A baseball road trip would be surreal. I've actually never been to an MLB game. :(

 

Aw, I often forget how lucky I am to live so close to my favourite team until I see posts like this.

Yeah, especially a big a fan as P2F... feels bad man. As soon as my passport renewal showed up, I was f***ed.

Ever?

 

Never.

 

I was supposed to go in 1994. Back when I was living in Ontario, my mom got us some tickets to watch the White Sox that August and I was super stoked to go. Then the f***ing lockout happened, so that idea was nixed.

 

Two years ago, a couple of my friends and I planned a road trip to Seattle to watch the series against the Jays. That fell through pretty last minute. We're planning one for next year as well, but I'm not exactly holding my breath.

 

I'm pretty certain that if I ever make it to a game, the universe is going to be obliterated by a supermassive black hole.

If you ever come to the T-Dot, let me know, I'll come and enjoy a game with you!

Damn.

 

I'd love to hear that story.

 

A neighbour came after me with a bat, he swung, I ducked and took it off him and hit a HR in his ribs, f***ed off, saw the pigs at his house, showed up, booked. "we called him no-reverse" his s*** box had no reverse, he snapped, lol.

Still think they should give Jordan Romero a shot over the Biagini experiment... It was his day to pitch yesterday.... I truly feel this team has better players in the minors then on our MLB roster.

 

If it was really about putting the best talent on the field and not options, contracts, and service time, Morales would be DFAd, VG would be up, as would Romano or Shawn Reid-Foley...Grichuk would be an after thought ad Jansen would be up.. I also think LGJ would do ok if given more playing time in the Show.

Romano sucks. Doesn't get groundballs, doesn't get strikeouts, walk rate is way too high. Also, he's 25. Might be interesting out of the bullpen though.

Who do you cut for Jansen? Catcher position is what it is. Russ going nowhere and Luke doing a fine job backing up.

The point of my post was that if you do not take into consideration contracts etc, then we do not have the best team available on the field. If Martin had his numbers, even with his game calling and he was making ML minimum and had options, you bet your ass he would be down in AAA and it would be Maile and Jansen. Same concept as Morales..

 

 

EDIT: Just checked.. Jansen hitting 311, IF you divide that in half (50%) at the ML level he would be batting .155

 

Martin is batting .177... :rolleyes: below 300 OBP and a 670 OPS, basically the lowest of all stats on the team. EXCEPT for.. Our buddy Kendry Morales..:(
