QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ May 13, 2006 -> 03:40 PM) I actually feel a little bad for Maddux. He pitched a hell of a game. No you don't.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 13, 2006 -> 03:04 PM) Contract year dude. Now that he got his money he's back to his old form. We all talked about the possibility of this happening. When did Jon ever have an era at almost 7?? This is a bad stretch as of right now, he's not all the sudden back to his old form...oh ya, since when was last year his contract year?

The problem with the Garland-Loaiza comparison is that Jon was a solid pitcher before he had his great year, last year. He might not be the Jon of 05 when all is set and done but he surely isn't going to be this bad either.

Very informative thread.

Ya, now that I'm home, I'll probably go and buy this today.

Alright, time to take these next 3. GO CHAMPS!!!!!!!!!

Thanks everyone. I'm sure she'll get through it but it's still a scary situation, and even scarrier because a friend's mom just passed away due to the same thing this year.

Yay.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ May 13, 2006 -> 03:15 AM) What happened dude? My mom has breast cancer. My parents have known for about a month but they didn't tell me cause they didn't want me to get freaked out with finals and s*** coming up. It was such a weird feeling when she told me, I didn't know what to do.

If JR would raise the payroll to rent Hunter then I'd kill someone to get that man on our team. I love BA but he can wait half a year if getting Torii is possible, oh ya..it's not possible by the way.

I just got home from college and came home to some of the worst news possible. Bah.

Just gives it his all, all the time, that's why he'll always be one of my favorites. Get well soon Arow.

Frank left their game today with an undisclosed injury. That doesn't sound good.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ May 11, 2006 -> 05:19 PM) Ken Griffey Jr. is finally coming off the DL. Ya, but for how long is the question. Why couldn't Jr be the one chasing Ruth right now?

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 11, 2006 -> 11:48 AM) I'm glad he got to pitch in the Series, since he was such a big part of us getting there. Hey, he had just as big a part in the alcs as the rest of the bullpen. Minus Neal.

Think you can make a bigger version, kalapse?

QUOTE(SnB @ May 11, 2006 -> 10:54 AM) college is half over quarter.

Definitely a toupee, it's cool though because he's the only person that makes bbtn managable to watch.

QUOTE(JimH @ May 11, 2006 -> 08:45 AM) Barry Rozner in todays Daily Herald thinks KW is up to something, looking to add. When isn't Kenny up to something?

QUOTE(knightni @ May 11, 2006 -> 03:06 AM) It's not totally the same, but this reminds me of the "BMAC sucks" threads of middle 2005. Haeger is by no means on par with BMAC, IMO. But, he can still be a major league starter someday. He's still got a few years to learn. He's what.. 22? Yes. There is definitely a tendancy to give up on players way to quick. I mean, Joe Crede can be the poster boy of what can happen if you stay patient with a talented player but it's just hard for some people to grasp taht concept.

QUOTE(WinningUgly85 @ May 10, 2006 -> 03:08 PM) you know what we do. We should drive by wrigley field, right by the protest and hold up a sign that says Grinder ball rule number 1908: While we parade, they protest. 1-0 Good guys. Honking the horn. LOL, that's really good.

Congrats

Very sorry to hear that, Tex. RIP.

I'd also like to add that if Joe is playing for a contract now then I can't wait to see what he does in 08 when you know..it's his freakin contract year.
