    Jeff Abbott with the game-winning hit to clinch the pennant in 2000.

     

    Man, that happened in like May. We clinched the division on a day we lost in the Metrodome. It may have even been a hint of our ten year nightmare in Minnesota that was about to begin.

  2. Surely worse things have been said about a professional athlete than that he's overweight and has bad facial hair.

     

    The only BS going around here is wanting to reward a player for his tenure or how much you like him with the closer's role. Ozzie has basically managed the bullpen by-situation with the exception of withholding Bobby until the 8th/9th inning. This no longer makes sense when he's the 3rd-5th best reliever on your team.

     

    Like what was said earlier, Bobby needs to turn in some 1-2-3 innings in lower leverage situations before you even consider him for another save opportunity.

    being the year 2010 I would have expected us to have better plack technologies. We should have had some where the hat changes. for each year he played with a team he get to have that team hat for 1 min. and it just loops around.

     

    12 min with Clev.

    3 with Phi

    3.5 min with CHW

    .5 min with LAD

    1 Min with MIN

     

    This is awesome. I imagine one of those morphing things where his face actually ages in the process too.

     

    Too bad MLB won't even consider the technology for another 50 years probably.

    I hope he IS in the home run contest to make it f***ing interesting.

    DIdn't you read the article somebody posted with stats that indicate performance does not dip after playing in the contest?

    Put Paulie in the HR contest!

     

    Yeah, stats may indicate that. But let us not forget what happened to Paulie last time he entered the derby. Not to mention the first half of the following season
