not surprsing, those bastards (Rogers) wouldnt know baseball if Ted himself got beaned with one.(That's the owner to my knowledge, or are they still owned by tht foreign brewery?)

and thats' not a half bad record, a good win strak and you could be right back in this
Well, that sounds like a miserable mess to look out the window at. At least there's baseball on today. Hopefully we win, win, win like the Yankees are going to do to the Red Sox!

Yeah, I usually don't think about my comments, either, until I look over them for typos, obssessive-compulsive freak that I am. Works out OK, though, at least sometimes.

Sh*tty, and you're about right with your little assessment. Let's see, we are...12th in the league. Huh? How? Why? Well, Chris Scarborough, who's been in the top 10 of the prospect lists much of the year, is now #1. Numero uno. Boy, I'm a freaking genius. Oh, and Ray Butner's number 100. Ryan Wing, one of the left-handed starters at AA, has been on the list from time to time this year as well, though he's not recently. So I guess we're better than I thought...though beyond the two young pitchers, we don't have a whole lot.

Heh. I hope so. But if he starts pitching well...I might be tempted to re-sign him. No...no, never mind. But as a long reliever...just for the nickname...

Great job Craig, and as always,

GO PALE HOSE!!
I don't know why we're playing well, though I don't remember thinking in the first few months of this season, "You know, if we just stop with the nine-game losing streaks and 25-1 losses, we might do OK." Maybe we are now. And who needs the first overall pick when you can get Chris Scarborough with the three?

And I agree. Go Pale Hose...go on to fourth place already. Go trade Dmitri Young. Go on, go on, go on...
