  1. Inquire about why they don't wish for you to have a Happy New Year.
  2. As a side note because I can't resist, the Phillies had a third baseman named Freese as well. After a season in which Freese hit 23 HRs (at the age of 25), the Phils shipped him to the White Sox for an unproven, toolsy outfielder. Fans were outraged. Freese had one more good season in him, while Johnny Callison is on the Phillies' Wall of Fame.
  3. The Cardinals traded Jim Edmonds to the San Diego Padres for 3B David Freese. For the Cardinals it probably gives Colby Rasmus a clear shot at the CF job in St. Louis.
  4. I don't think the grappling concerns me as much as how exactly you fight on the ground, scale the ropes, that kind of thing. One more reason this game is great, you can bring back one-night UFC style tournaments.
  5. There aren't sufficient funds to cover the check you cashed. You're then obliged to refund the money to your bank.
  6. I never studied. If I could hazard a guess, the people in college without good study habits are probably VERY smart naturally to the point where they absorb given information quickly. Either that or trying to learn while tired is counter-productive.
  7. Grander scale. There are people who can't seem to miss the slightest thing WWE didn't miss in deleting Benoit off their website.
  8. Not to discount Gonzales, but be extremely wary evaluating players in Lancaster. To say that place is a hitters' haven is putting things mildly.
  9. Bought the game. Still iffy on the controls, the manual gives you buttons but doesn't really clue you in on the general strategy of things. Still, match selections are badass. Tournaments and Round-robins? Awesome. Is there a good site for CAWs?
  10. Most prospect lists put Gonzales in the top 25.
  11. Three trades. MLB.com says Jose Valverde to the Astros for Chris Burke and Chad Qualls. Total haul for Haren is Smith, Gonzales, Anderson, Dana Eveland, Aaron Cunningham and Chris Carter.
  12. Ok, now I voted for it, instead of merely voicing my approval.
  13. http://files.mlb.com/mitchrpt.pdf Page 28.
  14. Two D'backs trade today. Alberto Callaspo to the Royals for Billy Buckner. Six prospects, including Carlos Gonzalez, Brett Anderson and Greg Smith to the Athletics for Danny Haren and Connor Robertson
  15. There's some love for Caray, I voted for it. I still don't get the appeal of Gundy. It doesn't count as a real tirade until you throw something.
  16. Federal authorities gave a couple of the interviewees lighter sentence recommendations for supplying Mitchell with information. It's in the report.
  17. At least they get paid for it. There are people on the net who notice every unedited mention of "WWF" or "Benoit." What's their excuse?
  18. Chip Carey gets the nod for me. "Here come the Yankees" indeed. But Czech, no Kenny Williams? It's a late entry but it's certainly a strong contender.
  19. The true purpose of the report is to put pressure on the Players' Union to accept a harsher drug policy.
  20. Jeter lost this year, so the stranglehold is broken.
  21. Why? There's no obvious front-runner and if he plays a full year, he's the top choice.
  22. One year deal for Eckstein, that's really not bad at all.
  23. Hey! Someone catches on!
  24. You know, what is this nonsense that Eckstein sucks while I am thinking about it. Yes, he is overrated for his scrappiness. But you have a shortstop with OBPs of .363, .350 and .356 the last three seasons. Miguel Tejada's OBP over the same span is five points higher, and he just got traded for five players. http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/shareit/8wtm Ignoring power? It's really unnecessary for a leadoff hitter.
