I dont recall being able to tailgate there.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 08:36 PM) In a full season, the guy has had a OBP above .302 once in his career (2004; .330), and had a OPS above .667 once (2004; .711). Despite this, he's making 3.1 million this year, $4.15 million next year, and a team option for $5.45 million in 2008. He's making more money than both Cintron and Mackowiak, yet both are better players. He would have no role on this team since Uribe and Iguchi are around, and Cintron backs them both up (as does Ozuna). I agree, thats why im coming from. Right now, the combo of Uribe and Cintron is better.

wow, I have no idea what I meant there. Weird.

QUOTE(WCSox @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 08:56 PM) New York isn't an easy place to play, but it's not like Mel Stottlemyre is a bad pitching coach. Meh. hes not great.

Tyler Walker blows. BA looked good tonight huh?

f***in Tampa Bay. De-toilet gets a break. who is this Tyler Walker douche?

Where woudl he play? I would rather have JD than Carlos Lee any day of the week.

Well, averages arent really that great of a tell tale sign. Maybe check out the median age as well.

QUOTE(bmags @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 04:15 PM) more like he was mad that kids who were given every opportunity to exceed in schooling threw it away and gave the school a bad name, all the while were embraced more by the school. WHo gave the school a worse name? The athletes who probably excelled in sports and school, or the whiny senior who decided to take it upon himself to embarass the school through his graduation speech?

Isnt the world championship of paper rock scissors on tonight?

I left early, big deal. Why is it a crime to leave early? I go to 50+ games a year, I have to stay to the last out or im not a fan? Please. They were getting stomped, it was a sunday night, and I work early monday. It doesnt make me less of a fan.

I've never seen a thread take a turn like this. A 2 page post about school funding? Im pretty sure thats not what the kids speech was about. He was mad that other students took liberties that he was not given.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 02:52 PM) Getting hits against good pitching. I would also like to fire Don Cooper for our pitching not making pitches against good hitting.

So, the kid is a huge nerd and voiced his displeasure with his HS because he wasnt really socially acceptable. Well, there is always Average Joe for him in his future. That, and more wedgies. NERDS!!!!!!!

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 03:05 PM) According to George Offman he lost most of his teeth and messed up both knees to go along with all the usual facial and head lacerations plus the collapsed lung and broken jaw. that sucks so bad. The guy is a class act, I hope the NFL doesnt lose him for good.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 01:59 PM) AJ has come to the plate 48 times with RISP. He is hitting .208 in those at bats thus far. Anderson has seen 38 at bats with RISP. He's hitting .105 in those situations. 103 of AJ's at bats are with nobody on. He is batting 379 with an OBP of 418. "close and late" .348 .464 To lead off an Inning he is batting .412 And one of the most productive stats. Man on 3rd Bases loaded, he is hittin .667 He is almost fucntioning as another lead off man, and is getting on in those situations.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 01:54 PM) A good game plan against him would be to try to foul off some of the inside pitches, and drive his sinking stuff outside the other way over hte infield. Instead, we have this habit of trying to pull the outside stuff when we face sinkerballers, and it usually turns into those ground balls the pitcher wants. Otherwise known as the definition of why sinkers work.

f***, prayers to Ben, a great guy who I went to school with.

So, we trade our best bat in our minor leagues. We get a SS who isnt as good as even A Cintron, and an aging Cf'er who really wouldnt have a spot defensively or offensively. Hmmm. No

Unless Tori can pitch out of the pen, he is useless.

QUOTE(VAfan @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 01:49 PM) Anyone notice that BA has as many RBI (15) hitting last with 129 ABs as AJ Pierzynski has hitting 6th with 196 ABs? Meanwhile, Mack has 11 RBI in 112 ABs, and Cintron has 12 RBI in 106 ABs. I'm not sure if this is an endorsement for keeping Anderson, or an illustration of how unproductive a .327 hitter (AJ) can be. Whoa whoa whoa. I hope you are kidding. AJP has the best 3, 4, 5 in front of him in the MLB. Of course he wont have many RBI opps. Thats just ignorant to say that he is unproductive. He is getting on base after many a bse clearing hit.

Seriously, who gives up 3 goals like this? The hype machine for this team was in overdrive, and this is what happens?

worthless Thanks for qualifying. Have a good day.

can I get audio anywhere guys?
