max power

I really think some of you guys go way too far. Does anyone really know that he is a lazy, terrible human being with a bad attitude? I haven't read anything like that. If there is anything like that, please post it. I just see him struggle at the plate and get extremely frustrated. Yes, he is awful right now. He knows it, and he is pissed about it. Why all the lazy and "he doesn't care" comments? Seems like he is beating himself up over it, to me, if anything.

QUOTE (Stan Bahnsen @ Jun 7, 2011 -> 04:43 PM) You just don't get it. We ARE 6 out. That's what IS important. Loss column and win column mean nothing right now. The six out means about nothing right now too. Its the beginning of june. You people are crazy.

Dunn's appendix is like Samson's hair.

Happy birthday. My mom's b-day too. We'll be at the game.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 06:09 PM) Haha, yes I'm sure they're going to sustain that winning percentage for another 4 straight months. If they win about 6 games in a row, or like 8 out of 10, the percentage goes way down. You are making too much out of that number considering how much of the season is left.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 5, 2011 -> 12:26 PM) Teahen was hitting sub-.200 at Charlotte. In how many games?

Paulie went last year. I forget how. Someone got hurt or something.

For the smokers out there in soxtalk land (I'm not one of them). During the broadcast today- Steve Stone: Well occasionally you have to say thank goodness for four twenty.

Alright. Thank you.

Can you delete the account "Maxwell". Its also me, and I don't know why I have two accounts. I think I've asked you guys to do this in the past, but it never happened.

I'd like to leave rios out there most days. Rios is still playing great D and lilly looks shakey out there. He has been making most of the plays, but his D doesn't inspire confidence. I'd Bench Dunn twice as often instead. So maybe Carlos rests one day a week, Rios two, and Dunn three. Lilly flower gets one day off. It'll never happen, but I can dream.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Nov 18, 2010 -> 08:38 PM) I don't know how Damon would really work on this team in its current form. He can't play LF or CF, those are occupied already. He'd only be useful as a DH and he did not produce anywhere near what a DH should have last year. He'd fit in real well as a #3 hitter behind Beckham and ahead of whoever bats 4th, but I feel like he has to play a defensive position (RF isn't really an option). I thought your #3 hitter was supposed to be good?

I agree with fathom.

QUOTE (joeynach @ Dec 5, 2008 -> 09:29 PM) I wouldnt do this deal unless Im getting at least Gallardo back...if not Gallardo + Hart, which would probably require some throw in on our part...Broadway, Richard, etc? Then trading Dye is not a big deal which you would use to get back some of the young pitcher(s) u traded away with Jenks., Dye for Edwin Jackson being ideal. At the point our rotation would be primed with young quality rather proven arms poised to compete for several years to come. Your sig should really be updated.

QUOTE (Jimmywins1 @ Dec 5, 2008 -> 09:24 PM) By the way, is this actually a real rumor, or has it only been mentioned on the radio? What separates real rumors from other rumors? It being on the radio as opposed to print?

I don't see how you can complain when you have a choice. In cuba there is no choice. 'Ju wanna be like a sheep, like all those other people mang, baa-aa-aa! baa-aaa-aaa! ju wanna work eight, ten f***ing hours, ju own nothing, ju got nothing? ju wanna chivato on every corner... ? I got octopus coming out my f***ing ears, mang. ju wanna be a sheep? baa-aa-aa-aa! baa-aa-aa-aa!'

Then I guess you'll have to wear what they tell you to.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Dec 5, 2008 -> 08:42 PM) Meh I wear a suit to work everyday. It's overrated. I wish they'd let me wear t-shirts, shorts, and shoes with holes in them. Well, you are free to get whatever job you want here.

Nah, I've just always been disgusted by the way he looks when he licks his hand. Its just that and nothing more. If I walked around slobbering on my hand all day people would think I was gross too. Especially if I looked like I actually enjoyed it, like he does.

It was pretty ridiculous. I defended that statement like 10 times before giving up. I think most people read into it too much or took it out of context.

QUOTE (G&T @ Dec 5, 2008 -> 07:03 AM) KW's idea of a 1 or 2 is different than most people's idea. He'll take 1 or 2 potential. Last year he called Floyd and Danks 1 and 2...and everyone laughed. I didn't.

Lets all get pissed off and swear about hypothetical situations.

Hard to bet when you don't even know who will be on each team.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Nov 27, 2008 -> 03:21 PM) Chris Dickerson is super toolsy, more of an athlete then a ballplayer, but he still has the ability to succeed on the Major League Level. The main concern is his age, he has not developed as quickly as the Reds would have liked. It’s a very real possibility that he’s just a late-bloomer. In that case, Bailey + Dickerson for Dye is more than acceptable. Sounds like someone we already have on our team - BA.

QUOTE (heirdog @ Nov 17, 2008 -> 05:40 PM) Wait a minute...are you a MAX Weber disciple? I mean your waxing philosophical on us there, kiddo! I don't know who that is, actually but I am reading a bit.
