  1. WOOGIE! Well, we now know just how powerful last night's win was! Welcome back, you've been missed. If you're in need of some flattery, check out just about every IGT since you went all Chappelle on us! http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif
  2. Beltran's was a 7/$119 deal, signed in 2005. I still think this was a great signing - but I am very partial. I really think Beltran is the best all-around OF in baseball.
  3. I don't really know what this means, and I definitely don't agree with it, but hot dang it made me laugh. Apparently Prince's teats are on both his chest and back...
  4. Good-night, Wisconsin! Thanks for those happy thoughts, ccbrew - whattapic! Whattagame!
  5. J-eff! I miss my boys areacodes & samwise!
  6. Supposed to be below the thread list & forum list (main page), but not there. Anyone else experiencing this?
  7. All this Aaron Rowand talk is making me ill. This is the same Aaron Rowand who has a career .343 OBP, even with this year's career-best (thus far) .381, including the two preceding years posting .321 ('06) and .329 ('05). Historically, he draws BBs not a whole lot more frequently than Johnny Estrada, but Rowand strikes out much more. His BB/K rates are awful. But what a surprise - he's having a career year in a contract year, when players are getting more $$ than ever. This is a player to avoid, who is much more likely to regress to an OBP of roughly .335 than a guy who will somehow, magically, grow his OBP the rest of his career. As stated, he's sure to get a fat deal. Let's let the CWS be the ones who make that mistake, please. EDIT: and calling Milton Bradley a "clubhouse cancer" hurts Cancer's feelings.

  9. Oh Nooooo! http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/wink.gif What a difference a day makes...!
  10. why should all teams have a fair shot at signing a foreign player? They don't all get one at domestic players. Oh, that's right - I forgot, we offered Soriano 8 yrs./$184 mil. but he just wanted to play in Chicago.
  11. I think the 'big bat' talk is referring to upgrading our production from the LF spot. Perhaps Jenks can, but I agree we need more over the full season from LF. There is no such thing as too much power or too many HRs. Trust me - other teams are going to go out & get better, and the Crew needs to do the same.
  12. Wow - thanks BHF! What a great, concise article. It's a neat insight into our new 3d baseman. It was a relief to see his non-slump come to an end today. When he hit that laser-beam double, I turned to my buddy and said, "Honestly, I don't believe that it was him to come up with that hit. Especially given his first three at-bats." How 'bout that first swinging K? Don't think I've seen anyone outside of Jenks go down on a fastball that far outta the zone. Nice recovery, Brauny!
  13. No one here likes baseball anyway
  14. Awesome link, Felder. Had/s me in stitches! http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/roll.gif
  15. http://homepage.mac.com/tkluysk/ens/resume/569_6.0196.jpg From this...... To this.... http://members.tripod.com/padawanjenn/LotR/rotk/gollum3_lrg.jpg Guess I'll call it the 'Reverse Smeagol Effect'. YYYEEESSSSS! [leaps around in circles - for joy]
  16. 'We need to upgrade our OBP': Bobby Abreu = correct 'We need to upgrade our OF defense': Bobby Abreu = horribly incorrect
  17. Post 2522 was a classic GSP. I almost wept. I will forever immortalize the following: Dude, pessimism is my stock-in-trade! Take that tool out of my workbelt, and it's like asking Vladimir Guerrero to go out there and draw a walk, or Britney Spears to go out there WITH underpants.
  18. Right in line with my first conscious thought this morning, FTJ. Capuano underperforms, so he's replaced. Vargas, same thing. Yet Yost continues to cost this team games, and he's still right there, as though nothing were wrong. His poor decision making, coupled with the bullpen's ineffectiveness (I love you SHOUSE!), have put so much pressure on the offense, it's no wonder they're up at the dish hacking for the long-ball so much. How big of a lead is enough for this team? Is 5 runs enough margin for error for the 'pen? Seriously - would it have to be more? To hear Yost call Linebrink's bonehead error "bad luck" last night just tells you how disconnected he is. Was, on the whole, the fact that an easy play turned into another run and extended the inning (wherin yet another run scored) "bad luck"? Yes - absolutely. But to say that Linebrink didn't make the play due to "bad luck" is simply delusional. He didn't execute, and screwed the lead he'd come in to protect. There's nothing unlucky about that, nor is there anything unlucky about playing to Jaque Jones's strength, and having it hurt you.http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/mad.gif The one thing I can tell you as a bright side, is that the Cubs have obviously worked out a deal with the devil. Satan is a Cubs fan http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/devil.gif
  19. Gabe Gross's appearance tonight wasn't an at-bat, it was an at-battle. I loved and dreaded every second of it.
  20. That comment is an absolute joke.
  21. Thanks sbryl, those backup 'dancers' alone had me in stitches. I need the comic relief. http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/frown.gif
