  1. That offer has so much talent. LaPorta and Gamel are pretty much locks to at least hit in the bigs, and Parra should be a solid 3 if he stays healthy. That right there is a good offer, and IF Jeffress stays out of trouble and pitches up to his talent level, you probably have a top end starter or elite closer. Was Arizona's offer really that good? I'm all for signing Derek Lowe in the offseason. I know he's been good out west, but I just can't believe he's been out there 4 years already. I wonder if something like 3/42 would get it done?
  2. SeriesFinale- Is that a Stone Roses shirt I see? If so, very cool.
  3. My good friend had this same car. Brings back a lot of memories. That 3800 engine GM makes is about the best thing they've accomplished. He attempted a lot of burnouts with that car. I had a 94 Nissan Altima. Reliable car.
  4. With his velocity decreasing pretty much ever since he broke into the bigs, you'd have to think something is wrong with him. He certainly has pretty sloppy mechanics. The sooner he goes under the knife, the better.
  5. Sounds like something from 'Dexter'.
  6. The only things Hernan is better at than Weeks is fielding and making contact. And out of those two, only really fielding is important. Weeks' OBP would crush Hernan's at this level. His OBP is .333 right now while he's yet to get on a hot streak and has generally ran into poor luck so far.
  7. I guess what I don't understand is why a bottom feeder team doesn't claim him, with their sights actually being on Turnbow or McClung as a reclamation project. Turnbow especially could net a decent prospect at the deadline if he has a good couple month stretch. Surely, their has to be worse big league pitchers than Turnbow and McClung.
  8. Maddux has been rocking the Zappa facial hair all season. When he's got short hair, he actually kind of looks like him. http://www.sleazeroxx.com/rip/frankzappa2.jpg
  9. Wow. How could Dave Bush not get claimed.
  10. Yeah this is getting pretty comical. It's the same 'song and dance' every year. Packer fan has his draft board (LOL) and doesn't see TT's pick on it so it must be a bad pick. At the end of that players first year, said fan is giving the player praise and figures Thompson must actually know what he's doing. How anyone could complain about this years draft is beyond me. Love it.
  11. rluzinski- I have been looking at these pitch count splits a lot the last week or so. Outside of extreme hitter counts, it looks like just about every player excels swinging at the first pitch. Have you noticed this as well? I understand the importance of working the count and not go up there hacking like Estrada did every time. But even Estrada has a .900 + .OPS on the first pitch. What gives? Personally, I think that the Brewer hitters could benefit a little bit by swinging at that first pitch fastball. Like someone mentioned, Weeks, Hall, and Hardy are up there taking first pitch in a majority of there at-bats just for the sake of taking a pitch. It's early, but is it not a coincidence that they're 1, 2, and 3 of lowest batting averages on the team? It has seemed like all 3 have gone up to the plate with an 0-1 count already on there.
  12. Wow. Decent time at the game tonite. Tailgating weather was horrible and it started to pour on the way in. Yo with another really good outing. Man does Gagne look like garbage. There have been only a couple of outings that I have been somewhat impressed with him. Never would I call him dominant. At least he will only be going for saves a majority of the time and thankfully is only signed for one year. I had garbage seats but from where I was sitting it seemed like we hit a lot of balls right at people. For example Weeks stung the ball 3 times but only had one hit to show for it. A couple of others too but I don't remember who in specific. Oh well. I guess that's how it goes on certain days.
  13. This is true. Wellness Resources is a great place to order from.
  14. Yeah I have no idea why he likes them. Probably just so people can ask him why he likes the Marlins is my guess. He has a Marlin jersey that doesn't have a player name on the back. Doesn't buy a specific player because they are usually traded within 4 to 5 years of service time in the bigs. Haha.
  15. What really gets me is that all 4 umps are too arrogant to even consider overturning the play. What's sad is that since this play is in the first inning it doesn't get much exposure. Like you said Glennron, how Cox doesn't get tossed here is beyond me. On a side note, I love when Bill gets livid over a call. Like last year in the Braves series.
  16. You can buy a set of new golf clubs ranging anywhere from $100 all the way up to $10000 and up. It all depends what you want to spend. I'd say your best bet is to go to a golf store/outlet and let them know what you want to spend, your skill level, etc. They'll usually have a spot in the back to go hit and see how you like them.
  17. This clip is from the Braves v Nationals game earlier this week. Just a horrible call and goes along with what we've seen in some games this year. Not as dramatic as this example, but I think it's safe to say the umpiring is a problem in MLB right now. It's as if they're trying to speed up the process of being replaced by a computer.
  18. If he could be moved, yes he would be a 5 tool player. But as of now, he really can't field his position. I agree with you though. He is a joy to watch play and is one of my favorite players outside of the Brewers. Going to the game tonight with a bunch of Brewer fans and one lone Marlin Fan. Imagine that.
  19. It was a pretty entertaining interview. Letterman was the perfect guy to get Favre to lighten up and smile and even crack a couple of jokes. Haven't seen that Brett in awhile. Pretty cool that he's on the cover this year. On a side note I was pleasantly surprised Favre was gonna be on Letterman, rather than going to Leno who gets larger ratings for whatever reason that may be.
  20. I hate to come off as an elitist, but hopefully they won't find out about this site. A majority of these fans are so set in their ways. So unbelievably stubborn. I know this because all of my friends down here in Milwaukee are one of them. They're good people but I can rarely stand to watch a game with them. Apparently this type of fan who just started to follow the Brewers,because of the last couple of competitive years in Milwaukee,know everything. It's getting old real quick. They are the same morons who booed Bush hitting for himself last night, when Yost's hands were tied. They just have no clue, and probably never will.
  21. Thank you Jenkins. Outside of his diving catch, it's like he's on our side these past two days.
  22. Does Moyer have a really good move to first? He must. Although Bill Hall isn't the hardest guy to pick off to begin with. Giving away 3 outs on the bases is gonna be tough to overcome.
  23. I have black facial hair with blonde hair. I'd probably look just as ridiculous as Corey Hart. Villy and Corey are my favorite 'staches so far. Corey looks like he could be on a police report sketch on the six o clock news.
  24. I got around to watching Gone Baby Gone a few days ago. This movie, along with NCFOM and TWBB were my 3 favorite movies of the year. Really powerful movie that is the darkest, most depressing movie I can recall watching in quite some time. It's been described as a film you wouldn't recommend to a casual movie goer and I agree 100%. Ben Affleck really did a good job and proves he is better behind the camera than in front of it. I'm not afraid to admit that I've liked Ben Affleck since Good Will Hunting and I don't get the hate for him. He's a talented dude. Casey Affleck was really good in the movie (some people complain about his voice being inaudible at times, and I somewhat agree.) Amy Ryan of course was phenomenal. For me it's the most memorable performance by an actress all-time even if it isn't a lead. Ed Harris is intense as always. Not a fan of Morgan Freeman as he plays the beaten down, weathered old man in seemingly every movie. But for this movie it works fine. This movie punched me in the gut and was one that I was thinking about days after viewing. Definitely a must see.
