Jon Gilmore's average up to .270 and rising. Johnnie Lowe is making a habit of getting destroyed.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 28, 2009 -> 08:58 PM) Linebrink pitched a scoreless inning? WTF? He can get 3 outs.. Thing is Ozzie tries to leave him in for a 4th, 5th or 6th out.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 28, 2009 -> 04:18 PM) That's why I bust out laughing (I laugh at the Cubs regardless) when their short bus fans and others try to blame their terrible season on injuries. NOBODY has had to deal with more on the injury front (and as you mentioned, the terrible Adenhart tragedy) then the Angels have. I think the only team that should have a right to b****, and so does their fans is the Mets. I can't even fathom losing what they did and still trying to compete. Just terrible luck. Then again.. choking down to the wire against the Phillies every year wasn't helping either.

Quite frankly... it isn't no.. but it's a nickname. as I'm giving my best Steven A. Smith impersonation.

Obviously MHizzle85 isn't your real name.

Torres will probably be a future reliever, especially with his short stature. Sweeney could be a steal for TB if he develops and develops into that power but he's a while away. I'm just shocked that the Rays didn't get more actually. Kazmir might be a classic change of scenery guy. He is proven, though his head is in a Gavin Floyd like crossroads.. but he still has the stuff. All in all, I love this deal for LAA. High risk, high reward potentially.

QUOTE (Tex @ Aug 28, 2009 -> 02:05 PM) While I think the team possibly could benefit from a fresh face and approach; he certainly does not deserve the level of blame he receives here. This. I wouldn't shed one tear if they fired him, but at the same time, he isn't as bad as people think or want to believe he is.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 10:08 PM) :lolhitting I expect to see Slav like this today....

I don't think the reliever Josh Fields is still with us. I think its just the 3B Josh Fields.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 08:34 PM) Escobar is still young so he can still be a pretty damn good prospect. It will be interesting to see where he starts next year. He already spent some time in Kanny last year so repeating again would be really slowing his progress. I hope he does. I know how much you love him. Gilmore has got his average up to .269 as well. He's been hot in August as well. Joucer Martinez, whose been money for Great Falls struggling today. Pangilinan 2-3 BB.

Nick Green is a stud reliever.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 04:11 PM) nationals win 5-4, macdougal is 14 of 15 in saves, ERA just under 2.00 for WAS. Why the hell couldnt he do that here??? He has the Javy Vazquez syndrome. He can't pitch at all in pressure situations/when a team is in a playoff hunt.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 03:52 PM) Wait, what happened?

Well.... day 1 of this idea has begun.

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 03:28 PM) Thome CH Cute Hitter? Didn't know that was a position.

Nicely written article Ozzie Ball. Everyone knows my views on it, especially in terms of value, but I still think Pena can be something for us when Coop works with him more.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 02:54 PM) I guess I set myself up for that one huh? You know what I meant.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 02:40 PM) Wow, just wow. I can't believe the Rivers hate in here. I absolutely HATE Rivers.. hate the prick.. one of the biggest dicks/ego inflated assholes, in the game today. But you got to give credit where credit is due. He's a damn good quarterback.

dont stop... wait... no... stop seriously.. stop the losing.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 02:06 PM) Now Milton has dropped the "R" word. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,5478912.story It's a damn shame that Soriano "gets it" and this ass clown doesn't yet.

QUOTE (Markbilliards @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 02:06 PM) Both are real. ^^^^^^^ Saw the first one actually by watching that game, and the second one I believe was in the minors, which ESPN and others have put up before.

QUOTE (JFields27 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 02:02 AM) Jump, Jump, Jump .. Come on Jump, Jump, Jump ... i hate rap QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 02:10 AM) Kid, I'm with you! Losers.... Though I hate Vanilla Ice.

This is awesome. Hard to get Gordon star struck, but when your talking to the people who created your walkup song, it's pretty surreal.

QUOTE (JFields27 @ Aug 27, 2009 -> 01:46 AM) Hell no we wont go, hell no we wont go .... Ice, ice.. baby..
