  1. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 01:19 PM) 6 years each of cost certainty Feliz/Smoak would provide vs Josh Johnson's last two arb years? The Marlins management should be banished from the sport forever if they turned that down. I'd have to think really hard not to give up JJ for Feliz alone. That's how good Feliz is. But Feliz AND Smoak? Nope. No way. Not to mention you really get the feeling that Johnson's arm is going to fall off at some point.
  2. QUOTE (Sox72 @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 03:14 PM) I know it's stretching the comparison, but this means that Jason Marquis for Nelson Cruz would be a blockbuster. I don't really see it. I get the point you're trying to make, though. I was more looking for some good reasons why Granderson was perceived as such a dominant player (in my opinion). A few good statements have been thrown out there, but I'm still kind of confused as to why everyone seems to be so freaking high on him right now. I guess it could also be just a matter of him being in the news right now and the highest profile player to be moved so far. If you are the only one who is questioning this, maybe you should be the one explaining why Granderson isn't a star.
  3. Beware of the Grinch Cindy! I heard he is a mean one...
  4. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 11:27 AM) He's not a progressive. I don't think he's running the country as one. I'm a progressive and I don't even know where to start with the things I am upset with that he's doing. I hate when Beck starts with the progressives want to ruin the country talk. Like we are some evil group trying to take over. Because no one ever does that to conservatives...
  5. QUOTE (G&T @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 11:47 AM) I think kitty corner is also correct. Dictionary It said right in there that it is a derivation.
  6. D cat is my favorite of all of the mini-cats.
  7. QUOTE (G&T @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 11:21 AM) As opposed to? caddy corner
  8. QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 09:51 AM) I hate it when people say something is a moot point but when they say it it comes out as a "mute" point. It's hard for me not to shake my head or laugh. Or "kitty corner"
  9. Jerry Jordan wants his jelly jar back!
  10. QUOTE (Kenny Hates Prospects @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 10:02 AM) That wouldn't exactly be selling high. Plus our #2 HR hitter would be either Rios, Teahen, Alexei, or Beckham. Not good. Carl Crawford isn't a good return for a guy who we have no idea can stay healthy?
  11. QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 09:20 AM) Milt hates the cubs, I hate the cubs......... Milt has issues but it has never involved anything illegal as far as I recall. He seems to have a demeanor away from the park that differs greatly from his baseball persona although I could be wrong. His OBP is as sexy as it gets and he can not drive in runs. Bat him leadoff and play a little left here or there. Players seem to like it on the southside and while we hear that it is great to play at Wrigley I am not inclined to believe that is true unless the price is right. Send AJ, Guillen, Reinsdorf and Williams to meet with him and go from there. Give them Carlos Torres. As was pointed out earlier, Jurassic had milder issues but he seemd to adapt to the Cell quite well. I'd call physically attacking multiple people "illegal".
  12. QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Dec 8, 2009 -> 09:14 PM) Do we have the pieces to even make this deal? In talks with LA, they want Billingsley (among others) and in talks with the Yankees it was Hughes/Joba and others. Do we have ANYONE in this entire organization other than Peavy with the stuff that Chad Billingley has? And that's just PART of what the Jays want. I see absolutely nothing here. It also doesn't mean that Toronto can't come down in price.
  13. QUOTE (BaseballNick @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 09:05 AM) Buster Olney reports the White Sox are indeed shopping Jenks. That is a total duh. The entire planet knows it, which is why no one takes Kenny seriously when he denies anything.
  14. QUOTE (Kalapse @ Dec 8, 2009 -> 10:57 PM) He's a 29 year old speedy, great defensive centerfielder with a .374 and .395 wOBA season under his belt. He's an elite talent who's put up elite numbers in the majors with the potential to be one of the best in the game if he can stay healthy and get it back together. A career 4.9 UZR/150 in CF, a double digit walk rate and .200+ ISO in a speedy young body, you don't see that often. It's definitely a blockbuster. There are about 25 teams that would kill for Granderson. You can't deny what he brings.
  15. QUOTE (daa84 @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 07:00 AM) yeah today is the big day...stuff rarely happen the last day (which is tomorrow) as i think most teams end up leaving before noon even.....i would imagine that if somethign happens, it will be today Teams really seem to be waiting for the non-tenders to happen. Why trade for a guy, when his equal could come on the market for cheaper and for no one out of your system?
  16. This version of Scrubs is horrible minus any original characters. Even with them, this isn't a good show.
  17. Less lame people than yourself would recognize some vintage Dr Seuss when they saw it...
  18. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Dec 8, 2009 -> 09:35 PM) That's just sad. With the shoe tying incident, and blowout loss to Toronto, now the embarrassing defeat to a 1-19 team, Vinny has to be dangling from a thread. Of course he had no personnel help, but these are things that should not happen. Vinnie put his house up for sale. Maybe he knows something. After seeing this team under two coaches in a short period of time, it is pretty obvious it isn't the coach... This is just a dumb team, and they don't have a finisher, at all.

  20. Nine new neckties, nightshirt, nose.
  21. Somebody, somebody had to you see. Then she found two somebodies, Sally and me.
  22. Is there much more inflammatory rhetoric than slavery comparisons in this debate?
