  1. hahaha http://www.saberscouting.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/the-beckhams.jpg
  2. I went back and read the article about it, it looks like Ethan getting called out is what led to the team being upset, but Cody Martin(who I assume is his brother) was the pitcher when the ump got drilled.
  3. Really? I heard he had a real good curve, but that he was 3 starter at best. I'd hope for more upside than that out of #19.
  4. ~.300 is normal, so for a successful pitcher like Rich to be around .280 isn't that bad. As for the LD%, Rich gives up his share of HR, and like you mentioned K's a lot of guys, so that might be part of it, but I don't think he was a significant beneficiary of BABIP luck.
  5. I think it's hard to say. Last year was the first time in 4 years I believe that they had played the game, and there were empty seats everywhere since neither team had sky-high expectations for the season. This year will be a completely different animal, so I don't know what to expect as far as ticket availability. I'd think one of the school websites or the whatever-financial-company-they're-calling-it-today dome website would be able to help with the group rate stuff.
  6. Please don't excite me with the possibility of Crow falling to 19.
  7. That would be outstanding. I'm hoping someone like Melville falls to us, if only to force them to reconsider Kelly(since that's who they seem set on).
  8. Mizzou just started selling single game tickets this week, although I didn't check the link to see if that included the Arch Rivalry or Border War since I'll be getting student tickets. Clicking around the Mizzou website a bit, it doesn't look like they're on sale. In other Arch Rivalry news, they moved the start time back to 7:30 this week to accomodate ESPN. Looks like it'll be the prime time matchup.
  9. Littlefield was good in a scouting role. He could help out in the advising position he's in, especially on a team that will actually spend on the draft.
  10. There was clearly something wrong with Hill, but calling him "an Ankiel" is definitely hyperbole.
  11. Yep, and after them you have to go back to 1999 with Patterson and Hinske.
  12. Does "safer" player generally mean "college" player? I know the Cubs have been burned recently on some early HS picks that didn't pan out (Harvey is the one that immediately comes to mind). He was talking in terms of health. With the state of our farm system, we can't afford to gamble on somebody reaching their potential and staying healthy, as opposed to just reaching their potential.
  13. The rest of Saber Scouting's mock is up, both guys have us taking Kelly. I didn't realize he was from Dunedin, he might as well get his Cub hat now. Kiley tried to project the sandwich round and had us taking Chris Carpenter. Not a fan of that pick either.
  14. We waited out Saito and beat him, we can get one off Hoffman. What did I tell you about Greene, siddown
  15. I can't tell if it's intentionallly trying to be bad or ironic.
  16. They better hope Kouzmanoff can drive in the run, because Greene might as well not bring a bat to the plate against Marmol
  17. ..... You had.....Eyre warming up, but you......left Lilly in at 108 pitches
  18. Is Sanchez wearing the exact same colors as Argentina in a pathetic attempt at a mind game like when Argentina clowned them in Copa America?
  19. Maybe the balk was that Lee wasn't considered to be on the base.
  20. That balk may be a good thing, we get Maddux out of there. Too bad they didn't try to hit away with Iguchi though.
  21. How many times have we grounded out to Greene? You can't hit it past him.
  22. Edmonds was worried about the wall, that wasn't all that unnecessary a jump.
