QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 02:09 PM) First off, I don't see the "Similar speed". Even in Podsednik's now weakened state, I think that Goes to Scott by quite a bit. Secondly, Scott sees a lot of pitches per plate appearance. Out of people with 200+, Scott is 28th. (Thome is 6th, Dye is 23rd, which is a bit odd since he used to be on the other side of that list.) Rob M. is 143rd. I think that's an important thing for a leadoff hitter, and Pablo drives me nuts for that same reason. 3rd, Rob is just terrible against lefties, so you still wind up with him as a platoon player with Pablo. 4th, Rob is either as streaky or streakier than Podsednik. But the key is: Rob is a bette player (streakiest included.) He is far away a better hitterm, will field better in left and gives a better presence at the plate.

join my club, i am in favor.

those are pretty good, good find.

Fathom, can't u multi-task. I am watching both, but am so glad Prison Break is back.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 21, 2006 -> 07:33 PM) I think Hawk dove head first out of the booth. i wish i got the Sox feed on MLBTV to hear him.

i downloaded the quick start rosters and the first job i got was with the Northfolk Tides, is that normal? What can I do as their manager to help the team? IS there in-game managing? How long does it take to become a MLB manager? Thanks for the help and any other suggestions are appreciated.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Aug 16, 2006 -> 09:08 PM) Neal Cotts='05 Damaso Marte come on, Cotts is struggling, but don't give him the Damaso comp.

did mack misread that ball?

why are we back to corpseball tonight? Bernero is horrible.

anyone who knows MLB.TV, how do u start watxhing the game live? right now, i am like a couple minutes back, but i want to catch so i can post simultaneously.

i am liking this a lot. In Mizzou and seeing my Sox kick some serious butt.

We kicked his ass and now they are crying like little babies.

Rick Hahn (asst. GM) said on the Talking Baseball with Bruce Levine that they would like to add in addition to a third catcher and some more speed of the bench, one or two arms in the bullpen. So, that means Stewart, Owens, Tracey and Boooooonnnneeeee.

Could Juan walk?

just underneath it as Hawk would say.

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 01:43 PM) If we find some pics of Philly's GM in a compromising position...

nice piece of wood work by AJ.

Bronx cheer for a 90+ MPH fastball.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 01:37 PM) Yeah, I am. Damn, 4 hits already. Settle down Freddy. I'll bet u see him over there, a New Trier grad that loves hunting and making an ass of himself. He won't be hard to spot.

Oz really needs to wake up and see that Freddy does not give this team a chance to win.

Freddy's breaking pitches are so flat.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 01:34 PM) Haha, I'm in Cary Quad SW, sweet. are u doing engineering there?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 13, 2006 -> 01:34 PM) I forgot that Ordonez made a nice catch on the Pods fly ball. That might be the most impressive defensive inning I've ever seen. two web gems in the first inning is pretty sweet.
