great minds think alike?? nah … i just got lucky

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 5:58 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

tried starting one … hopefully Jay deleted it.

They should’ve sent Choo for novelty.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 5:57 PM EDT   0 recs

Garko, fuck off. Just hit a fucking sac fly.

Jesus.

ok, my gamecenter is stuck … what happened after Jhonny’s single?

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:00 PM EDT   0 recs

never mind, it just updated

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:00 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Choo hit to the right field wall, where it bounced around and Choo got a triple.

And Marte just struck out. He’s clearly struggling with the weird arm angle.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:01 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

The fact that we couldn’t just Sac JP home is infuriating.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:01 PM EDT   0 recs

i actually did ok with my earlier prediction though …. but it probably wont matter today

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:01 PM EDT   0 recs

Brooke Hogan is so unattractive. This a ruse being perpetrated on the American people.

Casey Kotchman, 5-5.

Great.

Jensen is worthless.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:05 PM EDT   0 recs

but how is his velocity?

by Brick. on Jul 23, 2008 6:10 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Fine, I guess. Spotting about 90 on the fastball.

The velocity’s not the problem, I fear.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:10 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

JFC …. another fing double??? are they setting it on a T-ball stand ???

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:06 PM EDT   0 recs

what, is that 6 today?

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:06 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

so how are we going to get a new bullpen for next year

by Gradyforpresident on Jul 23, 2008 6:08 PM EDT   0 recs

Trade for Jon Rauch.

Oh wait.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:09 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Nope make that 7 2Bs and a grand salami … for a rip roaring .800 SLG today … absolutely sweet

i love how weather the game is close, a blow out, ahead or behind – EVERY time we have gotten vlad out “and one BIG out there!”

by Brick. on Jul 23, 2008 6:09 PM EDT   0 recs

Staying within 5 is important.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:09 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Alright just keep it within 7.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:12 PM EDT   0 recs

It’s like every time we score 1 run they have to score 2 runs, just to prove some kind of point.

How is Gary Matthews allowed to play in the majors?

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:17 PM EDT   0 recs

Bloody hell. That should have been a 2-run shot.

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:18 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

with the Grady homer, how huge is getting Vlad out now?!

by Brick. on Jul 23, 2008 6:18 PM EDT   0 recs

It is impossible to overstate the importance of getting Vlad out now.

by gte619n on Jul 23, 2008 6:19 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

40/40, BABY.

by gte619n on Jul 23, 2008 6:18 PM EDT   0 recs

i guessed 35/35 at start of season … but 40/40 is a strong possibility now

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:19 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

He is EXACTLY on pace for 40/40.

Do it grady.

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:21 PM EDT   0 recs

was he just wild? or were they purpose pitches?

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:23 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Our best player is up.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:21 PM EDT   0 recs

Ok, 2nd best.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:22 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

So are we still on pace to set the HBP record?

by gte619n on Jul 23, 2008 6:22 PM EDT   0 recs

Jhonny ,,, make him pay

Who the F is Jose Arredondo?

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:22 PM EDT   0 recs

has nice numbers apparently. i’d never heard of him

by Gradyforpresident on Jul 23, 2008 6:23 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

he actually might be their closer next year if KRod bolts. Excellent stuff

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:23 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

This year’s stats

and his minor league stats

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:26 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Good lord to those K rates.

Told ya!

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:29 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

am I missing something? 9 K/9? That’s not ungodly, especially for a reliever.

by gte619n on Jul 23, 2008 6:31 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I think I got the IP line mixed up on his 2006 campaign.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:33 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

pretty good actually, but his WHIP is pretty dang low.

I didn’t see how he threw though … was his stuff filthy?

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:33 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Can Garko get a 3rd hit today …...

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:27 PM EDT   0 recs

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:27 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Odds on Casey Blake booting one and the Angels scoring as a result? I’ll say 3 to 1.

i still can’t believe mlb wouldn’t at least give moreno a store credit or someting on the matthews contract. it’s not like he didn’t have the reciept.

by Brick. on Jul 23, 2008 6:34 PM EDT   0 recs

Rincon resembles Betancourt on the mound.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:36 PM EDT   0 recs

because he takes 2 minuted to throw each pitch?

by talonk on Jul 23, 2008 6:36 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Because he’s sort of fat.

by afh4 on Jul 23, 2008 6:37 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yesterday, he was announced as Mujica.

LeCavs!
If you were good enough, maybe we'd name it after you.

by Matt in LA on Jul 23, 2008 6:37 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I know I’m behind here, but worst pinch hit at bat ever. Marte would’ve tied the game with a single swing – even though we were down 4 with 2 on.
