  1. I can't knock a man for getting served by Jordan.
  2. Not sure where to put this (as it's def not worthy of it's own thread) but I had no idea that Mark Hendrickson, the lefty starter/reliever for the Orioles was drafted in the same NBA draft as Kobe Bryant. He was the 2nd pick of the 2nd round to the Philadelphia 76ers and played 76ers, Kings, Cavaliers, and Nets as well as the Orioles, Blue Jays, Rays, Dodgers and Marlins.
  3. I don't think most people (other than CT folks) know anything about the Colchester/East Haddam area. Even my GPS doesn't know where I am half the time.
  4. The sad part is I got the previous T-Swizzle puns.
  5. Hahaha even VA is getting in on this. Everyone is invited to the give Jacko s*** party.
  6. Yeah, we might need our better relivers coming up so it's great to give them a day off...and still win the game without them.
  7. He has 30 K's vs. 8 BB's in 17 innings. Last year he had 51 K's and 20 BB's in 40 1/3 innings. Now compare that to 369 K's and 243 BB's in 416 2/3 innings when you factor in his starts.
  8. Good game guys. It was nice to see Miller get a scoreless 9th with a couple of strikeouts. We might have a bit of a reliever logjam coming up when Morales returns, however our bullpen has been taxed by some weak starts and by playing so many games without a day off. I imagine we'd switch back to 12 pitchers when we go to Philadelphia to have the extra bench player.
  9. It's nice to see insurance runs. Ortiz/Napoli/Drew with back to back to back walks after Ciriaco's 2 out single. Carp up with them still loaded.
  10. Honestly if it wasn't for Jacko appearing in our game threads unprovoked...I don't think the majority of us would be in the Yankees game threads unprovoked.
  11. Hmm, you are correct, I guess they must have collapsed towards the end because they were a lock to do it. I must have stopped following when they had a good record and missed the nose dive. They finished 79-83 last year and their last winning record was 96-66 in 1992. They made it to the NLCS 3 years in a row at that point losing to the Reds in 1990, and the Braves in 1991-1992.
  12. While his stats ever since we got him have been "meh" to "pretty bad" Miller's been decent enough to hold on to imo. Prior to this outing he had given up 6 ER in 15 1/3 innings, and 3 of those earned were in one 1/3 inning outing (in a game we lost by 8) and the other 3 runs were in outings in April. I don't think he'll ever be our best reliever, but he's done a decent job lowering walk totals and increasing strikeouts. (27:8 K/BB ratio in 15 1/3 innings coming into the game) One problem that may arise is having Breslow/Morales/Miller at one time. I'd do something with Aceves or Mortenson before Miller imo.
  13. The Pirates, while having been historically bad for the past decade or so, have actually been decent recently. They even had their first winning season in close to two decades I think.
  14. He has his ups and downs, but his main asset for us is his ability to go multiple innings (like Aceves/Morales) but other than that he's replaceable. That said I think he at least brought us a semi decent return for Scutaro. (In addition to saving about $6M)
  15. All luck aside that was a pretty good outing for Aceves, especially as a spot start for Buchholz. I'll take 6 innings 1 run from him (and just about every starter) anytime.
  16. That reminds me of South Park when the kids ask Mexicans to write "Essays" on a book so the Mexicans write their homies about the book they read.
  17. I guess the Price is Wright afterall. Bizznitch.
  18. YOU'RE NOT MY GUY PAL!!! inb4 Palodios responds...
  19. While I'm generally not a fan of T-Swizzle's appearance (or music), I remember seeing an article on Yahoo about her without makeup and she looked legit attractive in it. Def smashworthy imo.
  20. YOU'RE NOT MY FRIEND BUDDY!!!!!
  21. You can say that again. I think so far we got Pedroia, Naps, and one from them (Kratz) Plus a bunch of extra base hits from other members.
  22. I want to meet Taylor Swift and then not acknowledge her or cut her in line or something so she'll write a song about me. For real though when Kim Kardashian has the baby Taylor Swift should interrupt and be like "Kanye, I'm a let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best deliveries of all time"
  23. Now we know what teams facing us last year felt.
  24. That's how it's supposed to be done. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.
