Great value pick at 19. Has chance to be a 2 or 3 starter.

when's the first episode of "Ollie Perez: Road to Redemption" airing?

A's 3B Scott Sizemore is out for the season with a torn ACL.
I thought it was going straight to IMAX?
His wife is melting down on twitter supposedly
If his lips are moving- He's lying.
My favorite: 'The Madoff scandal will have no effect on how we run the team'.
How many more years can he run a franchise swimming in debt?
Huh, seems fine.

Cardinals sign Molina. 5 years, $75 million.
You're going to be waiting a while, unfortunately.
Alfred Molina?

You think Montero will be even close to Molina is as a defensive catcher, your expectations are insane.

see, you're missing out on ratings gold-no, platinum!
why? did someone's ass show up on a hard drive somewhere?
I'm talking about Miguel Montero fyi, who offensively beats Yadi, and defensively comes close (he actually had the highest caught stealing %, at 40%, and the highest Total Zone Runs saved). He's going to demand a monster contract because of this.

Not as bad as it sounds. Achilles injuries usually never heal "properly."

Jim Thome signing has been criminally underrated. They upgraded at 1B for nothing at all. Best move Amaro has ever made.
Thome in the field...

How many other companies does he own that can became minority shareholders in the Mets?
Sure thing, Fred. You just let All-Star SS's walk, without an offer, for shits and giggles.

Does it matter? He's replacing Ryan Howard.
I would consider Howard a Gold Glover over Thome at this point in his career.

Local media reporting that the Molina deal isn't a flat 5/75. They are reworking the last year of this curent deal so this year he'll get a bump in pay (he's making $7 mil this season), and it'll be an additional 5 years, at an AAV of $10-12 mil a year.
Its crazy, but I thought for sure he would end up in Anaheim next year too.

That's cool that the Cards signed Yadi the same day the Royals signed the next Yadi.
And
Agreed, but Scott Boras probably won't let it happen :/

He was a better hitter than Howard was last season.

Yadi is my favorite Cardinal but that's a lot of money going to an aging catcher with a lot of innings in those knees. Yikes.

How's the second part any different from Ryan Howard?
That's something alright.
He's not Brian McCann, who is the only catcher in baseball who deserves that kind of money.
(I would have said Mauer as well before last year, if he bounces back he's deserve more.)
Just got finished reading a few articles on Tim Beckam from this past year. Seems he's slowly turning his minor league career around. Hopefully he'll have a shot at getting called up in the next two years.
Also as someone who loathes everyone in the central minus Kansas City - Royals could potentially contend for the division if their pitching wasn't so god awful.

good point.
What? Leave me out of this pony perv party, freaks.
Guys, I am back! I got pretty sick there for a while with the flu, and then had tons of work to catch up on, but I think I'm back to good. Of course, as I type it, I will develop 6 cancers and die by Friday, but we'll see.
Anyway, here's a trivia question:
What pre-1900 Hall of Famer once clubbed four home runs in a game?
A) Roger Connor
B) Ed Delahanty
C) Sam Thompson
D) Dan Brouthers
For the record, I am going to give everyone a point on the question I never posted an answer to, and I have since lost that paper (and I can't remember what the question was) so here's the top three so far:
1) Cajole - 7
1) Sanjuro - 7
2) Windu - 5
2) Eznark - 5
3) RBH - 4

Brett Myers is the new closer for the Houston Astros. His vesting option was changed due to the change in role. His owed 11 million this year and if his option doesn't vest next year, the Astros will have a 3 million buyout option. Myers has the experience closing, but this hurts his trade value. Would have been a nice pickup at the deadline to round out a rotation for a playoff push
