QUOTE (kapzk @ May 24, 2011 -> 09:27 PM) Can some1 clarify the rain delay rules.... so if this game gets called off do they just resume play of bottom of the 4th on another day or do they start the game completely over again? Because the game isn't half way played, it starts all over.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 24, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) We haven't won yet. But Quentin DOES have 2 HR. Can't assume. Again, I don't care about the stats. A two run lead in the middle of the game is way better than a 0-0 game at first pitch.

Wow. Hopefully everyone is OK, forget about baseball.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 24, 2011 -> 09:08 PM) I'm saying if the game ended right now because of the weather. So I am. I could give a s*** less about the stats. I want the win.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 24, 2011 -> 05:26 PM) Javy Vazquez had $22 million or so sitting on his contract and had basically been left off of the postseason roster. We got the Braves to absorb that entire contract and got something with a chance of success back. A year later, the Braves got a great season out of Vazquez, and they dumped him on the Yankees for Melky Cabrera, who they cut within the space of a year for being terrible. Not to mention it was while the biggest economic meltdown in 4 generations was going on, they got the Braves to pick up that entire contract.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 24, 2011 -> 09:00 PM) That's actually been my #1 concern as well. lol. I'd be more worried about the win, but maybe that is just me...

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 24, 2011 -> 03:33 PM) But don't you think they consider his opinion as to which players to sign/acquire? They listen to Ozzie for pete's sakes... And honestly if Hahn is more of the "stats" guy, that only made it more likely he would have been going after Dunn as well.

QUOTE (The Baconator @ May 24, 2011 -> 03:34 PM) Ken_Rosenthal Ken Rosenthal #Padres Class AAA infielder Alex Cintron retires. Agent Burton Rocks says desire was there, but past surgeries affected him physically. #MLB 4 minutes ago Both pieces of that deal are now retired with my hero Jeff Bajenaru working as a pitching coach for one of the low minors teams with Arizona.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 24, 2011 -> 02:44 PM) I'm more venting towards the general feeling around here than you specifically. I'd be fine with losing Ozzie at this point. I would hope that highly capable Asst GM is contributing to the decisions of the current regime rather than doing absolutely nothing because he's second fiddle. The irony being he probably negotiated those Dunn and Konerko deals, as he job has always been said to center on contract negotiations specifically.

W almost got hit with an evil baseball yesterday.

Now what letter are we on?

Just a minute. No one is sticking a needle in me!

f*** the Heat!

Because I used "would" I was obviously making it past tense.

Zsa Zsa Gabor would have smacked the taste out of my mouth.

X'ing out my last post seems pointless.

Why it sounds so simple a caveman could do it.

QUOTE (onedude @ May 24, 2011 -> 12:51 PM) that is what i thought. The chick in your avy looks like she just finished barfing up her lunch before her photoshoot.

QUOTE (Art Vandelay @ May 24, 2011 -> 11:33 AM) I am going in today to sign my offer letter and get the background check started and also complete the drug test. It's been a long 14 months but I'm finally back! Congrats!
