence, I don't think it's asking too much to ask for a specific anecdote.
  6. I love that area around the arena.
  7. Do you watch golf? Have you seen the big putts Tiger has dropped in his career? Have you seen the ones he misses now? I want to know when the last time Woods missed a big 4 foot putt was.
  8. http://iowa.cubs.milb.com/milb/stats/stats.jsp?sid=t451&t=g_box&gid=2012_05_09_iowaaa_freaaa_1 That not work?
  9. Wait, Tiger Woods can't seem to ever make a 4 foot putt now?
  10. I think he'll clear it. He's going to be torrid this summer.
  11. I see to think that something like that has happened in the past and a pinch runner is allowed. What if a guy hits a sure double off the wall but breaks his leg coming out of the box? Does he still get 2nd base?
  12. I assume it's happened a few times, but that has to be incredibly rare.
  13. 4.5 from wild card. 3.5 if you assume the Mets are terrible.
  14. You're right, I bet his BA doesn't get better all year.
  15. Forces them to bring in a right-handed pinch hitter Though they brought in Russell anyways...so maybe he needed a little time to get ready?
  16. Forces them to bring in a right-handed pinch hitter
  17. Sounds about right, but I can't remember who came back for Gorzelanny. I suppose that says something. Gorz had questions about durability and maturity.
  18. If it were just about Anya, I completely agree with you. As Exile said though, I don't know if it is all about Anya. It could be because Crean liked what he did with Creek and Oladipo. It could be just his general contacts in the region. I would certainly hope Crean wouldn't give out something as important as an assistant coach primarily for one player. Even putting aside the ethics question, Crean doesn't need to do things like that to recruit players. As for the Roth situation, I'm pretty sure that you don't get approval for an injury waiver until after your senior year, no matter when the injury occurred. So Roth didn't count in regards to the oversign. I feel bad for him, because he's done everything asked of him. But a 5th year on scholarship would just be a bonus, not a guarantee. I hope he gets to play somewhere next year, whether it's for Indiana as a walk on (not likely) or somewhere else. Wait, what is the Roth situation? He's joining Robin Ventura's coaching staff
  19. Over the last 10 years, there's been 2 or 3 teams with a better #3 than Ryan Dempster. Sure, I could see that I'm understating his talent some. Are both of them from this season (Hamels and Bumgarner)? Should've read world series winners.
