hey, if people didn't take things when they were easy
the pirates wouldn’t be swinging when colome pitches… yet it didn’t stop them

watching some of these pitching collapses
is harder then sitting through an awkward Broccoli social interaction
you interact socially with your broccoli?
yes, that is awkward.

I don't know,
There are some pretty questionable holadeck episodes.

I disagree.
Any Counsellor Troi-centric episode always caused me deep, abiding pain.

I always hated the ones
about Geordi’s miserable love life. They were just painful.
"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"
that one with the holodeck-model he falls in love with and then meets the real deal?
i can’t even watch it
Well, at least with a loss tonight no one will have to pitch the ninth.
That’s one inning of work saved.

2 hours 13 minutes to go?
Does draft signing go by eastern time? Any word on Strasburg?
Deadline is midnight eastern time, yes.

From McCalvy's Twitter:
@dr_morel Nothing on Gennett yet. I know they want to sign him and are still talking. We’ll know shortly.
"The reports are that he is getting better. The definition of better is nebulous."
And an update!
RT @JonathanMayoB3 Brewers active on #mlbdraft front. Not only did they get Kentrail Davis and Brooks Hall, but 16th-rder Scooter Gennett

Walked Kendall huh?
I wonder if Karstens was afraid of what would happen if he struck Kendall out…

The problem with this game
is not enough HBPs.
Holy crap
The Nats offered $17 million to their top pick (allegedly)
"I will agree that the attitude [at BCB] is ridiculous and they have done so much to instigate animosity and then block us from responding. Real mature!"
Boras is evil.
But I’d hire him too if I were a ballplayer.

I dream of the day
when Boras retires
"my goodness"
by BrewHaHeather on Aug 17, 2009 9:02 PM CDT up reply actions
The Nats knew what they were getting into
when they drafted him. If they don’t pay the price, they look like idiots.
really?
paying his price drives up future bonuses and nobody’s a slam dunk.
if they don’t sign him, they get #1 and #2 next year, right? it’s not like one player is going to save them in the near-term anyway.
by Capt Science on Aug 17, 2009 9:11 PM CDT up reply actions
anyone know
if Bryce Harper is represented by Boras?
"my goodness"
by BrewHaHeather on Aug 17, 2009 9:03 PM CDT up reply actions
He's certainly good at what he does.
Maybe I should hire him and see if he can convinec mlb teams that I’m good at baseball

Why has Braun suddenly regressed in LF?
by Zorakathura on Aug 17, 2009 9:03 PM CDT via mobile reply actions
He's been replaced by his evil twin who has the emotion chip
It makes him more unstable.

Attanasio will have him written in when...
… the franchise is old, stale and starting to lose money.
He’ll also find a fat guy named Steve Fielder to play first base.

No one noticed Brauns been batting lefty for a month.

1st Round Contracts
if MLB is trying to keep 1st round contract money silent so that it isn’t used in negotiations, I wonder how well that actually works. Especially with the number of clients Boras has. The more money he makes on a #4 pick, the more money he can make on a #3 pick…

Well, if the Commissioner's Office is delaying deals with guys signing above slot
Then that’s an incentive for teams to stick to slot as much as possible. Otherwise the guy might lost weeks of his development time.

All we need here is 4 runs with 1 out.
Go get ’em boys!

I'm taking a heavy dose of sarcasm.
by Zorakathura on Aug 17, 2009 9:14 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions
remember when we could beat them?
those were the days.
