  1. maybe it's the pitchers. Maybe the Mets employ a slightly different camera angle. But I have yet to see a pitch over the middle of the plate, mid-thighs in this game. Everything has been on the corners
  2. nice hitting for Salome. He's still young, and adapting to pro curves, off-speed pitches, and movement. Wonder how he sees it so well batting, but not catching. Also, Tony Festa is right up there with Cristian Guerrero for me as guys who had 1 fantastic year, and disappointing since. He was one of my guys to watch both this and last year
  3. come on Rickie. We could use anything here
  4. *****, oh ok canada whisky, see Toby's post above (Team Canada). I've never seen ***** before, but I assume it is LMAO with an unacceptable word thrown in. Please, heed our warnings.
  5. Slightly OT, but is there an ignore option on this board? sometimes I wish there were. Okay whiskey, you have yet to win over a single friend. It's mainly your confrontational verbage. Try not sounding so angry, aggressive, or--frankly--obnoxious. We've all been newbies, so we've all had to learn about toning it down a bit. Just thought I'd give you a heads up. Some will shove it back at you
  6. Jenkins looking foolish again tonight. Probably should have been Hart in there. Although Glavine's made hundreds of people look foolish in his career
  7. Bwahhahah Glavine PWNS jibberish? Pig latin? good location by both pitchers so far. Amazing, since the ump seems to have a tight strike zone.
  8. wow, Glavine looking like a master there
  9. Glavine's control looks sharp in the early going
  10. I'd suggest flipping to the Angels-O's game. Anyone else notice how Salmon looks much less Canseco-like? looks like he's lost about 30 lbs, all in the upper body
  11. they dropped plans for a roof. It was something they wanted when it was supposed to cost 50-100 million, but not at the true added expense
  12. their's might be brutal, but if Weeks, Clark, and Fielder can come up with 5 or more times reaching base (combined) tonight, then the Crew will win
  13. A big reason for the piggyback last year was that they had some very young starters, and also a lot of them. Didn't they open the year with Wooley, Rogers, Gallardo, Hinton, Stanczyk, Parillo, Beresford, Barnes...basically, they had about 8-9 starters and some (like Rogers) struggled to throw strikes. This year the rotation is a bit older, and likely more efficient with their pitches. Plus, they probably only have 5-6 starters.
  14. seems like Inman is dealing right now. Good to see.
  15. I wonder what the orgainzation's veiw of Hendrickson is at this point. They must think enough of him to keep him on the 40 man roster. What's interesting is the user last night saying he threw pretty hard. If he could just improve the walks and the K:BB, he'd be on the radar for sure. In fact, this whole AAA rotation is exciting.
  16. He slowed down about mid track, took a look back at the wall, and then timed his leap perfectly. He caught it backhanded about two feet above the top of the wall and maybe a foot past it. good description homer. Also, Carlos didn't just leap and catch it, he jumped, grabbed the top of the wall with his right hand/forearm to prop himself up, and then went full extension with his glove hand to catch it. the actual catch--as homer said--occured at least 2-5 feet above the wall (because he was above the wall's height, since propped up on his right arm), and at least a foot past the wall. Among the top catches I've seen live in person or live on TV. Right up there with a sliding catch Alex Diaz made, and Krynzel's now-infamous grab at Miller Park.
  17. And Prince seems to be out of that bad first week. By the end of April, I think he'll be mashing the ball. Clancy, you mean bad 3 days? Fielder never was in a slump. Jenkins was never really in a slump. I was personally frustrated with just his look at the plate, where his swings were nowhere close. Even with Jenkins, he's had 4 or more hits in this series, so if that's a slump, then it was maybe 4 days long. Miller and Clark are closer to slumping, although Brady's soft liners are just right at guys. It's not like he's weakly grounding out to SS. They'll start dropping. Taking 1 of 3 is what most of us expected. Good to get it...Thank You Carlos. Saved the game twice in the 10th, now saving it in the 11th.
  18. And as far as the Clark steal goes - I thought it was a dumb idea to send him, but he beat the throw. Miles put his foot down right where Clark's hand was headed so he missed the bag. That's why he was thrown out. thanks Homer, good to see someone else saw it. He beat it by a couple steps, he just couldn't reach through Miles' shin.
  19. two fantastic catches there by Lee. Way to keep it alive...now for a homer
  20. wow...Carlos took a homer away...3 feet over
  21. almost wish he would have gone in foot first like Hardy does on steals, cause he would have upended Miles before he caught it, and would have had a chance to go to 3rd
  22. wow, tough break for Brady. Got the right pitch, had the base stolen, but the 2nd baseman's foot landed right in the path of Brady's hand. He had it stolen easily if the foot didn't land right there.
  23. actually, if Jenkins hits into a 3-6-1 DP or 4-6-3, you'll understand Yost's intent.
  24. 3 big mashers that can do more damage than some entire lineups. The Brewers have nobody in the same class as those 3
