Torii Hunter is a little b****. This is the guy who makes an idiot out of himself everytime someone throws inside on him He gets all pissed off and pouts, until someone gets in front of him and then he acts like he was going to charge the mound. This guy always has s*** to say, and has been pitiful this year when his team really needed him to step to the next level.

San Diego has a ton of pitching prospects, as well as Oakland.

Is that typical? I don't think I have ever heard that before, but then again I am following the minors closer than I ever have before too...

Did we ever get his stat line?

The funny thing is that our RPI rating is terrible because we have lost to so many bad teams.

Wow. I do wonder if he could ever catch on as a middle reliever somewhere? Heck in Detroit he would be in the starting 5 already...

Yankee fans are notoriously brutal. The legend is that LF seats are the worst place in the world to sit if you are an opposing fan or player.

Let me make sure that I understand this right. They are leaving to finish their degrees, but are coming back to play baseball next year right?

Hey man, get off of his mom... I just did.

Tim Hummel is not a "good" prospect. At best Hummel=Graffanino.

AL Cy Young: Esteban Loiaza AL MVP: Carlos Delgado NL Cy Young: Russ Ortiz NL MVP: Albert Pujols

He could have just as easily gave the old, "I want to see what my options are" line of BS.

Magglio Ordonez

Is that the right idea?

I'd participate, but I can't get your mom off of the phone, tell the b**** to quit calling me!

Problem is only about 20 of them are about him!

That is SOOO yesterday

Birmingham? Heck why take Bullard's job, when is pitching better than Koch???

Labor day? More like 4th of July!

Reed hasn't proven anything to the experts yet. He certainly is doing better than expected (understatement of the year, maybe?) but he has to prove it on the MLB level. Reed will be a solid player, but he doesn't have the pop that a Maggs or a Frank has and won't steal 50 bases. I think he will settle in as a nice player, but let's not anoint him a perennial all-star just yet. Sad thing is, Reed likely will not even win the Southern League MVP award, despite his unbelievable year. Out of curiousity give us a major league player that you equate Reed to. I keep hearing about him, and how he is overachieving (in a lot of peoples eyes). I am curious what you think Rex.

Schow and Sullivan both have team options for 2k4 right? I think Gordon does as well. Anyone have anymore info there?

This might have been one of the funniest threads I have ever read. Here are my random thoughts on it, in no particular order -I don't know who said it, but I would agree Roman=Anthony -Looking at Konerko's #'s he was probably middle of the pack if you leave out his best year, but what is the logic of leaving out the best year? Doesn't that mean you should leave out his worst year to balance it? -My original question was never answered, how does Konerko's bad year, have any bearing on how bad Billy Koch has been? -It took 21 pages, but Yansy finally actually brought some stats to an arguement about a player... how it took that long, I don't know. -Maybe that thread rating idea wasn't so bad after all We could have it like homeland securitites rating system so people would know that there is a war going on within a thread and not need to waste their time reading it -Just for giggles Limas 2003 stats http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/prof...le?statsId=5212 Madduxs stats http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/prof...le?statsId=3933 Lima is having a much better year
