  1. I really don't know what everyone is talking about. Someone needs to pm me with details.
  2. There's some paranoid people in these parts.
  3. you're so cute when you're coy My neighbor when I was a child was an old woman named Coy. Actually her last name was McCoy, but we all called her Coy. Either way, she was like 70. Other than that, I've never known anyone named Coy. I surely never was called Coy. And please don't say I'm cute....I'm not gay, not that there's anythin wrong with it, I'm just saying I'm not.
  4. Swap Marshall for Gallagher and I might bite.
  5. I see Tuffy is still doing well across the drink.
  6. As much as I love Dunn, and I love me some Dunn, if they decide that the OF is too crowded and Dusty needs some vets, I'd happily take Jay Bruce and never pine for Adam Dunn again.
  7. Personally, I'd rather trade Marshall or Marquis (though, I doubt what value Marquis would have) before trading Gallagher or Hart. I'd also prefer to trade Veal before trading either of those. But, we need to improve the offense, so I don't think we can declare anyone untouchable. That being said, I really hope we don't trade Gallagher.
  8. Absolutely agree 100%.
  9. Link. Lots of quality GM's are stepping down.
  10. How many former Cubs/ Cubs farmhands have the Orioles accumulated now?
  11. Steve Wilson has done a good job with the amateurs so far on the Pac Rim and the Cub were interested in Kuroda last offseason too so iI think he has been well scouted. His scouting report says he throws a low-to-mid 90s FB, slider, forkball and shuuto. He has good command (0.99 BB/9 in 2006) and he had a 6.82 K/9 in 2006 which seems kind of low given his stuff. Also only gave up 12 HRs while pitching in a hitter's park. Sounds interesting as long as he isn't too expensive. Command translates very poorly to the US. Honestly, I'd look at the Japanese imports in this order. 1. Kosuke Fukudome (the power is a question coming off an elbow injury even complicates the power question more) 2. Koji Uehara, SP (he actually closed this season) 3. Hiroki Kuroda, SP (sits closer to 90 than low to mid 90s) For the record Fukudome's didnt lead the league in EqA this season (!) Welcome back.
  12. Bottom three all from the NL Central. Yikes!
  13. My team sucks. I'm in rebuilding mode. Most all of my players could be had for the right price.
  14. Except Harang is nowhere near as much of a girl as Prior, and has already had seasons of throwing tons of pitches on his arm. Besides that, it will be the same. So Prior is a girl cause he needed surgery? If Prior is a girl because of his injuries, Griffey must be a full-fledged woman with developed mammaries and full grown ovaries.
  15. I'm waiting for Reds44 to weigh in here.
  16. I'd love to have Bay in RF. I'd make an offer of Marshall, Murton, and another couple of lower level prospects and see if they bite.
