  1. God knows what that was really all about. Let's just never have it happen again please, Clay.
  2. Cubs took a pair from Cards last night.
  3. See? He's maturing.
  4. We don't need a 5th starter until after the All-Star Break. Tonight Miley Wed Porcello Fri Buch Sat E-Rod Sun Miley All-Star Break
  5. Iglesias was also being paid only about $2 million a year by us-it was a total commitment of $10 or $12 million I think. With Rusney we're talking about a $72 million investment.
  6. Lester and Lackey put on a great show last night.
  7. No character comments from me. I'm just perplexed.
  8. In 3 days we can wish him a Happy 28th Birthday.
  9. Which could present a dilemma if our situation improves but only marginally, like if we're 1 game closer than we are right now.
  10. Beane is a very smart and successful GM. Last year must have hurt though. Who would have thought the A's would fold after acquiring Lester?
  11. That's true. My point is how things are set up to be wide open now. If the season ended today, Baltimore and Minnesota would play off for the second wild card. With .524 winning pcts., those two teams are on pace for only 85 wins.
  12. It's Bud Selig's wet dream come true. With parity and two wild cards in each league, even a 39-45 team, and most importantly their paying fans, can still believe they have a shot.
  13. Nice win indeed.
  14. Do you see this as a possibility at the trade deadline this year?
  15. And who exactly do you think we'll have to give up?
  16. It's not a couple of months - it's 2.33 years of control.
  17. Let's go back to the debate about the Porcello extension. Many of us, myself included, argued that 20 million a year was reasonable, in light of the ever spiraling cost of good starting pitching. Now we have Buchholz on a deal that is absolute peanuts compared to the Porcello extension. And, with two team options, it provides a lot of incentive to the player to keep producing. It was a great piece of work by Theo. Why would we be in such a hurry to hand such a hugely favorable deal, in an area of desperate need, off to someone else instead of using it ourselves?
  18. David Ortiz is your first baseman today, folks.
  19. All depends what you call happiness, I guess. I'm sure their young fans are happy and the older ones like sniffing the playoffs for a change. In the big picture those are two of the most frustrated franchises in sports.
  20. He could also be healthy as a horse the next few years. Nobody knows. Buchholz's past injuries have been weird, but not the kind that suggest major issues with his arm. I think what it is is that he's a flake and people don't trust him.
  21. It's already ugly. This will help make it stay ugly next year.
  22. Yeah, he's been hot and cold, I know. But he's a talent and he's not that old. If you want to put together a list of the pitchers who have been consistent aces for a long time, it's a pretty short list, and an extremely expensive one.
