  1. With the exception of everything you said here, I agree. Even mired in his worse slumps, Soriano should never be bunting. For one, the resources needed to teach him to bunt can be much better used elsewhere in his game or with other players. Secondly, and most importantly, if Soriano is up with a runner on, the minute chance he gets a hold of one and puts multiple runs up with that appearance outweighs any benefit of a productive out in any situation, really. The only time a bunt is acceptable, IMO, is to avoid a dp with the pitcher up or the 8 hitter to be followed by a PH. The "manufacturing runs" philosophy is truly an awful one, even for a struggling offense.
  2. Well said. HAHAHAHAHAH thanks for that
  3. lol ssr. larhur is a caricature of himself at this point
  4. I think it's funny that the only guy in the picture who appears to have a problem with this is wearing the tired, ignorant fukudome [expletive] on his head. We suck
  5. The problem I have with it is that it reads like an endorsement of steroid use. The "I did it because it made me feel like a monster and I'd do it again" quote doesn't send the best message to young people.
  6. yeah.... that could be a problem. :wink: I'm just breakin balls today
  7. Woah, now there is an even more egregious grammar error to harp on Methinks your priorities are a little askew, Beertown.....but I AM curious. My error was? I don't make it a priority unless it's really bad. Your spelling of "reiterate" isn't even phonetic (nor, I admit, is it a grammar error). Anyway, I think maybe Laveranues Coles' parents taught you how to spell
  8. Woah, now there is an even more egregious grammar error to harp on
  9. Pedro's career numbers blow the mind. Let's remind him that it's no longer 2002
  10. Tiger's 3rd shot on 16 last Sunday might be one of my favorite shots of the year. Especially given what Paddy did when given two chances at the same shot. 180-yard 8-iron, give me a break
  11. You can't argue with Peavy ... he's proven. Rios is definitely a risky move, IMO. I'm surprised the posters on WSI and Soxtalk aren't talking more about the risk. They are almost universally hailing Kenny for this. Really? REALLY?!
  12. I love when bad writers tell me what I should feel about things
  13. Why does Hendry like Gorzelanny better than Marshall for the rotation? I'm afraid all this is going to do is continue to allow Lou to misuse Marshall.
  14. Um... He's not from Mexico. And what does interational mean? Really, guy?
  15. If "over slot" meant anything besides "a price that Selig thinks is too high for player A," then, well...this would still be stupid.
  16. The most irritating thing about those twitter posts is that all that venomous, uninformed nonsense is endearing him to Sox fans everywhere
  17. I could care less about his ego. The problem is that he's ten times the baseball announcer than anyone in the Cubs booth, both the TV and radio side. I don't want to be friends with him, I just want a quality baseball broadcast. Why is your opinion always wrong? Beat you
  18. I'm fine with the current TV booth but Stone's still a great analyst, IMO. I just ignore the whole 'big ego' point because almost everyone involved in professional sports has an attitude like that. Stone's knowledge of the game is below average. This precludes him from being a good analyst.
  19. Arnie, what's it like to always be wrong? Stone brings nothing to the table, man
