fractured left wrist dont sound too good.
He's streaky. I heard you the first 100 times. I don't care. Ride or die. -tdogg on c quentin
if they didn't notice it until the swelling went down, it's probably a hairline fracture.
but, yeah, not particularly good.
so letting her go out looking fat is a good thing?

If you want to stay married.
Trying to score runs with Juan Pierre as your leadoff hitter is like trying to suture a wound in a moving car. You might still be successful -- but why make it so hard on yourself?
How are you supposed to keep her spirit broken
if you don’t constantly degrade her?

How does this affect the cost of a Donny Lucy Fan Club membership?
Will it go up in price, or will it remain the same great bargain it’s always been?

LUCY!
I knew that ball I got signed by him at Spring Training ’10 would be worth something someday.
But this begs the question: Where will he play?

I was waiting for this. Figured it'd be WU.
Nice job, OPOS. lol!

I approve of the racial slight.
Tdogg gets reparations from me. I get his money, he gets to hate white people even more.
Impressive?
See Brett Farve.
My serenity is inversely proportional to my expectations.

dude had a week between games.
So fast he could hit a ball up the middle and it would hit him in the ass sliding into second.
He never faced Bruce Chen, did he?

From wikipedia
Both of Bruce’s grandparents have died, but he hopes to reconnect with his Chinese roots someday.
This is not the way to do it!!

Maybe he can adopt a Chinese girl
and teach her how to throw like one.

Charlotte Chronicles..
Lucy grabs his bag and attempts to slither out of the clubhouse.
“Where yu goin hombre?,” asks Dayan who had noticed Donnie with his flip flips in his hand
“The show. AJ’s hurt.” Lucy turned away. He felt the beginnings of a smirk on his face.
Dayan dropped to his knees and raised his arms to the ceiling, “fuuucccccck!”

And then, akin to Willem Dafoe's fate in "Platoon"
he was machinegunned – this time, by Jordan Danks.
Then he took out his journal and stared longingly out the window

damn it. was hoping to hear him serenaded by the angel faithful.
I love seasons too. That's why I live in a place that skips the shitty ones.
One starts to question our catchers' toughness...
when two of them get sent to the DL by pitchers known to be soft-tossers. Clearly, they are not Chicago tough.

Sorry, Flowers, back to one game a week for you.
He can’t possibly expect to play over Lucy can he?

The surest way to perform a successful exorcism is to invoke Donny Lucy around the demon.

Didn't think I'd ever see Flowers and Lucy on the same major league roster before September 1
Unless they were both released and signed by Seattle.
Frank Thomas's wOBA at the time of the 1994 strike was .497. He was on pace to hit 54 homers, drive in 152 runs, walk 152 times, and pile up 10.5 WAR.
Is it too much to ask that Ozzie have somebody throw at Chen in the Royals dugout next time they play?

The next time we face Chen...
somebody needs to hit him with a line drive in a painful place
Sabermetrics hurt my head, just give me the facts.
AJ's wrist? PK's calf? Rios' AB?

1-day contract for Zambrano?
"Why would I be hitting Cheeper dat night?" - A portion of Carlos Zambrano's denial of trying to plunk Chipper Jones to achieve an ejection.
Ah hell...
Wasn’t it in 2005 when Buehrle had a broken foot that healed in about 3 days?
AJ is very grindy…he’ll tape it up and be back in no time.
In the mean time, I will work on my best Ricky Ricardo impersonation…“Oh Lucy!”

If the Sox end up winning the division with this mess of a 2011 season, it will be Guillen’s best regular-season managerial job, period.

I like that there are 4 former White Sox on the list, 1 current and Chone Figgins which is honorary.
All season, I have been hearing you extolling his virtues to anyone who would listen
I no longer listen to your twisted groupthink opinions.
that and you hadn't owned a glove until this summer
how am I supposed to take anything you say about baseball seriously?
Love Zambrano to the Jays for Teahen - my favorite:
The Cubs could attempt to use Teahen as a supersub next year. But to Toronto, does Zambrano offer any advantage to Teahen?
Uh, he would hit better than Teahen by a factor of 3, and probably supersub as well.

I remember reading an op-ed
in the Tribune c. 2006, suggesting that Zambrano should be converted to the outfield, because hey, it worked for Babe Ruth. And you wonder why I don’t read the Tribune sports section.
Frank Thomas's wOBA at the time of the 1994 strike was .497. He was on pace to hit 54 homers, drive in 152 runs, walk 152 times, and pile up 10.5 WAR.
if he ever hurt his arm
he should have converted to a position player. he’s a hell of a hitter for a pitcher. with more focus, he could be a legitimate position player, too.
With more focus
we would not be having this conversation.

He has gone off the rails
because he cannot concentrate on his job. If he has the mental capacity to hit he’d be able to pitch without completely melting down.
maybe.
we’d still be having the conversation about the cubs needing to dump his salary. as i recall, he’s one of the top ten highest paid players. he isn’t a top ten pitcher in his division. and it’s his stuff that’s the primary problem.
Come on, now.
Now you are just arguing to argue. The premise was that he’s a good hitter and if hurt he sould convert to a position player. Well, he is hurt. His head is totally fucked. Mental hurt is legitimate, and it is legitimately hurting his ability to perform at baseball in any capacity.
You don’t get sent to your room for 30 days because of salary issues.

it was fun, jim gaffigan is great
and it was material i hadn’t heard before. he only did his Hot Pocket material as an encore. I lost about a hundo playing poker afterwards…was way too drunk to be playing, but whatever. i was talking shit to the opposite end of the table because they were all folding machines (i think I asked the dealer to check those people’s pulses to make sure they were still alive). i got my comeuppance when I flopped a set of 9’s and one of these folks flopped a flush, and I didn’t improve to a full house on the turn or river.
gaffigan is hilarious
