  1. Watching R.J. Swindle pitch gives me hope that someday I could pitch in the big leagues.
  2. Looks like 2-3 against the Nationals and Padres so far. Yay.
  3. What a joke of a pitching staff. You'd think they'd be able to hold a 7-1 lead against an awful offense. Too much to ask for this bunch of scrubs I guess.
  4. Hardy made two of the three outs that inning. Impressive.
  5. To get a playoff spot with this roster would be quite an achievement I agree. It's not a good achievement though and it's not something they should be trying to do, which is what's happening. Warrick is only on a one year contract So was Jake Voskuhl. That doesn't mean it's not a waste of money. At least he's bringing in guys with upside and not retreads Warrick is 27. He is what he is. And Tyronn Lue, Malik Allen and Francisco Elson say hi. Warrick and A.Johnson were pretty productive when they were on the court last year. One or both could blossom. Like I said, Warrick is 27. He is what he is. Amir Johnson is a foul machine. He can't stay on the court. So Warrick is in his prime, he's not blossoming and you can't blossom when you can't stay on the court which is the case with Johnson. In fact, we should've just kept Oberto and saved the money instead of needlessly wasting it on a guy who hasn't been productive his four years in the league.
  6. Everytime our pitchers pitch to contact the ball goes over the fence.
  7. Halladay, Peavy and Lee. You can argue the merits of trading the farm for them, but they were out there.
  8. Melvin himself said "we're buyers" and were the Brewers ever rumored to be trading anyone? No, we were rumored to be adding someone. Hell, even an obscure name like Kevin Correia we were reportedly looking at. Certainly doesn't seem like they had any intention of selling.
  9. I think all of the players that you named. Pretty much everyone except for Gallardo and Braun. You don't have to trade them, but at least put them on the market. If you didn't like the offer, don't trade them, but I have a hard time believing they even considered that option due to this "win now" trade.
  10. What money are we saving? We save about $3 million from getting rid of those three. Then we spend $3 million on Hakim Warrick. Hammond is basically trying to acquire every tweener forward in the NBA. It appears he's still trying to grab a hold of one of the last playoff spots which is just awful.
  11. Baseball Prospectus has us at about a 5% chance at the playoffs. Is that completely out of it? No. Is it pretty close to it? Yes.
  12. I think wasting however little time it took to put this deal together is bad. I think Vargas is bad. I think not either buying or selling is bad. This season has become a major disappointment to me.
  13. Not making a move would've been better.
  14. Yes. Amazing deal for Toronto. What the hell is Cincinnati thinking?
  15. Kevin Hart, Jose Ascanio and Josh Harrison for Grabow and Gorzelanny. An impressive return for the Pirates to say the least. http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090730&content_id=6154396&vkey=news_chc&fext=.jsp&c_id=chc
  16. Macha just said Hall will likely be back up after they're back from the road trip.
  17. Nope. Nieves didn't block the plate, ball beat Cameron, but Cameron slid right between Nieves' legs and got the plate before Nieves tagged him.
  18. Very, very good call by West. That's one of my main pet peeves with umpires, calling a guy out even if he slides under the tag. West didn't do that, which was refreshing to see.
  19. No, it was a pretty routine play just on the edge of the warning track.
  20. Good get for Sherrill I really like what the Orioles are doing. The Bedard trade has now given them. RHP Chris Tillman RHP Kam Mickolio LHP Tony Butler CF Adam Jones 3B Josh Bell RHP Steve Johnson
  21. I think that's exactly what they're doing. You can't just not count those even though he was just a pinch hitter pretty much.
