QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 04:52 PM) Since when did the record matter in Spring Training? Some of you guys need to check yourselves. If you guys are this bad already, I can't wait to see how f***ed up PHT is during the season. Who's complaining about the record? I've read perhaps one person specifically mention it.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 04:33 PM) I can't quite recall, someone help me. How many pre-season games did the Colts win this season? You can still assess this team, Spring Training or not. Such as our lefty relievers competiting for a roster position. I don't need a 'large sample size' to conclude they're rather mediocre. No one I've read has openly said "We're THE SUCK." It's simple--no one wants to witness their club losing six straight games with average losses seemingly totaling 7 runs per game. I don't care, personally, because it's not as if any of our regular pitchers are giving up 4 spots. Or hitters possessing more than 20 AB's.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 04:26 PM) Nice baserunning by Valido. Inning over. 6-3 Diamondbacks. Atleast the score is fairly close...... This must be the mindset of Royals' fans explaining losses.

Hold Arizona under 7 runs and this afternoon's game will be successful.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 02:58 PM) Are you watching this game or something? How do you know? Obviously you don't recall the field's monstrous center field wall. If it's 405 ft away from the plate--and the baseball broadly hit the wall--safe to assume it would have easily traveled outside the Cell.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 02:24 PM) We're playing Arizona. Dustin Nippert is pitching. Yeah, I meant Arizona. We alternate between Arizona and Colorado often enough. Now this pitcher, is a good pitching prospect for the Diamondbacks?

Another three pitches retires a Sox hitter. Can someone tell me, is this Colorado pitcher a typical scrub?

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 01:32 PM) I wonder if any other ex-player GM's head to weight room during games...The KW/Beane similarities keep coming. There are probably several more. Too bad their similarities end with the whole 'World Series championship' concept. Or for that matter, the whole 'winning a postseason series' concept.

Sexy YouTube Video. SFW

There may be a Silent Hill comic book I'm aware of, but similar to Resident Evil, this movie inspires itself from a successful video game series. What made Silent Hill enjoyable was the atmosphere. Resident Evil relied more on action. If the movie can mimmick the atmospheric conditions (ie, appropriate use of fog, fitting soundtrack, feeling of isolation) I may pay money to watch it.

You're right. I have a list next to me where I wrote Mackowiak twice. Safe to assume Gload and Borchard are assured roster positions. If Munoz is the lone lefty chosen, he'll have to continue pitching well. We've seen these last few games the lefty pool isn't very deep with talent.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Mar 4, 2006 -> 04:41 PM) I really think that Ozzie wants a second lefty so that means Borchard, Gload, and a lefty. I'm certain there only two roster spots available.

Hawk is right, though. Baj needs another pitch. His breaking ball isn't too bad; it's his straight fastball which gets him. You can't get by on two pitches unless both are superb.

There's the Baj we all know. Giving up LONG homeruns.

How about we make it a nice 14 runs with a grand slam right here?

Another lefty wets himself. This is becoming a trend. Oh right, that's because they're all terrible.

Can you blame them? It's a simple decision, since nearly everyone of the candidates are pure crap. Lopez may be the lone pitcher with consideration.

Can we just save face and kick Tucker out on his ass? These are minor leaguers he's facing. By now everyone realizes he's terrible. Nearly all the other lefthanders can come along with him.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 4, 2006 -> 03:05 PM) im not really ok with it I agree. Don't enjoy watching these ass whoopings. Don't enjoy seemingly every pitcher, roster spot assured of not, give up runs. BTW, nice job for Tucker to give up a single to a lefthander. He's useless.

Yeah, I believe it's safe to assume with the lefty barrage coming out the next several innings, Arizona's offense will get extra batting practice.

McCarthy is definitely composed in the booth. Well spoken and informative. I can picture him as a radio broadcaster for us one day.

Not an encouraging pitching performance from McCarthy. His breaking ball was flat, location bad, and changeup rarely used.

BW, chat's open. McCarthy has almost exclusively been throwing fastballs this first inning. Several changeups thrown to Tracy looked fairly good. His velociy hasn't noticeably changed. Still around 90.

I'm guessing the video didn't broadcast the defendents face, and the only remnants of him were background sounds--which would have to be corroborated by the victim. Since she refused to watch the video, no validation was given. Reasonable doubt was created. Everyone probably knew he was guilty. It just wasn't possible to convict him on the evidence provided.

Practically an open and shut case. First, an overt step towards the commision of a crime is established. Second, Muhammed's fulfilment of attempted murder charges is substantiated with the actual hit and run, in addition to his comments following arrest. Muslims in this nation are under a microscope as it is. When even one solitary person commits an act of violence, it's going to be national news.
