GREEDY

QUOTE (tommy @ Apr 12, 2009 -> 01:44 PM) Alexei walks. alert the media.

It is the flags fault... Punto NEVER makes a mistake.

Personally, I f***ing hope Deep Dish lands in the minors with Jerry Owens.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Apr 12, 2009 -> 12:42 PM) I am guessing Mark Buerhle will be at top form today. He has something to prove after opening day Maybe he and Alexei will resurrect this Easter.

... I just crush alot.

QUOTE (qwerty @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 04:32 PM) On december 23rd my father was walking into a jewel with my mother and he fell and cracked his knee cap. Right before you walk in there is a sign that states that they or anyone else associated (snow plow outfit) with them are not liable for any accident that may occur... natural or not. My mother helped him back to the car and went into the jewel to speak her mind. She walks in, goes to the help desk, and what do you know, the same sign is right behind the help desk. She talks to the manager and they claimed nothing could be done because the snow was an ''act of god''. We talked to the lawyer and found out they would have been entirely in the right... but only if the snow had not been plowed... plowing it altered the ''act of god''. Jewel and the snow plow outfit went on to pay for my fathers surgery 50-50 down the middle... though not without fight. So they sued a snow plow company for plowing snow?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 27, 2009 -> 10:01 AM) Here's a few things I've noticed in my drafts, and since I am done I will release my knowledge in case any of you have some late ones scheduled. Clayton Kershaw I have no idea why IDIOTS out there are not more all over this kid. He's going to be a top ten starting pitcher this year. Think of the run support, plus his natural progression. I'm calling 17 wins and he's going like pick 140 (to me) in every draft. Last year was a primer, this year he busts out. Just look to his 20/4 K/BB ratio in Spring. IDIOTS. Matt Wieters I've seen people dropping this kid. They are nuts. He's probably the best catcher in baseball right now, but the Orioles are (smartly) playing the arb clock game with him. Draft him and patch him with a guy like AJ or Kelly Shoppach for a month and a half and then laugh as you have the best catcher from then on... Closers I laugh anytime someone takes a closer before like round 14. Guys like Hanrahan, Motte, and Devine can be had super late. HILARIOUS! Elijah Dukes He's going undrafted in a lot of leagues, which is ridonk. Sure, he's a nutjob, but he's also a nutjob who has a job all to his own this year and will easily put up 25/25, if not 30/30. RIDONK I SAY! Nick Adenhart I know he's had elbow problems in the past... but he's having a solid Spring and he certainly has a job all to his own with Santana and Escobar out of the rotation. Buy now, and worst-case you drop him. The upside far outweighs the risk of taking him in the 2nd to last round of your draft. There's a lot more, but these are the glaring problems. Also, if some dork drops David Price in your league, pick him up. It is downright hillarious how bad things are going for your predictions only three games into the season. Jinx city! Kershaw: Looked Fine Wieters: AAA Hanrahan: Looked Fine Devine: Most likely out for season Motte: Roughed up and might have lost job Dukes: Not starting Adenhart: Deceased Price: AAA

QUOTE (WinningUgly85 @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 03:58 PM) It's not like he bad mouthed the white sox organization or did anything wrong here. It just came down to how healthy he could stay last season. Wrong.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 03:25 PM) '97 mitsubishi eclipse (i love em) What did you think of the new Fast and Furious?

Institute "you lose, you pay court costs and lawyer fees" into the USA and frivolous lawsuits like this one go bye, bye.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 11:37 AM) Wow. Just wow. You remind me of a poster we used to have... hmmm... What? You don't find it odd that a major league baseball player died in an '01 Mitsubishi Eclipse Convertible? That is a high school parking lot car.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Apr 10, 2009 -> 08:22 AM) yea i hope fans dont boo him evertime. I don't think they will, your average Sox fan knows very little of the ongoing tiff between Crede and management.

I'm outside the gate right now.... already boo'ing that mother f***er.

QUOTE (Whitewashed in '05 @ Apr 9, 2009 -> 05:53 PM) RIP... That Eclipse was mangled. I thought it was a convertible. It looks like he took the hardest hit being the passenger. Who was he riding with? Did a 16 year old fat girl pick him up on the way home from mini-putt?

I love the defense that Rongey and others are taking: "Give the guy a few weeks, he came through for us last year". No he didn't. His OBP was .29 He is not a major league baseball player. He is not a starting center fielder. He is not a leadoff hitter on a contender. He is not a leadoff hitter. Bring the boos. Also, bring the booze.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Apr 8, 2009 -> 03:36 PM) Someone needs to learn how to take a joke. Dukes' road beef needs to learn how to take a pill.

QUOTE (TheHolyBovine @ Apr 7, 2009 -> 09:42 PM) It doesn't really matter how many kids Dukes has, either. I look at it as a positive! At least we know he gets good wood on it...

QUOTE (JDsDirtySox @ Apr 7, 2009 -> 09:20 PM) and now has a special assistant that goes everywhere with him to make sure he stays out of trouble. So???? Tadahito had a sidekick... everyone just assumed he was a translater; but really he was there to make sure Gooch didn't have to blame it on the AL-AL-AL-ALCOHOL.

QUOTE (scenario @ Apr 7, 2009 -> 08:37 PM) He's not 'immature'. He's not a borderline bad guy. He's a psychopath who took pictures a gun with his cellphone and text messaged them to his ex explaining how he was going to kill her. No.... just no!!!!! IPhone pics suck, it was prolly a picture of his crucifix.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Apr 7, 2009 -> 09:01 PM) Why the hell was he in the game in the top of the 9th????? Good question. Really, someone needs to ask Ozzie this tomorrow.

Elijah Dukes for Adam Russell etc. is laughable. The Nats would start with Poreda... start with Poreda. He is 24 and posted an .860 OPS in '08. He is a legit 30/30 candidate. I'd trade ANY of our minor league talent outside of Beckham for him. Yep.

I can handle Murph's Cub love, but I can no longer tolerate, The way he will take a call, then not let the caller say anything. It is hard to explain but the minute a caller starts talking, Murph is trying to interrupt him, if you don't want to hear what he has to say... don't take the call Murph. It is like Murph thinks he needs to be talking 99.99% of the time. And of course, the ads will drive you ape s***.

I am not certain that I would have added an aggressive qb to our current team but I can't help but be excited. Best not stop here Jerry! Whoohoooo!

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 07:41 PM) The fact that Dallas McPherson is still looked at as a third baseman is just stunning to me. We are a little short a 1B considering there has to be a better than 25% chance that PK does at least one stint on the 15 this season... especially if he is struggling. Also, if we are rebuilding or at least kind of rebuilding, wouldn't you prefer your backup corner infielder have the upside McPhereson has? He is a slam dunk for me. Ask any stat idiot and they will tell you that you can book him for 25+ HR in 450 at bats.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 07:37 PM) Restovich and Raines are just filler. Owens is just insurance in case KW can't find ANYONE else in the entire world, but I can't see them going to him unless he's hitting .350 with a .425+ OBP and 85% conversion rate on stolen base attempts (or an injury to Wise/Anderson). I hate Owens, I puke at even the idea of him starting 100+ games in CF, and I really am not trying to play devil's advocate when I say: Owens HAD to be the plan right? Or at least an Owens/Anderson platoon? If so, what the hell did he do any differently this spring training than he has in the past? In fact I thought he looked better in CF than ever... Is this the first time Kenny actually watched him play?? If Owens was the plan, what happened in his 61 at-bats to warrant cutting him in favor of a player with zero upside who somehow is even a worse defender???
