  1. Both games of Iowa's doubleheader were postponed. They'll make up one of those games tomorrow with a doubleheader.
  2. Neifi, save the team plz. a lot of it is weakening as it gets into the area, the air is still pretty dry and the main shot will come in later Their probably wont be a game tomorrow and possibly even monday Agreed. YOu can see the rain breaking up as it comes into the Kankakee Valley area.
  3. The rain is probably not going to hit Wrigley till after the game.
  4. He's insanely fast and going to the same school as other busts means nothing. I still don't want him.
  5. :D Me likes. I like Pettitte taking his lumps but after the Reds won yesterday I was hoping that the Astros (and Cubs) would win today. The Reds are much too confident right now for my comfort. I'll wait till June to worry about them.
  6. You just knew he couldn't pitch over his head for two consecutive seasons.
  7. http://image.weather.com/web/radar/us_ord_closeradar_medium_usen.jpg Any rain delay is over an hour away from happening - and even then, it appears the rain is breaking up as it closes in on the greater Chicagoland.
  8. Oh i wouldn't apologize for bringing up politics. If people can talk about "hot chicks" in game threads...or anything else off topic...then surely politics is fair game too. I'm just sayin'.. In reality, we should just be discussing the game and topics very much so related to the game in the game threads. But politics is a far more polarizing topic than "hot chicks" and really will take away from the game, much moreso than most any other topic.
  9. This comment coming from the person who beat me to him in the Roadkill draft. :D I very much remember the no-hitter; that series was going on at the same time as the Djaxx sweep of the Carolina Mudcats. I just hope he doesn't make 10 starts this year so that I can carry him as a minor leaguer going into next year. I don't think you're going to get that lucky, Tim. So far this season in 5 starts (28.1 IP), he has a 1.59 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, 31 Ks and 10 BBs. Not bad.
  10. Basically, what I am saying is Daytona could be the only minor league team not to get rained out today. :shock:
  11. It could dry out a bit by 7:05 out there: http://image.weather.com/web/radar/us_tup_closeradar_medium_usen.jpg EDIT: And we have a rain delay in Des Moines for the start of game 1 of Memphis-Iowa: http://image.weather.com/web/radar/us_dsm_closeradar_medium_usen.jpg EDIT #2: Gallagher and the Chiefs will have to deal with rain too: http://image.weather.com/web/radar/us_ord_closeradar_medium_usen.jpg
  12. :D You know I'm excited about that!
  13. As with any Minor League promotion, the idea is to get people out to the park that normally wouldn't be there. The fans will be there regardless of what promotions are going on. With that being said, teams have to figure out ways to get the others out there. Of course. I just don't think that a 1 in 130 chance of any money being paid out is going to achieve that. I don't know that the average person is going to analyze the odds of winning as much as you or some others would.
  14. I'm sort of curious how a team can sign a player pre-draft when they don't have the rights to the player yet. Is it only the team with the #1 overall pick who can do this? Yeah.
  15. Iowa (game 1): LHP Les Walrond (2-1, 2.57 ERA, 21 IP, 16/10) vs. LHP Randy Leek (2-1, 4.05 ERA, 26.2 IP) Iowa (game 2): RHP Bobby Brownlie (0-3, 9.82 ERA, 11 IP, 14/5) vs. RHP Alan Benes (0-1, 7.36 ERA, 7.1 IP) West Tenn: LHP Chris Shaver (1-0, 2.70 ERA, 10 IP, 9/4) vs. RHP Heath Totten (1-0, 3.86 ERA, 23.1 IP) Daytona: RHP Sean Gallagher (2-0, 1.50 ERA, 24 IP, 23/5) Peoria: RHP Scott Taylor: (0-0, 0.00 ERA, 4.2 IP, 4/0)
  16. Not his first one - he and Jonathan Broxton combined for one last year in the SL playoffs. Homer Bailey and Red minor league relievers came close earlier this week and ended up combining for a 1-hitter (Bailey went 6 no-hit innings).
  17. Exactly. Blast you and your holograms, TLR!
  18. When did Orel become a Joe Morgan clone in the announcing booth? :(
  19. And a walk. How dare Corey try when his team is already winning?
  20. Sometimes, you disappoint me.
  21. They lost 3-2, actually. SS Ismael Salas gave up the winning run and took the loss.
  22. Pointing out Raisin. He's the tip of the iceberg. 8) Let's go, Clay!
