    don't blame it on the refs. if burish wants to retaliate then get back in his face. don't slash like a little b He was slashed first. And how many time do they get the guy retaliating? All the time. It may have been weak for the refs to call it, but Burish should have known better.

    http://l.yimg.com/a/i/us/sp/v/mlb/players_l/20080402/6154.jpg?x=65&y=85&xc=1&yc=1&wc=164&hc=215&q=100&sig=LCwAE1TFB2scz.nmPVAI3w-- You think Soriano is worth 18 million a year? I don't think you'll find many people here who believe Soriano is worth $18 million a year, especially as he gets older. IMHO, nobody is worth $18 million. obviously, nobody should be. but if someone will pay it its "worth" it. that's the point. So Soriano is worth $18 million, Miles is worth $5 million over 2 years, and Marquis is worth $10 million. Yes. Welcome to baseball salaries since you've obviously been locked in a cave for a while. Torri Hunter is worth $17.5 mil, Figgins is worth $6, Sarge JR. is worth $33 over the next 3 years, Kennedy is worth $4, Suppan is worth $10 mil, Tejada is worth $13, Lohse is worth $40 over the next 4 years, Byrnes is worth $11, Pierre is worth $10, we can go on and on, and on, and on. You're just taking it too literally.... especially in the context of the discussion. Put it this way..... is it worth it to give Barry Zito 18.5 million next year?

    sure, in a full season he can be. but i didn't even say that at all. everybody's completely ignoring the marketing side, but that's a different story altogether. you're railing on the fangraphs way of player valuation and the open market way of player evaluation. got any better ideas? gut feel, hunches? it's hard keeping up with your fanaticism. Sorry if I think it's ridiculous to say paying 15 million dollars for Willie Harris or 10 million dollars for 81 games of an .865 OPS are good deals. We probably could have gotten Harris for like 12 million and that clearly would have been a steal.

    That's fine for non-fighters, but I hate when fighters try to play games. You're a fighter. If you're going to act like you're going to fight...then fight.

    There's no proof that it does happen. I don't need any proof because the argument I am countering has no proof. Actually, you do, since you're the one that called the other opinion "dumb". That's the difference. I never said you're for sure wrong and acted like my opinion was 100% fact. You did. If you're going to call people dumb you should probably have a better arugment than "I don't have proof but I think it's true so it is".

    is eager scared?

    is kane going to be good again this season?
  19. 17 Seconds
    awesome sequence there. make a stupid pass and then immediately take a penalty trying to save it

    So you don't think a pitcher is more likely to wear down if he throws more innings? 1. No a pitcher isn't more likely to wear down if he throws more innings spaced out over time. If the WBC's in January, that's another thing. It's not. And this is based on what? Do you have any proof? You don't think pitchers ever start to tire and lose a little bit of stuff towards the end of a long season? How can you act so sure that this doesn't happen? There's a difference between pitching in a game where you're actually trying to win and compete and a game where you're just trying to get work in.

    Hmm. Harden's shoulder issues were pretty significant towards the end of the season http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2009/02/piniella-were-going-to-get-it-done.html
