fathom Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Did someone give Aramis some soon-to-be-FA PEDS? He went from not being able to hit the ball to the warning track the first month and a half to the point now where he's hitting 450 foot homers to dead center.

If he has two hits in the September game, will they technically be 2,999 and 3,000? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OilCan Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Freddie Freeman, 1b for the Braves. He's good. RBI Single off of Doc Holliday, fastball up and away. Freeman extends his arms and ropes it into CF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â No that would only be if they had a suspended game. The remainder of the suspended game goes to the stats from the original date. Â Like the Sox had an April game suspended vs the Orioles a few years ago. Ken Griffey Jr. played in the rest of the game in August, and it technically went to his April splits.

If that trade happens, it will likely be the first of several, as we'll have quite the SP surplus at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) Jeter hits his 3,000th hit, and it was a HR -- pretty neat. He is kind of an overrated player, but he is a good person off-the-field and always seemed to come through in the clutch.

Paulstar Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 QUOTE (kageman129 @ Jul 8, 2011 -> 08:04 AM) No one mentioned this on here yet? Angels promote Mike Trout from Double-AÂ http://sports.espn.go.com/los-angeles/mlb/...tory?id=6748299 Â I can't wait to see Trout play this weekend. Excellent skills and only 19 years old. I still have no idea how he dropped to 25. I can't recall, but did he have some sign ability concerns? Unfortunately, I was not surprised that we passed on him in 09. We don't have a very good track record of drafting good baseball players, at least with position players, in the first round in a long time (key examples recently being good athletes who were terrible baseball IQ players like Fields and Anderson; jury still out on Mitchell, but I'm not very confident). Â The Gordon Beckham one hurts, cause he's the most talented 1st rounder we've had in a while, but he's just shown a complete lack of baseball knowledge at the plate. He thinks he is a home run hitter when he should be going gap to gap, trying to spray line drives. I really wouldn't care if he hit only 5 homers a year, I was really hoping he'd be a double's machine. At least his defense has become superb at 2B.

After Ortiz glared in at Gregg after the first inside pitch, can you blame any pitcher with an ego throwing at Ortiz in that situation? Clearly the first pitch had no intention except for trying to get an inside strike. Â I just want to know if Ortiz is using again, because his career just all of a sudden took off again, and that gets kind of fishy considering he is in his mid-late 30's.

That A's rotation is kind of something with their injuries. Â The Blue Jays from a few years back also had guys who got injured left and right. A.J. Burnett, B.J. Ryan, Dustin McGowan, Shaun Marcum, etc. Nearly all their bullpen guys were side-armers or dropped down really low 3/4 and a lot of them got hurt a lot.
