i love the mackiawack deal, and ensberg's worth taking a flier on, maybe he'll provide some pop off the bench. ledesma was ok last season, im surprised he's been this bad so far this year, maybe we can make him into a long man.
i doubt the braves have any intentions of resigning teixeira, but they get him for 1.5 years, and all it cost them was some no-name arms and a top prospect who was expendable
i couldn't care less if a-rod stays with the yanks. wilson's a pretty good player and there aren't many good 3b in baseball--welcome to the other 95% of the league if arod leaves
i dont know, the sox dont have the worst bullpen in the world, and dye hasn't had that great of a season. besides, where does he play? are the sox going to bench someone making 15 mil? the only explanation i can think of is that ortiz is still hurt and wont be getting better anytime soon so dye will end up dh-ing
the one thing i think is kinda gay is that strahan is intentionally calling coughlin when he knows coughlin is asleep or at practice. that's weak, if you're going to do something like this you have to be a man about it
the more i think about it the more im convinced that this isn't about money as much as it's about skipping or shortening training camp--an art perfected by walter jones
2005-1st round sweep
2006-1 win in the first round
2007-NLCS
baby steps my friend--i'll take it. not making the playoffs 7 straight years is still fresh in my mind
sorry fe, i would've been happy to go talk shit during the pads series and liven up that section but im convinced that they get cold everytime i get too confident
it's only an extra 3 mil or so. and if gagne stays healthy and still puts up sick numbers they can resign him, put him back in the closer role and finally put papelbon back in the rotation next season
to be fair, if maine was projected to have a high 3's low 4's era as a member of an AL team then he's probably about where he would have been projected if he was on an NL minor league team--maybe a little better
he did the same to me. he quit the giants board, bitched about it on the giants board, made his own board that no one joined, and then somehow became a mod and a total hypocrite
