Sounds like typical post-injury Kazmir.

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

Crawford close to signing long term deal!
Crawford’s agents and the Rays have been exchanging proposals for deals of four to seven years and from what Crawford said Saturday the prospects for an agreement look good.

He was a great baseball player

That says nothing about his intelligence or even his knowledge of the game.

Doesn't mean he deserves to be labeled an idiot.

My guess is that he knows quite a bit about baseball, just not in the same way people on this blog relate to.

Older players

It said that “Fire Joe Morgan” had been removed, so I’m not sure if I got to read all of what you were referring to.

I doubt you would see responses that were much better from other players, especially older ones that are obviously not using much stat analysis in their opinions.

Maybe he shouldn’t be a broadcaster, but he is a color guy that is there to bring a perspective on the game. Granted his perspective is not always based on actual stats which makes him wrong in some of his analysis. That is what pisses people off that are more rigid fact/stat guys. I guess I would just let some of that stuff go. I still think he shouldn’t be called an idiot where baseball is concerned.

I may be biased, the 76 Reds were my first real exposure to MLB. It was unbelievable to watch.

I'm just venting

They have a really good defense and some pitching, that’ll always win you games. Their offense blows, though.

Which surprises me, considering they have Ichiro, Branyan, Griffey, and a few other good bats

Their lineup isn’t terrible, not like the Royals

Griffey's wOBA is tied with Clete Thomas, Stephen Drew, and Fernando Tatis

A point ahead of such ballers as Josh Hamilton, Alexei Ramirez, and Brandon Inge
A point below renowned sluggers Elvis Andrus, Felix Pie, and Jamey Carroll

Like they don’t give a shit about giving us a call. Sorta like old days.

Why would they care about giving either team a call?

This game is meaningless for both teams.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that this being the first GDT in a couple weeks with over 100 posts means there is spillover from the OTTOTD

The girls left. According to one patron, Hamilton, piss-drunk by that point, asked the manager where he could buy blow. The manager didn't know. "Let's go to a strip club," Hamilton said. Someone drove Hamilton to Les Girls in Phoenix, Arizona.
