LOL, can you say midlife crisis?

Wait a minute, what do you mean " not the champ"?????

I don't feel the least bit sorry for him, and nor can the courts. You can't lay down the precendence that this will be tolerated. If you let him off too easy you tell people that their actions have no consequences which I hate to see happen. Add to it the drugs and alcohol levels that were in his blood, when he and his son attacked Gamboa, and they have to be made an example of, IMHO.

I've made four games this year so far, and managed to see the benches cleared twice in them. I think I have picked pretty well so far this year!

If we can go 3-3 combined against Seattle and Oakland, I will not be upset. Anything more than that is a bonus. To win the division all we have to do is play .500 against the good teams and play good ball against the bad teams.

Garland's learning curve is a little different than your usual pitcher. You are talking about a guy who was drafted out of HS at 18 yrs old and rushed to the majors. He has been learning things at the majors that he should have been learning at a much more relaxed pace in the minors. Up here he is under the micoscope for every start, which makes it much harder to learn.

20 innings 677 pitches!

Speaking of the Twins, do people realize that if it weren't for the Tigers, the Twins would be the worst offensive team in the AL in a mulitutude of categories including batting average, on base %age, and slugging percentage. With RISP they already rank last in on base %age, slugging %age, and OPS along withe 2nd to last in batting average.

Hopefully we see the Buehrle that pitched in the last 6 innings against the Twins and not the other MB we had seen in the 5 or so innings previous to that. This could be another huge momentum series seeing as how badly we have played against the West Coast teams in recent years.

As long as it isn't the Bulls who draft him!

Nossek is the "manager" but I swear every single time they showed a picture of him in the dugout he was on the phone. The question is who was on the other end, Kenny or Jerry?

That is a great idea for a promo. Yet another reason why minor league baseball has a lot of appeal to me.

I have been cautiously optimistic when it comes to EL, but he keeps on keepin on, so far. Maybe the slap in the face of having absolutely no one offer you a major league contract, after being a #1 starter was enough to drive him to actually work harder this year and listen to what the coaches are saying, instead of just making the same annual mistakes.

It is a good idea to win 110 games[/code]

The anemic duo both got one year deals with club options for '04 as did all of the FA's we signed this year. Thomas has an option for '04. Pauly and Maggs are the only ones signed through 04.

Yeah but eventually you get the Boras backlash, where certian teams won't even deal with him because of his dirty dealings in the past.

Its voodoo, with 100 percent certainty. Trust me. Well.. I'll know for sure after tonight. K, but i already know for sure. So what happened? Nothing.. Brando was a no show. Hmm this ought to fuel the conspiracy theorists...

Hey Rex- what do you think of them trying to turn Corwin into a closer? Just an idea I had.

He still posts on ESPN, if it is the same one you are talking about. Absolutely a pathetic troll. There are much better ones over there.

lol, it is kinda like being 90% through a bad movie... You've come this far, you've just gotta know what happened...

Yeah no matter how times change there is always Geraldo to make an idiot of himself on national television. I wonder if he kept the bottles from Capones vault?

Does anyone else but me, looking back at the ejection, think it was a little bit manufactured? Not that matters, because it did what it needed to...

and twenty innings of baseball with St Louis and Florida.
