NUKE_CLEVELAND

No way are we get closer than 10 GB at seasons end without one more starter. Its that simple. What would suck is that Cleveland would be the one to win the division after royally sucking ass the last couple of seasons. Just goes to show what a proper rebuilding job will do for you.

None of that matters to Reinsy if he can save 6 million dollars does it?

Houston picks one off and now with a quick pass they can make it 10-0 before the half.

That was a sweet pass by Carr for the score. I guess the cold isin't that much of a factor after all.

Hi8is had a gem in the latest Odalis Perez thread.

Its about damn time to see this team entertaining people and not making us all sick. Keep up the good work guys!

KW has a habit of making those he deals with look like baseball geniuses

You think they might be in the running now for whats left of the FA pitcher market?

They're polishing up the Roulette wheel from last season. It's gonna be nice and shiny and ready to turn out that days losing pitcher. Why dont we just forfeit all those games now and be done with it. Save Sox fans the misery of watching the carnage.

Funny though how it always sells so well in the couple of days before payday.

What can I say? You gotta prove your yes-man credentials before you can get a job in Slackhawks management. Foley calls em like he sees em and that goes a long way with me.

Do they hype him too much? Yes. Is he the most overrated player in football? No.

If you're not limiting this to baseball then my vote goes to Pat Foley from the former pro hockey team known as the Blackhawks. Hearing him call a game was awesome even when the Slacks started to suck in recent years.

I can defenitely see that. I've posted many times that JR is taking lessons on how to run a sports franchise from Bill Wirtz and this is straight out of the Dollar Bill playbook. Make a lowball offer for a top free agent that will surely be outdone by another team then whine to the media about how they "tried" to land the big fish. Why am I not surprised by this?

There's no way in bloody hell Clement is as bad as Navarro was.

That is soooooooo f***ing asinine. If thats true then we'll be spinning the roulette wheel every 5th day to see which tee ball stand gets a chance to go out there and get lit up yet again. Roulette wheel = automatic loss every 5th game. I dont want to believe that though until Spring Training actually gets here.

I'm pissed that Clement went to another team but I wont stomp up and down crying "SALARY DUMP!" unless we get to spring training and still haven't signed a starting pitcher or all the top FA's are off the market. Hermanson as the 5th starter is not an option IMHO & I really dont want to hear anymore excuses about waiting for a midsummer deal. I got news for KW. If we sit pat where we are right now spinning the roulette wheel every 5th day then we'll be too far out of contention by June/July to be worried about making an impact deal.

I really hope you're right. He was supposed to be the second coming of Robin Ventura and I'm still waiting.

Better a bum like Estes than a tee ball stand like Grilli or Diaz.

Way to make a first impression. How much you wanna bet they build him a seperate outhouse at Shea Stadium with his locker in it?

Agreed. There isin't a death painful enough for ass clowns like whoever did this.

Dude, you have a death wish or something?!

I've had some s***ty beers before but nothing could possible top a swill called "Marzen Smoke". This stuff earns its name because it tastes like someone took a bottle of guiness and dropped about 10 cigarette butts in it. :puke The only reason I didn't make it a poll choice is that not many people know about it and the only reason I do is because CubKilla had me drink one on a dare. I had to hold my nose to finish it.

I dont think KW is that dumb. It bit him in the ass big time last season so I dont think he's gonna try that madness again. //hopes like hell I dont have to eat those words later.
