17 Seconds

mccormick is a bitch

the first one was a love tap. the second one was unneccessary and drew the penalty

and then he acts like he did nothing wrong

good job MORON

yep, definitely going to blow the 4th seed.

If you lose an edge, you lose an edge, what are you gonna do? he lost an edge because he was trying to do his stupid little spinorama for no reason

yeah that was a bit much

Where did you see that he turned down 7 mil? I was under the impression that he was having a hard time finding teams with interest.

so has soriano i don't like paying 18 mil a year for a power hitter who can't bat in the middle of the order and can't stay on the field

Low risk high reward. Nobody is saying he should give him a large amount of money. At this point he'd likely come very cheap. What would it hurt?

I wouldn't take Arod second even if he was healthy Not a fan of guys who put up big numbers? Come on. You can take a couple other guys at 2 that have roughly the same chance of matching or exceeding the value of a healthy ARod. Almost anyone drafted in the first round will put up big numbers (barring injury, complete collapse, etc). Who you take with the 2nd pick would primarily be driven by your draft strategy. I don't know, if there is still a guy like Arod left in the second round (barring it being like a 10 player league) I would most definitely take him, especially if he's healthy. Even on a 'down' year for him (like last year) he still put up 35HR and 100+RBI with a great OBP. i was talking about second overall pick, not round

I wouldn't take Arod second even if he was healthy Not a fan of guys who put up big numbers? or i just don't think arod is the second best fantasy player

well there's one other possible reason That he is losing his sight and doesn't realize it? no

Those are some cloggy bases. same with ortiz and manny

well there's one other possible reason

i like professional hats for grown men

dear bob, don't do that

Not with the Cubs he wasn't. in 04 he was

He might be "healthy", but Milton Bradley is healthy every offseason too. The problem is staying healthy. Still though, I'd imagine you'd be able to get him extremely late in drafts, so it's worth a shot..... as long as walks are somehow taken into acocunt in the scoring (BB, OBP, OPS). When he's on the field he's really good.

need proof plz

I'm almost embarrassed to say how low he fell in my draft. Everyone was talking about how he wouldn't last more than a few weeks and avoided him like the plague. Every year Albert Pujols is suffering from some sort of nagging injury that might either put him on the DL or hinder his performance and it never does. Didn't he have plantar fasciitis 3 or 4 years ago? Isn't that would ended McGwires career? He ended up stealing 16 bases the next year after it was known that he had this foot injury I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but each year he has some sort of injury that's going to halt his production or slow him down a notch and it doesn't. Has anyone ever thought that maybe these are just fake reports released by the Cardinals so other teams think it's okay to pitch to him, otherwise he'd just get the Barry Bonds treatment? Does that sound ridiculous? Yes... but every time I hear about a potentially damaging offseason Albert Pujols injury, I call B.S., and sure enough each year, he's MVP caliber. Why is that? For the record, I know it's not true and this sounds remarkably stupid, but it ticks me off to hear people act like Pujols' reign of terror is coming to an end with an injury that no one could've ever noticed form the way he played and produced. Always in the offseason, and always referencing the season before when he was playing with the injury and the next one could be a huge down year. Really? An injured elbow in a season where he put up a .357 average and 37 home runs. Yeah, okay. Sure. I don't think people were ever afraid of the injury hurting Pujols' production. They were afraid of him getting hurt and missing time. TJS was widely speculated.

I wouldn't take Arod second even if he was healthy

I'll go with your responses to the lefthanded comments and the sarcastic overreactions to seemingly unalarming injury news. that's the first time i've heard him respond to one of those

they wouldn't move teixeira to 3rd, and even if they did.. they'd just use swisher at 1st.

storming the court was a lot of fun 8-[
