The Apocalypse is Upon Us

“Beyond The Box Scores”

Clever, it’s almost like a baseball website filled with great minds came up with that same thing already. Good job ESPN, you guys rock!!!!!!!!!

According to Bill Madden of The NY Daily News, the Royals have agreed to send the versatile Mark Teahen to the White Sox in exchange for Chris Getz and Josh Fields. Madden says Teahen is expected to replace free agent-to-be Jermaine Dye in rightfield.

The 28-year-old Teahen hit .271/.325/.408 last year, but is a career .261/.325/.514 hitter at U.S. Cellular Field. FanGraphs has him at -2.0 UZR/150 in right, which is a massive upgrade over Dye’s -17.5 mark. Teahen earned $3.575MM in 2009, and has two more years of arbitration eligibility ahead of him. He’s certainly been the subject of many trade rumors over the years.

Getz, 26, was Chicago’s every day second basemen for most of 2009, hitting .261/.324/.347 with 25 stolen bases in 27 attempts. Fields, 28, has struggled to find a place with the White Sox, hitting .229/.302/.416 in 746 plate appearances over the last four years while playing first, third, and left field. Both players are in their pre-arbitration years, and have a combined ten years of team control left.

I’m frustrated as all get out trying to access this thing through my vpn and just want to put it on my laptop? Nerds?

Cristiano, a self-described huge Yankees fan, said she hadn’t expect to see either one of then again. But then a 911 call came through about a car accident a short distance away, and so officers suspended the checkpoint and responded to the crash. As she came upon the accident scene, in an area where the parkway’s two lanes turn into three and cars speed by the curve that takes them to the Hutchinson Parkway, Cristiano spotted Girardi.

“He was jumping up and down, trying to flag me down,” she said. “You don’t expect him standing by a car accident trying to help.”

Cristiano said by the time she arrived, the driver, Marie Henry, 27, of Stratford, Conn., was able to get out of the crashed vehicle and declined to be taken to the hospital.

Girardi, who was dressed in a casual T-shirt and jeans, then told them he “had to get going.”

I can’t find anything on sexual harassment against men. I am the only male in my office and have had to listen to male-bashing, slander and other forms of harassment that make me uncomfortable. The boss doesn’t want to hear about it, but in fact tends to take the women’s side. My HR director is also a woman and won’t even give me a chance to discuss. Would you give me insight on how to handle this situation?

consecutive video game commercials.

Is there a place I can go to for all my Buccaneers news? Possibly a website? With content?

“I’m definitely interested in the long term, but I first have to do what I can do. We’ll see what happens. Hopefully, we can go to the playoffs next season.”

[00:10] Me: Help me come up with a witty status update to piss off Yankee fans
[00:10] SRQ: At least Hitler killed a couple million of your kind before they could see this
[00:10] Me: uh…nevermind.

But it wasn’t the orange one. :(

As it turns out, Moore was the instigator in a couple shoving matches with starting center Jeff Faine. Moore was a little too physical in his pass rushing during practice and Faine took exception on two occasions.

"[Faine] came in a little late," Moore said. "I’m not going to talk bad about him. It was uncalled for, though. I think I pushed Jerramy Stevens into the quarterback and he came out of nowhere late – real late. Then I pushed Trueblood into the quarterback – both times it was with [Josh] Freeman at quarterback. I did the same thing to Trueblood and [Faine] came real late again. But it’s practice and that’s what Faine does.

"I’m going to keep going hard. That’s what we did at USC. We practiced hard. If they don’t want to go hard, I’m going to go hard anyways. There’s nothing that’s going to change for me."

After two incidents where Freeman was shoved last Thursday, Moore was told by Morris to back off his overly aggressive play.

"He told me to lay off him," Moore said. "He said that once I beat him he wants me to back up off him. But their momentum was going back so far that I couldn’t stop them anyways. He told me to back up off them."

If Moore is driving the likes of Trueblood and Stevens back into the quarterback, and the Bucs have an obvious need for pass rushers, shouldn’t the rookie get a look on Sunday?

Basically, it weights 2007/2008/2009 at 2/3/5, respectively to come up with a weighted average. If a guy only played the last 2 years then it was at 3/5 and if only in 2009, then that was the wtd. avg:

Name Wtd. Avg.
Evan Longoria 6.49
Ben Zobrist 4.45
Carl Crawford 4.18
Carlos Pena 3.68

B.J. Upton 3.52
Akinori Iwamura 1.91
