    Jim Powell is about to interview Len Kasper. After listening to Kasper on WTMJ for so many years, this interview seems strange.

    Have to have feet on the ground outside. So airports don't count unless it's a small one that you have to walk outside on the tarmac to get on the plane.

    Taint McFadden?

    I got one more for ya... Rihanna's "A Girl Like Me" - I love Rihanna's voice. I think this album even made the lists of some hipster-types in 2006.

    Estrada's OBP over the previous 3-year period: .309Kendall's OBP over the previous 3-year period: .340 Granted, Kendall sucked last year (tho, still not as badly as Carne). And the fact remains he may be in rapid decline. But given his body type, age and previous success at the plate, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt that last year was merely an off year. He's no world beater at the plate. Given that, it wouldn't shock me to see him put up an OBP 30-40 points higher than Estrada this year. At least you know he's capable of it. And do you really want to argue anyone's speed vs. Estrada? http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Drink a Budweiser Chelada. Budweiser and Clamato. A match made in St. Louis.

    I'm not eligible for the federal rebate that comes out in March, but that's because I did a lot of tax planning for the 2007 fiscal year without realizing the rebate would be sitting there. I won't complain, though... I'm getting nearly $3500 here in a few days and my AGI was something like $29.

    That's a good call. Of all the sports I played between middle school and high school, watching and competing in wrestling matches officiated by an idiot were the most frustrating.Wrestling is the ultimate one-on-one sport and every single instant of a match is usually crucial.

    This would be a good ending to any movie.

    My favorite quote from TH's blog entry: "People are fired in the middle of contracts," said Melvin. "It doesn't matter whether contracts are picked up or not. I could be fired, too, and I have two years left on my contract." Doug is so coy!

    The more I've thought on it, the more I expect this scenario, assuming everyone stays healthy: Starters: Sheets, Gallardo, Suppan, Villanueva, Bush Long relief: Capuano Middle relief: Torres, Mota Short relief: Riske, Turnbow, Shouse Closer: Gagne Melvin's made it sound like both Bush and Villanueva have inside shots at the rotation (something I don't disagree with). At least from some people's perspective, it would make sense to start Capuano in the pen and let him get back on track. It would give the bullpen a second lefty as well as a long relief guy with a solid track record. I'd like to have a lefty in the rotation more than a second lefty in the pen, but it seems like Villanueva and Bush would both have to screw up big time to let Capuano into the rotation on merit (well... perceived merit). Of course there could also be an injury or two... knock on wood there aren't.

    I finished paying off all my credit cards last month (yay), and since I can get a higher return by investing it than I'm paying on my student loans, I'm going to invest it (less the cost of an iPhone).
  13. And That
    Me too. Fitting Bush in the pen may require the trading of more than just Vargas, barring injury - one of Mota, Torres or Turnbow could well be gone as well. Unless they go with Shouse as the only lefty again.

    John Dillinger?

    I've never noticed that on any sort of a wide scale, but if you have proof I'll believe it. However, "LOL - YO - helloooooo..." is different than that. It's not that AKA Pete disagreed with Ennder, it is the manner in which he did. Posting the aforementioned statement makes the poster come off as sophomoric. IIRC, that's not even the first time he used the term "LOL" in the thread in serious reaction.

    Assuming this is true - that's awesome!

    Kendall upgrades OBP at a position that desperately needed an OBP upgrade and can't possibly be worse than Estrada both behind the plate and behind the bases. By nature of his OBP and speed, Kendall is worth quite a number of extra bases this year. Kendall isn't a world beater. Thankfully the Brewers have excellent talent at nearly every other position, so they don't need him to be. I like the Kendall signing a lot. Did when it happened, still do today.

    Gorman Shakespeare?

    Geno, the ironic thing is that if you wore a "No VORP, No PECOTA..." shirt to a game, you'd just be asked what those things stood for. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Neutral Milk Hotel: "In the Aerop National Skyline: "This=Everything" (titled "This Equals Everything" on Amazon) The band was founded by Jeff Dimpsey (Hum) and Jeff Garber (Castor, Year of the Rabbit). Last time I figured it all out, it was my 33rd favorite album of all time. I think you've heard of most of the 32 above it, so I'm going with this one. Kind of a Depeche Mode vibe.

    Does the $5 include shipping and handling?

    I'm putting a line beneath the words I type here. Beneath this line, the topic of racial sensitivity will no longer be discussed. Thanks! -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    He'll be eligible for the Rule 5 draft after the '09 season. If he's still in the organization at that point and still performing as expected without a call-up to the bigs, he'll be added to the 40-man roster. Minor league free agency doesn't apply to players on the 40-man.
