How Much Does It Cost To Escape Tucson?

PrintThe answer is $5M, apparently.
Mark Gonzales is reporting that a deal could be announced by as soon as Tuesday night, which just so happens to match the reports from our embedded SSSer Hoytsstach.
Was having a beer at a bar here in Phoenix. A guy came up to me, saw my Sox hat, said he’s been workin on the move from Tuscon, should be announced tomorrow night. By the way, he bought me a beer cuz of the hat, as if you wanted to know.
Beer tastes good.
We're going to call this one. The always reliable Phoenix area bar exit polls indicate that the White Sox are moving to Glendale.

i thought it was "hoytsstash" and not "hoytsstach"
but whether it’s about the drugs or the mustache, it ain’t a bad handle.

so they get his age 33-36 seasons?
i think he probably will be successful next year. his rate stats weren’t no joke. but his fastball is only going to get less fast and that will probably have a deleterious effect on his slider whiff rate, not to mention the obvious: balls will get hit harder.

Is that about what Lilly signed for last year?
Or was it in the $45M range?
it’d be like defending your choice of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to someone who eats dog shit.
he signed in '06 according to cots
he’s due for 12 per over the next two. that’s roughly comparable given inflation.

Dempster
You can have him. They will regret it within a year. How’d that big Sosa deal work out for them?…hah!
Wasn’t Dempster nearly a washed up closer?
And he showed his true colors in the playoffs.
And the glove flip thing is just dopey.
But that’s just me.

Seriously,
Hendry has been making moves the past couple years like he doesn’t expect to be the GM of that team in a few years. He reminds me of myself playing franchise mode in video games and just backloading the hell out of contracts because I know I won’t have the patience to play more than a couple seasons.

opposing views
I won’t attempt to value Dempster, because he spent 2006 and 2007 as a reliever—a reliever who couldn’t keep his K/BB > 2—so it’s difficult to predict his future from the recent past. He’ll be 32 in May, so it’s not like he’s finally getting his act together. 2008 screams "fluke!" While I believe he may be more valuable as a starter than as a reliever, I wouldn’t recommend devoting more than $10 million/year—if that—to a player with his track record. And before someone mentions "the supply of pitchers," teams should not be willing to pay a player more than his marginal revenue product. They might pay him less, but not more.
http://www.sabernomics.com/sabernomics/index.php/2008/11/whats-with-the-ryan-dempster-love/
But that’s the beauty of this deal for the Cubs – they’re not paying him like they expect him to repeat his 2008 season. At $14 million per season, they’ve essentially valued him as a +2.5 win pitcher, which would translate to a 4.25 FIP over 180 innings. In other words, they’ve built a regression of almost a full run per nine innings into Dempster’s expected performance, based on this contract.
If Dempster really did establish a new level of performance in ‘08, this is going to go down as a massive steal for the Cubs – they’d be getting an all-star pitcher for the same price that Carlos Silva got last winter. He can take a pretty sizable step back and this still would be a positive value contract. Essentially, for this to be a bad deal for the Cubs, Dempster’s going to have to get injured. If he stays healthy, this looks to be a big winner for the north side club.

How many wins should that kind of coin get you?
I’d say 17 minimally…and I don’t think he can do it.
"There will be surgery. It will heal. It will heal fast."- Carlos Quentin on NBC 5 News Chicago (9/5/08)
well, how many wins he gets has more to do the other 24 players than him.
and there were 14 pitchers last year with 17 or more wins. and there’s going to be more than 14 pitchers next year who make that kind of coin or more. not to mention guys who would make that much if not for arbitration etc.

Yep...owners are willing to pay a lot for mediocrity,
or to be more fair, “decent” players.

Must be nice. Anywho...just for fun...

Right. So it should actually be
“easier” to be a pitcher on the Cubs, since they could win 100 games in that division.
We’ll see how Mr. Flippy Glove does…the big contract will put quite a bit of pressure on him to win (the winnable games he can influence with a good or bad performance)…we’ll see.

I was a huge BA fan....
Really wanted him to win the starting job over Erstad in spring training of 07 (which he did), but i am pretty sure that ship has sailed. His defense is very good, but with the rest of our lineup as it stands today, you really couldn’t have his career .277 obp playing everyday.
Other Fun numbers
His career batting average 221
strikeouts 152
walks 42
all in 597 at bats
He’s a very good late inning defensive replacement, he’s cheap, and um…. yeah that’s all i can come up with….
If we every sign or trade for a decent centerfielder his value for this team won’t be much.
I am going to ask you one time, and i'm gonna ask you nice. Where the fuck is Ringo bitch.
first-base only?
The Yankees, for now at least, plan to play Swisher at first base and fill center field in another manner, perhaps internally.

Wood Cut From Winter Ball Team
Posted Nov. 18, 2008 10:12 pm by Ben Badler
Filed under: Daily Dish, Winter Ball
Talk about putting heavy weight on recent performance.
After Brandon Wood’s .167/.259/.250 start in 13 games for Estrellas, the Dominican Winter League club has released Wood, according to Baseball America correspondent Bill Shaikin.
“You’ve got to perform pretty much right off the plane,” Angels farm director Abe Flores told Shaikin.
No kidding. Wood, playing primarily third base, had six walks and 16 strikeouts in 54 plate appearances. Other than Wood, Wilton Veras (.563 OPS in 13 games) and Ed Rogers (.606 OPS in 9 games) have seen the most time at third base for Estrellas, which also has sent Tony Blanco, Javier Guzman and Henry Mateo out to the hot corner this winter.
Wood, 23, hit .296/.375/.595 in 103 games during the regular season for Triple-A Salt Lake, though he managed to bat just .200/.224/.327 in 155 at-bats with the big league club.

tampa bay rays: model franchise
they know who to throw under the bus when they don’t win the world series.
ST. PETERSBURG — The Tampa Bay Rays’ lead in Game 2 of the World Series was in jeopardy when someone yelled: It’s Super Raymond!
Hip hop blared from the stadium’s speakers as the fuzzy blue mascot, a black cape tied to his back, jiggled his butt until the once inconsolable crowd broke out in laughter.
Kelly Frank didn’t know it then, but it would be her last performance as Raymond at Tropicana Field.
After five seasons of perfecting Raymond’s butt-shimmy, the 27-year-old Frank was fired Monday. She said the Rays offered no explanation.

coop on bobby and the case of the missing strikeouts
"Hey, I like strikeouts as much as the next guy. I also like ground balls, fly balls, saves and wins. Bobby uses his stuff accordingly and has used all his weapons successfully over time in the big leagues.
“He can get ground balls, and sometimes ground balls are more valuable than strikeouts,” Cooper said. “I can remember some double plays he got on the first or second pitch, and he was quickly out of the innings. It’s awful nice knowing we have him out there to get those final outs.”

no one is going to buy that somebody would have some fairy name like "colin"
followed by “bourbon” unless i’m hocking goods on late night infomercials

as far as i'm concerned, that was when you really earned your stripes.
showing your face again after that took some stones, or at least indicates you are a woman with more than average levels of testosterone.

i didn't think twice about it
being able to write for a community of people like you guys is a pretty special opportunity. it’s like performing at the Mos Eisley cantina.

phenomenal thread
Colin, I propose this upcoming season, we have a drunk thread where as many people as possible are watching/commenting while drunk
-Jeeves Life in the Cell
as long as it's closed to the public, i'd do it
but more apparently, we need to start going to games next summer

E-mail me your contact info/address at dnolte@cfl.rr.com. I’d be a stictch to see Che’s visage in England. Gotta export this Sox magic.
it’d be like defending your choice of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to someone who eats dog shit.
Kids. No respect for poor typing.

I've fucked my tv off today
I went 7 years without one, and after the first couple of days never missed it. Then my dad gave me one of his last year and I have spent far too much time watching it.
I’m glad to be TV free again.
number one when it mattered!
you gave it a hand job?

Look we are after CC!
The White Sox are seeking a few smart moves that will lighten their payroll, perhaps allowing them to afford Sabathia.
