  1. does this web site have a hall of fame? jeez, we gotta induct Berto tonite!!!!! the passion and anger in his voice reminds me of myself after 5 beers.
  2. funniest part is that the article is from 5 years ago. Not one damn thing has changed
  3. four game sweep by the Ray's this weekend would be the bottom. I fully suspect it will happen.
  4. actually, I'd never heard that before. I've always said he was fast for a big man though. I would bet he's faster to first base than TA. Tim is the slowest guy out of the batters box on the team. Maybe even the whole league.
  5. Does JR know a fellow owner or any one else not named TLR, whose opinion he trusts? If he doesn't, then we're stuck with what we've got. He could get rid of KW and RH, but the only person left would be Getz. Would that be an improvement? No one really knows. I suppose he couldn't do worse.
  6. Saw some folks today really slamming Sosa. Hang in there. He's hit at every level. He's 23. when Robin Ventura was 23, he had a slugging average of .318. The next year he broke out and became a star. Also try to remember the Sox's alternatives. Elvis is bad and he'll; get worse. Romy is 4 years older than Sosa. This kid has had 66 at bats in the majors, and has been in two of the worst clubhouses in I can remember. If we trade him and then he starts to hit, we'll just be doing what we always do. I don't want a repeat of the Marcus Semien fiasco.
  7. The post title never really makes it clear which Twins series they were writing about.
  8. He was very patient in college. Lack of playing time from injuries took it away. He'll get it back with more playing time
  9. Just a question. Can plate discipline be taught? I wonder if good teams draft it, or can it be learned?
  10. 30+ years ago I read my first "baseball prospectus" by Bill James. It was then I knew we were fucked.
  11. It's kinda weird, but in Vegas this would probably be an even money bet.
  12. Kepp was the epitome of "buy high,sell low".
  13. probably burger was the best pick. lower spot in draft than vaughn. no one can predict injury.
  14. sounds about right. we suck.
  15. We should put it up to a vote!!
  16. Jake "the Royal with cheese" Burger. Too bad Chris Berman is old now.
  17. Does Vaughn look like he's shrinking to anyone else? He finally gets his patience back and now he can't hit it far. I'm not kidding about the shrinking though. Get back on the creotene.
  18. In this organization, even the minor leaguers miss more games due to injury than they play in.
  19. I've spent the last 40 years as a cog in the wheel. For the most part, I'm ok with it. My kids turned out pretty well. The wife and I have more than most . I'm lucky enough to see my grand kids all the time. But it really hurts to see fools ruining the destiny of my first love. Kenny and Rick are in over their heads and always have been. Knowing JR couldn't care less makes it worse. We've all been saying the same thing in different ways for 15 years. What's the point? The worst part is billionaires live a long time.
  20. I think I may have told you before, but your "this day" posts are great. Keep it up!
