MLBN, yeah.

Oh, hey, Valbeuna! Awesome!

I like the look of Valbuena – I’m feeling really good about him
by APV on Feb 26, 2009 6:51 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
So what did I miss? Any especially good/bad performances?
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
by Jay on Feb 26, 2009 6:51 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
I’ve missed most of it – Tomo Ohka, incredibly bad

Tomo Ohka, incredibly bad
I think Tabler’s dad could’ve gotten a hit off him
by APV on Feb 26, 2009 6:52 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Neifi.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
by Jay on Feb 26, 2009 6:52 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Tabler’s dad, yes. Not sure if Neifi Perez could have gotten a hit, though.
by APV on Feb 26, 2009 6:54 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Ha! Wonder if Tomo realizes the convergence of events that are required to precede his pitching in a major league game for the Tribe.

It isn’t that unlikely.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
by Jay on Feb 26, 2009 7:03 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Well, sure. Double headers; injuries; fall from contention. But still.
by tabler84 on Feb 26, 2009 7:05 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Not fall from contention, just untimely need for a tenth starter.
Pavano, Reyes, Laffey injured. Sowers, Jackson ineffective. Not that unlikely.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
by Jay on Feb 26, 2009 7:07 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Right. But we should also add that he needs to not pitch like he did today. I mean, they’d bring out Elarton before that mess.

or Cassel.
Travis Hafner is overrated. Clarity is underrated. David Dellucci is David Dellucci.

No great problem there, except for Clippers management.
Who starts the inaugural game at The Hunt? Sowers?
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
by Jay on Feb 26, 2009 6:52 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I guess out of respect, the organization has to start with Sowers.
by APV on Feb 26, 2009 6:55 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Thinking stocky but effective infielders are undervalued, like short RHP.
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Is Saarloos really little – or is that just my TV stretching the picture funny?

I looked away at the wrong moment, how did Brown look on that play?
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

Just got caught up. The Astros are winning. LaBomba for President. Happy birthday DeRosa. Tomo Ohka is not this year’s Cy Young winner. Anything else I miss?

He wasn’t supposed to pitch today, if that’s what has you worried.

Nope, just general terror

By the way, APV, my dad picked a sweet pic of him walking off the field in catcher gear for his Fantasy Camp card. It’s kind of how I imagine Sal Fasano will look in… about six years.

Vaguely spectacular catch by Barfield … in CF?
Well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

He could still become Mark McLemore

He’d actually have to hit the ball occasionally to become Mark McLemore
by woodsmeister on Feb 27, 2009 9:28 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
See, that was just uncalled for. Everyone knows he can’t hit, or at least hasn’t hit since 2007.

by Manhattan Tribe Fan on Feb 26, 2009 7:18 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
He’s pretty far removed from the major league club, right? 64 seems like the number you give to LaPorta or Miller or Meloan, not Edell.

He’s not so far. He’ll see time in Columbus this year. Could even start the season there.

Wow. I own a script I hat, and I love the logo. And yet it just now hit me that there is a “C” buried in that script I.

woah. and a script lower-case L too.

well, if you see the C, then look at it as if it were the word cleveland in cursive, on an upwards slant.

I’ve never watched spring training games before, but the horrendousity of the defense is kind of off-putting. It’s like an NBA All-Star game.
Watching dudes fight off that “high sky” is a little scary. Someone’s going to take one in the melon this spring.
