They are both deserving. Aaron is tremendous out there. And just because Torii Hunter is in our league. They give it to the three best OF's, regardless of left, center, right.

I was at a party once and they did something like that...the girl fell and hit her head on a tv and started shaking bad. She had a god damn seizure. Not Jake approved!

The 3 spot is for a high on base percentage guy that hits for power but has decent speed. Typically your best overall hitter. This is also usually a guy who fits into your small ball philosophy. #3 is not a good spot for Frank right now. He keeps getting up in bunting situations and, being Frank, does not bunt. He also loves to strike out in those situations. I say no to Frank in the 3 hole. When Aaron is doing well (and hitting a few more homers) he's perfect for the spot, but right now theres not really anyone made for that spot. Don't forget Tad played in the 3 spot in Japan.

Could you post it?

Lots of bandwagoners, especially younger ones, become die hard fans. Some people don't just like a team just to like a team. Something's got to light the fire, why not a pennant?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 9, 2005 -> 08:47 PM) What kind of an idiot doesn't use green when being sarcastic?

Frank's hitting a lot of bombs, but he's really anti-Ozzieball. There are a lot of times he strikes out when a lot of our other guys would sac fly or bunt. We're starting to look more and more about the good old all or nothing sox. We just can't string 2 or 3 or 4 singles together. I am all in favor of sitting Frank whenever Ozzie feels necessary. At least move him down in the order.

Don't put all your faith in Coop. I talked to a guy who left professional baseball a couple years ago because of an injury, and he now works for the NPA (National Pitching Association) that is commanded by Tom House. Tom House is the only pitching coach that is actually employed by Major League Baseball. Japan and Cuba also have been known to consult him for pitching help. He is best known for teaching Mark Prior his motion. Anyways, this guy said of Major League pitching coaches, 2-5 actually know what they're doing. He said many were good themselves, and think their way is automatically right for everyone. Many stick to old and harmful mantras which hurt pitches. So don't think Coop is necessarily a miracle worker. BTW, Kris Honel went to this Tom House guy after his injury for a lesson, and after House attempted to change his motion Honel decided to leave. Hmm.

Jenks has to get us Oswalt if he's traded. And Oswalt better be locked up long-term. Might want to throw Ensberg in there too just for good measure.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Jul 6, 2005 -> 11:29 AM) All I know is we should all be bowing down to Frank... this guy is the offensive shot in the arm we were hoping for! Now let's see some singles and less strikeouts. He's not quite back to old form yet.

I like 1.10 even better.

I like 2.85 better.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 5, 2005 -> 09:09 AM) Great story, good for you and happy belated b-day. Hang onto the girlfriend, she sounds like a definite keeper. Don't keep her, give her to me.

Buehrle when people start scoring on him because I want him to get his six innings. Carl in left field. Willie and Timo in center. Timo in right/left.

I loved Luther. RIP

I think it's terrible that they couldn't give any money to the people in Africa. Any little amount could have helped.

And probably avoiding political/controversial topics would be good.

He had to get off the juice sooner or later.

Maggs is like that pesky ex girlfriend. You really wanna like her, but you know you can't.

What did he mean rule because of Scotty?

QUOTE(Dam8610 @ Jun 30, 2005 -> 11:03 PM) Detroit could send White, Guillen, Young, or Bonderman (listed in order I'd take them) Cleveland will probably send Hafner, but could also send Cliff Lee (#s are close to Garcia's, but slightly worse) Tampa Bay should send Cantu Kansas City doesn't deserve an all-star, but the closest thing they have is Emil Brown. Detroit - what about pudge?
