Daniel Cabrera Is Gonna Cost More Than $1
by The Cheat on Dec 15, 2008 5:04 PM CST
353 comments
According to Ken Rosenthal, Daniel Cabrera's agent received 5 calls from teams in the first 30 minutes after Cabrera became a free agent early Saturday morning . Meanwhile, some Schmuck from the Baltimore Sun notes that Cabrera's agent has been contacted by 11 teams including one which has already made a multi-year offer.
I was firmly in the camp who thought Cabrera would be a great fit for the White Sox, if for no other reason than he's (almost) undoubtedly better than [Starter Candidate 5], even if he never reaches the potential that so many believe he possesses. Unfortunately, with nearly half the league reportedly interested, I don't think the Sox can sign him; not unless he'd take 3-year, 75¢ deal.

Stones Run It!
In high school Me and a few of my friends were surrounded by a group of “Moes” who are like Junior P-Stones after a movie at the dollar theater… fun times did not ensue, but we got out of it without getting beaten too badly.

Jeff Fort (leader of the P Stones) went through a Moorish Science Phase and changed the name of the P Stones to El Rukins. The Moe thing is a tribute to that. I have some clients who are 3rd and 4th generation members…

What’s always been bizarre to me is the hot girl over-compensation “bravado”. Nut jobs.
…Although being homeless means I don’t have to worry about it too much.
Additionally, thousands of chubby or not so beautiful girls out their would love to look like these chicks, yet they have better self-esteem and fewer “issues”.

3. This guy can freakin fly… Literally he is extremely fast and he is known for jumping over pitchers from time to time. Nice signing cubbies.
4. Cool. I was afraid the Sox would sign him. Now if Tavarez would sign with the Reds I’ll feel a lot better.

I wonder if the enthusiasm for "bargain hunting" will drive up the price of guys like Cabrera?
Markets are weird fucking things.
by hitlesswonder on Dec 15, 2008 7:22 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
That was my thought
I don’t know if I’d call it bargain hunting, because I think of bargain hunting as finding an undervalued asset. But half of baseball thinks they can “fix” Cabrera. They might actually overvalue him.
We probably overvalue him as well under the same guise. I know if he signs somewhere else and pitches 15 games of 5.50 ERA before being removed from the rotation, I’ll probably be thinking “Coop coulda shaved a run or more off that ERA.”
He’s worth a 1-year flier in excess of $4M. But I think he’ll end up with more than that.
And since I think his future probably lies in the pen, I don’t think he’ll be worth what he’ll get paid next year.

Whatever...
I’m doubting that most other states are bastions of purity. Blago is corrupt and incompetent, but the graft that has been exposed seems pretty banal (not to excuse, just measure). I’m not sure if it’s terribly worse than the beltway banditry that is supported by many politicians at the federal level. Blago shouldn’t be governor, and should be in jail, but I’m finding the media shock and condemnation of IL a little overblown.
And for the record, Illinois government is abysmal right now, but it also produced John Peter Altgeld.

Gavin Floyd: Step Forward or Fluke?
Unfortunately, there are a number of reasons to think that Floyd’s 2008 campaign was more the product of good fortune than great pitching. Floyd’s ERA was a shiny 3.84, but he surrendered 19 unearned runs- pitchers bear some responsibility for those tallies as well. His strikeout rate was pretty ordinary, as he punched out 6.32 batters per nine innings, while serving out 3.05 free passes per nine. With a 2.07 K/BB ratio that was actually below the 2.12 AL average, Floyd’s Fielding Independent ERA (FIP) was a mundane 4.77. The 0.93 run difference between his ERA and FIP was the fifth-largest among all starters. Floyd’s .268 BABIP is going to rise, and with it, so will his ERA.

Beware English Soccer And Its Unclean Women
Napoli owner Aurelio De Laurentiis has a message for any of his players who are thinking about defecting to the Premiership:
"The English live badly, eat badly and their women do not wash their genitalia. To them, a bidet is a mystery."
