I like it for panorama purposes

I don’t like it when pitches are thrown. It’s like the behind-the-goal camera during hockey games.

so should we hope wilkerson goes on DL so he gets called up?

Yes.

He started before. He wasn’t great, but for a while there he was capable.

Don't question Squinty.

When he’s not napping he is constantly planning ways to deceive the enemy. Willie is a trick to make the opposing team complacent.

Don’t you love it when a plan comes together?

Yeah. It was the evolution of the commerical.

Eventually, rather than simply being “not pretentious” it turns out they were actually stupid. I consider that a progression in logic rather than simply 2 separate points.

but I haven’t looked at the numbers. Can someone shed some light onto this?

What sucks

is that Roy Corco will get blamed in the end for that inning even though he was fine.

Ehhh

We had that run coming, what with Washburn’s evasive maneuvers earlier.

Here's a question

Bedard is back Saturday. Who goes away?

by Gomez on Apr 24, 2008 8:56 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

it should be

Morrow going to AAA to pitch as a starter (especially since White left Tacoma’s game with an injury)..... Lowe and Corcoran can handle Morrow’s duties.

But… it’ll probably be Corcoran.

Midnight Baseball - No Lights - Only in Alaska!

by MfaninAlaska on Apr 24, 2008 8:59 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I've long since given up hope that Morrow will ever be a starter.

I’m hoping he can turn into a dominating closer or setup guy.

I'd just like to return quickly to say

The 1st base umpire should be declared legally blind.

Also, Richie Sexson has gone back to sucking again.

I think I jumped on the Sexson bandwagon too soon.
