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.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 11, 2006 -> 02:50 AM) You input is greatly appreciated. :finger It's always fun to see someone rationalize giving up on a player after one game. I couldn't see the game but it does sound like Haeger can be a solid major leaguer with a little bit of a work and I'm sure it wasn't easy filling in for the best pitcher in baseball right now.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 11, 2006 -> 02:45 AM) Here's a few names of the top of my head. Vlad Guerrero Paul Konerko Jim Thome Albert Pujols Jon Smoltz Pedro Martinez Johan Santana What do these guys all have in common? They were ALL rookies at point in their career. So, no Joe Crede and Jon Garland are not 'the best we got". Guerrero-sucks Konerkos-sucks Thome-sucks Pujols-he's ok, I guess Smoltz-sucks Pedro-sucks Johan-sucks I don't see your point.

QUOTE(Cuck the Fubs @ May 10, 2006 -> 07:54 PM) Look at this pic from Tribune: Walker's pickin' his dick. Yes, that's exactly what he's doing.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 10, 2006 -> 11:40 PM) I would have given Haeger possibly another game, very hard for a pitcher in his 1st major league game to come out and pitch well straight away. I would have as well just because I don't think it's worth it to screw around with Brandon for one start when he's still trying to get used to being a reliever.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 10, 2006 -> 11:36 PM) Tracey has stuff, but he needs to cut down on the walks. I'd be surprised if it was him, but he is on the 40. Agreed but 4 lefties in the bullpen would definitely be different if we called up Lopez.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 10, 2006 -> 11:33 PM) The Score after game show was stating that it would probably be a righty recalled from AAA and it would most likely be Tracey.

I like that a lot.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 10, 2006 -> 11:28 PM) Sox games would be blacked out, if I bought it here. Tell me about it.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 10, 2006 -> 11:19 PM) Unless they replace Jason Johnson and Jake Westbrook gets back to his 2004 level, I can't see the Indians winning more than 90 games, and in this division the way that we are playing, I don't think that will be enough. Mediocre starting pitching + s***ty bullpen= not a contender. Unless they make over their whole pitching staff, they aren't going anywhere.

Wow, it just keeps getting worse for the Royals.
