January 5, 200521 yr Look at Timo's 3-year splits in different batting slots. I'm trying to figure out the inconsistencies. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/spli...68&type=batting Good numbers from 1,6,7. Bad from the rest.

I'm trying to figure out the inconsistencies. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/players/spli...68&type=batting Well, Vin Scully,as long as you bat him against righthanders, on grass, at night, we are in good shape.
January 5, 200521 yr Jim has a hard time keeping up with allstars. he likes the fringe players much better. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What's the matter with you, just seeing if you were paying attention. Try to figure out the new board before diving right into the wisecracks.
January 5, 200521 yr Vin Scully <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "Liiiine driiiive to left center field, that'll go alllll the way to the wall ... Heeere comes Russell, Heeeere comes Lopes, Heeeere comes Garvey ... It's a double for Cey, and the Dodgers take the lead."

Heeere comes Russell, Heeeere comes Lopes, Heeeere comes Garvey ... It's a double for Cey, and the Dodgers take the lead." Bill Buckner is 19 out of 53 against righthanders in the daytime, when the sun is shining. The pitch, hit deep into center field, nobody is gonna get that one, fergeson will come lumbering home ahead of Von Joshua and now Messersmith will take a 3 to nothing lead into the 6th inning. That's Buckners 9 double hit at Chevez ravine on saturdays.
January 5, 200521 yr 19 out of 53 against righthanders in the daytime, when the sun is shining. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Another guy who drove me crazy with all the stats talk was Joe McConnell. One time I remember Hawk got really pissed at McConnell because he'd made a non flattering remark to Gus Wynn. Harrelson had tons of respect for Gus Wynn, they played in the bigs together for a brief time as I recall. I do know Wynn got his 300th at Municipal Stadium in KC (now a vacant lot by the way). McConnell was pretty good announcing the Bears but he was Mr. Stat Mongerer when doing baseball.

The only one who could control him was Drysdale. maybe Dysdale threw at his head one time in spring training.
January 5, 200521 yr have you noticed a trend about hawk. he gets pissed at alot of people, alot of times. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah ... you're right. He reminds me of someone ... I can't quite put my finger on who though ...
January 5, 200521 yr Dysdale <{POST_SNAPBACK}> "Here's the pitch to Landrum ... Ohhhh Nooo, upper deck, this ball is gone! Tito Landrum ... "

January 5, 200521 yr Guess what finger I am looking at now. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Did not know you could look into your butt and type at the same time, what a talent, unbelieveable.
January 5, 200521 yr QUOTE(quickman @ Jan 4, 2005 -> 07:21 PM) jim, it is obviously paying off to wait. prices for these types of players will come down. Smart. Only thing is what to do with Harris. Doubt he goes down. Trading him is an option but who would want him other than kenny williams. Looking at the rest of the free agents... What will Maggs price be, tq and jim?
January 5, 200521 yr Looking at the rest of the free agents... What will Maggs price be, tq and jim? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> One year deal with a player option - Cubs or Orioles or Mets if the Mets can't get their first choices.

True, true, One year lots of incentives and I don't care about maggs. he is not on my team, he turned down 60 million and hired the most arrogant piece of s*** agent around .he is dead to me.

Jim, are you going too?
January 5, 200521 yr I don't care about maggs. he is not on my team <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Agree. The bobblehead gets pulled from my shelf the minute he signs with another team. The wife does not understand this concept, I've been explaining it for like, oh, 22 years now.
