  1. pavanos awesome as is jarrett wright 17,000,000.00 per year for these studs and i am your host mr rourke welcome to fantasy island
  2. is it a history of arm problems or 1 surgery?? i only recall him missing a lot of time once in his career and really do the mets scare anyone?? 86 yr old tommy glavine cant break a pane of glass petey is reeling from?? who knows how f***ed up he really is is it his hip is it his toe is it his shoulder?? now food poisining?? st louis flat out sucks houston has done nothing with the return of raja cincinatti?? i have no idea what that franchise did last week but it made no sense the west? i wont take the bait as there are rockie fans here that have a reason to watch the rest of the season for a change the nl is as wide open as ever with the mets being a favorite but a vulnerable 1 at that
  3. hopefully the king of K's can pitch cause with wake not able to throw 6ip in a month we now need a 4and a 5 b a d did i mention nobody sane trades pitching
  4. the hard part about hitting the screw ball is you never see them as i said the last pitcher to master it in the majors has been out of the league for 15 years like the knuckler,the screw ball is a pitch that hitters just dont see and if a pitcher can throw it consistantly for strikes its trouble
  5. braves won 5 in a row they got a ton of games left with the mets as well they,like the rest of the nl,should be in the hunt till the end so this smoltz talk may just be a waste of time cause if atlanta has a shot they wont part with their best pitcher
  6. screw balls are a hard pitch to master perhaps the hardest due the unnatural arm angle the last good screwball pitcher i saw in the majors was fernando valenzuela bill campbell used to throw a good one and dennis boyd was known to use it from time to time its very rare
  7. Jeter gets credit for saving the Yankees with that flip to home plate but doesn't get blamed for the team's postseason failures since. And think of the times he's been bailed out. His four-strikeout performance against the Twins in the 2004 playoffs was erased because “choker” Alex Rodriguez lifted the Yankees with a monster performance in the same game. And once Aaron Boone hit the Game 7 homer to carry Jeter and the rest of the Yankees past the Red Sox, it didn't matter that Jeter was 7-for-30 with three runs and two RBIs. Perception takes a bat to reality. Pretty good deal if you can get it. Instead, we celebrate his eighthinning homer to beat the Royals earlier this month with tabloid headlines about clutchness even though, according to the Elias Sports Bureau, it was only the second time in Jeter's career that he had any kind of hit after the eighth inning to drive in both the tying and winning runs. Bernie Williams is the only other offensive Yankee to have been around for this entire run, and he has exactly the same number of postseason at-bats as Jeter: 462. In those at-bats, Williams has six more homers, 11 more doubles, 21 more walks, 33 more RBIs, two more runs and seven fewer strikeouts. i like the part that reads We ignore that no player in baseball, not one, made more outs to end games last season with the tying or winning run on base than Jeter did.
  8. next to a very young lester curt schilling has been our only consistant starter this year another turn for our #5 and another beating in a winnable game its a little redundant waiving the white flag in 20% of our ballgames before the 1st pitch and whats the deal with beckett? despite 11 wins and his health i'd have to consider him a disappointment he should be pushing 15 wins and an era of 5.12 as of this morning is shall i say below expectations to say the least he hasnt been able to handle toronto or ny for that matter either 7hrs in his last 3 starts is reason for concern ask yourself today are we capable of winning without another hoss in the stable i have a lot of doubts that could be put to sleep in acquiring a smoltz or schmidt for the run as bad as ny had been reeling we're a 1/2 game up and they will move on a stud they dont play for 2nd place or next year
  9. did the yankees also give willie mays a tryout and deem him not good enough like tom yawkey did??
  10. bad loss another good effort from our young lefty but the O has been dormant need a spark to pick things up maybe a brawl,maybe zito throws inside to pappi tonite and the benches clear theyve looked flat since the end of interleague play
  11. heres the curse in full detail we didnt have the pitching for 86 years to win it all and the family who owned the team for 60 years didnt like black ball players on their lilly white team very simple
  12. it makes no sense unless these guys they picked up are some leverage for a bigger deal at the end of the month i have no clue as to what theyre thinking about the nl central is as wide open as madonnas anus,everybody is capable except the cubs of winning this thing ha i wrote houston off long ago,theyre back in it now as well
  13. how would trading soriano make any team jump for joy?? the washington franchise doesnt draw s***,never did and i suspect they never will their best player is soriano maybe an argument can be made that vidro is better allaround how is dumpimg him going to increase an already lame attendence? this franchise has been dismantled,rebuilt then dismantled in every single year ive watched baseball,one of these years theyre actually going to have to go for it and try to win lest they move the dc franchise for the 3rd time in 45 years
  14. is kearns a big earner?? lopez i believe is a youngster,i see these guys all the time i find this cinci team very exciting to watch between the mashers like dunn and the speedsters like their leadoff guy(name escapes me) they were using lopez in the 2 spot and kearns i think hit 5th?? anyways the nats got better the reds younger majewski i saw in the bullpen,not too bad so far darryl thompson was a top 10 prospect,brendan harris will spot the aging royce clayton and the other guy is a pitcher bill bray who is still in A ball i believe?? i dont know what the f*** is going on here unless the reds wanted to dump money they improved their bullpen which can be described as sucky at best but lost some speed and pop in the process runs arent the reds problem their pitching is
  15. chan ho park didnt he take the rangers for almost 60M?? stop it he sucks cock by choice
  16. it goes to show you can have hursty and clemens and dennis boyd and al nipper but sometimes in the game of baseball shag crawford has the ball in the 8th inning with the game on the line you can have petey and schill and a lites out lowe and an untouchable foulke but occasionally its destined to come down to curtis leskanic with the ball in the 14th inning you gotta be prepared for 25 men to contribute if youre sincere in winning a world series unless youre playing against the astros where your 4 starters all go the distance
  17. its in advance of another,larger deal it seems on the surface i think the nats did better
  18. and another thing didnt shag crawford win 2 games in the 86 playoffs??
  19. inevitably your weakest link will have to hold the chain together its a fact of life anyone remember who shut down the sox with the bases loaded with 0 out for chicago last october anyone need a reminder who won game 4 of the 2004 alcs? even blind chickens catch worms now and then
  20. jealous of his money for sure...arent you? i'd love to have 8figures in the bank and theres very little i wouldnt do to get it but if i looked like him?? id catch without the mask and lool for an improvement it cant hurt
  21. over under?? do you mean what are the odds of that rat faced mother f***er landing a beautiful chick with the 34EEEs?? i'd say about as good as willie harris becoming the grand kleagle of the KKK or theo epstein becoming the head of aryan nation
  22. when in rome??
  23. is it a prison type of attraction or just a metrosexual thing??
  24. a healthy wells would be huge down the stretch an inning eater who would at least keep us competetive as opposed to the scatine we've thrown in the 5 spot since the lenny dinardo experiment i never really cared for wells but i do appreciate his efforts in trying to get back on the field this season
  25. wasnt posada's wife in the golden shower video with r kelly?
