    No, you're not. People are piecing it together because some other teams have released their schedules.

    This thread merger went awry somehow. Sorry about the post order.

    bb123h, the May 1st thinger had to do with re-signing unsigned free agents who still weren't inked by a January deadline. But we don't have to bother figuring out who that might apply to anymore. It's gone entirely from the new CBA.

    Anything new to tell us bklyn?

    Peavey already got Leskanic (#00) Jeffery Leonard (#00) http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a244/casey1992/boardpics/bfnet/countdown%20thread/leonard.jpg Franklin Stubbs (#0) http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a244/casey1992/boardpics/bfnet/countdown%20thread/stubbs.jpg

    The story came out a day or so later that Cecil asked the ump to check to see if Cordero had removed his bracelet. Nothing wrong with that.

    I don't know if it'll make any difference, but Yuku rebooted its chat server about 20 minutes ago.

    I get what the issue is now. If you get a look at the posts in jaybird's birthday thread, you can see that the times/dates are in the right order, but that reply #3 should be after reply #5.

    I wasn't around to see this, but I just now found a thread at support regarding this happening on other forums. A similarly affected link, along with the Prince thread, now appear to be properly ordered. Note that when threads are merged, it could happen that times and dates are intentionally out of order. While the Prince thread had been merged, it looks like the merger has nothing to do with this morning's goof-up.

    I'm with pitchleague on this one. I don't think much is decided by the guy standing in for an ejected manager.

    Check your PMs.

    g.d. Please note that circumventing the cuss filter by using initials or abbreviations isn't allowed on the board.

    If you're on the boards and you think it's more efficient to click through this way, the salaries page, along with other salary resources, are listed in the "Contracts and Salaries" section of the Resource FAQ in the Major League forum. Additionally, because the forum portion of the site doesn't contain the sidebar links, the sidebar links are also included at the bottom of that FAQ.

    This comment was posted a few messages back: I don't take that as a criticism of the fans; rather, I take that as acknowledging the existence of so many people who've decided they can be pundits. I don't think we, as message board members, can 'elevate' ourselves to that level. And I certainly don't think the comment is directed toward fans who show up 35,000 strong at games. Many, many times, Ned has said that the fans have been great. My favorite was an interview the day of the canceled Fan Fest a couple years ago. Those of us on the board were counting the number of times he said "battled" in that interview: the players battled, the fans battled, etc. I actually do think that Ned has learned from mistakes; however, he does make new ones. In 2003, Ned used extremely set lineups, and probably did OK with them. In 2004, that practice turned out to be a fiasco. He changed course eventually, but probably much later than he should have. Last year, he decided on an aggressive baserunning strategy.(I mentioned Brady Clark above.) Many of us on this board feared that from the outset. This year, generally, the right guys are attempting to steal. But again, that practice should have been discontinued last year rather than being adjusted this year.

    I would think that deciding on the managerial position would be Melvin's job, too, JB. However, as owner, Mark has a right to speak up. If something he says publicly turns out to be a surprise to Doug, then there'd be a big problem. So far, I've seen nothing to indicate that the two guys aren't on the same page, so I'd have to believe that they're in full agreement on this issue, too. These are the two big areas in which I think Ned needs to improve: Statistical sample sizes, especially batter-pitcher matchups... Maybe we can hope that his explanations seem weak in this area because he doesn't want to reveal whatever is in his scouting report, but from the outside, this sure looks to be an area that can be improved. Realizing what his players can actually do rather than asking them to do what they can't simply because he perceives that skill as part of a guy's role on the team... Last year, it was all those base stealing attempts out of Brady Clark, maybe because he was batting leadoff. This year, it's using Derrick Turnbow on consecutive days, even when he's no good that way, simply because he's the "eighth inning guy".

    Even though I've moved into the Nay camp, I sure hope this isn't the case. If our owner starts operating this way, I'd start worrying about a rudderless ship. Mark's given Ned two votes of confidence this season. I'd like to think these have more credibility than most votes of confidence.

    Actually, 81-81 was mildly disappointing. We jumped for joy when we were 81-79.

    Isn't jaybird too old to look for girls?

    Yeah, really! http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif No matter what you have, it's always possible to get worse.
  23. 1992casey
    And I pasted the text into the link a bit later on. I bet Tom re-listened to his recording or something.
  24. 1992casey
    Interesting. I wonder if Tom edited. I assume you copied and pasted when you first posted.
