I dont think he would be available to the team leading the Wildcard right now unless they were mathematically out of it
not to mention he needs to be waiver or dfa'd... there's no point to discuss it.
preston wilson is a good defender, and used soley against lefties would be a fine addition... BUT who do you get rid of to bring him on? Or, I guess with 40-man's coming up...
I don't see how Detroit fans could argue that Maggs has been the better player this year (last year we won't even discuss!)
Jermaine, .325, 30, 87, and leads all of baseball with a 1.025 OPS
Maggs, .297, 16, 79, .816 OPS
it's not even debatable.

Rob Mackowiak not hitting well? Huh?
He's hitting .299 this year, 27 points higher than his previous high. And his OBP is sitting way above his career numbers as well.
I'd say he's doing damn fine.
agreed.
With FOX, it shouldnt be a big deal. They should just have an MLB Extra Innings w/FOX package. FOX has no problem taking money for the NFL Sunday Ticket.
I'm glad I get the U, but I'd much rather be able to watch the game in HD at my buddy's...
PS, the title of this thread should have been changed to, "That is TOTAL B.S!"

As many red blooded americans can attact the Chuck Norris Bridge as they went, it wont have any effect.
The Chuck Norris Bridge can only be destroyed by Chuck Norris the Man.
One of the most inovative functions of the bridge, according to some sources, is for it to totally dislodge from its placements and deliver a round house kick. This was designed by Chuck Norris the architect of pain.
I heart MarlinFan84.

For Liriano's sake (and ours)...I hope he sits the rest of the year...but I have a feeling that Minny will rush him back if it's still tight for the WC which would be disasterous for him in the long haul. I'd hope Gardenhire is smarter than that.
wanne... i f-ing love this sig of yours
As Jimmy Kimmel said last night, this would be a good, strategic move... in case Hungary was ever in disputes with the US because "what red-blooded American soldier would bomb the Chuck Norris Bridge?"

He has 3 Hr's since July 16th. After having 10 each in April and May and 8 in July ( 6 of those being in the first 2 weeks. )
He has leveled off of late . I think he may be trying to beat those shifts and not pulling as much. He improved so much at hitting opposite field since April. Maybe saving his last wind for October.
What does everyone else think? Maybe a Sore back? Maybe that is having him push singles and doubles instead of going for solo bombs.
im thinking he's just getting tired.

I don't care how he does it, but get Carl Crawford in left field at the cell next year.
The Cubs could be celebrating 100 years a futility in the near future. I am not sure how that can not motivate them to spend money this off season. Another Sox playoff run would only add more pressure.
Carl Crawford is the absolute, #1 target I would go after as well. I don't see the Sox beating out a team like LA, or BOS to get him, but if they could... wow.

The point is, a big name means nothing if he's not any good. I'm talking about the big name free agents as in the best available players, not just popular names.
oh man, kalapse, you did say sandy alomar is a possible future HOF... regardless of what you meant, for shame! for shame!
