  1. Why is Cameron even taking a lead at this point?
  2. Well, this is definitely one for the "Yostian Loss Tracker" over at firenedyost.com
  3. Do you think someone will even ask him that question? I mean, I hope so, but that's usually the type of "hard-hitting journalism" the J/S stays away from.
  4. Me: Gagne again? I swear, Yost must be high or something. My buddy: Well, it is 4/20...
  5. Well, this blows. How many fresh arms do we have in the bullpen?
  6. Almost as nice as the run is the fact that both other runners moved up too...double play's no longer in order. I want insurance!
  7. What is the PS2 version like? Is it worth getting? The vibe I was getting is that it's basically just a roster update for the 07 game. Are the catchers ratings still ridiculously high? Last year, Mike Rivera was one of the top-rated guys on the team.
  8. I thought the old Dana Carvey show was hilarious. I remember how he used to just rag on whoever was sponsoring his show, which usually led to that sponsor dropping him and someone new picking it up next week (Taco Bell and Mountain Dew were two for sure, can't remember the other ones). Come to think of it, that may have played a role in him getting canned.
  9. I would love the DH in the NL. It's what I miss most from our days in the AL. What's the fun in watching pitchers up there looking hapless trying to swing the bat? Not only that, but it makes it pretty hard to get excited when the guys towards the bottom of your order do anything. Example: two outs and the #7 batter smacks a double. A chance to score, right? Wrong. IBB the #8 guy and up comes the pitcher to feebly end the inning. Teams can't get away with that in the AL. There's still strategy with the DH too. Boston has used defensive replacements in both of its World Series runs (Mientkiewicz, Kapler, Ellsbury, Crisp). Managers play lefty-righty matchups out of the bullpen even more because they don't have to worry about whether the pitcher's spot is due up next inning and if they'll have anyone to PH. Besides, look at the guys we usually run out there as part of double switches. Counsell? Mench? A rule that would make us see less of these guys is a bad thing? Finally, a question for you. Who would you rather have coming to the plate in a big spot: Paul Molitor or Ben Sheets (or Counsell if they decide to PH)? It's a no-brainer. And if you want to pooh-pooh that because I picked possibly the greatest DH ever, fine. Take Sheets/Counsell vs. Kevin Seitzer. Or Greg Vaughn. Or Don Money. Or Larry Hisle. Or even an aged Hank Aaron. All of those guys served us well as DH at one time or another.
  10. "Trachsel: Two candy bars and a Coke." http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/roll.gif
  11. Anyone see the guy behind the plate trying to flash a neon Cubs logo while Valverde was pitching in the 9th? Imagine that, a Cubs fan acting like an ass at a baseball game. Who would have thought? Oh wait...everyone in the country, that's who.
  12. Beckett was awesome tonight, and I agree that TBS is doing a nice job with these games, although their on-field reporter for the Boston-LA series is kind of hard to understand.
  13. You gotta love a team with attractive uniforms. Now go work on your base-stealing skills.
  14. I was angry, but I chuckled. I don't always agree with Colbert or Stewart, but they make me laugh.
  15. I'll second "Forever Young." I've seen it work very well in videos like this before. Or, depending on the group of kids, maybe "Praise You" by Fat Boy Slim. We've come a long, long way together Through the hard times and the good I have to celebrate you, baby I have to praise you like I should.
  16. March 31st? Wow! I don't think the Brewers have ever started that early. Could be another opening day snow-out.
  17. Thank you Geoff. You struggled sometimes, but you always played hard, and I'll always appreciate that. Best wishes wherever you end up next year.

  19. You read my mind. http://static.yuku.com//domainskins/bypass/img/smileys/smile.gif What better way to celebrate than with a picture of good old Hac-Man? One flap down, baby!
  20. For the love of God, someone post a picture of Jeffrey Leonard, stat!
  21. The Cubs are giving us the division. Take it! For the love of God, take it!
  22. Perfect. I paid no attention to the drafts in the 90s...I knew we weren't going to take anybody good anyway.
  23. What I'd really like to do is find some way to blame this on Sal Bando.
  24. Turnbow or Hall. I can't give it to Capuano because he pitched well in several of those games, but was screwed by the bullpen/defense/lack of run support.
