You are all wrong, this game did mean something... for my fantasy team! Hall's ugly performance and the win for Cordero has contributed to putting me almost out of reach of winning my playoff matchup this week. Sometimes I swear they are personally against me.
I saw on cbssportsline that Liriano would be limited to 60-70 pitches tonight. My question is why on earth would a number be thrown out by the Twins? Unless this is a ploy to screw up our strategy, doesn't this information help the Brewers' management the most? BTW, is it pitiful that I have a HD cable box (equipped with DVR) with a crappy old 19" standard def TV just so I can record these Brewer HD games and watch them sometime in the future when I actually get myself a nice HDTV? I also committed not to erase any of the last 4 wins I recorded on the DVR until the Brewers lose a game (I don't know what I will do when space starts running out). Oh yeah, I also promised my co-workers that I would give up all vices in my life if the Brewers reach 10 games over .500. I should just state I am hopelessly addicted to this team right now.
Doesn't the saying go, "Even a blind squirrel finds a nut." Just kidding, you are correct. I don't have faith he will do it again against Lidle though, I would rather have him face Madson. I think his chances would be better then.
Not to be cynical, but what is your point here? If you are not sold on Hall, but he is going to replace Rickie, then you must also not be sold on Rickie. I still think Rickie will be fine, maybe he is actually left handed.
I think I am most excited to see if Nelson Cruz continues his hot hitting and starts to make a serious push at a big league spot. I am holding back on all of the media available for ST so as to not burn myself out before the season starts.
I was just wondering if there is a good way to see the impact of transactions for an organization over multiple years. For example, player X was acquired by trading another player. Player X was then traded 3 years later for player Y and Prospect A. Prospect A was signed as a FA and the resulting compensation draft pick was used to pick up Player Z. There must be some pretty neat timelines over the history of baseball. Anyone have any bright ideas on how to look at this.
