The only one I've ever seen do it regularly was Vinny R one spring, and I'm sure he's better at catching now.
-
Laird is despised by many Rangers' fans for not framing the ball at all, rather pushing it away. I've never seen him play, but his offense was pretty catcher-like in '07 as well.
-
Same thing with Lienie's.
-
I'd just pretend it was an old girlfriend and not answer. Also, if it is some kind of telemarketer, I believe you can just say "Do not call me again" and they have to remove you from the list.

For health insurance, it is not bad at all. I paid $3640 a year, and my company added $9K more, and we had a $1000 deductible as well, and copays thereafter. Hang onto that insurance.

They used to use refrigerated trucks as well, but as many know, stores have limited cool space, and usually store it warm anyway.

Family name? Clara is not on the radar for most, not that there's anything wrong with that.

2007 Fall Instructional League
dadofandrew replied to Jim Goulart's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
It might be because Salome's was not a drug of recreation, as Jeffress' was. Salome's coach said he'd be in Hawaii, so maybe he'll report back. -
By the way, how much OF has Crabbe played? I was aware of about 5 games.
-
Family Fun Day might be a good time to take my son down, he started watching last year, and likes to guess how many points the shot was worth.
-
But he's a 23 year-old corner OF who is already average, and is a top defensive RF. He might well be a star in a couple years. Yo is untouchable to me, but I think many are undervaluing Jeff. He may not be as goos as Hart, but he's still a year or two younger as well. When he peaks in 2011, he might be top 5 in the game. And yes, it's scary to consider how good Prince might be as well.

2007 Performances that went largely unnoticed....
dadofandrew replied to OglivieHomePerm's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
I had Cust on the RUTT team twice, and finally gave up on him this year, citing his success in thin air and small parks of the PCL. As they say in the market, I was not wrong, I was early.http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif -
Politicalbase.com (Not a political argument / debate thread)
dadofandrew replied to bjkrautk's topic in Off-Topic Forum
On that site, I'm sure you'd see many wealthy folks donate to almost everyone. In Poli Sci, this was called "paying for a meeting". -
I could not recall if Wise was a FA or not, but he is likely to be non-tendered, and possibly tried to resign cheaply. Yep, not much there to get excited about losing. Some role player types, but those rarely are lost in the Rule 5. Bray also lacks that high ceiling that Rule 5 picks usually have, but a low payroll team (D'Rays, A's) might take a flyer.

Does Mark Rogers Still Have a Future Here in Mil?
dadofandrew replied to ryanbraun75's topic in Brewers Minor League Talk
He's got a heckuva future if he stays healthy. Parra proves a guy can come back, while Mike Jones proves many do not. -
Wise, Jenkins, and the other free agents will fall off eventually, until signed, if they are, of course.
-
Francouer is a tremondous defensive OF. He's not a great hitter, but he's still very young as well. Walks going up annually. He might be a star in a couple years.
-
I would not mind seeing Frank C at all, but I believe he does have a pretty weak arm. Still, he's almost a dictionary defintion of a "professional hitter". And yes, he'd just be a platoon guy. That said, Gross might be just as good.
-
Wilson has a bad OBP, Burrell has a ton of K's, both mentioned as negatives by Doug many times. The others would fit.
-
Garland is an option, but I have to think others will give more, because their rotation is barren. The 7+ IP and <3 runs is a very interesting thing to look at. His ERA may have been affected like Marquis' was in '06, and many will never notice it.
-
The pitching was 8th, and the offense was 4th, if memory serves. The defense was probably near the bottom, so if you add all that up, they probably were the 6th-7th best team. Looking at next year, unless they trade Sheets, which I think is possible, but not likely, they would seem to have 4 spots of the rotation full, with 4 possibilities. If you trade one, that leaves the 5th starter, and 2 guys in the 'pen as "depth", which is pretty good. That's how I think it will go down, unless they pick up one more SP {probably in a deal like Veteran SP for one of our SP's, plus young player(s)}, then 2 will be dealt. Much of the improvement in '08 will come from our young guys continuing to develop. 5 position players and 2 starters have yet to peak.
-
Ndogg, you seem to be forgetting what teams run out there every 5th day. ARI pitched Livian Hernandez last night and his numbers match up well versus Capuano and Vargas. If he's the #3 SP on a 90 win team...

A-Rod's Postseason Struggles (since the 2004 ALCS)
dadofandrew replied to DougJones43's topic in Milwaukee Brewers Talk
Geno, you're talking about a tiny sample, what, 100 AB's? Every player in the game has a bad stretch of 100 AB's. Taking a large number and making it smaller until it proves the point you're looking to prove doesn't do it for me. -
Brett's list includes several who are not very high OBP guys.
-
According to the press conference, it's a high OBP guy who takes pitches, with a slight consideration for not striking out a whole lot either.
