  1. I'm going to believe it because I'm bored and the winter meetings are lame thusfar. Oh, also I like being disappointed.
  2. Because the Rockies need pitching and they have corner OFs all over the place. Jeff Baker lit the ball up in his short stint. Atkins may have to move to the OF shortly when Stewart comes up. The Rockies want a young CF and pitching to go along with Francis. If they can get that for Hawpe, they will trade him. Jones+Marshall for Hawpe. Hell, give them Mateo or Marmol too. Murton-Soriano-Hawpe. Mmmm.
  3. Z/Schmidt/Hill/Lilly/Miller-Prior That's a rotation I could be happy with. Now go get a SS and a CF Hendry. I don't like the idea of pitching your left-handed starters back to back. Specially considering Lilly and Hill have a similar style of pitching. Zambrano Schmidt Lilly Miller/Prior Hill That is how I would set the rotation. That's a good point, I didn't even think of that. To be honest, I think I'd prefer Hill #3 and Lilly #5 though, but we all know that won't happen.
  4. Z/Schmidt/Hill/Lilly/Miller-Prior That's a rotation I could be happy with. Now go get a SS and a CF Hendry. How hilarious (not in a good way) is it, that even after the two biggest FA signings come to Chicago, signing the top FA pitcher, and a middle of the rotation guy gets us halfway to our goal. Well, if Jones didn't want out so badly, I think we'd be a lot closer. As in only a decent SS away from contending for the pennant. I (for some weird reason) have faith in Hendry to fill the remaining holes. I'm cautiously excited about this team.

  6. ^^ That's awesome. The Stanford tree deserves more love http://quizbowl.stanford.edu/pictures/tree.jpg
  7. The UC Santa Cruz Banana Slug http://www.goslugs.com/graphics/Mascot/banana_slug_mascot_1.jpg My personal favorite mascot is always Big Red from WKU: http://www.mascothalloffame.com/images/2006/big-red-western-kentucky-un.jpg http://www.wku.edu/images/bigred.jpg http://www.topperfan.com/wku/pictures/bigred/bigred14a.jpg What IS that thing?!
  8. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2686799 Great news for the young prospect.
  9. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/hotstove06/news/story?id=2686831 Dammit Hendry. Izturis freakin sucks! asuipfhiasudpohfaisuj
  10. Before he was injured last year, the two years before that he threw over 200 IP, and here is his career FB%/LD%/GB% FB%: 33.9% LD%: 20.6% GB%: 45.5% I think he's a much better option than Meche or Lilly.
  11. http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/news/article.jsp?ymd=20061204&content_id=1750678&vkey=hotstove2006&fext=.jsp I'd love Maroth, what would it take to get him?
  12. It's ironic because the guy with the Wood pic in his sig is saying that ;)
  13. Oh well. I was really hoping to see Mad Dog part III in Cubbie blue for 1-2 more years. You don't mean that.
  14. Missouri is 9-0 as well. Damn right!
  15. I'm kinda pissed that this game is on MNF. I'd get the game anyways since they are playing the Rams, but instead it's wasting one of their prime time slots and I hafta wait until Monday.
  16. Hmm...good thing I'm a betting man ;)
  17. If we came out of this week with Schmidt, Lilly, and Lugo (for SS), I would be ecstatic.
  18. Screw this guys, let's just talk about Mizzou. :-D
  19. Honestly, I'm not a Rex fan at all, but I think Benson over TJ HAS to be the first move done, starting this week. Benson is a complete stud.
  20. I know this isn't the BCS stuff, but Texas is going to the Alamo Bowl to play Iowa, and Mizzou to the Sun Bowl to play Oregon State
  21. 7 central. Is it just BCS,or all bowl games?
