QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Nov 7, 2008 -> 09:20 PM) The difference is Beltran walks ninety times a year, plays a prime position, is great defensively, and can swipe 20+ bags at a great success rate. Dye doesn't do any of those things. Jenks+Vazquez for Beltran would be a steal, IMO. Carlos Beltran is one of the best players in baseball. I'd be shocked if these rumors have any substance, though. I'm sure Omaya would want Danks/Floyd for Beltran. The only facet of the game Dye is close to Beltran is his power, and the home stadium dimensions of the two players is a high contrast

Poreda's velocity may be down because he is working on a split-finger or sinker which they are classifying as fastball. I say this because his groundball to flyball out ratio is now 5 to 1

What were they chanting

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 31, 2008 -> 01:27 AM) Would you, as another team's GM, sign Octavio Dotel if it meant giving up two high draft picks? I wouldn't even consider it for a nano-second. The team that signs him only has to give up one draft pick and depending on where they finished in the standings, it may be a 2nd rounder

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Oct 30, 2008 -> 10:08 PM) Besides, the guy you offer to Tampa would be Octavio. That would be a shrewd pickup for them, he'll be worth 2 draft picks after next season as a type A free agent

If you like beer, check out Chumley's. 50 beers on tap and 100 bottles. Food is so-so but the place is worth it just for beers alone because you won't find many of them elsewhere

Not only does Cain have one of the lowest GB% in baseball, but also continuously has one of the lowest HR per fly ball rates because of the home run suppressing NL West parks (sans Coors) he pitches in. If Cain pitched half his games in the most homer-friendly park in baseball, his numbers would not look nearly as nice. He's not a guy you trade Swisher, Poreda, and Fields for (not many guys in baseball I would trade so much for.)

On a totally unrelated note, I'd just like to say how much I enjoy the Firefox add-on called DownloadHelper

There are worse ruts

Well I guess to be technically correct it would be Netherlands

Amsterdam /thread

I think her stand up is brilliant. I love crude/offensive humor The Brits have different tastes, Russell Brand is their number one act. While I find him to be very witty and charming in interviews, his stand up is kind of disappointing

Let the Right One In looks awesome. Has anyone been to a pre-screening

It's about time someone had the balls to abandon the tired star-based ranking system and adopt a fresh new scale based on bouncing tits Nice review by the way

QUOTE (sircaffey @ Oct 16, 2008 -> 02:32 PM) Well, was anyone right on Floyd? Me, wite, and Tony Greg Pratt and Dick Allen should be forced to serve a suspension for their horrifically misguided criticisms

This is the best thread I've seen on soxtalk in a long time

If you like the song, then wait until you see the video. It's the hottest Britney's ever looked and she's nude in it

That was a great video. I have been working on one just of highlights from the 3-in-a-row elimination games against our division rivals

It be like waiting until now to sell Fannie Mae

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 8, 2008 -> 04:16 PM) Plus, I've seen tits. It's not like seeing them gets old I'd say Spearmint Rhino or one of the other strip clubs is a "must" of Vegas. If your wife isn't prude I think it would be a great night for you both. She will get just as much and probably more attention than you

Oh also after Ryan and Michael shaved theirs, Dwight grew one himself

The goatee was a joke. After Michael helped Ryan move and saw his facial hair, Michael grew an identical goatee to Ryan. Then Ryan got freaked out by that and shaved his off, at which point Michael followed suit and claimed they were the goatee-less brothers or something
