  1. + Gooz
  2. By the way, I agree with Laura. The only similarities I see are that Slowey and Gallagher don't throw as hard as most prospects rated similarly and have above average control. Slowey's fastball is better (but Gallagher has the advantage in velocity) and Gallagher's offspeed pitches are way better. Gallagher has a wider aresnal of pitches. And I think Gallagher's control will rebound after he struggled with it at AA last season. I think Sean will be a better big leaguer.
  3. So he was only out two days? Impressive.
  4. Woot!
  5. best case scenario, briggs signs a huge deal with another team, we pick posluszny and get the picks. i love briggs and think he should be re-signed, but a chance to replace him with a talent like pos while getting a couple first rounders would be pretty sweet. I don't see any way a team would be willing to part with two first rounders for Briggs (I know the Bears could agree to receive less, but I don't see that happening either).
  6. And Washington loses another winnable game by 4 to Pitt. Looks like it's only going to be 6 teams from the Pac-10 unless U-Dub does something improbable (their schedule: at Oregon St, at Oregon, vs. USC, vs. UCLA, Pac-10 Tourney).
  7. =; Only Hester gets to be ridiculous. Washington is right there against #5 Pitt in Pittsburgh, c'mon Huskies!
  8. Dunno about a bunch, definitely one divisional rival we know of that was considering taking him much earlier than where the Cubs got him.
  9. He had a spat with the UCLA cheerleaders last year in the NC game. Florida loses 83-70 at Vanderbilt. UCLA sweeps Arizona for the second straight season, winning 81-66 at McKale. Darren Collison with a career high 15 assists, one short of Earl Watson's UCLA record. Josh Shipp tied his career high with 24 points (it's great to see him have a huge game). Arron Afflalo came up a little gimpy after stupid Mustafa Shakur clipped and took out Arron's legs going for a loose ball late in the game. Arron better be ok. :?
  10. Peoria could have a really nice team this year. I'd be pleasantly surprised if Rundle makes it up to Peoria to start the season. But there's potentially a lot of talent on that team.
  11. Well, he was third round talent that fell.
  12. It's down to Neifi or Hank White. i hate you. The feeling is mutual. :)
  13. UCLA vs. Arizona at Tempe on Saturday morning. Darren Collison (shoulder), Lorenzo Mata (hip) and Luch Richard Mbah a Moute (eye) are all expected to play.

  15. Oneri (and maybe even Hendry?) were touting him at the convention. Gooz has his curve and command back, I think he's going to have a big year this year. Hopefully it will be in the big leagues and not at Iowa.
  16. Weren't you pimping Marshall for the past couple of years? Don't worry--my boy was Brownlie. :dumb: Yes, I like Marshall but right now both Hill and the Guzman who was pitching in Venezuela this winter are ahead of him.
  17. There are 21 million reasons that Marquis is penciled in the rotation (or is it 20 million?). And Gooz is going to be in on this competition between Hill, Miller and Prior (and Marshall won't be). You just watch.
  18. Samardzija's hair isn't *that* long.
  19. Yes, he went to Stanford.
  20. Just saw Kerry for the first time this season...my goodness he's lost weight!
  21. At least the 5th starter's spot doesn't get skipped a bunch in April so that Z's arm can get more taxed.
  22. Unless he's still going on about his ten year plan. ;) Oh geez.
  23. It's down to Neifi or Hank White.
  24. What is this in reference to? That fact that I've met, hung out with and spent time with David Price and still talk to him every once in a while. He's a very humble human being. He doesn't even like the spotlight. Maybe you could get him to hint to the Royals and TB that he won't sign so he'll slide to the Cubs. ;) I think Q would try to leverage Price down to the Red Sox in that case. :P
  25. I like Griffin and love Landry. I can't see JA trading up but I think Landry would be a great fit for the Bears' D (don't know as much as Nelson but Jerry seems to like former Gators). I fully expect JA to trade down. :shrug:
