  1. At the time submitting this message you have 6,726 posts. Your Right counter is at 25. That means you've been wrong 6701 times. If posts were OBP, you'd be at .003. So no, you don't matter. Get back to the little leagues and learn how to wok.
  2. Heyward in the OF next year would be a mighty fine addition. I've been suggesting it for a few weeks now (not to anyone who matters, though).
  3. Pillar's an idiot in this situation for most people because a superstud was the victim. If it was Goins people would be a lot more critical about who shouldn't have been running backwards into the CF's territory. Tulo needed to give way there. It wasn't even a critical play either. As far as I'm concerned the CF's calls have priority over the SS's. There are very, very few situations in which a SS has a better play than a good CF on pop ups like that. Let the CF call it off. If it falls, it's on him, but don't get in the way. On a related note, it must be tough for guys like Pillar and Goins to deal with all the egos on the team. Pillar often has to call off Jose and Goins has to stop JD sometimes. I could have sworn that I recently saw a small disagreement between JD and Goins on a play to the left side. Goins snagged the ball and made the play and JD kind of gestured in a "yo, that was mine" kind of way. Not sure if it was joking or not. Easily could have been, but sometimes I wonder how fringe guys take to "captaining" superstars because of positional priority.
  4. Another strong 2B defense option off the bench for the remainder of the season. What's wrong with having a stockpile of defensive wizards, regardless of how long they'll be here?
  5. I wouldn't say that. Any additional depth is welcome in a playoff race like this one, even if Tulo isn't out for the year. Tulo could very well be done, but even if he isn't there's no sense in not upgrading what's currently on the active roster.
  6. Ironic. Pennington's defense arguably saved the game (not at SS though, admittedly).
  7. I'd prefer we don't encourage a repeat of this first half of this year, thanks.
  8. One of the few guys I've ever really wanted to go all the way for his own sake. That first playoff games v. Reds looked like a sign of things to come, but it sure didn't turn out that way. Kinda sad.
  9. I want roboumps because rules need to be enforced correctly. But also I want to see a particularly irate player start giving it to an oblivious StrikeTron 3000 right on the field (and then maybe a post-game interview about how machines can be wrong too). (This of course depends on if roboumps actually are four Lost in Space-style robots right on the field with the players, just like our human umps now. Hopefully they go full slapstick and give them protective masks over their robo brains that flip up so the offended player can shout into it. Maybe even add an extendo-arm with a big red boxing glove to bop the player on the nose clownishly.)
  10. Agree on Carrera being a huge brain cramp waiting to happen. I hate watching him play.
  11. How is Matheny bad? I haven't caught many Cards games this season for some reason.
  12. Wait, that was Shaw's HR? I missed it earlier. f*** Fenway. It's the knuckleball of stadiums.
  13. Need to survive the ninth. The fearsome foursome coming up in the tenth.
  14. The baseball gods bringing a huge boot down on the Jays today.
  15. Smoak did his job but it didn't work out. It happens. As for Carrera being in... I don't like him either but I'm thinking Pompey pinch runs at the next reasonable opportunity. I can live with this.
  16. The BABIP monster is green and wears a B on his cap: http://www.digitaljournal.com/img/6/5/4/7/8/0/i/1/2/0/o/20060315jc_newwally1141.jpg
  17. Agree that the playoffs is not going to provide many opportunities for blowouts, but please use predictive text.
  18. Was this the 2-0 game or the 2-1 game? Pitching helped win both of those games. So your strat about saving your best guy for a scubbier matchup doesn't hold up.
  19. Have the Jays not won two Tanaka starts this year?
  20. Don't mind Trouba. It's a wonder his nervous, sweaty palms don't just slide right off his keyboard.
  21. It's coming across annoying because it is annoying. Thread in, thread out, it's just misery from you even though the team is in first place.
