  1. Walker against LHP this year: .239/.345/.370/.715 Last year: .352/.398/.582/.980 2004: .268/.423/.317/.740 We go get Nevin, yet Jones still hits against LHP, and Neifi is still at 2B batting second. Diriculous.
  2. He was doing horribly in AA at age 25, and there was an outfield logjam with Walker and Jackson doing well, and Negron on the 40 man. Plus the Iowa OF is stuffed with 4 people hitting well(Pie, Restovich, Coats, Montanez), and Fuld is tearing up High A.
  3. You think that Nomar could handle being the everyday shortstop? On another note, Kudos to Terry Ryan for that Castillo trade.
  4. Furcal's the one who ran into Lee.
  5. Last night they worked the count really well. Ponson had 97 pitches in six innings. Last night, they saw 3.72 P/PA, which is right near league average. Over the previous 6 games, they had been seeing 3.26 P/PA. Huge difference !! That is probably skewed by Womack's 9 pitch at bat, no? In a 14 inning game, I doubt it.
  6. Check the NSBB bylaws, Pirate mongering is a bannable offense.
  7. Woulda been fun to go against all you Mizzou folk. There's still time. A Mizzou win and UCLA loss gives us the matchup.
  8. All that and you actually spell bullion correctly?
  9. Dempster's going to walk Eckstein, you heard it here first.
  10. Brilliant strategy letting those guys get on so they can't bring Thompson back next inning.
  11. Nevin with a .000/1.000/.000 line as a Cub. Still no power :x I'm sorry, that was terrible.
  12. I HATE HATE HATE HATE it when Dusty doesn't bring in Dempster into the game when we are tied on the road in the 9th/extras.
  13. What exactly would the players union gripe about? It's not like it forces AL rosters down to 24 men, it's just different players that get the jobs.
  14. No Mickey Morandini makes the list laughably invalid. I also didn't know that Tracy Morgan played left field for the Dodgers.
  15. Who thinks rival GM = Jim Bowden? Obviously Wood and Prior's value is at their lowest, which is why it doesn't make sense to deal either of them now, although it may make sense to deal Wood at the deadline.
  16. Well, if there's one thing Pittsburgh needs, it's left handed starting pitching.
  17. I should know this, my uncle's a painter.
  18. ROFL @ Jamey Carroll
  19. So Pujols has been on HGH since he came into professional baseball in 2000? You're really making yourself look bad with this crusade against Pujols.
  20. To be fair, Levine reported this morning that Hendry continues to work the phones with other GMs. I think your comment is a bit speculative. I don't think Hendry's going to rest on his laurels after this deal, but Nevin's presence could be prohibitive to deals that could improve the team now and more importantly in the future(trading for Wilson is the textbook example). This is another reason why Restovich should've gotten a shot. He may have been marginally worse at the role than Nevin, but his presence on the roster isn't going to prevent real improvements from being made. Nevin is basically a poor man's Craig Wilson. I don't see how the Cubs could use two players who are so similar. Wilson can hit RHP too, and has value beyond simply being a platoon 1B/OF, it's exactly the point.
  21. Reading his yahoo.com articles, I'm not sure I want him coaching. Really? What's he written that you wouldn't like? (I haven't read them, just curious) Pretty much all of them. Some of them have been covered by FJM.
