    Nice DP.
  2. Outshined_One
    Novoa and Ohman up. Hooray.
  3. Outshined_One
    Looks like Carlos Lee might save Z's arm.
  4. Outshined_One
    Dusty's on a mission to save his job, pitcher abuse be damned.
  5. Outshined_One
    He'll go complete unless disaster happens. I smell 130+ pitches.
  6. Outshined_One
    I'm guessing pop-up followed by a double play.
  7. Outshined_One
    I hired you people to try to get a little track laid, not to jump around like a bunch of Kansas City *bleeps*!
  8. Outshined_One
    Real bunt, no idea if it was Jock's decision.
  9. Outshined_One
    Gee Jim, still think you should have traded Walker for him? http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/profile?statsId=6503

    See, Brenly being able to call that kind of play and say it's a good idea is pretty good evidence for why he shouldn't be brought in to manage this team.
  11. Outshined_One
    So...I'm guessing that was the third or fourth time Jock has successfully laid down a bunt in play in his life?
  12. Outshined_One
    First pitch popups rule!
  13. Outshined_One
    Gotta love that career .260/.295/.337 line. He's perfect for batting second!

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh, rainy season in Florida. Daytona got PPD...again.

    They have a few guys who are decent, but no one projects as a superstar. C George Kottaras is the best guy down there. He's a very good hitter, from what I can tell; no idea about his defense, though. LHP Sean Thompson and OF Drew Macias (no relation) both project to be okay guys at the ML level.

    Just imagine the pandemonium on this board if Dusty had accepted that extension. Holy wow.

    I have a friend who's working for Team USA this summer. I'll provide infrequent updates on some of the guys there, but right now he's convinced that LHP David Price out of Vanderbilt is going to go #1 overall. According to him, Price was working in the mid-90s and touched 98 with his stuff. Great deception, a bit of a dip in his delivery that either adds to the deception or needs to be ironed out, good athleticism and defense around the mound, and has some wicked pitches to work with.

    What about Terrell Davis? In all truth, given the way Denver seems to produce 1,000 yard backs like an assembly line, I'd be curious to see what he would have done in a different system. He clearly is better than any of the RBs they've had during that stretch, but I have to wonder how much better.
  19. Outshined_One
    Holdzkom went 2 IP yesterday; I kinda doubt he'll start today.

    I thought I heard something go "WOOSH!" over my head when I read that. ;)

    Oh ESPN, you hilarious jokers! What a terrific goat pun you managed to work into that pithy headline! It looks like the Dusty Baker Saga has reached ESPN's front page, complete with this gem from Gene Wojejejejchichowbowski. Basically, he really doesn't have much of a point. He says Dusty should stay, but he doesn't lay out any positives Dusty brings to the table...just excuses. He also implies Hendry and MacPhail should get canned before Baker. I'm just as confused as most of you likely are at this moment. Surprisingly, Game 6 was only alluded to in passing with no references to Steve Bartman.
  22. Outshined_One
    Smith is one of the all time greats, but not the greatest.
  23. Outshined_One
    I Feel Good about that assumption I do too, but you have to wonder what would have happened if he hadn't retired until he was, say, 35.
  24. Outshined_One
    Next year, I'm doing a "Sabotage the Vote!" campaign on every NL board I post on. Basically, I'm going to try convincing everyone to vote for a guy in the AL who plays a non-superstar position like 2B and has no right whatsoever being in the game. I'm talking about some one like Damian Jackson. If it succeeds, I think it'll get the message across.
  25. Outshined_One
    Anything for publicity! ;)
