That's just wrong.
The Milk House just does not sound like a place for sports.
What it does sound like, I won’t say, since I’m posting from work.
All-Father Watch: 1.32 ERA, 5 saves, 0.95 WHIP, 26 Ks in 27 1/3 IP
there's no chance we pick before 11:30 is there?
crap. I have a meeting then.
Still defending Rich Aurilia, and the Niners' classic unis
We feel good about our first four picks on the last Mock Draft: Beckham, then Pedro Alvarez to the Pirates, Eric Hosmer to the Royals and Brian Matusz to the Orioles.The problem with the mock draft is the Giants. They could go Justin Smoak, but BA’s Matt Blood reports from Orlando that he’s getting Buster Posey vibes at five. That would shake up our projected second half of the top 10 to look like this:
I thought it was 109?

I’m trying to think of a bawdy “Milk House” joke…

Oh please oh please let it hopeful, enjoyable and full of deliverable upside.

I’m working, and already not really supposed to be doing stuff like reading McC on my work connection.
Fortunately, I found the problem – apparently, my almost-2-year-old son managed to unplug the cable box’s connection to the tv. Talented boy!
He senses a G. Beckham pick and is trying to spare you some pain. ;)

Catcher position
Do the Giants see Pablo Sandoval as a Major Leaguer at some position other than Catcher? Or are they simply thinking that depth at C is hugely important?
Pablo
Is making great strides defensively this year … but it would be foolish to presume that he’s our answer at this point considering that he’s only had a real breakout type season this year.

I don't want Posey
1. The Milk House is a completely retarded name for anything. Except maybe my firstborn.
2. I hate ESPN2HD. With all the crap they have on the screen, there’s actual video on maybe 33% of my tv.

No. been busy.
I detest Beck. It might help if he did not logical contradict himself every other paragraph.
Stein himself is interesting though. Former Nixon aid. Real bright. I Don’t always agree with him but ussaly worth listening to in my book.

OMG
what sort of BS is that. We should be on the 3rd pick already
by positiveuphemism on Jun 5, 2008 11:12 AM PDT reply actions
I think the teams are actually required to wait until the 5 minutes is up to announce their picks.
So they’ll be having fake conversations while they wait, likely about the merits of Bea Arthur and Hot Pockets.
It's my blarg! Quick Pitch
mmm, pizza
Delicious with a nice tall glass of MILK at the MILK HOUSE.

I'm glad the Rays are putting off their pick
..So we have time to take a moment to watch fake cars driving in a fake circle
ESPN2 should have a split screen showing the Chapelle episode with the racial draft, the one where the Chinese draft the Wu-Tang Clan. “Konnitchi-wa, mothafuckas!”
Eagerly awaiting Crazy Crab Bobblehead Night on 7/18.

Would've been funny if he'd mistakenly called
Gordon Beckham.
Bengie: Like an Aurilia kidney stone, slow-moving and tough to get out.
why did we have to wait five minutes for beckham’s name to be announced? dumb.
and why did karl just announce that he’s african american?
Because the other Beckham is a cracker
by GiantsFanInExile on Jun 5, 2008 11:18 AM PDT up reply actions
Because Milton Bradley thinks there aren’t enough African-Americans in baseball and whines about it too much.

BA's John Manuel
Bud Selig makes it official with his best John McCain impersonation, looking at the wrong teleprompter to read that Tim Beckham is the No. 1 overall pick. Again, we don’t think there will be much drama until after the fourth overall pick.
Jesse English: He is BAAAAAACCCCCKKKK!
Hmmm, someone call the A/V department
Bengie: Like an Aurilia kidney stone, slow-moving and tough to get out.
No Alvarez please.
No Alvarez please. Give me 5 more minutes of pretty thoughts.

yes, other teams take other beckhams

they were sayin the pirates are gonna sign alvarez to a major league contract.. how does that work? is he immediately put on the 40 man? or are they just saying hes gonna make a lot of money
Would we rather have Smoak or Hosmer though?
Ive read recently that Sabes is high on Hosmer and is athletica enough to make a move tothe outfield.
Cain is Able ...
smoak
hosmer is a HS player. ya never know…he could go to college and there is a big diff between a HS player and a college player.

KC hosmer
..and why does everyone hate on Posey? The only problem with him is the bonus demand.
I’m guessing it’s the homer, as in he might not haz none. (Well, 10-15, not 30.)
by GiantsFanInExile on Jun 5, 2008 11:29 AM PDT up reply actions
..and plays 1B
I love his swing, but he plays 1B. C works better.

It’s going to be between G. Beckham, Smoak, and Posey for the Giants. I think the Orioles take Matusz

Posey for us?
Hmm, I’d probably rather have Smoak, but I could live with Posey
Go Durham, Roberts, Aurilia, Vizquel, Winn, Lowry! The better you do, the quicker we can trade you!
don't mess with me
I’m still coming to terms with missing Heyward last year.
I still believe
Obama wins nomination.
Giants draft Smoak.
YES WE CAN

I do like the Buster Posey Madison Bumgarner name combo tho.
