Hmmm, clearly it's a questionable decision to build the stadium on two giant boxes labelled 'fragile'.

oh

Juan Pierre easily.

Burnett has been on an amazing run, which is twice as good for me since I have him on my fantasy team.

Hey lets make a thread about every reliever with the potential to close who's going to be a free agent any time soon.

He does look feminine, but "The Crow" is a cool nickname for him.

1. Clemens . . . 2. Carpenter 3. Martinez

This could ruin my 2 fantasy teams.

we don't need the wild card we need the division 843861[/snapback] We need to make the playoffs.

considering only what he said on New York radio today... ill pass. 833128[/snapback] agreed

The problem the offense is having is the lack of power. We are right in the bottom of the league when it comes to homeruns. Our "clutch" hitting numbers are pretty good compared to other teams, that is not the major problem. 825320[/snapback] I'm pretty sure we've always been pretty close to the bottom in terms of homers, just based on the park we play in. I really wouldn't know where to look that up but I'm sure someone can. A big hit like a double or triple (as happened tonight) would do us wonders from time to time, though. :whistle 825371[/snapback] Through 70 games we have hit 58 HRs. So we are on pace to hit 134 as a team this year. Last year we hit 148. This is taking into consideration the whole point of this past offseason was that we added power we didn't have and we are on pace to hit less homeruns than last year. 2003 we hit 157 HRs. Even in 2002 we hit 146. Power is this team's problem right now especially since that is what was suppose to be improved. And power is not something you can blame on Robinson you can not teach power. 825373[/snapback] You're right. Power is a problem. If Lowell would be on pace to hit 25 HRs this season (he averaged 28 the last 3), he'd have about 11 HRs now. Since he has only 3 that would be 8 more. So the team total at this point would be 66 which is on pace for about 153. In summation, I blame Lowell.

send him to the bullpen already

Another crazy idea here, but why don't we try genetically fusing Kensing and Leiter and hope that together they form one decent pitcher?

I agree fully with rferry's assessment.

3/3 TB 1/3 Phi 3/4 NYM 7/10 overall

Crowell should be put on suicide watch.

I have Abreu, Burrell, Bradley and Bay in a 14 team league.

For me, it's Encarnacion and Moehler. I wasn't an Enc hater, but I didn't expect him to be among the national league leaders in RBI.

Kotsay and Dempster

It's a mathematical projection, nearly all projections are just as silly.

Alex Gonzalez fouls out on a pop up.

Mike Lowell singles to left field.

Paul Lo Duca strikes out.

Juan Encarnacion strikes out.

Griffey Jr. strikes out.
