I was also tempted to ask that

But I figured it was Rutgers thing and my puny USF mind wouldn’t understand it.

LATE REPLY

I just did a google image search for baseball bat and picked that one.

Angels got a good deal.

do you all agree?

9 = 8

understatement if they resign him

I'd say it's fair

Cotchman is decent offensively and is under team control until 2012. The pitcher they gave up is decent at best, and they’re going to get 2 picks if they don’t resign Teix which makes it a pretty good deal if they let him go. The Angels have the ability to sign him though, so to me it looks like they gave all of that up to get early negotating rights, and in that instance, it’s an average deal.

by kericr on Jul 29, 2008 6:50 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Kotchman is CC without Outfield and SB.

Fuck
Maddon said Baldelli wouldn’t need to move up first to Triple-A Durham. “He would come here whenever that moment is” and get readjusted to major-league pitching, Maddon said.

You know what the worst part of this statement is?

I remember a certain someone declaring openly and outright that Baldelli would be up in the Bigs before Price, and how everyone and their mother told him that he was wrong, and an idiot.

And now he’s also going to be something else: right.

by kericr on Jul 29, 2008 7:11 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

It wasn't an outrageous statement.

I cannot believe we’re going to risk Baldelli’s sub-10 minor league LD% at the major league level. That’s amazing…

by R.J. Anderson on Jul 29, 2008 7:13 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

At the time the statement was made

Baldelli was in the middle of his first rehab assignment, and was not doing well at all when the statement was made.

by kericr on Jul 29, 2008 7:15 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Which is why it wasn't an outrageous statement to say Price would be up before Rocco.

Perhaps the better question is who will contribute first: Rocco or Price?

by R.J. Anderson on Jul 29, 2008 7:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Oh

No, I thought you were saying that it wasn’t an outrageous statement for Sternfan to say that Rocco would be up before Price.

No, I agree with you. I was with the masses. If Rocco gets promoted before Price, it is solely a PR/inspiration move.

by kericr on Jul 29, 2008 7:17 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

ok

RISP…now a hit

by K-Rock on Jul 29, 2008 7:12 PM EDT   0 recs

Allright!

A runner in scoring position that the Rays can strand! And it’s only the 1st inning!

by kericr on Jul 29, 2008 7:12 PM EDT   0 recs

Fucking stupid 2 out hits

STOP WAITING UNTIL THERE ARE TWO OUTS TO PUT A MAN ON BASE.

BUNTING = WINS

"I'm like a retarded Adam Dunn mixed with Jason Bartlett" - R.J. Anderson

by SaberToothedPie on Jul 29, 2008 7:23 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Well, bunting for basehits

If done properly, certainly can. It’s the sacrifice bunt that im not keen on

by GomesSweetGomes on Jul 29, 2008 7:25 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I agree with this statement.

Carl Crawford should be able to bunt for a hit. I agree with the statistical analysis people that sac bunting is detrimental, however there is use for it in late innings, i believe.

why cant the rays step up their trade game…i dont care what anybody says….baldelli is not going to cut it!

by RAYS44 on Jul 29, 2008 7:25 PM EDT   0 recs

Maybe they emphasized two out hitting so much

They forgot to hit with 0 and 1 outs.

by PewterPirate55 on Jul 29, 2008 7:25 PM EDT   0 recs

but the rays wont bite the bullet… make a trade already!

by RAYS44 on Jul 29, 2008 7:26 PM EDT   0 recs

They had scouts at a Rangers/M's game

I’m sure they have a few offers out.

by R.J. Anderson on Jul 29, 2008 7:27 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I don't know what hurts more

The fact we havent done anything or seeing so many deals go down that I feel we could’ve beaten without sacrificing the future.

It will be interesting to here the behind the scenes antecdotes after the deadline

by GomesSweetGomes on Jul 29, 2008 7:28 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

kinda like Mitch Talbot and Fernando Perez for Nady and Marte

just saying, prolly could have happened and I for one wouldn’t have felt like we gave up too much

by Dbullsfan on Jul 29, 2008 7:29 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yanks offer beat that
