PrintReversing our mojo worked! We're so sexy. Marvel at our ability to predict further problems with Milton Bradley in this week's podcast. Also, we talk about Casey Kotchman, Doug Fister and Brandon League. Also, other stuff probably; I already forgot.

What's funny is that I found myself agreeing with you about Jose Lopez
and I looked it up and saw Jose Lopez has a 26% LD rate. I think I remember 1 of these. When did these line drives happen?

Hearing you talk about the depth of our back of rotation pitchers makes me think that if Fister or Vargas continues having nice stat lines
we could think about trading one of them for something shiny a la Jarrod Washburn
In other news, MOVE OVER ROYALS...there's a new Stupidest Team In Baseball.
The Cubs have just announced that they’re moving Carlos Zambrano to the bullpen once Ted Lilly comes off the DL…So that Carlos Silva can remain in the rotation.
Ponder that for a moment.
Jigsaw falling into place
So now you've ruined your relationship with your very good young pitcher. What the hell do you do when Silva blows up?
Wow, I used to think Lou was a good manager.
Everything is Rob Johnson's fault.

Does anyone else notice that Brandon League holds the ball in a forkball grip-
When receiving the signs from the plate? I watched him do this between almost every pitch in a recent game. So, it’s not like he’s not at least thinking about his fork.
"We're pilgrims in an unholy land..."
Many pitchers bring the ball into the mitt in their offspeed grip.
The reason behind it is that hitters found it easier to see the muscle twitch when a guy went from a fastball grip to an offspeed grip in their mitt. Apparently it is harder to see when they go the other way when their hand is in the mitt. The first pitcher I remember talking about it was Roger Clemens in the late 80’s. He always went to his mitt with a forkball grip.
I always speak first.
Our voices sound nothing alike.
I'm a new listener
Good stuff. But I don’t see the whole Fister/Snell thing.

I can sort of see it if I close my eyes.
Then they look identical.
...and now I'm here
Jeff usually talks faster
Matthew is a bit of a stammerer.
At least that’s how I can tell.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
Matthew not being able to pronounce Toews or McLouth is how I tell.
Thankfully they’re mentioned every podcast.

The trick I use to tell them apart is that they sound nothing alike.

Awesome stuff
I’m still rooting for Morrow, and really, all of those players who were the only bright spots of the down years (Choo, Jones, etc). I wonder if the reason people are so enamored with him is because they had to become attached to something. Also, that Yankee game doesn’t hurt.
Bradley has a lazy eye.
I’m just wondering if Bradley has some kind of depth perception issues with his eyesight. I know his left eye is lazy often times, kind of like Edgar had. In the field it seems like he doesn’t have a great idea of where the ball is until it gets close. And sometimes he sprints out of the box on shallow fly balls, like he thinks it’s going to drop in but it’s obvious it will not. People say he sprints out of frustration, but I think he could possibly have vision problems and doesn’t get a good idea where the ball is going to land. I’m not sure, but has anyone noticed this? Does he have any history?

After listening
I had to look up Bean Stringfellow. His real first name is Thornton. Thornton “Bean” Stringfellow. Here is the homepage of the agency, if anyone cares http://proformancesport.com/inside.html
My first thought was Stringfellow Hawk from Airwolf.
My second thought was that someone is going to make fun of me for watching a show shot well before I was born.
