  1. He was jumping on the couch like a fool. His agent must have been in a cold sweat.
  2. I like Cruise movies, but think he is missing a few screws. He acted like a complete idiot with Katie Holmes.
  3. I think VA is a Tom Cruise fan, so maybe she is okay with that.
  4. Greta is a liberal. Take that back. Our VA is no liberal.
  5. As frustrating as the hitting has been, improving the pitching is paramount. A team with the worst pitching will not be successful no matter how good its hitting. Our hitting has been showing signs of life lately. In a post steroid age, good pitching is the key. Just last night 6 pitchers threw quality starts and lost their games : Carlos Martinez, Kershaw, Danks, Urena, Baumgarner, and Zimmerman. Additionally, Hector Santiago went 5 innings giving up only 2 runs and got the Loss. A quality start is often not enough and we don't get enough quality starts. The first step to getting better -- improve the garbage pail pitching.
  6. That is his challenge. I think he realizes that his job is on the line so he will have to make some changes.
  7. Ben is a standup guy and so was Theo. They have always been willing to take responsibility even when others held them blameless.
  8. Did Ben make a statement today?
  9. So we are going to roll out Cy Kelly to the mound again today . . . seriously? Another day clicks off the calendar and make no moves. Irrelevancy is making a quick advance on us, and our current crew doesn't have what it takes to stave it off.
  10. If the Cards are so good at getting information from teams, why didn't they get Donaldson... Huh?
  11. I voted yes, so I think we are in agreement on this one. However, I don't think it will happen by regressing to the mean. We are at a critical juncture. Moves need to be made soon to turn things around.
  12. It's great to get a win, but sucked to miss it because of work.
  13. Some of you will want more choices, but there are only 2-- yes or no.
  14. The Mets DFA'd Dillon Gee today-- a pitcher who is very similar to Rick Porcello. He's two years older, but with far fewer innings of wear and tear. Let's see if anyone rushes to pick him up and throw $80 million at him for 4 years.
  15. Brandon Workman to get TJ surgery.
  16. If they lose 10 in a row, there will be a mercy firing.
  17. Recycled trash at bat with the game on the line
  18. Napoli is toast. He started his decline last season.
  19. When he gets a hold of one, it goes a long way.
  20. Pete, this is the worst baseball that I have seen in Red Sox uniforms. Even bad Red Sox teams could pound the baseball, and they played exciting high scoring games. This is crap in every aspect of the game. I remember a very hapless Yankee team like this, but that was all the way back in 1968.
  21. Would that pickoff fall under the stupid baserunning stat? We get so few runners yet we keep getting ourselves thrown out.
  22. I vote that Holt play all 8 defensive positions at the same time.
  23. The starters are steadfast about maintaining their 5+ ERA.
  24. He seems to have abandoned the power sinker.
