QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 29, 2009 -> 12:27 PM) What other splashes has Williams made this close to Soxfest other than bringing in Kenny Lofton? I'm talking like January 25th to February 15th, the time pitchers and catchers report, because I simply don't recall any moves he's made this late in the offseason. Given, he's never had the quality free agents this late in the offseason either, but that's beside the point. Werent AJ Pierzynski, Darin Erstad, Tadahito Iguchi all within that time period?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jan 29, 2009 -> 01:05 PM) LOL. It seems like Murray has never used a computer in his life. The computer on his desk looks like it is straight from the 80's

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Jan 29, 2009 -> 12:52 PM) Must have a shower before sex also. I was ROFL'ing when that Nigerian guy actually turned up next to Murray. Good, good episode. I liked the look he gave Murray when Murray started explaining to him how to use the computer

Im curious why most people feel that the prosecution is weak, and they really have nothing substantial as evidence, yet still feel that he will be impeached? (thats the general feeling Im getting reading the last 3 pages of this thread, Im not directing it at anyone in specific)

Thats a tough call rock. Both are clearly superior pitchers, but both have some suspicious arm troubles in the last year or two

QUOTE (shipps @ Jan 29, 2009 -> 08:52 AM) I bought my old man a Sony Blu-ray player for Christmas in 07'. He calls me yesterday saying that the last 3 blurays he recieved from Netflix (The Hulk twice,Wanted) hasnt worked on his blu ray player saying there was some sort of error that came up. Is there a way he can upgrade the technology in it so it will be suited to play some of the newer disks? Or is that even the problem,IDK. Is the warranty up?

Jericho tried to play kayfabe on Lary King live and it didnt look like Rourke understood what was going on and just backed off. I agree, the celebrity matches arent any fun

QUOTE (dpd9189 @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 04:24 PM) No disrespect but I think some of you guys are missing the point. The Cubs are in great position to still get Peavy and they may end up robbing the Pads. Peavy has a NTC and will only approve a trade to the Cubs (Peavy's own words), the Padres HAVE to get rid of him because they are slicing the payroll by $30 mil. The key is this is Peavy's no trade clause. The Cubs are holding all the cards in this, not San Diego. That's why it sucks. Its not as much the Cubs trading for Peavy, it's more the Padres having to dump salary and Peavy using his NTC to block them from getting more for him. If he didn't have a NTC, he would've been dealt by now. Its going to wind up being Peavy for Vitters and a couple of guys. Its similar to last year where Santana was using his NTC to block a trade anywhere except the Mets, Yanks or Red Sox. THIS IS WHY YOU DON'T GIVE PLAYERS A NO TRADE CLAUSE. If the only thing that gives the Cubs great position to deal to the Padres is Peavys desire to go to the Cubs, then he isnt going. And you keep saying they need to slice the payroll by 30 million. Isnt thier payroll already at 40 million with all of the trades they have made as it is? Do you honestly think the Padres are going to go into the season with a 10 million dollar payroll? The Cubs arent going to steal Peavy just because he wants to go to the Cubs. He is one of the best pitchers in the league, and the return for him should be great. the cubs do not have great, I dont even think they have good anymore. there are plenty of other teams out there that can offer much better prospects, and I am sure Peavy wont have a problem going to another contender. this article right here says they want to cut 5 million, not 30 million http://www3.signonsandiego.com/stories/200...-target/?padres

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 02:55 PM) ? The article you posted says the Dodgers are now the heavy favorites to sign Wolf. With Davis and Garland in their rotation, signing another Vet would probably send Sherzer to the pen or to the minors. Can't imagine the D-Backs wanting to do that. I totally misread the quote from mlb traderumors. HOLY COW did I misread that. getting eyes checked soon.

http://www.fannation.com/si_blogs/hot_stove/posts/45182 Heyman thinks the DBacks are a heavy favorite to sign Randy Wolf now as well. If so, their rotation would be pretty damn good

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 01:51 PM) Cubs fans are PISSED about this trade. lol. Thats because they know the door is all but shut on the Peavy deal(it could still happen I guess, but I dont know how). One guy who called B&B the other day(regarding my previous post) was pissed at Bernstein just for reading it, and you could tell just by how he was phrasing it that he KNEW the Cubs werent going to be spending like they were in the past 5 years, and Peavy was slowly becoming a dream

QUOTE (Nixon @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 01:49 PM) The ones that are doing well are territories of larger states for the most part. Cuba would probably do as well as The Bahamas, maybe a little better due to their healthy medical industry. Did you sign the filibuster agreement Richard?

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 01:49 PM) What will they trade for him then? original players: Cedeno: gone Pie: Gone Ceda: gone Olson: gone All they have left of value is Vitters and no team in the world would trade Peavy for Vitters. Marshall isnt very good, they have zero MLB ready position players and no real arms left. Samarjigidjja has a no trade clsuse and signed with the Cubs to be in Chicago. They literally have nothing left. EVERYONE WANTS ANGEL GUZMAN!!!!!!

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 12:34 PM) their system is horrible...almost as bad as ours was a year and a half ago.... this is great news IMO...i think it makes a peavy deal less and less likely...especially given that they are stacking middle relievers B&B were discussing an article yesterday written in Crane magazine(i think thats what its called) discussing how the Cubs really arent expected to be big spenders once the Ricketts acquire them, mainly because of the massive amount of borrowed money that will be used to make the purchase. No more open-ended checks from the Trib company

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 12:01 PM) Rich Hill, Ronnie Cedano and Feliz Pie for Aaron Heilman. Were these not the major pieces that McFail wanted for Roberts last off season????? There were a few others IIRC, Donnie Veal and another pitcher I think

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 28, 2009 -> 11:57 AM) I don't think there would have been much outrage from Cubs fans about Pie and Cedeno leaving town, no matter what the return. Pie was a late-inning glove with almost no bat, and Cedeno is a relatively inconsistent bench player. The return from the Mariners seems accurate to me. A 5th starter/middle reliever is a decent return based on where Pie and Cedeno are right now production-wise. If Pie finds his swing somehow in Seattle, then obviously it would swing the trade in the Mariners' favor. He's still very young, so the M's have time to work with him. Pie is in Baltimore. The guy he was traded for, Garett Olsen, was traded to Seattle. Hence pie(Olsen)+ Cedeno = Heilman
