  1. I disagree with you. The kid was 22 playing in the Majors. He has a strong minor league track record where he was playing against men closer to his age bracket. I'm not saying that he's gonna be a breakout star, but I think he has at least a possibility to be decent.
  2. Tyler Pastornicky DFA. Wouldn't mind bring him back, he'd be good depth.
  3. John McDonald retires. While he was never a super star he seemed like a good guy. Wish him well.
  4. Derek Bell, Jose Cruz Jr., Glenallen Hill, Raul Mondesi, Cory Snyder (although he didn't play for the Jays very long), and Mark Whiten are just some of the few that are were pretty decent. I don't know if any of them would crack your top 10 though.
  5. Chris Parmelee is a free agent. He seems to hit lefties well and can play first base and right field. Wonder if he'd take a minor league deal seeing as Smoak is penciled in as our first baseman.
  6. I love Californication. It's so damn good. I think it's a little funny that whenever there is a sex scene it shows David Duchovny doing absolutely no work. I think the only scene he did was when he was drunk and knocked a painting off the wall.
  7. In my opinion Archer is the funniest show on TV right now. I can watch episodes 3 or 4 times and still laugh out loud each time.
  8. I wonder how the Padres farm stacks up now. Seems to me that after the Upton trade it will be pretty bare.
  9. It's just a group of Jocks trying to explain or making fun of something they don't understand.
  10. Managers and executives don't typically get great players when compensation is needed. Farrell got Aviles, Theo got a relief pitcher. If Angelos does let him leave I can't imagine the O's get back more than maybe a 2nd or 3rd tier prospect. By the way, how much would it suck to be stuck in a job where you can't even take a promotion if it comes available?
  11. Bobby Hurley's a douche?
  12. I think AA has done fairly well overall. He has shown that he is a good drafter, and I believe he does fairly well in trades. His biggest flaw, in my opinion, is that he doesn't manage the 25 man roster well and because of that relies too heavily on the waiver wire. Perhaps his hits on Bats (I know he came to us as a trade), and EE has him more willing to try to find lightening in a bottle.
  13. I want every one of them to get parrots for their arms!
  14. I think he will attempt it. I believe I read in the Inquirer that he doesn't believe next year will be a competing year. It may not be a "full" rebuild or a correct one, it will be the most rebuilding they've done in forever.
  15. I could see a team who isn't very good or going through a rebuild (Astros, Phillies, etc) taking him and keeping him.
  16. And, I'm not a tax expert, but US citizens still have to pay the federal income tax for US as well even if their primary residency is in Canada so it's essentially double taxation. It's a big reason why many US citizens abroad are renouncing their citizenship.
  17. It's nice to see us getting a guy that can take a walk and get on base.
  18. Ichiro is a free agent. I know he's old but he still seems to get on base at a decent clip. I don't know how much he'd cost but i don't think he'd be a bad player to have as a semi regular.
  19. I don't think he was that bad when he finally became a pitcher, was he?
  20. We probably wouldn't be able to resign Melky then.
  21. I saw Nessy play in Vancouver a couple years ago and from the seats and he didn't do anything useful. I understand that sometimes it's out of his control but I think he had 3 or 4 passed balls and 1 or 2 throwing errors in the game I saw. I know it's just one game but in this instance I think AAA pitching depth>maybe a depth catcher
  22. And you can't even say that that infield is great defensively. Only Goins is above average and the rest are at or below average. Edit: Two are above average when Lawrie isn't injured.
  23. It sucks when someone who is younger than me goes. It just shouldn't happen.
