QUOTE (bighurt4life @ May 17, 2010 -> 09:16 AM) I will go on the record as saying that Brent will be a more than adequate replacement for Tehean in 2012. His defense is absolutely stunning, i watched him in a couple of spring training games and he didn't do anything but make pick after pick while showing a strong, accurate arm. I also think that his offense will be more than adequate, he'll hit for average with some pop, probably around 15-20hr's and lots of doubles to go along with good speed for a 3B. His power numbers will be deflated this year at B-Ham but don't let that fool you, he can hit it out of the park regularly. One of my favorite prospects right now. Yep, Brent is my fav. prospect in our system. I always have a liking for 3B (Crede, Fields, Beckham) and now Morel. Also, we have chats on Facebook from time to time, so we are basically best friends. lol.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 17, 2010 -> 02:10 PM) If you look at the payroll coming off of the books in the next two years, it is more realisitic than you think. Yeah, I guess Konerko and Jenks are about $20 right there, but I am still not sure I want sooo much money tied up into Peavy and Gonzalez.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 17, 2010 -> 02:06 PM) We wouldn't trade for him without a very, very good understanding of a contract extension. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised to find out that is what has stopped past potential deals for him., A contract extension we wouldn't be able to afford anyway.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 17, 2010 -> 12:43 PM) Why is everyone talking Salty? Give me Max Ramirez. Let me ask you this.....who is better, Salty, or Ramirez?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 17, 2010 -> 11:28 AM) I hate the idea located in your second sentence. If we were to trade for Adrian, or any big named young player, it wouldn't just be for 2010. A guy like that becomes the Paul Konerko style anchor of the middle of the line up for many, many years. For some reason people took the same mentality towards Rios and Peavy. The difference is that this is Gonzalez final contract year, w/ a club option for 2011. Rios is here through 2014 w/ 2015 club option, and Peavy is here through 2012 with 2013 club option. That is NOT the same, especially considering that Gonzalez will make more money than both those guys in his new contract.

Is anyone else happy that the Padres are doing well, and thus they will probably hold on to Adrian Gonzalez and not entice Kenny to throw what is left of our farm at him? In an already seemingly lost season, I think the only thing that is worse is Kenny trying to win over fans by trading all of our best prospects to reel in Gonzalez to a team that will probably never catch the Twins.

Morel, 2-3. AVG up to .308. Do work Brent!

G-FORCE!!!!

G-Force!

It's a little messed up right now. It thinks Andruw Jones is Paul Konerko...

QUOTE (TitoMB @ May 15, 2010 -> 02:10 PM) 3 games in a row without a homer.. now we're losing our only edge. 4 straight now. 2-2 over those 4 games.

Morel with 3 errors today. Ouch!

This % is coming down quite a bit. I guess the weather heats up, and we hits less HR? Hmm....

WHO!?!?!?!? Not my generation. But yeah, I have heard of him.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 13, 2010 -> 07:58 PM) Short 2-3, .409. He has 65 hits in 34 games. Would be amazing if he could develop a better eye. 3 walks in 34 games won't cut it. I am no expert on K-rates, but his doesn't seem that bad to me. I mean, it's obviously high, but nothing like Josh Fields was, yes?

Well, now that I am home, I have not worked out in a week. I really need to get a gym membership soon. I have lost a pound or two, but I also have not been eating much either..... Starting Weight (4/7/10) - 272 LB Current Weight (5/14/10) - 259 LB Total Loss: 13 lbs

QUOTE (flavum @ May 13, 2010 -> 08:02 PM) Doyle mowing them down at Kannapolis again. He may be in line for a promotion. He needs to be promoted real soon. He is too old for Low-A. Hopefully the org can push him to AA by seasons end and he can become a decent prospect for us at 24 years old.

MHizzle is right. She said in this video "Just can't mess with size 32Ds" And yes, I would fap to that vid.

We must be extremely unlucky if we put the ball into play more than any other team, but get a hit worse than 28 other teams. Either our hitters are weak pansies, or we are unlucky w/ our hit placement.

When I broke in my glove, I put a ball in it, put rubberbands around it for a couple days. Then I pushed it completely inside out and just started throwing it against a brick wall. Then a drove over it w/ my car while it was still inside out. Then just kept bending the webbing back and forth. It worked for me. I am not a fan of the really flimsy gloves, so where mine is at is perfect. It's loose enough to open and close easily, but not loose enough where it folds into itself. Also, it is signed by Floyd, so I get extra luck from that. Haha.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 10, 2010 -> 08:41 PM) Morel 3-4, HR, 3 RBIs, SB. Now at .324. I really hope Morel makes AAA before the years end and can take over for Teahen by 2012 at the latest.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 11, 2010 -> 01:33 PM) I do love me some Amanda Bynes. Good god, she is sexy.

Well I am a big fan of Katy Perry being sexy, but not even top 15 really.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 10, 2010 -> 10:20 PM) Good call on Buy.com Will save me $20, but not sure when I will receive it. Hopefully I can just play it at my friends house for a few days before I get it in the mail. Screw it. Shipping is only free on 7-9 day shipping. I don't want to wait 9 days and not get the special clothes to save $17. I mean, if this was not a game where I wanted to form an online posse with friends, I would wait the 7-9 days, but I don't want to be left out while my friends for a posse and have a full week of playing before me. Impatient, sure, but oh well.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ May 10, 2010 -> 02:18 PM) buy.com has Red Dead Redemption available for pre-order at $46 with free shipping. If you buy a lot of s*** off Amazon the $60 + $20 Amazon gift card and free shipping is still probably the better deal if not Buy.com looks like the winner. Good call on Buy.com Will save me $20, but not sure when I will receive it. Hopefully I can just play it at my friends house for a few days before I get it in the mail.
