  1. Yes. Maybe not at bat (but Hall's be horrible and Farris has had one MLB AB, so who knows), but definitely in the field.
  2. 1.000 winning percentage without Weeks. Therefore, the Brewers are better without him.
  3. I think it's on a timer or something, but yeah, they always seem to cutoff at the worst time. I once had one cut off on a 3-2 count with bases loaded and 2 outs.
  4. With his violent motion, K-Rod's curveball looks amazing.
  5. Just got caught up to live on the DVR. A couple things: 1) I think Prince played that Campana dribbler fine in the first inning. If he charges that hard, it's going to be a tough feed to Marcum, based on the angle and speed Prince would be moving. 2) No problem with Prince trying to score on Yuni's double. Both Byrd and Castro played it very well. Sometimes outs happen. It was just a good play by the defense. 3) Len and Bob have been fine today. They have nothing to talk about - the game has been kind of boring and the Cubs stink. I thought it was funny when they were chuckling at Marcum's fidgetiness. I hadn't noticed it until today, just a few innings before they talked about it. His uniform looks like he's a position player who's been on base every AB.
  6. Why? because pence is a better hitter, steals more bases, plays better defense, can actually RUN, has more years under contract, is 6 years younger, beltrans knees are gone, do i really need to go on? seriously, what kind of question is that? Ok, if you're going to take that attitude, I suggest you look up their stats and contracts and get back to me. I agree that Beltran isn't as spry after his injuries and obviously Pence is a very good defender.
  7. ESPN's strike zone is not good. Most pitches on it are strikes and the ones that aren't barely miss.
  8. I was thinking the same thing. I didn't see it, but from the descriptions, I wasn't thinking break. I was thinking torn ligaments and what-not. I'm also praying it's not the dreaded "high ankle sprain."
  9. I blame Braun more for his weak groundout with no outs. Killed us with Prince up next. I know. I can't believe the guy never steps up and gets a big hit.
  10. http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/6737/boothisman.gif
  11. I feel like (and this is just from observation) Casey's hands are decent and his arm is good and usually fairly accurate, but anything positive on those fronts is negated, and then some, by his statue-like range.
  12. Just finished watching on the DVR. Nice win. As for McGehee's decision on the throw home, yeah, he probably should've stepped on third, but it's a tough decision to make that fast (although one could argue that he should have a plan in his head beforehand). If he takes away the force at home, he can't afford a bad throw, even if it's one that Lucroy can still catch. Plus, there's a chance that Lucroy doesn't know he needs to make the tag (though it appears he was going to make it) and he could get blown up by Soto. So, yes, I think McGehee should have stepped on third, but it's not some egregious error or something. As for Weeks struggling, I will say that this game, his first strikeout looked like the product of a huge strike zone - it seemed to me that two of the strikes should have been balls. His last strikeout was just really good pitching. Say what you want about players swinging at "bad" pitches, but the pitches he whiffed on in that AB were just great pitches. Looked like strikes coming in, then dove down. I've said it before: whenever a player makes an out, it's not always some epic failure by him - often times it's just a good job by the pitcher.
  13. Yup, pretty much one bad pitch for Narveson so far. Unfortunately, it wasn't missed.
  14. There are websites and sections of websites dedicated to baseball. You don't have to rely on TV to get your trade news.
  15. Wow. I've never seen this before. The Pirates' Walker just reached out and hit a pitch-out pitch to protect the runner, who was going on a hit-and-run. Grounded out, but the runner advanced to second and just scored on a base hit.
  16. Any player who walked every AB would be the most valuable player in the game.
  17. The necessity was mostly because of injuries to Morgan and the inability of Gomez to hit righties. RR messed up the substituting a bit last game and Kotsay had to play CF for one inning. Big deal.
  18. People just enjoy getting all ********* over everything.
  19. He moves like he's in his 60's.
  20. Let's not exaggerate about Almonte. He only started six games in April as part of a RF platoon while Hart was injured.
  21. I was just about to post that. Crazy how big the gap is.
