So anyways thought I'd just update and say what's up. Not much is really going on around here. Just kinda chilling out. My first two classes were canceled so I'm at home just being a lazy ass. I'm trying to figure out how I do an annotated bibliography for my final paper except for the fact that it's a dialogue that I'm writing myself (the ( Read more... )

This is just my picks for the Halfway Hardwares which is basically the awards you give to MLB players but only halfed. :P Plus a few extras like "Surprise Player" and so on. I'm not doing Gold Gloves because that's better measured at the end of the season.

Since everything is all said and done I'm gonna do up my official scorecard of my guesses and what not. Anyways the gist is Bold font means that I got it right, Italics means I got the right player but the wrong ranking....the rest figures itself out. 1 point for Silver Sluggers and Gold Gloves. 2 points for the others (1 for player/manager in the ( Read more... )

I thought I'd just, while I have some time to kill and all, go and look at some of the funniest MVP votes of all time. I could probably wait for the MVP but screw it, I need to kill time before I get some lunch and head to class. So here we go...well I'll just do the past 10 years to begin. I wanna head out and get some lunch afterwards. PS I ( Read more... )

Just some random news and notes...

Young Catchers and the Teams That Love Them: In the realm of catching rumors, there's talks of Taylor Teagarden, Jarrod Saltalamacchia, or Kelly Shoppach for younger catchers. Shoppach would be interesting little return. I love the shit out of Teagarden and Salty is cool. The Rangers could hold everybody by the ( Read more... )

*The midnight deadline has come and gone and Lowell is exploring the market. For some reason, I'm not too worried. I guess I've come at peace with the situation. Whatever happens is gonna happen and there's no way we can control it. I love Mike Lowell and I will continue to do so wherever he ends up. Yes, even the Yankees. But why? You see, unlike ( Read more... )

Lowell Watch: Okay I'm starting to get a little worried, now. The deadline before other teams come stampeding over is tonight and I have a feeling if nothing gets done, Lowell's going to another team. And that's what sucks. Rob Bradford, who has a little bit of a crush on Mike Lowell in case you hadn't noticed, writes:

Just some news and notes...

From the "Re-Sign Lowell" Files

The Red Sox have officially made an offer to Mike Lowell. The main logistics is that it's a 3 year contract. Dan Roche is saying that it's 3 years and between 35-45 million. However, WHDH who reported this late last night said it was 3 years and 36 million. Now if you ask me, I'd ( Read more... )
