    At some point you have to realize that maybe it's not a good idea to move a guy for the sake of moving him. It's never been for the sake of moving him. Without YoGa's injury, which obviously isn't going to last long, there's no place to stash Vargas aside from the DL, as we can't move him to AAA.

    Counsell: 2011 Yes 1 K and one RBI double. ? 2011 Yes?

    One spectacular AAA year with absurdly & unsustainably high BABIP at both AAA & MLB does not a superstar catcher make. There we go. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif

    So basically they inserted a tube into one of his veins/arteries, ran it up into his heart, and fried off the problematic tissue with an electrode using radio frequency energy. Just like field surgeons did during the Civil War... http://www.lib.niu.edu/ipo/1997/iht4297388a.jpg http://www.powerweb.net/bbock/war/Amputations.gif

    Hardy has never had an OBA over 327. Thats very poor, not decent. He is also one of the teams slowest baserunners. I'll be happy as long as Hardy never hits near the top of the lineup. His OBP will rise nicely in 2008 imo. He doesn't K much, and has a good eye at the plate. I'd be surprised if he walks less than 50 times this season. Hardy is not one of the slowest baserunners on the team. Somewhere in the middle, iirc. I could not agree more with your third sentence.

    You're really just going to tread water, academically and professionally. Isn't that understood in studying abroad, though? You do it before your true profession(s) stand in your way. My general sense is that you're going to have a generally disconnected college experience if you spread it out over four campuses. You might not have as many lasting interpersonal relationships -- friends, faculty mentors, bosses, etc. Those things do matter, especially when, say, you're applying to grad school and need a recommendation letter. I don't mean to pick on you, RU Rah Rah, as you obviously are much more well-informed on this topic than I am. However, I just think this bit is nit-picking. His true friends aren't going to not care when he comes back (I actually have experience here... many friends studied abroad & we stayed in touch), and as long as you're a diligent student who makes intelligent contributions in-class, you shouldn't have much problem finding a prof. for a letter of recommendation. Besides, if you're talking experiences, Europe is one you simply can't get in a classroom. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Sounds the same to me, ftlow. I think that almost literally everyone has had this 'injury' at one time or another. Bent the nail back far enough to tear it away from the skin underneath & bleed. Painful, yes. Lingering... not really.

    A grounder taking a bad hop... I hope this will be minor.

    The last two years he hurt the Astros from a baseball standpoint--they had no choice but to play him regularly. But he more than made up for it by putting fans in the seats and selling jerseys, so whatever. How did this hurt a non-contending team? There was nothing for the Astros to lose, and as you point out, ton$ for them to gain. EDIT: To elaborate on end's point, Biggio's career line - .281/.363/.433/.796... as primarily a 2B. That's HoF-worthy imho even without the 3,000 hits... but Craig's smart enough to know how much counting stats are used in HoF balloting.

    I think Gagne will have quite a few 3-run lead save opportunities this season. The importance of that stat, and whether or not it can tell you if a game is/was close, is way overblown imho. I agree with the notion that blown saves (it'd have to be BS% for me) is a much more effective way to measure a CP than saves.

    Sounds right to me ESPN. You keep giving us the best baseball coverage around. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif point, bthurley. Obviously you have Joe Morgan on speed-dial.

    Sorry that I can't be of specific, vet-tip-off help, DannyK... but I'd have to guess that any Vet clinic worth its salt is going to be able to work out a payment plan with you. They'll probably just be happy that you're there actually taking care of your pal - think of how many neglected dogs there are out there! btw - "Oliver" is a sweet dog name.

    Can someone make the obligatory 'Biggio hit all his HR in the front row of the Crawford Boxes graph' post, please! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif biggio had OPSs of .727 and .666 his last two seasons with over 500 AB's each season... that's not exactly helping the team. But what were the Astros fighting for? 82-80 in 2006, & 73-89 in 2007. There's no way to argue that Biggio cost his team anything.
  20. TooLiveBrew
    The Hart Land That's a great suggestion. Obviously non-LF related, but still the best of the bunch imo.
  21. TooLiveBrew
    I refuse. I don't speak Canadiaese.

    There's a good chance one of the top college pitchers could fall to #16 that some may not expect at this point in time. That's just simply delicious! Would signability be the main cause(s) here?
  23. TooLiveBrew
    Well done, to both the Jims! A great read.
  24. TooLiveBrew
    I'd have a problem with taking Posey at #16. There's bound to be a much better talent on the board. GagneCY, is that pretty much the beginning & end of your issue with drafting Posey? I can understand that. BPA is probably always the best strategy... but for me his value is upped quite a bit by the position he mans. cj, is it relatively true that there's a large (or 'not small') group of very similarly-ceiling'ed college arms in the 1st/2d rd. this year? It seems it runs about 8+ deep.

    *GASP!* Jenkins is #10?! Oh - no, no, no, no, no... Just not right. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif Stupid Burrell...
