  1. Please, fill the internet will all your inanities and swap algorythms with your buddies until the cows come home...but DO NOT confuse yourself with a baseball fan. It is an insult to both the true fan and to the game. A baseball fan does not dishonor the game, or those who actually play it, by attempting to reduce them to silly equations. ummmm.....? It's in the article. Oh, haha. I can see I'm dense today 8-)

  3. Those hackers. :lol:
  4. Great news for the Cubs, as he was also rumored to be a possible acquisition for the Cards and Crew. ESPN 1070 in Madison local report led off with the story -- they're clearly disappointed he's off the market :twisted:

    zing!
  6. It does smell a little worse than the newer stadiums, but I don't see how it's that bad.
  7. Let's just get the hell out of here and get to the break. At least the Brewers are sucking on the road right now too.
  8. CRAPMASTERS DELUXE! THANK YOU HOWRY YOU TURD.
  9. With the way Howry's pitching so far, it's all about to become academic.
  10. Relax. Barrett was a good hitting catcher and the pitchers had an ERA of over 5 with him as a catcher, while Blanco/Hill saw an ERA of around 2.00. Besides, they have been winning since they traded Barrett. They have been winning in spite of the catchers terrible offense. Didn't Hill throw one into center that kept that inning alive that turned into the 3 runs for the Pirates, too? Hill's defense is also horrid. We traded away the worst catcher in the division for the worst in the world. We didnt trade Barrett for hill, though. But I agree. Barrett was having a bad year. But he was still hitting far better than Bowen and Hill combined. And, yes, barrett's defense was pretty bad, but Hill and Bowen havent shown they are too much better. I'd wager that Barrett would have thrown out that baserunner today. Actually, he wasnt. I can remember several times when he would whiff at a pitch in the strike zone that the batter didnt swing at. Barretts shorcomings have been obscured by a myriad of other problems though...that and he has always been given the benefit of the doubt by reporters since he has been a stand up guy. I think Barrett was a quality person but a liability as a catcher. see Koyie Hill and Rob Bowen Ditto. For all Barrett's problems I'd still take him and his bat over these career minor-leaguers. Any day.
  11. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111
  12. Brother. We really need some 2 out juice from Lee here.
  13. Come on dammit. This could be our last chance.

  16. Oh, for a comeback here. Think of the possibilities.
  17. BELLIARD CLEARS THE BASES!!!! 7 - 2 NATS!!
  18. Nats bases juiced no outs!! Church up.
  19. Switching to Brewers.... 3-2 Nats, runners on 1st & 2nd, no outs! Come on Nats.
  20. Len speculated that he felt wierd/uncomfortable from the wind-up, so he went to the stretch. He pitched a 1-2-3 5th from the stretch. What's his fastest pitch been today?
  21. We'll have one more shot with our good hitters, and that's it. God I love having a 7,8,9 gaping black hole in our lineup.
  22. I'd be shocked if Milw drops 2/3 to the friggin Nats, they'll win today.
