  1. I assume he's observing him more than just during the game when he's in center field. Is he going to the bullpen and catching his third day side session then? Either way, it's definitely a nice compliment, I just thought it might need to be tempered a bit given it didn't come from someone on the coaching staff or one of the catchers.
  2. Given the choice, I'd rather they skip Dempster. He hasn't thrown this many innings in years. Also, I like the compliment from Edmonds, but at the same time wonder how much of a difference in stuff he can tell from center field. He's been out there in every one of Gallagher's starts except two, and one of those he wasn't on the team yet.
  3. The Angels have 2 regulars with an OBP above .335. Gimme Boston if their pitching is reasonably healthy.
  4. I agree. Harden doesn't come with a big contract, so if you deal for him and he gets hurt, you're only out the players. If he is healthy, he's outstanding and you have him through 2009 when you can make a better decision on if you want to invest in his health or take the draft picks. If he completely falls apart, you don't even have to pay him next year(although the 7 million option isn't a terrible gamble for someone of his abilities).
  5. Mitchell is from Texas. In the scouting video MLB.com had, he wasn't consistently hitting 90.
  6. 8th best hitters park, and we haven't had too many games with the wind blowing out yet.
  7. Marmol has thrown twice in the last 5 games, neither outing going over 15 pitches, I think it's good to go to him when Marquis starts losing effectiveness. Consider him the Rowengartner to Marquis's Steadman.
  8. Seriously? Dead serious. Was his pitch count even at 85? 89
  9. Just imagine a good commercial in it's place. "When it comes to Mike Wallace, the story ends with me putting him in the wall."
  10. Also noticed by going to the BR leaders page: Theriot leads MLB in CS Johnson is tied for 3rd in MLB in HBP Theriot is 2nd in MLB in singles
  11. 12th GIDP on the season for D Lee. Makes him #2 in the NL Who is #1? I'm lazy. hah, it's Loney
  12. Wieters is 22 and in High A, I'd certainly hope he would hit that well. There are currently 10 guys age 22 and younger with an OPS over .900 in High A. To compare, there are 7 players 18 and younger with an OPS over .513 in Low A.
  13. That tackle from behind on Adu at the end was awful, how do you not book him, even in extra time.
  14. details please? I had to flip back to Cub game
  15. Geez, does anything good happen when Mastroeni touches the ball? Adu gets a half hour, make something happen.
  16. yeah, killing thousands of natives is quite presidential. a man of honor! I said he was a badass, I didn't say he was a good person http://www.cracked.com/article_15895_5-most-badass-presidents-all-time.html LOL. Great stuff in there: Okay, my favorite part, then I'm done with the president stuff.
  17. The commentary makes it for me. "That's right. In a life rich with murdering people for little-to-no reason, Jackson's only regret was that he didn't kill quite enough people. People like Calhoun who, it should be noted, was Jackson's vice president."
  18. yeah, killing thousands of natives is quite presidential. a man of honor! I said he was a badass, I didn't say he was a good person http://www.cracked.com/article_15895_5-most-badass-presidents-all-time.html
  19. That's as far as Lee has hit a ball, fair or foul, in at least a week.
  20. If the zone is this big for Marquis, he might actually last 6 innings today.
  21. awful strike zone in that Loretta at bat, two of those called strikes were not strikes
  22. haha, that is ridiculous Is there any indication how signable he'll be?
