Nice, I wonder if anyone from my high school will ever become famous. They still got time. I did go to the same school as D'Backs CF AJ Pollock.

 

 

One of my high school classmates is in the NFL (Lions) and another one was playing professional basketball in Romania but got killed in a bar fight. A crap load of my friends are in the armed forces in one way or another.

There's one kid at my HS now who has a shot at the NBA. I'm serious. He's also pretty good at baseball. Only thing holding him back is overconfidence.

End this one so we can get to New York. Sadly, NYC is my home away from home. Go there more than Boston. Not to Yankee games or anything.

You enjoy the smell of piss stained sidewalks and overflowing garbage?

Of the 82 something kids in the public school in my town (I went to a private high school) I believe 5 of them are in jail, or were at some point. Keep in mind, I graduated in 2006.

 

Is this in England or the US?

Iglesias CAN NOT be sent down. He's an excellent fielder, an excellent baserunner and he's actually hitting. When Middlebrooks returns, and Iglesias cools off, have him start against lefthanders. He's hit them to the tune of .333/.360/.458 entering tonight and Drew struggles against lefthanders.

 

David Ortiz is a tremendous influence on him. His acting out ******** in the minors didn't happen when Ortiz was down there. He'll learn just as much in the majors working with video and major league hitting coaches and hitters.

JBJ's going back. He was only called up for this series. Iggy's not going back until Middlebrooks returns.

Right, I mean when Middlebrooks returns and we decide between keeping Iglesias or Ciriaco.

JBJ was called up specifically to man LF in NYY. Victorino is scheduled to come off the DL on the 5th.

 

Not sure if by 'this series' you meant Philly or NYY, but he won't be back until the 5th.

beside Ells, we had nobody else that is capable of playing CF so Bradley had to come up. Our bench is quite awful.

That's what happens when you have two of your regulars on the DL. Two bench guys become regulars, and your bench runs thin.

Iglesias is hitting .419/.447/.535, Daniel Nava is hitting .289/.398/.472, Mike Carp is hitting .270/.313/.587. Do you know how many teams would kill for that kind of production from their roleplayer/bench guys?
