i was at the library working since noon, and i was studying the whole time until i started chatting it up with you and vlad. I was actually kicked out of the lib at midnight. tomorrow its back to the library at 9am - midnight.
Thanks for the concern.
Vlad, you taking the MCAT on the 24th? Good luck bro, i'll be in hell with you. That's the first day of my bar exam. |

Big FA's after this season:
Kris Benson [RHSP]
Eric Milton [LHSP]
Randy Wolf [LHSP]
- They need this more than anything. Milton isnt exceptional but hes a lefty. Randy has potential, can be awesome, but again its important that hes a lefty.
Eric Byrnes [CF]
Torii Hunter [CF]
Aaron Rowand [CF]
- Discussed already. Rowand preferred, but either of the 3 would be welcomed.
Adam Dunn [LF]
- Dunn will give you the ugliest 40HR season. But it will get Matsui out of the field.
Joe Nathan [CL]
- Mo is close to retiring.
Yorvit Torrealba [C]
- Posada is getting old, Nieves is horrible, Torreabla could fill the spot off the bench, and eventually take over.
Dmitri Young [1B]
- Temporary solution at 1B, although signing Dunn does that also, but we dont need another Giambi. |

Andy phillips looks like he really wants the first base job. Big hit after big hit with runners in scoring position since he's come back.
Now back to studying.
btw....i was reading a previous post about cordero, he wasn't run out of the american league, he was traded to milwaukee for carlos lee. I think he would be a good pick up in the offseason. i can't see milwaukee seriously dealing him now when they are a serious contender in the NL
Also, i should correct myself, i said that upton played 2B, clearly thats not true, he's a CF. i was thinking about his brother. |

| Last nights talk about Shelly's power really cashed in today, going yard against TB's reliever Ryu. |

Didnt Cordero go through a stretch for Texas where he was getting ripped apart? He lost his CL job to Otsuka last season, and was traded. At the same time Turnbow was getting ripped apart in Milwakee and were in dire need. Milwakee also got Mench, Nix and some minor leaguer in that deal. |

you're right that he had a poor season with texas last year, but prior to that he was pretty solid.
about duncan, im always worried when someones first hit is a HR. It shows what he is trying to do. Hopefully he'll settle down and not try to destroy each pitch. But that said, im glad he showed what he's capable of. was it a monster blast? im not watching, i'm taking hourly breaks from studying and posting and checking the scores. |

I didnt see the blast, I dont have Yes network. But I wouldnt be surprised if be went at it like a bull seeing red.
Im studying as well. Doing 2 passages and taking a few minutes break. |

it's the only way to stay sane.
glad we won the first game, so at worst we can only move a half game lower....i have no idea about game 2 b/c de salvo is pitching and he hasn't been around for about a month. hopefully he brings his A game today. Man i can't wait for hughes to come up. |
