Oliver Perez put the first guy down quickly then got into trouble. Gave up 2 runs in the first. He let a few pitches hang and got a little wild.

thank heavens.

ok, I just made a quick adjustment to it. I did not want to do anything major to Lugs thread. I moved the rumor to the first line and added the question mark so it does not surprise many. Just for some good conversation.

whats wrong with the title thread? It says rumor.

for their first round pick? Are they that stupid? Why would you think about trading your first round pick for an aging defensive end not in his prime anymore and injury prone. I don't know how any of this is true, take it as a grain of salt. AND his contract, come on now.

the cap hit before the July 1st cut is only $775,000. That really is not a ton of savings. I really don't believe this anyway.

Finally get to see some baseball. Can't wait to catch the first Spring Training game on TV verses the Detroit Tigers. Got the day off too.

did you write that yourself?

in his neck, not his throwing arm.

The bullpen will keep the team back this year. Yes they do have a chance at the Wild Card but there are also some teams who upgraded too. You cannot count out the Dodgers and Padres. The Phillies have a nice offense, no one is putting that against them but their bullpen will fail them. I am not even set on the starting pitching. The have the same situation as the Mets but the Mets have the bullpen.

I think you should go Badger some Red Sox fans. Go find BurrEliShockeyToomerMossBarberFinnPierceMadisonWebsterWilsonDiehlSnee on BBI. He isn't hard to miss, if you see some miss spelled words and some correcting, you can't miss him.

I hope the Giants put the Franchise tag on Jay Feely! We need him next year and hope we don't let him go and become another Gary Anderson.

He was really skinny back then.

You usually have til right before qualifying. and I guess I missed my picks. Chist

Well it is better than having the Devil Rays A team. I think they are now affiliated as of 2007 with the Red Sox now.

here ya go tuef. http://www.celebrate10000.com/home.asp

already taken, you have to chose someone else.

so what's wrong with being a homer? He thinks he team is going to go far every year? Doesn't everyone think that, except if you are a Phillies fan who are btw only 50 some loses to become the only sports team ever to have 10,000 loses. Anyway the Veegster is the probably the most knowledgeable baseball guru on the board and one of the most passionate too. I wish I was so positive of my team all the time. I get mad a lot but I don't see him get mad, he just blows it off and looks til the next game. That I commend.

So he would waste our second round pick on a third round player? That just does not sound logical. Anyway, that is bad news if Toomer cannot make it back.

New York/Penn League? Gone to a Williamsport Crosscutters game (Single A) last year and it was a great experience. Way different from AAA ball. 99% of these guys you will never hear of. Baseball at it's purest.

yeah and I made a countdown thread too and seems like everyone has ignored it so far.
