  1. I have often wondered what it would have been like if both James Hetfield and Dave Mustaine had stayed in Metallica. They might have become the best supergroup since Zeppelin. Or ever. Or, it might have been a colossal disaster with one or two albums produced then gone down in flames. I think more likely the latter but who knows...
  2. Yes he is. Killer musician. Terrible singer. Egomaniac and jealous of Metallica's success. I saw them in Moncton with Slayer 2-3 years ago.
  3. Right. He became a knuckleballer because he sucked.
  4. You think the coaching staff is responsible for the rotten 2/3 of a season Bonifacio had here?
  5. What what what??? Rajai gets on base more (recent 10 game sample size notwhithstanding), is every bit as good of a base stealer, hits lefties REALLY well, and isn't the defensive liability that Boni is in the outfield. Boni's "ability" to play 2B is meaningless cause he sucks at it. We should keep Rajai for another year until we've decided if Gose is the next Otis Nixon or the next Rajai Davis.
  6. And completely unsustainable It's OK We're better off without him
  7. I like your posts a lot. Glad you're contributing again. (zero sarcasm)
  8. Not the least bit surprised hence "of course" Also, it's pretty much a given that Bonifacio will absolutely rob a game from us in the upcoming series against the Royals. It's what happens. I still recall Eric Thames making probably the best defensive play of his life (he hasn't that many...) against us right after we traded him to Seattle.
  9. My thoughts exactly. LOL
  10. Ans if they get better year after year they might be able to sustain to too.
  11. Agree NJH But they should also probably rebuild Brandon Morrow with titanium in every moving body part.
  12. "But the health issues have continued at alarming rate this year – 20 different players have needed 24 DL stints (tied for second in the majors) for a total of 1,102 games lost (third in the big-leagues) – and simply dismissing that as a fluke is no longer an option. One thing the Blue Jays are kicking around is creating a medical director type of position to oversee the way everything from strength and conditioning to daily maintenance is handled, and it’s an idea with some merit."
  13. Puig 2.0???
  14. It depends when that goes on the books I guess. It might not kick until Jan. 1 or something. I don't know. But you're right, it wasn't included in this analysis of the finances.
  15. Seems like a safe bet these days... And especially for these guys against Kuroda.
  16. Lawrie, Reyes and Edwin must be pissed about how hard they're playing and how badly the team is doing.
  17. Yeah this home run contest was half the reason I still watched at least some games. Now I barely care about this even because no once except JP seems capable of hitting home runs any more. Oh, and because the Yankees are hitting like 5 a game off our starters.
  18. If they're smart with it, yes
  19. Yahoo Sports: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/houston-astros-worst-record-baseball-making-most-money-175023013.html "And that $21 million is couch-cushion money compared to some of baseball's most bloated payrolls. Consider this: The Yankees have nine players who make more than the Astros entire roster makes. Alex Rodriguez, baseball's highest-paid player, is supposed to make $28 million this season. The highest paid Astro? That's Eric Bedard, who is making $1.15 million. A big chunk of the Astros' profits come from their TV deal, booming sources of income for pro sports teams these days. The Astros' deal pays them $80 million this season. Combine that with the very low payroll and an attendance that's not the absolute worst in baseball, and you've got a formula to count money."
  20. Have they got a decent deal? Also haven't seen attendance figures but that's probably the smallest part. Edit: Answering my own question. 80M in TV revenue.
  21. Stand to make about 100 million dollars this year, thanks to a 21 million dollar payroll and revenue sharing Will make more money than the last 6 World Series winners combined Crazy http://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2013/08/26/2013-houston-astros-baseballs-worst-team-is-most-profitable-in-history/
  22. If only it wouldn't cost them 15.6 million dollars to cut ties with him this off season What a f'n disaster
