QUOTE(Bonderman38 @ Jun 27, 2007 -> 02:19 AM) I say wins is like comparing runs scored for a hitter. You control when you get on base, but you don't control if you get knocked in. Just like the pitchers control their preformance, but not their offenses. I like the comparison, but runs scored also has a lot to do with the runner (going from first to third, scoring on a double from first, etc.). It's pretty obvious wins are a crappy way to evaluate a pitchers individual performance.

No work tomorrow, Wednesday, or Thursday. I think I'll be at all of the next 3.

Braun is an absolute butcher in the field (although very good with the bat), but a deal centered around Gallardo would be ok with me. In my opinion, no Gallardo, no deal.

QUOTE(Shadows @ Jun 21, 2007 -> 04:06 PM) Hey EXCELLENT example.. a closer who throws 100 mph and had amazing stuff, this really compares well to Egbert and every pitcher that Cheat named.. Wasn't comparing them at all, other than their age and what level they were at when they were called up, which I thought was your biggest problem with Egbert (since you've yet to mention a single other thing about him, other than the fact that you don't like him) from reading these posts.

QUOTE(Shadows @ Jun 21, 2007 -> 02:42 PM) Because hes 24 years old and in AA and hes all the sudden going to come in and be in our rotation? I personally don't think hes ever going to pitch in the MLB, and the love fest with him is just mind boggling to me. Yea, calling up 24 year old pitchers from AA never works

Artical? Thats an interesting spelling

Congrats to Mark!

PNC or Camden. Both parks are great, it's tough to choose. Walking around outside of Camden (near the warehouse) is great, and PNC is just fantastic. If I had to, I'd probably give the edge to PNC, just because of the view it offers of downtown Pittsburgh and the rivers.

This is a much better pick than the first one. I don't know much about it, but just from reading that little bit, I like it.

I can't decide between MLB 2k7 or MLB 2007: The Show. I've read horrible reviews about 2k7, but I don't personally own a PS2 (my roommates this summer do, not sure about my roommates next year). Should I take the risk and buy the better game, or should I buy the crappy xbox one that I know I'll be able to play? I really need a MLB baseball game though.. MVP 06 isn't doing it for me as much anymore, and MVP 05's rosters are too old for me, and my computers controller isn't working, which is necessary to play it on the computer (although it was an excellent, excellent game; I just don't want to go through the effort to buy an updated roster set and the game for a console).

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 7, 2007 -> 03:37 PM) Terrible. Just remember, Williams, we had an opportunity to select him. But.. we got the guy who can throw fast! He can't do anything else, but he throws fast!

I don't like this pick. You need to have multiple pitches to succeed in the majors, and from what ESPN says, his secondary stuff isn't that good. I know that people seem to love the hard throwing pitchers, but personally, I'd rather you knew how to pitch with multiple successful pitches.

I'm already disappointed.. *sigh*

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 4, 2007 -> 02:42 PM) In fact, I guess you could say he took Rowand's place on a World Series winning roster and the result was a drop down to third place. The "drop down to third place" was a result of regression by the pitching staff, not by the offense. Oh, and we still won 90 games last year, which is something a lot of people seem to forget. I don't know where I sit on this deal. On the one hand, I see MMac from last year, completely dominant. On the other hand, I see Rowand, who is one of my favorite players. My brain says no, but my heart says yes.

QUOTE(briguy27 @ Jun 4, 2007 -> 12:58 PM) he decided in like 35 seconds. u have 23 hours and 65 seconds to decide still- take your time Brilliant math skills

It's never funny when your favorite team does horrible. At least, thats what I think.

QUOTE(TheOcho @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 06:46 PM) Knocked Up was pretty damn funny. I fully agree. There were some priceless lines in it

Only one? You haven't been reading many posts around here it seems I lost faith on the Wednesday Twin game. That game really, really hurt me. I can't really say why, but it felt like my heart was taken out and beaten to a pulp. I'll still root for this team as much as I can, but yea, this season falling further and further away.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ May 31, 2007 -> 08:57 PM) And what happens at the door? Do they have, as my gay friends have so hilariously put it, "Gay-dar"(rhymes with radar) to detect the homosexuals and turn them away? Not all homosexual men are the stereotypical flamboyant feminine men. They must be friends with Bender. Amy: So what do you think of that guy by the bar? Leela: I don't know. Maybe? Bender: Forget it, he's gay. Leela: What? How can you tell? Bender: I just know these things. I've got what they call gaydar. Leela: There's no such thing. Bender: No? [He pulls out a machine with a small antenna on it from his chest cabinet. The antenna swivels around.] OK, I got a lock on him. [The machine beeps.] Yep! He's gay! Amy: Are you sure? Bender: Definitely. Unless I'm getting interference from a gay weather balloon.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 31, 2007 -> 11:33 AM) We have a player just like this on our team right now... His name is AJ, remember the guy who spiked the MVP just because he could? I agreed with the first sentence

To quote IlliniKrush on a previous game in this series: QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ May 29, 2007 -> 03:32 AM) If you thought watching yesterday's game on TV sucked, you should have watched it surrounded by 27,000 fans wearing Morneau and Mauer jersey shirts like I did. That sure blew.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ May 30, 2007 -> 11:59 AM) id put my dick on the line that 30 out of 30 educated baseball general managers would take jose reyes over hanley ramirez 7 times a week and twice on sunday. There aren't 30 educated baseball GMs, so you're pretty safe to say that.
