Not that anyone here cares

but James McDonald has some awful control, 41 strikes, 34 balls so far.

You know what? Fuck you Sports Gods, fuck you.

I don't know

but he only has 1 walk so far and 2 Ks 4 hits allowed and 1 hit batter. And he’s pitching a shut out.

You know what? Fuck you Sports Gods, fuck you.

He was well above average for a CFer

I don’t get why you’d want to give up on a 26 year old player because he’s had one bad week.

I am talking about him as purely a hitter. I said nothing about his defense or his

overall value. I also did not say anything about getting rid of him. I just said he’s not a good hitter.

by Rudy4three on Apr 19, 2009 2:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

JI was saying he was a well above average hitter for a center fielder.

Not that he was well above average value wise for a center fielder. Though with his defense, he undoubtedly was.

Well at least the only 2 teams that we're going to have to compete with lost

But the Angels are going to be significantly better when their SP is more intact, so this isn’t really the time to be glad to hold a 2.5 game lead, this is our chance to build a decent lead in the division. We’re kinda fucking that up.

While our offense would still probably struggle.

Having Clement and Balentien in the back end of the order would at least give this team some potential to actually get extra base hits. Of course you have to weigh the defense vs offense thing when talking Chavez vs Wlad.

However, the way Johnson and Burke have looked defensively, Im not so sure how much of a defensive downgrade Clement could possibly be.

by Rudy4three on Apr 19, 2009 5:27 PM PDT reply actions  

Apparently, Carlos Silva isn't going to regress to the mean.

Maybe he ate it last year or something.

I don’t know what’s more frustrating, watching him pitch or realizing it’s a tossup between him, Beluga Tits and Jakubauskas as to who’s the second-best right-handed starting pitcher in the organization, thanks to Morrow closing.

by eponymous_coward on Apr 19, 2009 5:40 PM PDT reply actions  

When Clement comes up he sould be like:

“I heard you guys need a bailout”

Cedeno hit a HR today hopefully that influences the team to give him more starts at SS…

So 2nd time we lost 2 in a row maybe we’re gonna hit another 6 game winning streak or something.

You got slurved bitch.
