Assuming we have both Green and Floyd healthy and starting, which one do you pul Chavez in for when it comes time for late-inning defense? If Floyd and Green turn out to have the same defensive skills, you might make the decision based on who's due up for the opponents in the 9th inning? Lefties? Put Endy in right. Righties? Put Endy in left. You can also factor in Floyd's and Green's lineup positions. If one of them isn't likely to bat again and it's doubleswitch time, you can let Endy replace the guy whose turn is furthest away.
  2. Yes, limited to the majors. I pulled that list from the UMDB's "this player also player for" table.
  3. ="Zvon"]="MFS62"]the Anderson Hernandez catch/nose dive. Zvon, if you want to have some Photoshop fun, you can put a Frisbee in this picture. It looks like Hernandez is trying to catch something in his mouth.
  4. I don't think the fans at Shea would sing along with a song that they don't know.
  5. Even I can see that point.
  6. I think there are too many, but I admit I have a minority perspective here.
  7. Then spring became the summer
  8. Nothing kills a sing-along like mention of earworms.
  9. ="Rotblatt"]Uh, I now have Sweet Caroline in my head. It's getting kind of annoying. That's been happening to me, too. Where it began...
  10. Tessie. I won't cut fresh flowers for you. Tessie. I won't keep the wine cold for you.
  11. I don't see anything particularly hateful about Tucker. He didn't wear the Braves uniform out of a desire to be evil. They're just one of 30 baseball teams. I have no problem with Tom Glavine being a former Brave either. Or Julio Franco. Should they have refused to ever play for the Braves because the team from Atlanta is inherently evil? And were the Braves evil back in 1987 when Glavine first pitched for them? Can we forgive him for pitching for the Braves back then because it was a youthful indiscretion, but loathe him for not leaving as soon as they became evil? (And when was that anyway?) Or have the Braves always been evil? If that's the case, should I rip up my Felix Millan baseball cards?
  12. I share a birthday with Bob Hope, and I liked that he had a celebrity-studded special on NBC every year on my birthday. Not that I ever watched those shows, though. He doesn't do them anymore because he's dead at the present time.
  13. I don't do SC ratings.
  14. I know what you mean. I hope that some day the Mets will have a player who was born in Brooklyn like I was.
  15. I'd prefer to go into the playoffs with Floyd than without him.
  16. It'll probably be a few hours before we find out what roster move the Mets make to accomodate Green. And don't they also have to activate a pitcher to fill in for Glavine's next start? I think the handwriting's on the wall for Ricky Ledee. Or does Milledge go to Norfolk instead? Who would we rather have on the playoff roster? Ledee or Milledge?
  17. Hey! How about that lineup?
  18. And yet none of us were pleased when we thought that David Wright might be a disciple of the liquid feces guy.
  19. What about Elio Chacon?
  20. Isn't a player allowed something like 72 hours to report after a trade? The eager ones arrive quickly. The reluctant ones take 72 hours. Maybe Shawn had to stop at home to water his plants or something.
  21. I think he's expected on Thursday.
  22. They can have a bad September if they want. As long as they get it back in gear for October. (I don't see them having a September so bad that it will cost them the postseason.)
  23. ="OlerudOwned"]I found a picture for one of the Faceless Bottom 20, Tito Navarro Thank you!
  24. I thought it was "Point."
