  1. I mean I get your point to some extent, but can't people with lots of money decide they'd like to do something different? Professional athletes are away from their families a lot and at some point...the extra millions may not matter Note - no idea of Rasmus has a family. He's really ugly
  2. Rickey was #1, Raines #2. Ty Cobb was #24
  3. Is Max catching much in these days? Any updates? Nice to see Jansen continues to hit in AA
  4. He might break the record for the worst single season BsR in ML history by then (unless Pujols is still playing). I went to try and find out who holds that distinction, but got side tracked by the best base runners of all time. Names that stood out include: 3. Ichiro (no surprise) 5. Juan Pierre 6. Carl Crawford 7. Billy Hamilton (no not that one, his great, great, great Grandpa, the 5'6 OFer from the late 1800's who could actually hit (career wRC+ of 142) 8. Jimmy Rollins 13. Johnny Damon (1 ahead of Lou Brock 15. Jose Reyes 16. Chase Utley 17. Kenny Loften 19. Carlos Beltran (no surprise) 22. Coco Crisp 23. Rajai Davis (one ahead of Ty Cobb) 31. Brett Gardner 35. Curtis Granderson 39. Jacoby Ellsubry 40. Ian Kinsler 48. Billy Hamilton (yes that one in 3.5 seasons) 50. Mike Trout Seems like a lot of "recent" players. Are players just smarter base runners these days? BTW - Tony Womack is 29th on the list. He finished his career with 1.6 WAR. Yikes.

  6. Anyone know why Nick Castellanos sucks despite his amazing hard contact%?
  7. That seems like a great haul. What a farm system they have now man. In 2-3 years - look out.
  8. Man - this hits home for me. I developed a stuttering problem in like Grade 5 or 6. I don't remember exactly when I managed to overcome it, but it was probably Grade 10 or something. It was an AWFUL time in my life. It's actually just recently came back to a small extent (on words that start with a particular letter - it's really odd). It was incredible hard for me as a teenager.
  9. Which is probably exactly what he is.
  10. What did Miggy do?
  11. Rajai Davis's speed never disappeared either. However, there are always expections to the rules. In general - don't pay for leg only guys in their 30's.
  12. Always assumed in my mind you were a 45 yr old man. Now I doubt you are.
  13. Apparently the Cubs offer Schwarber for either Fulmer or Daniel Norris (although apparently they are much more interested in Fulmer, obviously).
  14. meh - I think there will always be a place for counting stat milestones. One could argue against the merits of 3,000 hits, 500 HRs, etc. But as a fan, they are still cool and will remain iconic numbers.
  15. I really doubt it was ever a factor in whether or not Johnson made the HOF; however, regardless of how important pitching wins really are, it will always remain an iconic baseball number and one worth chasing if you're close as there's a chance he'll be the last pitcher ever to reach the milestone.
  16. I don't blame him one bit. 300 wins is an iconic number.
  17. I thought you were MIA all summer. Perhaps I didn't notice your return (phone broke a week ago and I've been a mess since). WB.
  18. Actually - that would be a sweet upgrade. I love the 200 level seats behind home plate.
  19. Anyone know if Daniel Norris still lives in a van during spring training?
  20. Phil in the IT department does. Phil knows his s***.
  21. ah that's awful. I never heard that. I missed him last night.
  22. I'll certainly be looking to open my wallet to see the new paint job!
