  1. I like Shark. I really don't give a s*** if Sanchez is traded, I'm not a big fan of pitchers who walk more batters a game than JPA will walk in a month.
  2. You and your GF must be excited.
  3. Perhaps, but I'm not so sure about that, but really no one knows. They keep such a tight lid on things. Even recent comments by AA suggest that payroll isn't an issue if you read between the lines. I don't know what to make of it really, so I'm sticking by my original stance to wait until the dust settles as I really think AA has an opportunity to redeem himself.
  4. Something surely isn't adding up. No one can be that stupid though, especially considering he has stated in the past that money is available should he need it. Either he believes he can obtain superior players via trade or the FA's he has inquired on have basically told him to f*** off. In either case, if his objective is to get this team the final 3-5 wins it needs, Infante alone adds 2 wins and he still has trade chips to address the rotation. It's frustrating to think he could end up making some deals that address needs yet may not actually translate to an overall improvement.
  5. Or you could just impose the break on him
  6. I just find it idiotic that he isn't in on any FA. I firmly believe that many won't want to sign here and that he likely has to overpay, however, that can't be the case for every FA. A guy like Ellis for instance might strongly consider a team like ours knowing we have zero prospects behind him that will be pushing him out. That isn't the case if he signs with some other teams considering his age and likely decline into irrelevance in the next year or two. Or just throw some big $$ at Infante. I know many don't like that option but 4/36 for infante has minimal consequence to a team nearing $150M in payroll and isn't the same in terms of the risk associated with higher end FA's. Sign Infante and trade for a 3 WAR SP and we likely improve overall by 3-4 wins depending on how much value your truly believe our #5 options and an Izzy/Goins platoon will provide. That inches us closer to a 90 win team.
  7. Stereotypes make life so much more enjoyable.
  8. I would be fine with Ellis at this point. I don't know if we're going to be in on Tanaka or not, there is no telling what money is available, especially considering no noteworthy FA's have been liked to this team all winter other than some BS speculation from the media.
  9. Playing in Korea.
  10. He is referring to Cooler Heads Prevail who was banned recently.
  11. Considering Phillips acquisition cost and contract renegotiation demands, Infante seems like the more attractive option. f*** AA do something. Once Infante comes off the market, the cost of Phillips will be that much greater. Just sign Infante and be over with it.
  12. He was an angry man. Almost every one of his posts was involved in an argument, threat, stupidity, etc.
  13. I wonder if he had a stroke or something. That much rage can't be healthy.
  14. Lol, that guy challenged so many people to fights. Didn't someone end up figuring out his identity and calling his house? Lol.
  15. In fairness Dickey was considered a superior SP at the time of the trade than what Shark is now. Plus Dickey came with a very team friendly deal, something I don't expect Shark to sign.
  16. I've been posting for well over a decade now, although I was more of a lurker and an infrequent poster in the beginning.
  17. AA has pretty much stated he won't deal both, and I doubt he does.
  18. I actually find it kind of hard to go out and spend less than $100, but that's for my wife and myself.
  19. Oh I still have my nights where I will spend upwards of 300-400 and even more depending on where I am at. I just make it a point to put aside my savings first and then I get to enjoy what's left.
  20. Gotta get on those GGILF's.
  21. Personal choice I guess. I've always been of the mindset to put a little away each month.
  22. Do you really need to ask that question?
  23. Reds apparently very interested in Infante. Would need to move Phillips first, but this could mean something is brewing. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2013/12/reds-interested-in-omar-infante.html
