Big series right here.

As for a site note. When I joined DRB, the site averaged 6k visits a month. We just broke the 100k barrier for the month of June and we average about 3-3.5k a day. It's been a long time coming, and I want to thank everyone who helped to spread the word about this little place.

It took DRB nearly four years to reach one million unique visits

We are seriously headed towards one million unique visits in 2009 alone. Thanks to everyone in the community for spreading the word and thanks to the staff for putting out the best stuff around.

When SkyDome first opened, a couple engaging in sexual intercourse was televised on the scoreboard Jumbotron during a baseball game.

Well, this looks busy.

I think it’s going to be time for a soul-crushing, rally-destroying Pt. 2 pretty soon.

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

Sonny wasn't bad

Sonny certainly deserves to be in the majors. You can make a very strong argument he is the most qualified minor leaguer right now.

If Sonny went down to figure things out, he needs to figure them out

so if it was in the near future, Davis first

Don't jump the gun on that

Neimann has some improving to do before other teams should really value him. Of course if another team thinks they can make him slightly better than he can be a very strong asset.

Off topic....

but what do you think of EJax as the Tigers All Star?

Boom. Outta Here.

by WillisDaddy on Jun 29, 2009 8:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I really meant...

can you see Maddon selecting him as their All Star? I’m thinking it’s him or Verlander.

Boom. Outta Here.

by WillisDaddy on Jun 29, 2009 8:47 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think:

Greinke (only Royal)
Halladay
Verlander
Hernandez (only Mariner)
Beckett
Braden (only A)

Those should be locks IMO

Weaver should make it if Hunter makes it
Lee shouldn’t make it since Vmart should be AS catcher

However past the locks I’d order it

Jackson
Lee
Shields
Weaver

I do think there is no way Sabathia should make it. Too many other pitchers with equal or better stats

by matthan on Jun 29, 2009 9:00 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Doubt...

Braden will make it with more losses than wins. Same with Lee. Maybe a Buehrle and Garza in contention with 10 wins by the break.

Boom. Outta Here.

by WillisDaddy on Jun 29, 2009 9:04 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Maddon is a pretty unique guy

I wouldn’t be shocked if he puts in the best players (in terms of first half 09) rather than the guys with the best public stats. Braden has been the best A by a considerable margin IMO

by matthan on Jun 29, 2009 9:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Think it's more likely...

that it’s a Matt Holliday selection or a reliever (Wuertz). As unconventional as Maddon is, I don’t think anyone wants to spend the whole weekend hearing how stupid they are from the MSM for bring a starting pitcher with a losing record, and you know they would,

Boom. Outta Here.

by WillisDaddy on Jun 29, 2009 9:12 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Both should easily make it

No question about that. They’ve been tremendous. It is very hard to argue against both of them not being in the top 6 starters in the league.

Are you actually trying to troll or is this true ignorance?

I can't wait until we trade him for a reliever.

by kericr on Jun 29, 2009 8:36 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Because its just not true

Unless you measure talent by some biased qualitative measure. Sonny has been a very good major leaguer. Shouldn’t his numbers speak for themselves?

by matthan on Jun 29, 2009 8:38 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

It depends

If you look at the work myself and Sandy Kazmir recently completed you can make an argument they’ve been about the same.

by matthan on Jun 29, 2009 8:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Exactly

Performance is by far and really the only thing that matters at this level. If performance doesn’t equal potential then something is broke along the coaching lines or with the pitcher himself.

What does he need to figure out?

Hes had a few really bad starts. But what does he really have to figure out? Sonny is always going to be a guy that is going to have really bad games once in awhile when he doesn’t have his command.
