  1. guys we almost got castillo, lester's contract was insane, and how can anyone give maeda that much when he's never pitched in america? i'm sure ricketts didn't want to have a 60million dollar payroll.
  2. career 2.6 fWAR as a LF (74 G, 274 PA) that'll be a nice story for him to tell his kids when he's retired (next year)
  3. he can have that tim wakefield contract that is basically endless team options for no money if he wants
  4. jaxon
  5. vote for a chance to win
  6. that pitch baez swung at on 1-0 is among the worst i can remember anyone going after ever.
  7. i don't think prospects usually say they are jealous when someone else gets called up. really just sounds like someone visiting the city for the day.
  8. come on guys, people going to races do not want to see a violent collision with a person. people are too small to see from a distance and they hardly ever explode. people going to races want to see violent collisions between cars.
  9. No. LAC, OKC, GS, SAS, HOU, POR, DAL, and MEM are all clearly better. PHO, DEN, and NO are probably better too. They are closer to the Lakers, SAC, and Utah than they are to any of those other teams ewing theory adoiiiii
  10. rog and davo are going to nbc
  11. i never want to play the rays again
  12. absolutely. even if olt only hits .250, i'm going to spend the whole offseason worrying that that means i should lop 110 points off bryant's projected average.
  13. no, the extra wild cards have less of a chance to win the world series, which is a feature, not a bug.
  14. It's pretty widely accepted that Soler can opt into arbitration once he's eligible. He'll only get paid at the level of his ML contract if he sucks. And you're obviously preaching to the choir about the value of keeping him down to gain an extra year. I guess I just don't understand why everyone assumes Soler will be up this year, but Bryant will be kept down to get the extra year. one thing to keep in mind: i never would have guessed that patrick mooney was super plugged-in or anything, but he was talking about the fact that baez was probably coming up this year all through july. he's been saying the same thing about soler as a september call-up all along. i am confident it's going to happen based on that alone.
  15. another thing that is important to take into account is castro's reputation around the league. if russell crushes and forces his way into ss, i absolutely want to explore trading castro, but a real part of me thinks that we might struggle to get fair value for him. all the more reason to wait to pursue that trade until we have everyone else in place.
  16. given the look on his face, i am certain cutler was making a snide remark about marty bennett after miller's second td there.
  17. This is what happens, Larry! This is what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps! love it
  18. kidnap kris' family and don't let them out of the sewer until he signs an 8-year contract
  19. yep. two big bars of pink interference across the screen Obama literlly jamming this breast cancer stuff down our throat well played
  20. mmmmmm back shoulder. super bowl.
  21. picture fixed just in time to see jay overthrow weems getting murdered
  22. yep. two big bars of pink interference across the screen
  23. defensive line is getting pressure every play. super bowl.
