Buzz Vargas is an awesome name.

    Well, Jim Hendry thinks he's ML-ready. I bet Oneri does too. Can you explain why you don't want him in the ML next year? Because he's not ready? As another poster pointed out already, he has worse plate discipline than Corey had at AA. He only has a half season at AA or higher, he'd get eaten up by big league pitchers. Sing should be considered.

    Scott will the start on Wednesday, Mark on Friday.

    I thought there was some discussion about how if it were a wall banger, it would be off the wall, not over it. :-s That's my thinking.

    How did Berg look? What pitches does he throw?

    But Vlad and Chone and KRod and Lackey! And I don't care what anyone else says, I call them Anaheim. I feel the need to root for one of my local teams, and I hate the Dodgers, and the Angels rarely play the Cubs, so I feel I can root for them. vlad is cool, if not terrifying. lackey is too ugly to be cool. krod needs to lose his glasses. chone needs to learn to spell and is crazily overrated, though not as much as he would be if he were slow and white. Chone is cool because of his name. And don't you mean his parents need to learn to spell?

    I like the Angels and the A's. I'm so conflicted when it comes to these series. Who should I root for?
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    No. Is there an emoticon that properly expresses the fact that Hendry is giving me daily migraines? Dear Lord is there are reason what so ever to put a 33 year old journey man 3B on the 40 man roster? With all the potential Rule 5 roster moves this off season why add McClain when its gonna pose a problem in three months? Cause they'll just take him off of it. No big deal. Just like they did with Calvin Murray last year.

    61.80 ERA - though I guess that last R was probably unearned. In that case, it's 57.94.

    Ugh, back-to-back awful games from the pen. :(
  15. CaliforniaRaisin
    Man, the Marmol injury sounded bad. I had dozed off and just woke up for that. :(
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    Marmol ends up giving up 3 R in that 3rd inning, 6-3 in the top of the 4th. EPatt walks, now he's 3-3 with a BB. Patterson now steals second, his 2nd AA SB. Patterson now out trying to steal third. :( Good news for Jaxx manager Bobby Dickerson, his house sustained no structural damage from Katrina, though trees were uprooted.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Marmol has surrendered 3 straight hits and 2 runs to make it 6-2 WT. Ron making a very good case as to why Ryan Theriot should have made the all star team as the UT. Dan Ugla made the team as both the 2B and UT because he led the votes in both categories, which does seem like a waste.
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    The SL named their end-of-season all star team. The Jaxx and former Jaxx who made the team are: OF Matt Murton 1B/DH Brandon Sing RHP Ricky Nolasco LHP Renyel Pinto So the Jaxx had both starting pitchers!
  19. CaliforniaRaisin
    Passed ball scores another, 6-0 West Tenn.
  20. CaliforniaRaisin
    Brandon Sing walks AGAIN. Buck Coats with an RBI single and it's now 5-0 Jaxx.
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    Jose Reyes with a 2-RBI single, 4-0 WT. Now EPatt singles to re-load the bases. EPatt is 3 for 3 tonight. Ryan Theriot grounds out to end the inning. After 3, it's 4-0 WT. Matt Craig has a solo HR and an RBI single.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yeah, Shoulders complained about it earlier in the season, asking for a new song. There was a thread about it when it happened.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    Haha, that's awesome.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    Derrek Lee could use a day off.
