General All Purpose Baseball Card Thread

Bumped for merger. -

No Ike for Turner though. Yeah, thought Ankiel might be in there also. Keeping Ike planted was curious. Interesting that he gets a full think-about-it day.

Taking two of three on the road, even from a sub-average squad like these Cubs, is a step in the direction of rightitude. Doing it on a rookie's homer is nice. And Rice is nice too. How about super-reliable Bobby Pee?

Wifey is so lying.

Wright swings at some garbage off the plate. But maybe that pitch moved off.
-
Schierholz is a good fourth outfielder to have.

I don't know. Wood will be out of the game soon enough, and then all those lefties will be of more use. Get Buck up there in a homerun park against a pitcher at the end of his rope. Or use him to force a pitching change.

Nice.
-
Sending Valdy up against a lefty?

I'll take that.

Not an inspiring was to capitalize on a 3-0 count from Turner.
-
Nor with leaving that pitch up.
-
Slip by Byrd, double-pump by Tejada, and I thought Sweeney was in there. Goofy the way his arms got stuck under him, thought.

The pre-game show to the last game of the 1981 World Series. It would be the last WS game the Yankees would play for 15 years (and it should have been longer). Great Oprahicious interviews by Howard Cosell (the subjects were clearly coached on whichquestions were coming), with great hair and fashion and concussion drama.

It's a definite miss. But a gloriously stupid miss. Same period and same themes as this one, though.

Great, now that we've used it twice, that word has now become too common. -
Alderson and Davis meet today, as per the Rube, and both came away claiming that Alderson indicated that a demotion was not imminent. Alderson, asked if Davis had a �significant amount of leeway or this is going to come to a head,� told ESPNNewYork.com: �Everything comes to a head at some point.� I'd totally give that answer. People would hate me if I was GM.

Seven homers in nine innings for Carson. That's just a terrible score, Edward.

I'm thinking that right about now, Houston may have the worst all-time record in American League history.

"The Most Cynical Ballpark in the Major Leagues"

Yeah, if he's a prince, I wouldn't put him in the Renaissance. Maybe an Ostrogoth, slowly bringing his people out of a long subugation by the Huns. Tired of war but being so good at it, willing to live a warrior's life that his successors may know a life beyond conquest. He's driven by a little bitterness, that his people envy the sophistication and civilization of Roman citizenship, but he's seen Rome, and he knows they're better than that, and that Romans themselves consider the Ostros too pointless even to notice. He sometimes stares at the Danube and imagines a home there by the shore, to retire when the warring is done, but then he gets another image of the same river stained with his blood. Maybe at the hands of the divisional rival Huns, and maybe from the crosstown Romans. But what's the difference? The river doesn't care. He's that sort of prince. Not a particularly handsome one. And he's got an Escalade, so you know he's more than a little Romanized himself. And that's just got to tear at him a little.
