    I'd be selling a lot if I were ATL or CIN. I'd sell if I were TEX, but with my eyes on '09.
  2. dadofandrew
    5.9 would be above average. I don't think there's a single team averaging 6.

    Zach didn't have many options left anyway. He may well turn out, but his ceiling has fallen to the point of it not being a big deal.
  4. dadofandrew
    I don't think he has been 100% all year until he rested. No one is very good at 70-80%.
  5. dadofandrew
    Every game is a near sellout up 'til 8/10...gonna have 14 sellouts in a row.
  6. dadofandrew
    LaRussa and Duncan just gave up on him. Nice move by CLE.
  7. dadofandrew
    The average start is between 5 and 6 innings. Effective 5 inning starts can certainly help a team, if the alternative is an ineffective 5 frame outing. Not many teams have Bush/McClung types at #5...they'd happily take a 5 IP, 2 ER start.

    The Olympics are one of the finest events every 4 years. It's a shame they interfere with the Crew.

    Vin used to simulcast on radio and TV. Not sure if he still does.
  10. dadofandrew
    Superb bench bat, and more important, depth in case of injury.
  11. dadofandrew
    When it is a sellout, many folks will not go out hoping to buy a pair at the resale area. The best situation for resale is when many good seats are gone, but plenty remain for "backup".
  12. dadofandrew
    Calling a pitch that is not a strike a strike in a one run game to avoid a possible situation may be the weakest excuse I've heard yet. Make the correct call and shut up. Worrying about a brawl instead of getting the call right...that would be cause for termination for me. It's borderline game fixing.
  13. dadofandrew
    All over the place. One strike on Prince looked 6 inches off the plate. Just another day in the bigs.
  14. dadofandrew
    They may need bodies for next year, if sheets and CC both leave as expected. Washburn is solid, but a huge notch lower than those two.
  15. dadofandrew
    Heh. Sounds like another example of a writer using "grit" and "chemistry" to decide who is going to win. It's all about runs scored and runs prevented. The rest is for the clueless like Tony W who tell folks who won. Other than the fact I did not say what an idiot Dick Justice is, I'm pretty proud of how this turned out. I wonder why the newspaper business is in such sad shape...hmmm.

    I'll take talent and playing the wrong way any day of the week. However, Gleeman did a study on this a while back and 19 of 20 of the overachievers were white, and many of the underachievers were minorities. Not exactly the same, but close.

    Unless you are gone for 10 days or more, you don't need to set up a feeding substitute. When we moved here, we got rid of all but one tank and I fed them once every 2-3 days...didn't lose one for over a year. Took 3 years for them all to go. Oh, and they will die. If you are prone to crying, don't bother. If you want a 10 year pet, get a dog.
  18. dadofandrew
    I knew I should have trademarked ROOGY...not it's all the rage.
  19. dadofandrew
    Yost got a lot smarter the day Doug got CC, and Hall/Weeks started hitting.
  20. dadofandrew
    As of today, I'd say JJ is likely to be signed long-term and agrees to play 2B. Escobar at $325K a year might be too darn tough to resist as the SS in '09.
  21. dadofandrew
    Should not take much...I'd argue one of those two, especially Pena, would be plenty.
  22. dadofandrew
    He's like a poor man's Escobar, an all-star every year for the past 4. He's young, a very good fielder, and while he's not Ryan Braun on offense, middle infielders don't need to be.
  23. dadofandrew
    The guy who gets the save cannot be the pitcher of record.
  24. dadofandrew
    Most blown saves actually occur in the 6th-8th innings, which make that whole stat meaningless. The out of the box idea is possible, but is improbable.
  25. dadofandrew
    Mota has been very good versus RH, and awful versus LH. Tough not to use him versus a few LH's though, or it will overwork the other guys. Stetter can be back in a day if needed. Mota does still throw very hard. He's a serviceable pitcher who may be replaced, but he's the same as many other guys. When you're dealing with a small sample like relievers do, a bad outing or two makes a guy seem much worse than he is.
