OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

This trade does not excite me, but I guess I'll just wait and SEE HOW IT PLAYS OUT.

That said, I'm surprised there isn't more Sam Fuld mourning from you guys.

Desippy worthy post right there. Chock full of the goods and a RedBeard insult that he probably won't even understand.

Oh, shut up you.

Submitted. Yeah, it's late. Whatever.


Suck it.

Or, alternately, you can suck this...

e) 5 point penalty for late picks (picks in after the start of 2011, but before the announcement of everyone else's picks sometime in January)


It's a good thing I can read, therefore, I knew this fact before submitting my picks.

Thread hijack:

Has everyone seen this? My god. I laughed until I laughed harder.

I LOLed. I'm LOLing...

I think pitching coaches do matter. Mechanics don't teach themselves. Players don't learn when/where to throw certain stuff on their own unless they're super sharp tacks, the sharpest of whom go on to be pitching coaches. I think hitting coaches are more interchangeable than pitching coaches, as most of hitting is respond/react and I don't think you can really teach that. Hitting mechanics are more about doing less in almost every case. Pitching is different, case-by-case.

Any slapdick could get his guys on a program, building up arm strength and running on the warning track. But one tiny flaw in a pitchers mechanics turn the whole fucking thing upside down. Carlos Marmol is a perfect fucking example. Pitching is fucking hard but when your arm is so live that your pitches move like Marmol's do, shit has to be precise or else fuckall.

I'm right. Don't bother to post unless to say THIS.

So where do you stand on Rothschild?

I've been a firmly established member of the meh camp since about 2002. He's had some success with some guys I didn't think were that great and he's failed with some guys that I thought had the goods. Overall the numbers are decent. If I were around him every day to see what he does and how guys react to him, I'd obviously know more and probably have a strong opinion either way. If he were gone tomorrow, I doubt we'd miss him.

Yep. Right in the nutsack. Whadda a douche.

I'm a big supporter of Soto, regardless, so no matter what happens to our fearless catcher, Fuck You PenFoe.

Samardzija needs to be punched in the nuts by Fork.

I wish Dempster had gotten pulled just one inning earlier. Otherwise, it would have been a pretty good outing. That and someone needs to punch The Marmot in The Nuts.

Someone needs to punch you in the nuts, you cock-tucking, dick-nosed git.

Wait... Would that mean that I'm tucking my nose?

Since it rarely happens on here, I'm going to positive Theriot. He did not suck today.

This thread is not about pitching.


Well... Fuck.

I would have thought that any reference to nut punching would have been welcome anywhere. I can now see that I was wrong. Thank you, PenFoe, for your service.
