  3. I think the sentence following your bolded part is more telling than anything else Lou said. I wonder what, exactly, he's referring to. Yeah, that's a strange line. Growing up in Venezuela probably isn't the most ideal lifestyle. Is he showing up to Wrigley in a clown suit everyday? Please explain. I think he's referring to his reported all-night-party attitude there.
  4. This is definitely the kind of vitriolic stuff SSR is talking about. [/sarcasm]
  5. Sarcasm or are you serious? Because if your serious, then wow. Because you know, an average fielding SS, that doesn't get on base and can't hit for any power is so much better than a good defensive SS who gets on base just as much outside of PETCO as the guy we have, and can hit 25+ jacks any day of the week right.... Name - OBP, SLG, OPS, OPS + Theriot - .326, .346, .672, 72 Greene* - .322, .519, .840, 123 *outside PETCO Consider the source. This is not DeuceBaseman or Wrigley23. Your sarcasm meter needs some major repair. Where's the "sarchasm" guy when you need him? Oh and 25 homers in a night is, I think, slightly too optimistic...
  6. #3, though that's before he's added mph as of late and lost 25 lbs this offseason. Yeah, I really don't want to trade him unless it makes us much better next year. Roberts doesn't fit the bill. And could we drop the first-name usage when discussing our two young pitching prospects who we are actively shopping and who share the name "Sean?" Thanks.
  7. Probably so, but the bottom of that order makes me want to puke.
  8. i don't care about era. Double burn!
  9. Sir, you are guilty of not watching the games. Soto will win the NL MVP and hit 75 HR's in 2008. No one will steal a base on Geovany Soto unless they know what's good for them. Soto will burn down the house of anyone who even remotely thinks of stealing a base on him. Soto will have a CERA of 1.25. He would make it lower, but he honestly doesn't want "GOD" status in just his rookie season. Is it now time for Geovany Soto jokes a la Chuck Norris? This seems to have some potential, if you ask me. :D
  10. Link Gallagher and Pie? That would be a terrible deal. Horrible beyond belief. In defense of Rosenthal though (which.....I really shouldn't be trying to defend him, but oh well), the entire quote is just throwing names out there, not suggesting it's going to be Gallagher and Pie together. I think I found the the place that originated this dreadful rumor: Hire Jim Essian
  11. And the misspelling of "interested" is his. Link This makes my mind hurt.
  12. This has the potential to be a really, really good trade for the Orioles, especially if they can get a ML-ready pitching prospect in the deal. I'm pretty sure that one of the names will be Jeff Clement, as well. Incidentally, weren't we discussing the unattractiveness of 4 for 1 player deals given the Orioles overstocked 40-man? Makes me think that it won't be four players going to the Orioles, especially if one of them is Clement.
  13. Jason Varitek: .367 OBP, 122 K's Kevin Youkilis: .390 OBP, 105 K's J.D. Drew: .373 OBP, 100 K's David Ortiz: .445 OBP, 103 K's Just to add to your list: Manny Ramirez has averaged 112 strikeouts per year from 1995 through last year and has only had less than 100 K's in three years. He also had a average OBP over .400 and an average OPS over 1.000. Yeah, he's good. Is the state of the Hall of Fame voting such that they could keep him out for his k's and overall jerkness and ignore those numbers? I'll bet Woody Paige could, but would likely reconsider if he ever ended up playing for the Rockies
  14. Unless Hendry becomes somehow incapacitated for the rest of the offseason, I think there is about a 10% chance of this happening. I refuse to believe Lee is declining at first base, and Aramis' great defensive year last year will at least be repeated, as he's gotten significantly better every year. Not to mention the almost certainty that Hendry will overpay for some solid defensive second basemen to neutralize Derosa :evil:
  15. I'm thanking my lucky stars you don't run our team.
  16. Oh my God. A 800+ OPS from the catcher's spot next year would be incredible. Not sure PECOTA will project that high, though. And I will be very happy if Fukudome shows up with an 800 OPS as well.
  17. No, you aren't alone. I have been thinking that this is the worst month of the whole year for sports. College football is over, college basketball is not important yet, the NBA sucks, the NHL is the NHL and who gives a good [expletive] about tennis? This month is a joke. I went to a Marquette basketball game tonight and I still don't care about basketball. Ouch.
  18. I really don't mean to bait here, but I really liked the footage of Cobb and Wagner. I can't even believe you found that. Good work.
  19. If they get Cain for Crede, in any fashion, I'm going to crap myself.
  20. Their pitching is bad. Their defense is really bad. How does that saying go again?
  21. Like the Hutt. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joba_Chamberlain
  22. Just out of curiousity, which cookie-cutter parks came out and are gone by now?
