And we can have the Wright, Munoz, Rauch, Diaz, Rauch merry-go-round. JR keeps some money and we are 2 games out, and hoping to make a deal. We'll probably have to give up a top prospect or two to get some real help. Dollars or players, eitehr way we are overpaying. One thing last year with Colon's ERA, and something I really disliked about him, if he smelled a loss coming on, he practically offered up BP. It wasn't until the team showed a little spark that he beared down and pitched. At the end of last season I had the most confidence in him or our starting 5.

No it's pretty new. The problem is this one goes all over the house. It's kind of an "extra" one for IMs, etc. So a docking station isn't all that convienent.

Hard to compare but he would have been a solid #3 I'm certain and he would be eating a #1 salary. But overpaying in money may have been better than overpaying in minor league talent.

Colon wanted 4 years. At his age and physical condition, who knows if he would be pitching in year three, let alone year four. Still, he would look a whole lot better than what we have now.

Brando, are you saying you do not agree? Always getting to the point in the fastest amount of time. I hope this doesn't degenerate into a hate filled, profanity laced, thread.

That's the difference between an established player who makes $X+ and an unproven commodity that makes $X-- You pay for the experience and the safety in knowing what you will get.

LMAO. It's in the right hole. I tried a velcro arrangement but as the cover is lowered and raised it changes the amount of cord and doesn't work. I wonder if they have a docking platform or something.

I thought that one guy was a fan It is scary how poorly everyone has done from that spot.

Their system sucks. Once again, in the middle of something, I had't noticed the power connector had pulled away from the notebook. When the power hit a certain pre-defined lower limit it went into hybernation mode and pissing me off. ANyone know of a solution to keep the damn plug, plugged in?

I do like that they brought Rauch up a few days before the start. Let him get comfortable, instead of being dropped here from Mars. Let him know he's getting three starts before looking to hook em. Hell we're 0-8 from that spot. The only thing we haven't tried is leaving a healthy guy in there for a while.

one thing i want to know...
No, when you hit post and then remember something, and it also adds something to the discussion, how is it spam? Spam should be judged by itself, not the post previous. We see back to back in long threads when people are catching up and quoting previous material. Back to back doesn't automatically make it spam. Adding bulls*** to increase your post total is.

Should KW be looking for TWO starting pitchers??
If E-lo or Mark go down, we start selling and bringing in youth. No way we can win the division without those two. Sho or Garland would be problamatic, and again, we probably would be dealing Maggs at the deadline and picking up some prospects.

People need to get familar with the edit tool. If you hit post, and then remember something else, just edit your post, don't start a new one. Not every short answer is spam, not every long post isn't. I find it more annoying arguing about the spam then the actual spam.

Too bad we didn't have the same money for a solid major league starter like the Yankess, Astros, and Angels had.

THe umpire instigated the 2nd inning confrontation. CC never said a word until the ump took off his mask and started jawing at CC. ESPN announcers fell all over themselves pointing out how CC was correct.

They killed the Korean...
If we reported the murders in Chicago with the same furver as these beheadings, we'd finally realize how violent America is. On an average almost 2 people per day are murdered in Chicago. Yes beheadings are horrific, but isn't any murder a tragedy?

Not a rant, but a concern
Uribe has always gotten off to a hot start and cooled. This year he is cooling at a higher level. As long as he doesn't cool to the Mendoza line, like he has in the past, no worries.
-
Should KW be looking for TWO starting pitchers??
During the 1st inning I would have said hell yes, by the 7th, maybe not. I think KW should be looking for a #3 not a #5 and consider Sho the #5. Colon

Nike $ may make up for less contract $...?
Corporate deals are always in the backroom. When I was in High School, some of the big program HS coaches had personal shoe contracts. Guess where there kids signed with? Yep, College programs with the same shoe program. Too bad Nike didn't want him as a supervisor for their child labor camp in Malaysia.
