It only hurts if you start making promotions based on a timetable....

and not based on the development. In the long road, it’s more important to get the deal done now and get him in the system.

But he now has to be in the majors for good in 4 years.

That isn’t good because you have to push him. Obvioulsy everyone expects the bat to allow that, but it forces him to RF from the beginning and forces you to promote hime ven if he struggles. I just think it’s short-sighted to give a 17 YO a deal that says they HAVE to be in the majors for good by 21.

Kind of.

If he struggles in his first year then tears an ACL in his 2nd they will still have to push him.

Boras should (IMO) consider this. It could cost him millions in the long run.

This stipulation was probably the hanging point

Clearly the kid wants to be fast-tracked and this assures it. If he makes the Majors by 19-20, then he’s talking about a potential 20 years of service time. That’s at least two long-term contracts after his initial 6 years. It’s all about the opportunity to get up quick and play a long time. He couldn’t be assured they would fast-track him without this clause. Now it’s on him to go out and perform and he seems up to the challenge. I like it from their perspective.

I think you're looking at the lowest 10th percentile for Harper's career.

There’s a pretty good chance he’s an above average player. Even if he’s just a decent regular, he’ll still get paid and probably enough chances to earn some cash. Look at Delmon Young. He’s putting it together right as it’s pay time.

Ah, I just saw three years tossed around.

They could actually screw him out of using an option — although I’m not sure it’s really screwing — by promoting him around September 1. Then they’d have four more years to promote/demote. The service time wouldn’t matter in the long-run either.

Don’t the options start now? Are you suggesting promoting him THIS Spetember?

by rglass44 on Aug 17, 2010 11:55 AM EDT up reply actions  

Yes.

If they demote him for the rest of the season, it’s an option used.

If they demote him and recall him within 20 days? No option used.

Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino reprimanded an employee of Hog Sports Radio on Saturday for wearing a Florida Gator cap to a post-scrimmage press conference. You can watch video of Petrino’s comment above.

Apparently there were further consequences for radio host Renee Gork, who committed the fashion and professional faux pas while on the clock for 99.5 FM in NWA.

Gork, a University of Florida graduate tweeted Monday from the station’s Twitter account that she had been fired. Her hope was to apologize on air.

"Was hoping to publicly apologize to coach Petrino and UA fans on the show today, but I won’t get that chance now … I’ve been fired."

This seems a little outdated to me.

The Rays, for instance, broadcast all of their games on Sunshine, the Marlins broadcast theirs on FSN. So people in Miami can watch our games, and people in St. Pete can watch Marlins games.

A quick search will show you fans living in remote parts being extremely frustrated that they can’t watch their team even if they want to pay for extra innings.

What I thought the Rays could do.

Is negotiate a TV deal with Bright House and broadcast games on their sports network, while having those broadcasts re-sold to over-the-air networks for people on other cable companies and in other markets to watch. That way, every one would get to see the game, but expanded coverage like pre and post-game would remain on Bright House only, thus being a source of advertising for them while incentivizing business.

But, say, the Mets and SNY? I have no idea how that contract works.

by R.J. Anderson on Aug 17, 2010 11:51 AM EDT up reply actions  

You're right.
When YES launched, Goldman Sachs owned a minority share of the network. In late 2003, the Yankees and Nets decided to part ways, with the Nets being sold to a group led by real-estate developer Bruce Ratner. This sale did not include the Nets’ ownership stake in YES, which remained with the pre-merger owners of the team. In 2004, YankeeNets was renamed Yankee Global Enterprises LLC, which owns the Yankees and YES as separate companies. Therefore, the Yankees technically do not own YES. The Yankees, however, receive a rights fee from YES that is somewhat higher than MSG previously paid. In 2007, the portion of the network owned by Goldman Sachs was put up for sale for estate taxes reasons;1 the Yankees will reportedly keep their stake in the network.

Assuming Wiki is right here.

Marlins used to train over by Cocoa Beach and a lot of my friends were from there so it probably biased my opinion, but as of 2007 they used to show about 50/50 Marlins/Rays games. 2008 you started to see a lot more Rays games and then 2009 it was exclusively Rays.

Orlando is a big market that is just a little too far to be truly tapped into for gameday fans

I think the TV ratings are generally pretty strong, but if you get out of work at 5 you have almost no chance of getting to the Trop before the first pitch. This is something I would love to see addressed with a new stadium, though some kind of high speed light rail could be a better solution.

I think Orlando is a huge growth opportunity for the Rays over the next 40 years.

If growth patterns materialize, the Orlando-Tampa corridor is going to become one huge megalopolis, and if HSR is done right and sustainable transit-oriented development accompanies infrastructure investment, getting to Rays games from Central Florida should be painless. That’s why I hope that if the Rays do go to Tampa, they’ll invest in a stadium in the northern part of downtown Tampa, close to the HSR station and I-275. It’s an underdeveloped area, at least as urban centers go, so the ballpark could really boost activity in that area, and people could just walk from the transit hub to the stadium.

There was so much potential and we're stuck with a pre-cast concrete box with a glass "enigma".

HOK or Populous or whatever they’re called now is not a firm that should be designing art museums. They’re much more commercial.

I would have much rather seen this project go to someone local and someone much more creative as an architect. Wannamacher + Jenson would have been a good fit.

Agree to disagree, I guess.

But TMA is essentially a box on top of a glass box, and since they keep the artwork on the second story, there is the same amount of non-exposure to natural light for the art pieces.

by Patrick L. Kennedy on Aug 17, 2010 12:40 PM EDT up reply actions  

Not true at all.

The entire skin of the second box is perforated with holes to allow natural light in. As well as plenty of skylights that filter the light to protect the surface of the paintings. Not to mention plenty of outdoor gallery space.

Game Faces: Portraits of Baseball Players from the Smithsonian National
Portrait Gallery
This exhibit features sixteen images of baseball players in oils, photographs, pen and ink and serigraphs to demonstrate the depth of the National Portrait Gallery’s “Champion of American Sport Collection.” The exhibit includes an Andy Warhol of Pete Rose, magazine cover art, an oil canvas of Ty Cobb dating from 1916, plus photos of Ted Willams (1958) and Sandy Koufax (1963).

I remember going to see this exhibit in St. Pete.

When the Int’l Museum was still in the old Maas Bros. building. Probably the last thing I saw there. I kind of miss that place, they had some good special exhibitions between Treasures of the Czars and Titanic, among other things. Now all of that stuff seems to go to MOSI or nowhere locally.

I applied mostly out-of-state, but the two in-state schools I applied to were FSU and UM. Florida State, essentially, was a safety school that I applied to in case I needed to fall back on Bright Futures. Of the state universities, it appealed the most to me being in the capital city and having a good poli sci/law program.

UM I applied to just because I wanted to keep my options open, and I figured that it would be a great place to go to school for Latin American studies and diplomacy in the same area.

Latin American relations have been so one-sided in the past that the U.S. is struggling with antagonism in that region right now.

They do have a bunch of parties.

But the presidential election, at least recently, always comes down to the candidates from the center-left (PT, Lula’s party) and center-right (PSDB, the party of ex-president Fernando Henrique Cardoso). There are some other candidates that will pull five to ten percent of the vote, forcing a runoff election, but the final two candidates are always legitimate.

PMDB is kind of a wild-card, being an amorphous third party that is just kind of centrist and is invested more in being in power than anything else. They don’t really have strong leadership to run in presidential elections, but they frequently get the most seats in the legislature.

Other parties are stronger regionally, and they range from the left to the right wing. For example, the Mayor of the city of Sao Paulo is part of Democratas, a right-wing party, but that party usually joins PSDB’s coalition in presidential elections.

Glassy, gonna explain the Harper contract in more depth tonight.

I forgot about one aspect that guarantees he won’t use an option this season.

by R.J. Anderson on Aug 17, 2010 12:21 PM EDT reply actions  

Basically:

1. He’s not spending 90 days in the minors this season, so no option used.
2. If he gets hurt and doesn’t have 60 days of active time before that point, then the DL time doesn’t count, meaning no option used if he tears his ACL in May next year.
3. They could play him in short season ball next season, and since no SS league leasts more than 90 days, again, no option used.
4. They’ll have four options over five years starting next season, if they don’t do 3 and he doesn’t fall into 2.

You totally hate Justin Bieber, right, because you’re a rebel, or whatever? That’s just because you haven’t listened to Bieber slowed down 800 percent. Now his new single “U Smile” is a 30-minute epic. And it sounds awesome. No, really.

Courtesy musician Nick Pittsinger, using the free program Paulstretch, this is “U Smile” made slower. Like, a lot slower—eight times slower, to be exact. And all of a sudden the not-bad piano pop track sounds like the climactic score to some kind of historical epic, or Dead Can Dance, or, like, Animal Collective, or something. It sounds like the ocean, but, like, in heaven, man. Plus, it’s 35 minutes long:

Because if it was possible, people here would throw a ticker-tape parade for him if he walked.

And Bartlett beat that throw by a good second. It was a bad play by their 2nd baseman bobbling the ball; any player on this team beats that throw, he just happened to be the guy on base.

“After two weeks at Miami, I wanted to go home,” Huff said. "So my mom flies out, trying to convince me to stay. I was living with two seniors and they ragged me, too. I just didn’t understand all this baseball ragging nonsense. She’s in my room one night and I’m sitting on my bed and she’s telling me to give it another two weeks.

“Anyway, there’s a knock on the door, and before I can even get off the bed, Pat comes barging in with a six-pack in his hand, dripping wet, buck naked.

“So I jumped up and shut the door. Coming from Texas, these things didn’t happen. I said, ‘See what I’m dealing with here, mom?’

“She just started laughing and said, ‘Actually, Aubrey, that’s pretty darn funny.’

“I thought, ‘My God, if my mom can laugh at this, why can’t I?’ "

I didn't realize they gave up all those picks and exceptions, they cooked
This better work for Pat Riley, as the Heat have shot their budget until 2016, and quietly gave up four first-round and two second-round draft choices in the sign-and-trades that completed the package. Miami also surrendered two “trade exceptions” (in the NBA, cap allowances can be traded). Even in a soft-cap league, the Heat will have no powder left in their keg for several years. In recent NBA history, teams that have mortgaged their caps and draft positions — think of the Knicks — soon regretted doing so.

so essentially they have the MLE every year

which will likely be a smaller portion (less money) of the cap if the cba is restructured (likely will be).

they are going to be one hell of a team either way, but if one of their guys gets injured, they will be somewhat mediocre with no real way of getting better. they will have no tradeable assets whatsoever, as they have the three amigos and then all 30+ guys, chalmers aside, on their team.

I'm not going to make excuses but here are some excuses.
“The field position we were in when I was in was just terrible,” Ward said. "The mud was up to my ankles. I’m not going to make any excuses. It was a preseason game. That’s what we’re playing for, to get better each week and get ready for the season.
 
“Those weren’t football conditions. I mean, c’mon. The infield of a baseball stadium. But you can’t make excuses. You’ve got to play, and you’ve got to do what you need to do to win. Hopefully, we’re here at Raymond James this weekend and we won’t have any sand or mud on the field, so that will be good. Hopefully, I’ll be able to have a good rushing night.”
