Wow, Jeff linking to a new thread on the same day that Wash gets lit up?
The more things change, the more they stay the same
Burke is the shit.
If only he and kenji could both catch, and Washburn could sit his ass down.
...and now I'm here
Hell, let Burke pitch and hit for himself
that way we can get rid of Turbo and Wash in one move

I support this.
And, as the home team, I opt to change that rule at least for all home games.
...and now I'm here
We actually don't even need to be the home team to do this
it’s already legal under the rules of baseball
by seattlebruin on May 21, 2008 5:27 PM PDT up reply actions
Oh.
Well this is a good point. Shut up.
Okay, how about – as the home team, I opt to change the rules so that we win every game, regardless of the score.
...and now I'm here

Maybe we don't even need a pitcher.
Ichiro can pitch from the outfield. Burke will back Kenji up.

I haven't watched MLB.tv in about five days, so it looks like I'm missing something.

Damnit Beltre is so unclutch.
He only got a 1 RBI single. He’s a bust.
That would require an act of God,
or a huge pile of hot dogs at third base.
I like midgets more than I should.
I don't want Vidro to succeed. But I still have hope in this game for some reason
so conflicted. Just take a walk, Jose
The bad news: we leave the bases loaded
The good news: Vidro fails.
Vidro hit the ball to the outfield.
That’s a win for him.
Send him to Tacoma for seasoning.

NISSAN MAKES GOOD TRUCKS!
Yes color guy, the Tigers need to watch more video on RRS
he is so completely the opposite of Washburn.
Raul's certainly no problem offensively
It’s just his defense that’s offensive…

you won't believe me, but...

Fun Washburn Fact
“In 2002 he celebrated the first anniversary of the 9/11 attacks by allegedly hooking up with a 16-year old girl who worked at the concession stand at Angel Stadium. Washburn was investigated by local authorities in Los Angeles for this incident, which his wife did not enjoy.”

I mean I hate amateur guitar players who you find every ten feet on a college campus.
Did you ever see that Family Guy bit about "what douche bags did to the guitar?"
It is spot on and exactly what you are describing.

Try making a thread for the honkiest team in baseball.
I think Detroit is the non-honkiest team in baseball.
This guy?
Where he’s from, you can’t control him. You might get a guy to do it that way for a while because he wants to benefit, but in the end, he is going to go back to being who he is. And that’s a person that you’re going to talk to with respect, you’re going to talk to like a man.

Seattle gets too much shit for getting an average of 32" of rain a year.

So how does Bavasi explain his way out of this?
I mean to his bosses. It was clear with every action he took this offseason that his plan was to upgrade the pitching - and pitching only - and we’d have a contender. He fully succeeded in doing what he said he wanted to do, and it’s failing miserably.
I know every year people swear he’s going to get fired, but this has to be the year, right? For the past few years I’ve wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, but if you put all your chips on red and bust, what do you do?
I’m just trying to predict what the excuse will be, and nothing makes sense. Bedard and Putz being hurt? That can’t be enough.
Bedard gave him a two-year window
I imagine Bavasi will mention that pretty often.
by Jeff Sullivan on May 21, 2008 6:53 PM PDT up reply actions
Oh, that's what he looks like? I thought he was older.
Anyway, for all the shit he gets, he has put the Reds in pretty solid position, I think. Shore up the OF defense and a few other parts and they can contend in the NL Central.
I have no idea how much of their farm system can be attributed to him, but looking at Votto, Bruce, Cueto, Bailey . . . it looks promising. I wouldn’t have traded Hamilton, though.
Let me clarify
I don’t want Krivsky to be the new GM. He has no idea how to evaluate players.
Ergo, he’ll be first in line for the job.
This team could be re-tooled in time for next year
if someone competant is rehired.
