DBAHO

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 27, 2005 -> 04:33 PM) Dbaho why did you waste your time? I have too much time on my hands. I just wanna see if he answers any of those.

Happy Birthday Jim!!! Make sure you have a few cold ones on me.

1) How many games has Juan Uribe played at 3rd? 2) How could we afford Cabrera if Uribe was going to replace Joe Crede, and you still want us to get Gooch? 3) Russ Ortiz is signed for 1 more year and will make an extra $12 million. 4) Who can we get from Atlanta to be our next GM? It's not like there's a Paul DePodesta or J.P Riccardi waiting in the wings to take over there. 5) Orlando Cabrera - .229/.296/.347 all for $32 million over 4 years. Since he's turning it around, splits in May; .196/.281/.255 6) The man he replaced; David Eckstein - .299/.368/.390 all for $10.2 million over 3 years. 7) Would you still take Orlando Hernandez with his "DL Stints and all" over Russ Ortiz for a less $25 million over 2 less years? 8) Who said that Jaret Wright was "GREAT" 9) So KW was "forced" to hire Ozzie. You think he may have quit if he wasn't able to do his job to its fullest capabilities? 10) JR is never going to ink a pitcher long - term. Mark Buerhle is locked up until 2007 with an option for 2008 IIRC. Freddy Garcia locked up until 2007. JG will most likely get a long - term deal worked out. Jose Contreras and Orlando Hernandez locked up until 2006. But I guess since we're not handing out Mike Hampton style contracts to the likes of Russ Ortiz, it's just not good enough right? 11) What do you think of Matt Clement now compared to 4-6 months ago? 12) You called for a pitching first team. Well if Russ Ortiz and co. were in our rotation, you think we would have still won 33 games this season? 13) Would you rather win 13 straight divisional titles like Atlanta, or 2 world series like the Florida Marlins? 14) You think KW would still go for the long ball approach even without Ozzie, with what has happened over the past 4 seasons? Watch the Minnesota Twins, that's what he did. 15) When Gio comes up (most likely 2007,2008), yes MB will still be here. He has a 9.5 million option for 2008 IIRC. 16) If you don't like 2nd place finishes, how do you think the fans of the Kansas City Royals feel? The Detroit Tigers? Remind me to bump all of these threads at the end of the season.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 27, 2005 -> 03:43 PM) I can't wait till Cruddy is gone. And replacing him will be............

Finally went and saw it today. Enjoyed it, well why wouldn't you when you've got Natalie Portman on a big screen in some very nice outfits (don't post that bald pic again qwerty) . I would have liked to see some things tie in together a little more, like how does Chewbacca and Han Solo get together, why does Yoda go to the Dagobah system etc., but I still liked it.

QUOTE(Iwritecode @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:42 AM) The last time I rented a car the required age was 23... Well this keeps gettin better and better.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:36 AM) Carlos Beltran.. coming to the FA market.. Thanks for playing. And they ended up with Steve Finley. Yep that sure did work.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:33 AM) Wow before the season the same could have been said about AJ..Great insight to nothing. Except KW did his research on him. Why do you think, Anaheim only got the almighty Juan Rivera and a AAAA shortstop for Guillen if he's so good?

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:32 AM) And How was Hernadez's start this past Sunday? Ask that in August, September and hopefully October.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:30 AM) See, this is wher you differ.. I say that owners.. would have to pull out their money to sign AJ.. DYE would have been Gullien(a younger better version of DYE) and Gooch.. see AJ.. Put Hernandez in there and he be exactly where he is now.. ON THE FA-KING DL.. Guillen = Clubhouse Cancer We wouldn't have AJ in your scenario. Say hello to Ben Davis. Harris would still be starting.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:25 AM) Catfish isn't the tastiest of all fishes..... Salmon all the way.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:26 AM) Live a little, get someone to rent it for you, drive all you wnat. If you get pulled over, play foreigner, I didn't know the law, blah , blah. Besides, you'll be long gone before any court dates. Didn't you watch that Simpsons episode?

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:23 AM) Yansy, this is a first from you I thought you were above this peons Calling me egotistical is just upsired. (sp) Can I help it if I am right 99.99999% of the time? So Russ Ortiz counts for .00000000000001%? Clement .00000000000001%? Leiter .00000000000000001%? Cabrera 2,498,678%?

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:23 AM) Great you managed to capture everything, Why waste the money on him when we could have gone after Lowe...That was the whole point of that post.. OF course you fail to mange to tell the whole story. I could have quoted at least 15 more, but meh couldn't be bothered. The point is, would you still have signed Lowe on a 4 year $36 million deal, instead of El Duque, which means we wouldn't have Dye or AJ and Iguchi? Yes Lowe has been good for Los Angeles, but that's because he's pitching in the NL in a PITCHER's PARK. Put Hernandez in LA (and they were very interested in him) and their numbers would be pretty much identical.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:19 AM) ...not only that; I'm pretty sure you need to be at least 21 years of age to drive a rental. That's what I've heard briefly, but I'll have to check it out in more detail.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:12 AM) I would have taken neither...Wright had one good year in Atlanta, and Herandez, is to injury prone..I still say we should have went after either Clement or Lowe.. Groundball pitchers something needed at the Cell. How ironic;

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:06 AM) The Melbourne Bushwhackers. ...sounds damn good to me. Spread the word!!! The last 2 baseball teams we had down here in Melbourne were called the Waverly Reds and the Melbourne Monarchs.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:06 AM) OO yeah Now I remember, thanks for pointing out How much of fools you all are.. You guys wanted Jaret Wright.. Thank for proving that most of you guys have no idea how to run a front office, unless its on your PS2 or Xbox's... Thanks for playing, lets see who ANthrax can make look like the bigger fool This weeks winner... RockRaines Tell Him what he has won Rock's prize, maybe next week he won't be a winner after reading it. That's it I want to thank everyone for playing and trying so hard, but this week is at and end. At the time would you have taken Jaret Wright over Orlando Hernandez?

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:06 AM) Number 1 could be dangerous in the event of a fire or something. The students who got caught doing that weren't allowed to go to graduation or do their final exams at school.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:05 AM) How old r u? 19 turning 20 in September.

This will be what his 3rd or 4th year in the majors? Detroit won't be able to control his arbitration rights for many more years.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:02 AM) Look at this way, people retire in Arizona. The up side is you're not that far from Mexico, California or Vegas. I don't even know if I would be able to drive over there considering I'm still on my Probationary License down here (when you get your license, you have your P's for 3 years, then you get your full driver's license).

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ May 27, 2005 -> 01:01 AM) Settle down Outback Jack, I'm sure you're very civilized. ...how else would you know how to prepare a wallaby? I have actually eaten kangaroo before cooked on the campfire. Tastes a lot like ummmm half lamb half chicken if I could put my finger on it. Just for you Addison, I'll have to send you a copy one day.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ May 27, 2005 -> 12:55 AM) Yeah, it's not like he lives near the king of barren wastelands...the Outback. Excuse me, I only live 20 minutes away from Melbourne. It's not like I'm living in the outback with a big campfire going every - day.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 27, 2005 -> 12:44 AM) I dont know why anyone is so down on Cotts about walking people, Walker is known to walk many many many guys as well. I think they are both crap at this point, but Cotts is a little less crappy. They still should bring up Baj though. Because it's Neal Cotts.
