    If the prospect of having 5 or 6 potential world series at bats being Fontenot/Ward/Edmonds against a LHP is too terrifying, then work Jake Fox or Jason Dubois onto the playoff roster.
  2. Transmogrified Tiger
    Seriously, after Headley I have no idea who any of these hitters are.

    "The patented 'Cardinal Pixie Dust'... get some!" Oh come on. He has a career .860 OPS, its not like this is really far from the norm. Since 2004: .930, .885, .868, .839, and now .888 with the Cards.

    Unbelievable, now God doesn't want Rich Hill to come back either.

    That was my first reaction. Blanton in Citizens Bank is not a good match. Away from home this year he's giving up a home run every 6 innings, to go with a 1.50 WHIP, an ERA pushing 6, and a K/BB pushing 1. Brutal.
  7. Transmogrified Tiger
    Perkins in his last 7 starts has a 3.86 ERA, 2.5 K/BB, and only 11 BB in 44.1 IP. He's hot right now, so there's logic to keeping him in there.

    99% of analysts clutter a broadcast with platitudes and flat out wrong opinions. Santo can add "feel" to the game by putting an emotional response to what you don't see, and for that he's better than the vast majority of analysts.
  9. Transmogrified Tiger
    They haven't brought him up because the only pitcher not performing well has a contract they don't want to eat. Smith's comments are right, if they were conspiring to keep his service time down, they wouldn't have let him start the year in the big leagues. I must say though, I don't appreciate this publicity when I'm hoping I'm the only one who remembers Liriano in my fantasy league when he comes back.

    Dunno. Looking at google maps, it's 2 miles east of where 55 and 294 meet, and is north of Burbank, if that helps.

    I can't imagine the traffic being so bad that you wouldn't make it in plenty of time to tailgate at Toyota Park.

    I don't really think DeRosa is a problem in the OF. He had a bit of a rough week there, but on the whole he's fine. I doubt there's a significant difference between him and Blake defensively.
  14. Transmogrified Tiger
    The same question becomes "Is there a reason we need both Blake and Johnson?" I guess Blake is better against RHP than Fontenot is against LHP, but on the other hand there are a lot more RH relievers than LH relivers.
  15. Transmogrified Tiger
    Blake would be absolutely perfect if he or Fontenot or even DeRosa could play SS. As it stands the bench construction doesn't lend itself to easily adding a bench bat unless we go to 11 pitchers.
  16. Transmogrified Tiger
    Well, it's one stat, and one that I'm not a huge fan of. Simply, Ichiro is not an elite offensive player, or even an elite offensive outfielder. And while he's a very good defender, that makes him far from a HOF lock. Imagine if he wasn't !chiro, he wouldn't have nearly the swell of support he does.
  17. Transmogrified Tiger
    He's still there, it was just a suggestion on my part.
  18. Transmogrified Tiger
    I'll just go ahead and quote our friend haltz.
  19. Transmogrified Tiger
    I can't get the link at work, but if you go to your fantasy profile at Yahoo, it should have a link to your team/the league from last year.
  20. Transmogrified Tiger
    Anyone with me for the following? Harrison and Vitters to Peoria, Vitters plays 3B, Harrison plays 2B with Opitz like in Boise. Rosa moves to the DH spot vacated by Bautista to Daytona, where he plays C/DH. Flaherty hasn't played in 2 straight games again, there's got to be something behind his lack of PT recently.
  21. Transmogrified Tiger
    Are you legitimately making this argument? First things first, what SSR said. Second, BP's fielding metrics are garbage. Third, before Ichiro's arrival, Manny Ramirez had 6 consecutive full seasons, SIX, that were as good or significantly better than Ichiro's best season.
  22. Transmogrified Tiger
    Ridling now hitting .307/.367/.731/1.098 in 30 PA's at Peoria.
  23. Transmogrified Tiger
    Jackson does come out for the 6th, he gives up a pair of singles(one got caught stealing) and K's 2 more. 4.1 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 8/0 K/BB, WP Jackson(who will be 20 years old all season) at Peoria: 11.1 IP, 11 H, 3 ER, 1 HR, 16/3 K/BB
  24. Transmogrified Tiger
    I don't know if he's going to come out for the 6th, but Jay Jackson has dominated tonight. Lansing Top 2nd * Pitcher Change: Jay Jackson replaces Jose Pina. * Eric Eiland strikes out swinging. Lansing Top 3rd * Justin Jackson pops out to second baseman Jake Opitz in foul territory. * John Tolisano strikes out swinging. * David Cooper strikes out swinging. Lansing Top 4th * Matthew Liuzza flies out to center fielder Jonathan Wyatt. * Kevin Ahrens grounds out, first baseman Rebel Ridling to pitcher Jay Jackson. * Jonathan Baksh grounds out, second baseman Jake Opitz to first baseman Rebel Ridling. Lansing Top 5th * Moises Sierra strikes out swinging. * C. J. Ebarb strikes out swinging. * Eric Eiland strikes out swinging.

    This thread doesn't seem to have any hope of getting back on topic, so I'll lock it now. Congrats to Jimmy.
