  1. Against the Marlins. That was awesome.
  2. I've brought it up to the other mods, we'll see what the consensus is.
  3. Hermosillo loses 9-4, box: SP L. Walrond 5.1 IP, 7 ER, 9 H, 3 K/0 BB, 1 HR, 10 GO-3 FO Culiacan lost 9-7, box: 3B C. McGehee 2/5, R, CS (1) - Casey is firmly entrenched in that cleanup spot :) Overall: Les Walrond (Hermosillo): 32.1 IP, 13 ER, 28 H, 29 K/14 BB, 2 HR, 3.62 ERA, 1.29 WHIP Casey McGehee (Culiacan): 26/83, .313/.387/.470/.857, 2 HR, 7 2B, 10 BB, 7 K, 0/1 SB, 6 E
  4. I'm pretty sure he was. I think I remember him being with West Tenn a few years ago. Correct, he was Cub property for part of 2002 at West Tenn.
  5. Tigres beat the Caribes 5-3, box: Tigres: SS R. Cedeño 2/5, R, RBI, K (3) CF B. Coats 2/2, BB (7) Caribes: CF C. Walker 0/5, 2 K (18) RP T. Atlee 0.1 IP, 2 ER, 2 H, 0 K/1 BB Leones lose 9-3, box: C H. Blanco 0/3, BB (3) - dropped to 8th in the batting order! Overall: Ronny Cedeño (Tigres): 4/18, .222/.263/.278/.541, 1 HBP, 3 K, 0/1 SB Buck Coats (Tigres): 16/64, .250/.329/.391/.720, 1 HBP, 7 BB, 10 K, 3 HR, 1/1 SB Chris Walker (Caribes): 21/86, .244/.353/.326/.679, 3 HBP, 12 BB, 18 K, 14/17 SB Thomas Atlee (Caribes): 10.2 IP, 3 R,2 ER, 12 H, 5 K/3 BB, 1.69 ERA, 1.41 WHIP Henry Blanco (Leones): 13/52, .250/.304/.308/.612, 1 HBP, 3 BB, 6 K
  6. I haven't watched the games as I'm in LA and there isn't any video online. Looking at the box scores and the game logs, it looks like he has successfully played all his chances in the last 5 games, not just gotten away with plays where errors can't be charged but he made mistakes. In his first game after his 6th error, though, he didn't even get a ball hit to him all game, so it's really been 4 straight good games on defense. But again, I'm not watching the games - I'm only judging based on game logs and box scores. I haven't read any personal accounts either from folks who've watched.
  7. Licey wins 2-1, box (PDF): CF F. Pie 0/3 Overall: 16/61, .262/.286/.328/.614, 1 HBP, 1 BB, 12 K, 4 2B, 3/3 SB
  8. His "remaining" value is quite high, I have no problem with the Cubs trading him if they get fair value. But the rest of your post is wrong.
  9. I think the Cubs, Rangers and other strong contenders will wait till the last hour too.
  10. Well, it looks like Jose Reyes has gotten into some games that licey.com hasn't posted box scores for over the past week. His current stats going into today: 8/29, .276/.276/.414/.690, 1 2B, 1 HR, 0 BB, 2 K
  11. Angel Guzman will be starting for the Navegantes del Magellanes come November 20th. The Cubs had wanted him to start in December but he feels he needs to start earlier to get prepared for the upcoming season. It will be the first time Gooz has pitched in the VWL in 4 years. Link (in Spanish)
  12. Tomorrow at 5 pm. Then, MLB will pass along the winning bid figure to the Lions (not the name of the team) and they will have 4 business days to accept or reject (so we should know by Tues-Wed of next week?). Then the winning team has 30 days to hammer out a contract with Daisuke.
  13. Mesa wins 21-4, box: 2B E. Patterson 3/6, 2 R, 2 2B (6), 2 RBI (12) 3B S. Moore 2/5, 3 R, 2B (8), BB (13), K (18) C J. Fox 3/6, R, 2B (4), 6 RBI (14), 2 K (10) RP L. Holdzkom 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 2 K/0 BB, 0 GO-1 FO, 12 pitches (7 strikes) Overall: Eric Patterson: 28/79, .354/.430/.519/.949, 9 BB, 10 K, 10/12 SB, 6 E Scott Moore: 19/75, .253/.364/.480/.844, 13 BB, 18 K, 4/5 SB, 3 E Jake Fox: 12/49, .245/.275/.327/.602, 2 BB, 10 K, 1/1 SB, 1 E Lincoln Holdzkom: 15 IP, 10 R, 7 ER, 13 H, 17 K/5 BB, 4.20 ERA, 1.20 WHIP
  14. I agree, it's a very small sample size. Grand Canyon is now batting in the bottom of the 9th, let's see if they can tie the game with 18 runs...
  15. I have to say I disagree with this. Threads over 30 pages should be archived and a new thread started. No one wants to read this whole thing and you end up getting repetitive posts. MOD FIGHT!! Not really...
  16. Adam Harben hasn't pitched since October 21st because of elbow soreness.
  17. That's because there is accountability for a poor schedule in basketball (it's tougher to perform well in the tournament if you have played cream puffs all season) while you can have a cream puff schedule and get into a BCS bowl in football.
  18. I don't think USC will be 11-1 - I can't see USC beating all 3 of Oregon, Cal and Notre Dame (even if all three games are in South Central).
  19. How was Thabo's ball handling yesterday? That will be a nice piece to add to his game, but I think it will take some time for me to trust him in that role.
  20. Yeah, elsewhere (don't remember where), I read that it could keep him out for 8 weeks. GREAT to hear Bradley will be playing.
  21. The odds of that happening are remote. Yeah, no kidding. The Lee issue has really moved to the backburner in discussions, but going into last season, he wasn't a real good bet to repeat 2005. Now, a year older, after a terrible injury for a hitter that ruined an entire season (even though people maintained it was largely harmless and he'd recover quickly), we might be looking at a guy who puts up a sub 900 OPS in 2007. Quality numbers, but not superstar numbers. His OPS+ was 177 in 2005, the next highest number in his career was 135, at age 27. If he's much below his 2005 numbers, the acquisitions will have to be that much better, just to improve upon the weak 2005/2006 offense. If Lee puts up his 2004 line of .278/.356/.504 next season I'd be somewhat suprised. His 2005 was so far out of line, and he's past the age where we can expect him to sustain that kind of production. But his improvement was due to some adjustments, not a fluke. While he won't post 2005 type numbers again, I can't see him regressing to his pre-2005 numbers, at least not in the next year or two. I think a .290/.375/.550 line is quite realistic. Adrian Beltre made some major adjustments in 2004. The key is to keep on top of those adjustments going forward and not revert back to old, easier habits. And, of course, there is concern over his wrist injury.
  22. Heh, fair enough.
