  1. Now that we're down by a run, everyone is going to try to hit a 12 run homer.
  2. That took a perfect slide and pickup by Reynolds, a good throw by Reynolds, a perfect barehand pickup, turn, and throw by Segura, and a good catch, and tag by Ramirez, to JUST get the runner as he slid in. Unbelievable defense.......
  3. I know it's only a few guys, but it seems like Melvin has offered the (as you label it, the 'CC Special') about a dozen times. 5/100 feels like his 'go to' contract offer. I love this! The "CC Special".
  4. I'll rephrase. Can't go three days without a pointless article about David Ortiz. David Ortiz barking at a scorekeeper. David Ortiz cadillacking. David Ortiz is the 2nd best Red Sox hitter of all time, according to some old guy. David Ortiz Cadillacking some more. David Ortiz pissed off David Price.......on and on and on. All of it pretty much pointless....
  5. Can't go three days without there being another article on ESPN about David Ortiz's feelings being hurt. Amazing.
  6. I agree with all this (including the statement about a group of people who wouldn't have a consensus 100% vote about Greg Maddux). My point is, I don't believe the culture and mindset of the baseball writers will change by the time Braun will be eligible. I don't. Ok, my statement "Braun is not getting in" was a little strong. I should re-state that to "I have almost zero belief that Braun is getting in."
  7. At this point as in what he's done thus far, or ever? If it's the later, I think that's ridiculous. If Braun goes on to hit .305, ends up with 2600 hits, gets another 250+ HR's and has a few more big years, then I think it'll be far enough removed from his positive test and his performance after the fact may well be enough to merit consideration. And Braun is the type of hitter who may lose power, but I think if his health cooperates, he can continue to be a very good hitter. Palmeiro is over 3000 hits and 500 homeruns (both 'automatic' benchmarks in the past) and hasn't even SNIFFED election. Braun isn't getting in.
  8. Carp's got such a small sample size this year that there's no reading into it. He's still taking his walks and getting on base, and historically he's hit for decent power as well. There's nothing to make me believe at age 28 that he suddenly lost that. It's just a small sample. I say go get him.
  9. I didn't say it was close. I said it was closer than you think. You said it's not even 'within a universe'. Yost was.......awful. (Yes, I do remember the Shouse/Burrell thing.) But if people think Roenicke "isn't that bad", they're choosing to selectively overlook a lot of really stupid stuff that he does. Again, I'm not saying he's as bad as Yost, but he's really pretty bad.
  10. Absolutely not, & it's not even within a universe of being close. I suspect it's closer than you think.
  11. Ron Roenicke...... http://www.troll.me/images/jackie-chan-whut/why-are-you-so-dumb.jpg
  12. It's right next to the "Keep making your outlandish predictions here" thread. Outlandish? More like realistic. http://thegrio.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/michael-jordan-laughs.gif?w=320&h=240

  14. Was getting out of the car when Wright hit the single, told the wife "I bet Duda hits a homer", came in the house, turned on the tv, and it's 3 - 2, and I see angry nuns. Thanks K-Rod.
  15. Normally I enjoy a good pitchers duel. This one though, for some reason, it just is not exciting. It's boring.
  16. The reason for this is that the guys were patient, and worked themselves (often) into hitters counts....to when the pitcher often had no choice but to throw a hitter's pitch. Amazing what that will do for a guy.
  17. This is like saying that posting about a no-hitter can actually affect the outcome of the no-hitter. What we say on a message board has zero impact on what happens on the field. Zero.
  18. It bears mentioning that 1.) Tulo simply can't stay on the field. 2.) Tulo away from Coors is a pretty good hitter, not a great hitter.
  19. How often is 'sometimes'? And how big of a chance do we want to take? How much of that contract are you willing to take on? 3 million per year? 5 million? The last 5 years, including this year, Howard's WAR has been... 1.2 1.2 -1.2 0.8 -.4 He hasn't been close to 'good' for 5 years. The chances of him having a revival or resurgence are pretty slim I'd guess.
