  1. From the STL Post-Dispatch this morning regarding the cardinals/Oswalt situation: http://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/article_4cb78092-16c7-5743-a56d-5323f0df8191.html "The Cardinals, meanwhile, have tendered a two-player offer for Oswalt, according to sources. The offer was rejected earlier this week and included shortstop Brendan Ryan and another player." They really floated a package of "Brendan Ryan and another player" for Roy Oswalt? Must be one helluva second player.
  2. I'm sure it's been mentioned elsewhere, but it bears repeating: Soto's .294/.410./.537 batting line places him 2nd in AVG, 1st in OBP and 1st in SLG among NL catchers with over 200 AB (3rd, 1st and 1st in MLB).
  3. 598 I think BCB emphasized the wrong word. He meant no one will know how many home runs HE really hit. I'm pretty sure a cyborg was responsible for at least 150 or so. I think Bud Selig should subtract 150 and really piss of Yankee fans Is this in any way similar to smelling of yankee's fans (admittedly, also a vague concept)?
  4. Someone has to make an animated .GIF of LaRussa slapping the dugout phone as though he were a petulant child.
  5. Hit Miles in the face, go after greene.
  6. I was referring to the guy on here who thinks Jeff Suppan isn't awful My mistake.
  7. I was referring to his last start vs. st. louis: http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/CHN/CHN201005280.shtml 0.0 IP, 6 H 5 ER.
  8. Maybe Wells can record a few outs this time?
  9. Cashner disposes of the 'Stros 3-4-5 with 5 pitches. Take note, Cubs' starters.
  10. Whoever assembled this team should definitely keep his job. Probably forever.
  11. Joe Morgan: "[Hanley] Ramirez doesn't swing the bat like a shortstop, he swings the bat like Alex Rodriguez."
  12. HBP a bit above the elbow on the back of the arm. He wasn't clearly injured, looked like they were playing it safe. Thanks! On an unrelated note, Andy Cashner looks like my brother. Which is to say, my brother looks like a [expletive] badass pitcher.
  13. Can anyone fill in the details regarding what happened to Soriano? Gameday says he left due to an elbow injury.
  14. A second meeting with Riley?! No one backs out after a second meeting!
  15. Where did you find that info? I don't think it's a condo... this says it's a commercial building: http://www.emporis.com/application/?nav=building&lng=3&id=117530 It has suites. There was a listing for a place that was going for $250,000. "Suite" sounds more like an office than a condominium. And it doesn't look like a residential building. My search shows this to be the address of the Ramsey Lewis Foundation.
  16. http://loyalkng.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/nelson-muntz.gif "Some of us prefer illusion to despair."
  17. Geo Soto w/ 2 doubles and 2 RBI off a RIGHT-HANDED PITCHER?!
  18. Aram seems to be making better contact. The balls just aren't getting out/down. Some consistent progress would make me feel a lot better about his upcoming option year.
  19. Averaging just under 5 IP per start passes for eating innings?
  20. Lightning round: Who is the goofier looking J. Wilson on the Mariners' roster?
  21. Is it just me, or has this baffling situation occurred rather frequently?
