QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 16, 2011 -> 04:28 PM) I am just trying to see where you are coming from. Would you also say that Lance Berkman is a better hitter than Albert Pujols? It's like you are trying to say this this 40 games in the season defines a whole career or something. Is Berkman having a better season than Pujols? Absolutely. Does that mean Berkman is the better overall player than Pujols? Not even close, it just means exactly what I said, that Berkman is having a better season so far. Believe it or not, but players don't have to perform to their expectations or career norms.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 16, 2011 -> 04:11 PM) You said they were the 2 worst players and I wanted to know whether or not you believed that???? This season, yes, they are (actually were, since the numbers were updated last night) the two worst players in baseball this season, and yes, I believe it....why wouldn't I?

Personally, I thought Easy A was awful. I think I chuckled once. But Emma Stone is yummy.

Oh man, those chained cannonballs in The Borgias were NASTY! Also, I had no idea that the family in The Borgias is the main family in Assassins Creed II and Brotherhood. I thought it was just the same time period, not the same characters.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 16, 2011 -> 11:17 AM) I did not ask who was having a better season, I asked who you thought was the better player. Well obviously Crawford is the best of those players by far. And Pierre is certainly not the worst player in baseball either. What's your point?

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 16, 2011 -> 01:49 AM) So, MotorStorm Apocalypse is mad fun. The dynamic settings, massive tracks, city setting, are all just crazy. That being said, the only way to unlock things is online. This is annoying. Why is that annoying? PSN is back up and running.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 16, 2011 -> 01:40 AM) So you think that Mark Ellis, Yuniesky Betancourt, Brendan Ryan, and Brent Morel are all better players than Crawford? Morel isn't a qualified player yet, but yeah, I think the other 3 are having better seasons that Crawford to this point, but they are all having bad years.

LOL, the day PSN comes back, my PS3 breaks again. I knew the day would come, since I went with the quick $50 fix instead of Sony's $150, but the timing is comical. Luckily it managed to come back on long enough for me to eject my disc, and copy my game saves to a flash drive.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ May 16, 2011 -> 01:57 AM) Do you really believe that Carl Crawford is the second worst player in MLB? Of starting players, sure, why not? And actually, just within the past 10 minutes or so, the numbers were update, Crawford is actually tied for 5th worst now with 4 other players. Juan is still leading by a decent margin though.

QUOTE (hi8is @ May 16, 2011 -> 01:36 AM) Cut our losses. Later JP. That's what I'm sayin.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ May 16, 2011 -> 01:11 AM) Yeah that is true. But Day had a 1.52 WHIP compared to Renenowsky's 0.38. Actually, his WHIP is 0.315. He pitched 2 perfect innings today.

QUOTE (knightni @ May 16, 2011 -> 12:22 AM) Yep. Lol, that would suck.

And just to fuel the fire, Juan now owns a -1.2 WAR. Making him the worst player in baseball by DOUBLE that of the 2nd worst player, which is Carl Crawford at -0.6. How does that one sit with you guys? Still don't want to release him and have to eat $4M or so?

Cool thread. I guess he gives up a run on Monday then.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 15, 2011 -> 11:46 PM) It's like Rienzo and Petricka right now. That should be their target early in the draft. They will probably go OF or 3B.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 15, 2011 -> 11:28 PM) Infante with a decent outing in his AAA debut. NSS's boy Remenowsky just has amazing peripherals in AA. Look at his WHIP. lol.

QUOTE (Springfield SoxFan @ May 15, 2011 -> 10:40 PM) Can Lillibridge play third? No

QUOTE (T R U @ May 15, 2011 -> 11:28 PM) I thought Pierre was the worst player in baseball? He is, but that doesn't mean he has to have the worst AVG in baseball.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ May 15, 2011 -> 09:41 PM) it really isn't a ton, Dodgers paid a lot of that deal, basically any guy making the minimum can give what Pierre is giving at this point Yeah, we are only paying Pierre $5M this year. So if we cut him, we are only on the hook for the remaining $4M or so.

Fun stats on Bautista. He has 16 HR this year. The Minnesota twins have 18 HR this year.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 15, 2011 -> 04:23 PM) STOP PITCHING TO JOSE BAUTISTA Seriously, he deserves the Bonds treatment at this point. I get that Adam Lind and Edwin Encarnacion can hit home runs too, but they don't beat you at near the regularity as Bautista. He is absolutely ridiculous right now. Can you imagine if Williams had actually been able to acquire him last year? Yeah, but he would sit on the bench while Pierre played LF. Unless Bautista took 3B, of course.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 15, 2011 -> 07:35 PM) I literally cried. And if I spend 5-10 minutes, I can find the thread on the forum I used to post at where I went off on Kenny and how terrible the trade was. Found it pretty quickly. From when I was 16.... Possibly a slight over-reaction. lol. This was before I had any knowledge of the minor leagues and who was who.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ May 15, 2011 -> 06:22 PM) I don't recall there being too much complaining about the Danks/McCarthy deal. Perhaps you're the one revising history. I literally cried. And if I spend 5-10 minutes, I can find the thread on the forum I used to post at where I went off on Kenny and how terrible the trade was.
