That is actually a pretty good story. Vizquel definitely is a good guy. Better he gets 13 after Omar and not directly after Edgardo.

Perfect to give #13 to the last guy off the bench.

Fred Lewis can stand under my umbrella.

Albert Pujols wants to be a Giant?

That’s just a measurement in inches.

If anyone missed Henry Schulman’s blog entry refuting the Boras/Baer meeting, there was this gem of a comment:

F you Schulman. Let the fans have their hopes. A-hole.

Jeez, this is the third time that I have heard the rumor that Boras was flying to the bay for dinner with the Giants. First at fanfest someone on KNBR said he would be there THAT night, and now I have seen it written on here twice. Where the hell is everyone getting this crap?

I wish the Rays would just sign Manny already and put us all out of our misery.

Sadly, he also inherited his hitting abilities.

I wish that were true, friend

I'm spent, just can't rosterbate anymore.

Bocock fact!:

If he hit for 700 PAs in a season, his bat would be worth -69 runs, that’s nearly -7 wins. The worst hitter in baseball last season was in the -20 range. Of course, he’d never get 700 PAs but it’s pretty cool to think about. Well, that is unless you’re Brian Bocock.

The worst hitter in baseball last season was in the -20 range.

I assume you mean -20 runs? -20 wins would be a whole lot of fail. Who was this unfortunate fellow?

by neurofarm on Feb 17, 2009 12:02 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, -20 runs. It was Jeff Francouer. He hit: .239/.294/.359 and was -22.8 runs below average by hitting.

But he’s durable!

I love Poz
Atlanta Braves: We can show you numerous charts that prove his suckiness but basically you can trust us on this. He sucks.

FP: Yeah? Well, if he sucks so much, how come he has played 86 more games than any other Braves player since July 7, 2005?

Arbitrator: Excellent question.

Atlanta Braves: It’s mostly because we kind of suck too.

Arbitrator: Interesting.

I read this somewhere recently, but can’t remember where the hell it was.
