  1. some teams current uniforms look like retro uniforms.
  2. is this like the channel 10 auction? i have seats in the loge diamond box, row 3, home plate side of brewers dugout.
  3. what else besides stats would you use to prove a point in baseball terms? length of service/seniority? team leadership? stats in large measure determines a baseball players salary, especially after free agent eligible. read the box score--hello, it's stats. offensive stats, defensive stats........... all the stats together get analyzed and then some. look at some of the stats available after the "money ball' era has started. especially with pitchers since they dont steal bases, drive in runs, etc. then there are splits-again stats. wins are an important stat, but not the only one.

  7. is marquis grissom still playing? or franklin stubbs? or sean berry? c'mon melvin you can do a lot better than this.
  8. what about all the training, doctors, nutrition, video,etc. it is interesting though. maybe they don't last as long because of the more extensive scouting, film work, type of pitches, ... here is a link that shows innings leaders in the al and nl for a few years back. this might make an interesting thread. we could go back to 5 man pitching staffsif we hired the guys from the 1890's--how much money would a 600 inninings pitcher per year make? www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/IP_leagues.shtml (pared back nested quote --1992)
  9. I am still wondering why we would need to limit his innings. Increasing his innings by 30 over last year would put him at 218 innings max. a 30% increase would put him at 244 innings. I think even with the playoffs he wouldn't go over 244 innings. thats old school. it's interesting to go back 15 years or more and see how many pitchers went 250-300 innings or more for many consectutive years in a row with no arm problems. look at stats for nolan ryan, seaver jenkins, early clemens, carlton, etc. you'd think with all the trainers, exercise, medical, drugs, that todays pitchers would be a whole lot more durable.far from it. i'd love to hear some reasons why pitchers today pitch fewer innings and are more fragile. crazy (train).
  10. too funny--him and zambrano. there is a new one out now called 'rock band' where it combines guitar hero with electronic drums, bass , and vocals. same format as guitar hero but with 4people. they are actually having competitions with this in california. this better stay out of MLB clubhouses or the whole team may end up on the DL.
  11. ok blazer, just say getting warmer or getting colder-- riding a skateboard being pulled by a car flying in a mountain wingsuit trying out for the x-games washing ned yost's car hauling equipment for my band playing guitar hero with his feet
  12. hey anikin--this could happen cappy returns to early 2007 form suppan has an above average year and earns his money sheets stays healthy gallardo continues his impressive start villy has breakthrough year if the pieces fall into place--which they do sometimes-this could be a top 5 rotation in all of MLB
  13. if parra was a proven, healthy lefty innings eater cappy would probably have been traded. parra has not, so cappy gets another chance. if he starts out poorly--1-5 with an era over 5.30 and is wild--to the pen and spot starter for him. i expect a nice bounceback season. he prepares as well as anyone. cappy, suppan, and bush all had down seasons last year and yet cappy gets hammered on the most. (in fact with estrada gone they should all get better). cappy also brings some other things to the table most starters do not--he can put the ball in play as a batter. he has a great pick off move to hold runners. he is a great athelete and fields his position.
  14. sic--that should say, heeellpppp...............i'm melting (down), i'm melting (down)....................
  15. heelllpppp...........i'm melting, i'm melting...............
  16. good for this team. i always wondered why a 2 time WS winnig team from a major city didn't draw better. hope this helps. there is a big population in s.fla., and with good weather all year/spring training facilities, you'd think a big baseball fan base should exist. PLUS-another dome in MLB. (removed nested quote; post stands on its own --1992)
  17. was that with susan surandon?
  18. who wants to bet that we don't have the equivalent of the packer girls happen at miller park this year? after all the 'packer girls' are much closer to nfl cheerleaders than the "st. mary of the holy cross debate team from appleton" that the packers march out as nfl cheerleaders. a liitle off thread-sorry i like cheerleaders. (pared back nested quote --1992)
  19. i agree with his these projections for AL west and NL west only. AL east goes to boston with superior pitching in the toughest division in baseball. bos-98 wins ny-91 tor-88 tb-80 AL central to detroit in a runaway. det-100 cle-88 NL east- philly is for real. mets-96 phi-92 atl-84 NL central-most improved record by division in all of MLB (reds and pirates less boring than last year) AND no wild card from this division. brewers- 88 cubs-84 astros-82 cinncy- 81 pitts-79 cards-68 so--put it in stone, this a guaranteed lock--mortgage the farm. the brewers are 'flying high again'. now for postseason projections.............
  20. well said adam--yost blew that situation. i am not a yost fan--his misdeeds have been well chronicled, and i think he should have been fired. his 5 years as manager should have taught him a lot by now. but i need to point out at this early point in the preseason, a possible awakening occurring for ned. some of the limited comments coming from him seem to indicate an awareness that he did some wrong things in the past, esp. last year. this is strengthened by the fact that we were in a position to do something he has never been in--win your division. and after being in first place for so long, he realizes he blew it--thus perhaps a bit of humble pie (i know a couple guys in that band too) and something like 'you dont know what you got til it's gone'. i'm sure it's been nawing at him all offseason. mccarthy of the packers seem to be a bit quicker in learning his trade. i only hope yost has turned the corner and is a bit more on top of his game with a smart intelligent style, as opposed to the stubborn i'm never wrong approach he seemed to project in the past. (pared back long quote --1992)
  21. i agree he should be traded. hi career era is almost 5.00, and that is all in the NL. his numbers across the board are average. so you're right, get what you can for him. actually i'm not sure why he was not tendered based on what he may return--i guess DM figures someone will take him. our team has improved pitching quite a bit--he might have ended up in the bullpen if we hadn't signed riske, torres, gagne. or he might still if DM cant trade him. i dont see a $3mil+ guy like him in the minors.
  22. nice job ryan braun. i'm sure alot of well paid atheletes do charitable things like this--great to see. perhaps this is the offset to the greed in the game. newsflash today---------c.c. sabathia cuts off talks on 4 year $68 mil extension from indians.
  23. hey-i know a couple of guys in that band.
