sakari lindhen Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Speaking of Miggy, it was big of him to volounteer to go to third, drop some weight, and be a reasonable (just slightly below average) third baseman...real class...

Geoff Grace Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 For the sake of a little housekeeping, here's a quote of a post that Dave Ferris made yesterday in last season's thread: .... was totally baffled up at the plate all through the LA series and then against Boston. Ditto for Freese for the entire post season. I have a feeling they might try to deal him off in the winter.. Did I call that or what ?! http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article/stl/st-louis-cardinals-acquire-peter-bourjos-from-los-angeles-angels-for-david-freese?ymd=20131122&content_id=64140386&vkey=news_stl And it's not even "winter" yet. I wish he didn't have to go. He will always be etched in Cardinal yore for the 2011 WS game 6 & 7 heroics. Down to our last strike. Wow that was really something ! I don't follow the Angels that much...except to see Albert stiff..lol...but Bourjos seems to be highly regarded. I wish we could've shored up our SS position better but I understand Mozeliak's reluctance to part with any of those young pitchers. They're not talking about it but maybe Furcal can make a comeback. That would be cool to see. As it stands right now though, they plan on moving Carp to 3rd and giving the kid Kolton Wong a shot at 2nd. Looks like Beltran's not coming back..

Steve Force Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Well, FWIW my two wishes for the Detroit Tigers became true: 1. Jim Leyland retire (but stay with the organization!) 2.

Adan Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The only thing that makes Ellsbury worth that kind of money is that he might have some upside, since he hit 30 homers a couple years ago. He might be one of these rare speed-and-defense guys who matures into a power-defense-and-still-some-speed guys. If not, then he's way overpaid by a team that currently holds the worst contract in history (A-Rod). Once again, the A's are making sneaky moves that could later look brilliant. They got 2 top shelf relieves without giving up anything. They got Craig Gentry, who has been hidden in a drawer in Texas but should be the full time leadoff hitter somewhere. And then there's Kazmir, which is a gamble much like Colon was a gamble. Gigging: Crumar Mojo 61, Hammond SKPro Home: Vintage Vibe 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doerfler Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Sad day for Dodgers and Athletics fans: Former pitcher Bob Welch dies at 57 Best, Geoff sad and scary. 57 is too young taken from MLB.com "A subsequent release from the Dodgers, Welch's first employer, stated the cause of death was a heart attack. There had been no indication of heart weakness or trouble. Welch's death was quite unexpected." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobadohshe Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Our world down here in San Diego has been turned upside down by the untimely passing of Mr. Padre Tony Gwynn this AM from cancer. Tony almost hit .400 in the strike shortened season of '94, and he hit over .300 in 19 consecutive seasons. He hit .324 at the age of 41 in 2001. He did this all while wearing the same #19 for the same team, our San Diego Padres. San Diego and possibly all of MLB will never see the likes of someone like him again.

Joe P Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I just calculated Tony Gwynn could have gone 0 for his last 1182 and STILL had a career 300 average! One of the greats, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffinator Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I actually have reason to hope for 2015. Cespedes has the potential to pound the Monster all day and night, after exiting the pitcher's park that was the Oakland Coliseum. Adding him to Jackie Bradley Jr gives us easily the best defensive OF in the majors right now. The lineup is a big pile of question marks - can Middlebrooks find the form that motivated them to trade Youk last year? With X-man moving back to short, does he relocate his confidence at the plate? Will Holt prove to be a legit leadoff man long-term? Can Pedroia figure out how to hit a fastball again? If the answer to even half those questions is "Yes", then run production shouldn't be an issue next year. A bunch of loud, obnoxious music I USED to make with friends.

Geoff Grace Posted August 1, 2014 Author Share Posted August 1, 2014 Ben Cherington has already demonstrated his ability to successfully rebuild the Red Sox, so I can see why you'd have hope for next year. The potential is certainly there. Best, Geoff My Blue Someday appears on Apple Music | Spotify | YouTube | Amazon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Grace Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 ESPN now has the recap up: Royals eliminate A's on Salvador Perez's walk-off single in 12th I thought when the A's got Jon Lester that they'd go deep into the playoffs; and of course, the Royals hadn't even made it to the postseason in 29 years. But they made it this year and advanced tonight in a hard-fought game. Well done.
