He was a first-round pick. No wonder he's been given so many chances.

Good for the Marlins. They got a great group of good players, they shouldn't be wasted away like the guys in Montreal.

That would be the under.

Mind showing me the pics? lol

Reynolds was giving grades in comparison to team expectations. In that respect most of the grades were pretty fair. However the 3 teams Dibble gave grades for were the worst by HR. Dibble had the Mariners with an F instead of a D, Phils with a C instead of a D, and Mets with a D instead of a B.

Personally I think your sig is awesome. Over/under on how long before you have to change it: 2 hours.

Charlotte defeated Louisville 5-3. Reed went 1-3 with a stolen base. Borchard also went 1-3 with a run. Jose Valentin went 0-3 with another 2 Ks. The game was shortened to 6 innings. Also of note is that Tim Hummel played 3B for Louisville. Box Score Bham lost 2-1 to Chattanooga. Ryan Meaux pitched pretty well in 6 innings of work. This game was also shortened, they played 7 innings. Box Score

Yeah I know. Why would a catcher be called up for Wright. If anything Diaz, Rauch, or another Knights pitcher got called up. There is no way Burke replaced Wright.

Charlotte and Bham are delayed, but Winston-Salem won 6-5 in 11. Sweeney went 0-2 before being taken out of the game. Brian Anderson went 0-5, but Nanita played his first good game of the season (at least I think it is) with a 3-5 performance. Box Score

At least all my horses did well (all top 6). Imperialism and Action This Day should be good picks for the longer races because they were down early, but came back to finish strong.

Lion Heart Action This Day Imperialism

Maggs is going to be making closer to his value than Pedro would in my opinion. However, if the Sox decided to let Maggs loose they might be able to benefit from it. The glut of good young OFers in the system could replace him and the money could be spent elsewhere. I'm just saying there are positives and negatives anytime you sign a big money player and have a budget.

Exactly. If we had that kind of money there are better ways to spend it.

He would be overpriced so we couldn't afford him. His price is more than his value now.

I wouldn't want him. He seems past his prime due to injuries.

Doesn't get much more south than that!

Exactly. You could lop Richie Sexson into that category. The question is whether Liefer will remain Russell Branyon or become Richie Sexson (or at least close). On a side note I really see Joe Borchard becoming Branyon. Again he could become Sexson, but I don't see it.

You shouldn't use gay that way. I am offended! You should be banned!

In Game 1 of the DH Bham won 6-3 over West Tenn (Cubs). Morse went 3-5, he is batting .343. The Diamond Jaxx had 14 hits, 12 off of Heath Phillips who pitching 5.2 innings, yet only scored 3 runs. Box Score Bham got the sweep over the Cubs' affiliate with a 4-0 win. Ulacia in what I am guessing was Honel's spot pitched 6 shutout innings, Kris Keller and Brian McNichol sealed the deal. They combined to only give up 3 hits. Box Score

As long as you don't speak Elven it's ok. Of course if you were to still know and quote LOTR stuff like 5 years from now, it would be very geeky because nobody else would have any clue what you are talking about.

Hmm Fangorn is way over my head? Is he a LOTR character?

All I know is that Liefer signed a minor league deal with the Brewers. So either his contract ran out or they cut him.

Actually I caught it, but forgot to mention it here. I edited it on the actual article on FutureSox.

I liked the 2nd one with the fight for the ball. Especially since it's not like Cubs fans don't fight over balls on Waveland. I didn't get most of them because they were so biased they have no credibility (of course).

Good stuff, but check your work. Worst instead of worst twice. Then instead of than. Its instead of it's. Hogs instead of Hogs'.
