dammit

brb. I have to explain to someone why Beltre is good.

He's someone I have to spend a lot of time with as it is

There’s almost so much “I don’t understand why you guys signed Beltre. He’s untradeable.” that one can stand.

Okay, Vidro

Grab a bat and kill this rally!

by Paytheline on Jun 17, 2008 8:14 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

He should shave the handle of his bat down really thin

So each time he swings and makes contact it breaks…that is the only value he brings. The potential for taking out other players (ours included)

He’s throwing really easy up there.

Let's hope Felix is more eager to conclude a long-term deal with an FO headed by someone other than Bavasi.

Jesus Christ is Felix dealing today. Best I’ve seen in him damn near forever. OH NOES THE CONSECUTIVE STRIKEOUT BINGE WAS BROKEN UP BY AN EASY GROUNDBALL!

Sign this kid long-term, for fuck’s sake.

I've never heard of a fast change.

I mean, a 90mph change is faster then Washburn’s fastball. There’s something cosmically wrong with a “fast change”.

by The Typical Idiot Fan on Jun 17, 2008 8:23 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Well yeah

I suppose relative to Moyer’s changeup, Felix’s changeup is a “fast changeup”... but

You’re just fucking with me, aren’t you?

What scares me

Is that Felix was on this caliber of roll a month or two ago, and it ended up being a 4-1 loss on a big 8th inning for the opposition.

Coach/Butthol '09: We shall overcome.

by qrsouther on Jun 17, 2008 8:23 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Well this is actually a decent point, but we already have more run support now than we did then

Plus, it’s a lot clearer how to deploy the bullpen. No Putz or Potatoes, and Morrow as your fireman in a pinch.

by esoteric on Jun 17, 2008 8:26 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

It was all Felix ER

But he left before he could give up the runs themselves. I think Green blew it all, but got no ER due to the men he inherited on base.

Or personally knew him and disliked him

I have a feeling that’s a decidedly smaller number.

By all accounts he was a really neat person

Just shitty at his job, so I’m sure hardly anyone thought badly of him as a person.

I would think so

Hence

Is that the one co-starring Jason Bateman?

Anything with him gets some credit from me. Guy turned me into a huge fan with Arrested Development.

I also STRONGLY recommend that any fans of Tobias (David Cross) go get their hands on the DVDs of Mr. Show. I prefer the (short) 2nd season the most, but a lot of people like the 3rd or the 4th even more. Either way, check it out, it’s the American Monty Python: hit and miss, but when it hits, look the fuck out.

Such as Cairo.

Have a Sox scout staying in my hotel tonight

I asked him what was up since the draft was over, said he was just doing his rounds on the high schoolers. He promised me a hat.

I’m torn. I may have to burn it.

It’s Sox fans circa 2005-present that suck.
