barnes and noble dot com had it for 30% off. I ordered the hard back and next day delivery for cheaper than buying it in the store.

My wife made me preorder it in April.

Acevedo signs with the Blue Jays. I would guess that he would become their closer. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/gen/wire?...sageId=17081394

Could be interesting, are you interesting in doing the work, or just the critisizing? I would keep it very simple. The O/U is recorded for each gm at the USA site so there's nothing to calculate or anything like that. Essentially every gm day thread would include a link to the usa site that breaks down the teams & players for that game. Then those who are playing pick O/U. If you want to keep track of all of the picks and standings and such, feel free. I wouldn't mind at all if you kept in on here. Is there any other interest in it besides the 3 of us?

Konerko also had a couple of real good AB's against Martinez seeing about a dozen pitches in them and ended up getting on both times.

Could be interesting, are you interesting in doing the work, or just the critisizing? me? or JUGGERNAUT? I wasn't criticizing. I love the PTC and if we have another game will probably jump in on that also. Not you Tex, sorry that's why I didn't include your post. I wasn't sure if I was seen as criticizing JUGGERNAUT for his idea. I didn't intend to. I also didn't take his comments as criticizing the PTC, just the team's efforts. It certainly is more exciting when you have to spend a minute or two with the box score to separate four or five players. I proposed a PTS as in pick to suck during one of my Sox really really suck phases. Who's going to have the most errors with game losing errors counting as double. How about bonus points on PTC? Only if the Sox lose. Nah, it is an old thing that goes back a while. I wasn't on Juggy for his idea, it is an old thing with us...

Besides, Roman is what 16? He needs to grow as a person. He isnt gonna do that following or trying to make others happy. Every great lesson I have learned, is through a mistake of my own. He is going to do a lot of learning them

This may sound strange, but Brando is really growing on me. I actually look forward to reading his babble. Compared to what he is repsonding to, that isn't babble at all...

It is almost too bad we don't see Wood. Carlos would be drooling.

Maybe they can't live with out their love and affection?

Start? Crede is on a 14 -33 streak raising his BA 32 pts, and his OPS almost 80 points. I would say he is officially hot.

unless he was one of us here, i think he got banned. he used to talk a lot of s*** on the Twins board. He used to pound the Cubs board mercilessly too.

Man I forgot all about him. I wonder where he went off to?

As long as the Sanchez kid (ss prospect) is included in any deal done for Colon I am for it. We have pitching in the system, we NEED as SS prospect big time.

Yes, I'm still there, though a whole bunch of the 'good ones' are here now. I'll probaly do both, and try to cut down a bit, too! Bring the good ones over here. That is what a bunch of us who used to post at ESPN did. Haven't looked back since.

BTW I am flattered to be even mentioned in any of these threads... Thanks

I was with you Brando. I was a Jimenez supporter as long as he was making the basic plays, and hustling. Now he has quit hustling, has frequent lapses in the field, and now isn't hitting or getting on base.

He wouldn't make any errors with it. He would spend the whole game standing there staring at it wondering WTF is this?

Heck a good place to start is look at what players practice before a game. It is batting practice. Who is out fielding? Most of the time it is the pitchers, coaches and batboys. The regular fielders are no where to be seen. How much time to they spend bunting? How much time do they spend on situational hitting?
