Have you seen everything up and including Season 5 already?

If so, then you’re caught up.

It’s not bad at all. I think you’ll enjoy it.

Oh god please no. Reid Brignac would be sweet.

But as I said, I doubt the Rays would be willing to give up a chip that sweet.

I'm nearly certain it isn't.

First of all, I doubt Raul really has been snagged on a waiver claim by the Rays. Even if so, I doubt the Rays can give us enough to justify letting the two draft picks go. Raul is Type A for sure.

Any team.

Think about it, at worst they claim him and the Ms say fine, take him. You owe him a little over a mil and in the end you get two comp picks for it. You don’t even have to play him and that’s a trade ($$ for picks) you make every time.

by Matthew on Aug 13, 2008 8:33 PM PDT up reply actions  

I know that any team can claim him

But if you look at the grand scheme of things, only a handful of teams would be smart to even attempt to. The Sox for obvious reasons as that’s what they did with Giles, Yankees would because they think they’re still in it and have been decimated by injuries, same story for the Rays if he got that far

by Fuzz on Aug 13, 2008 8:35 PM PDT up reply actions  

Ok then

If you’re a bad team, why would you just ease the suffering by adding a player who might hit only 5th or 6th as mentioned before. yes it would be a dick move for somebody else to claim him because they have nothing to lose, but if everything was logical and teams were smart, the only people who would go and claim him would be contenders who need that extra little bit to get to the playoffs

Exactly. Fuck 'em all.

I bought my (then 3 month old) son a Mariner shirt for opening day. I sat him on my lap and we watched that great, great day.

I was so excited to get to at least somewhat share my love for baseball with my son. Now I just want him to become a Brewers fan or something.

I was raised a Brewers fan, but Selig has made me stop.

My grandfather used to manage/catch for a bush league team in Fruitland, Idaho way back when. Harmon Killebrew played on his team when he was a teenager, then went on to greatness. Selig… my scorn is too great.

That Killebrew story is awesome.

I wish I could go back in time and see the greats from the 40’s, 50’s & 60’s play in order to compare them to present day stars.

Please note that I did not say 70’s. Fuck the 70’s. Too much Joe Morgan.

Ha ha Joe! Too much Yankme's in the 70's.

He gave me a ball signed by Harmon, and Satchel Paige who came through town on a barnstorming tour. He said you couldn’t see the ball after Satchel threw it, you just heard a ziiiiip, and then your hand went numb. About 20 other sigs. from players on the team, but only local farm kids.

by dpseadv on Aug 13, 2008 9:01 PM PDT up reply actions  

Satchel Paige

Is very high on the list of guys I would have loved to see play. There are great stories about that guy. The only signed objects I have that are near and dear to me are a Johnny Bench jersey and a Mariners helmet signed by the entire 1993 team.

Fuckin' Richie Sexson man!

Wow! Talk about memorabilia! Johnny Bench is one of my favorites.

I took that baseball to a second grade show and tell. My teacher put it in a drawer in his desk for safe keeping. And later told me it had been stolen. I still think about going back and kicking his ass, but he’s about 80 now. Hopefully with lung cancer and hemorrhoids.

I'm beyond humor at this point. Really.

Might as well bring them up, I don’t even know if Fields has signed yet, but what the hell, let them see the life they could have if they make it. Then again, maybe keeping them as far away from this team as possible is a better idea.

For a Scottish Ale, Grant's was all hops, but finished pretty light.

Best finish I’ve ever tasted off an ale, not so much the bitter that follows the hop flavor. Closest I’ve come to finding a close approximation are the IPA’s.

It was unique, but maybe I'm biased since it was my first micro brew.

Back in ‘92 everybody (underage) in Yakima was drinking Keystone Light, $3.69 a 12 pack. People would bum beers like crazy, so I started drinking Grant’s, like the 3rd micro brew in the state, located right there in town. Everybody hated it, I acquired a taste for microbrews… I could seriously padded a 401k with the money…
