  1. Shawn Camp's change-up was pretty effective. King's in grade nine or something lol
  2. I thought that was going to be a double off the wall lol. This has been a strange game to watch.
  3. I think it may be Aaron Hill's .196 in 2010. Or at least that may be the worst in recent seasons.
  4. They use way too many SSS stats and are Wilneresque homers. Probably just as bad, yes.
  5. AAAAAAAAAAAAAADAMMMMMM JOOOOOOOOONES WAY WAY WAY BACK THERREEEEE ABSOLUTELY CRUSHED OOOOOHH MYY HE GOT ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL OF THAT ONE ... ... Hmm... wind seemed to take it back, Melky Cabrera is uh there for the catch. One out.
  6. Orioles broadcaster just pulled a Buck Martinez x 100. Guy was actually screaming.
  7. WTF is going on?! lol This is like us last April. The Orioles should have like seven outs here
  8. Nope, I'd stick with EE because he's the better hitter. Although I'd like Bautista hitting second... Melky, JB, EE, Lind.
  9. Yeah, some way to skip commercial breaks when watching on archive other than doing it manually would be great. MLB.TV is the best. If you have a decent internet connection you should definitely get it.
  10. Yeah they weren't really in the movie either lol. Two borderline MVP candidates. It's like if the Blue Jays made the playoffs this year and and a movie was made about the season, but Bautista, EE, Reyes and Dickey weren't included. Instead, the movie centres around AA's craftiness in building his bullpen, which ultimately carries the team. AA and his scouts are ninja-geniuses for identifying relievers under-appreciated by their teams and acquiring them. And Eric Kratz is the offensive sparkplug that turned around the franchise's fortunes.
  11. Yep, they added a lot of narrative to tell the story of a book about escaping baseball's narratives. The Art Howe hating Billy Beane angle was completely made up too and the real Art Howe was 'livid' over how he was portrayed (http://blog.chron.com/ultimateastros/2011/09/28/art-howe-livid-over-his-portrayal-in-moneyball/). Hudson, Mulder, Zito, who? Hatty and David Justice put the team on their backs and carried the A's to the playoffs! Zito and Hudson racked up 14.1 bWAR yet didn't even get into a movie about their team lol
  12. How is this ironic? JFaS didn't say "Moneyball's script had too many grammatical errors."
  13. They should do it with Cecil and Redmond too, playing the platoon advantage. The only problem is you lose the DH by moving the pitcher to another position (which is a flaw of the DH rule). So both Dickey and McGowan would have had to hit.
  14. Have them both pitch, making one play first base when the other is on the mound. Alternate pitches to maximize the effect.
  15. I think Gsnarls looked last night and didn't find anything. I'm not sure if he pursued the 'bluejaysfan claims to live in Vancouver' lead though.
  16. No, if it's a put-on it's not by King or I. King and I are peripheral contributors at this point. It may be a put-on by friends or family of Kalfus himself. That would explain their rabid dedication and the unique IPs.
  17. I can understand not wanting the Kalfus thread on the main forum since it would always be at the top despite most people not caring, but what's with everyone's hatred for the Whoppers? They're just a group of polite, non-confrontational posters who are passionate about their Saviour. They never disparage or disrespect any other posters in any way. They come in peace. Stop the genocide.
  18. Here: http://www.bluejaysmessageboard.com/threads/1383-The-Great-Umpiring-Conspiracy I found it by looking at JFaS' list of most recently-started threads. Good luck with the paper!
  19. Four dingers in two games for Jose Abreu. He looks legit.
  20. King and I are just as mystified as you guys. The thread left our custody a few months ago. We still post in it a couple times a week, but it's their thread now.
  21. If you're going to 'nuke' the K-thread, do it by closing it, not by deleting it.
