    When he was drunk and crippled, Mantle was still better than everyone else. Yaz liked his beer, but I don't remember too many stories about drunk bar hopping like Mantle.

    I have said it since before Spring Training that our staff is comprised of a pair of 4s a pair of 5s and a 3. That just can't cut it over the course of a full season.

    David Wright got injured and forced my hand so I decided to give ARod a trial run.

    I don't know how or why anyone would expect Buch to be an ace. Last season he wasn't injured. He made 28 starts and his results were putrid. What did people expect him to find to turn around his performance?
  5. a700hitter
    See him in 3 months.
  6. a700hitter
    Nice win.

    ARod was a good waiver wire pickup.

    They say that he hung on too long, because he could barely move around. Watching him limp around the bases on his 500th home run was sad and painful to watch. He was pretty crippled at the end. He was Mickey Friggin Mantle. The other players were in awe of his talent. While his slash line was okay, he was no longer Mickey Mantle.

    Trade him and free up a spot for Castillo.

    At least Kelly has a power arm. He's our only rotation power arm.

    They really should shorten the season to 150 games or reinstitute scheduled Sunday double headers so there are more open dates in the schedule. Greed prevents the scheduled DH's. Players sped up those games on their own, because they didn't want to be playing for 10 hours.

    I agree. We all fall prey to the darker sides of our nature from time to time, but it has been a well-traveled 2 way street with Fred where he has been outnumbered. I am pretty sure that Fred would be happy to just direct his anger at the FO, the players and ocassionally an umpire. Why people take offense to that is beyond me, but they do, and the s*** storm gets stirred and everyone behves badly while claiming righteous idignation.

    More than half the posts mentioning you are about you and not about your opinions or ideas about baseball. That gets tiresome, and they are not good natured at all, and they know it. Pete (Spud) is a mature level-headed guy who usually stays out of that fray, but we all behave badly at times.

    Random coincidences like this are always interesting to me.

    The Cubs are promotiing Kris Bryant tonight. That should bring some excitement to Cubs fans. It should help enhance the allure of the Cubs.

    More out of fear of Longoria who was going to break him in a half a few times for dogging it. The guy played like a dog his entire time in Tampa.
  17. a700hitter
    Maybe bouchery-ish

    And anyone can look bookish by wearing coke-bottle eyeglasses.

    He could never motivate Upton to play hard. The guy dogged it all the time.
  20. a700hitter
    Fred, they are clearly obsessed with you. You should list what you ate for breakfast to see if half a dozen posters dissect that post.
  21. a700hitter
    I think you guys should hug it out.
  22. a700hitter
    Dean, you can really turn a phrase.
  23. a700hitter
    Buchholz is the real wild card in the rotation. In a rotation that is a pile of mediocrity, Porcello seems to be the best bet to be the leader of the pack, but there have been stretches in Buchholz's career where he has been exceptional. If he can get on one of those runs, like he was on at the beginning of 2013, that could really jump start this team's fortunes. However, if he pitches to last year's 5.43 ERA, this very mediocre rotation will put tremendous pressure on the offense to produce big numbers.

    Don't get all Butt-hurt and sensitive or I will spam your pm inbox. Ooops!
  25. a700hitter
    Corrected.
