  1. So which guy should Montero plunk? Perfect situation for it at minimal cost.
  2. Nice time for another crooked number. Although 11 arguably isn't crooked.
  3. I read that Brown had rediscovered his fastball. Seems the Twins have rediscovered his knuckle curve.
  4. Three opppnent singles with a combined velocity of 200 mph is a bad sign. But it's still early.
  5. Contreras has pretty good stuff. Just needs to put guys away.
  6. Don't plunk this guy. We want him in left field tomorrow and Sunday.
  7. What. A. Play. You won't see many betters by anyone.
  8. Too bad Montero's already pitched, because he'd be the ideal guy to clock somebody with a 95 heater and get tossed.
  9. Does Abreu ever have an appearance without walking a guy? Needs to use the heater more.
  10. In terms of transfer help for the following season, aren't we by rule limited to non-SEC programs? That obviously still leaves a ton of schools but eliminates some of those most likely to have major talent stuck behind elite starters. I guess we can still try to raid the B10, B12 and ACC.
  11. A Florida prospect who committed to a now-departed Texas coach without even visiting Austin decommits to follow him to another school? That's so very shocking.
  12. I'm told anyone can play 1B. So I'd explore a move for Jimmie Foxx or Lou Gehrig.
  13. There's likely something to this. I was no coveted athlete, but at 17 I really resented people telling me where to go to college. I ended up at Texas, because that's where I wanted to be. It was my choice...not the same destination as Moore, but obviously the same principle. I also can appreciate the "freedom" that comes from being so far from family, as I moved 1,000 miles from home for my career. And that was without having social media for staying in touch. The world is now smaller than ever, and especially so for someone whose travel whims will be eagerly accommodated by an army of enablers.
  14. As unpleasant as it is to have Phil regularly flashing his debit card for Oregon, imagine how sick we'd all be if Jerry were doing the same for Arkansas. We actually are going to be playing those troglodytes.
  15. This mess started way back there. Phil Knight let Auburn buy Cam Newton for a mere $180K and then knock his Ducks out of the title. For pocket change (by Phil's standards), Oregon could have been high bidder for the QB and won that title, letting Phil die happy instead of now complicating our recruiting. What was he thinking?
  16. If only we'd add some neon and sequins to our uniforms this wouldn't even be a contest.
  17. True...which is why Hader needed to have a pitch "get away from him" and ricochet through their dugout at 98. 😃
  18. This is getting old. And I'm not even the guy getting plunked.
