MALACHAI!!! Oh, that's Boyer. My bad.

I hat these fucking Florida fuckholes.

A little gayness never hurt anyone. Except maybe in their mouths and/or assholes.

Wicked pissah!

I shall be blessing the CPF with my unique blend of cock jokes and pop culture references for these games... apr 19-21 at houston may 27-29 philly july 29-31 at nats aug 5-7 atlanta

It's a great little park. We had great seats, cold beers, beef franks and baseball. Wright's HR was an opposite field shot. Capuano was solid though I was surprised he left so early. My wife and son cooked out there like soft cheese on a hotplate.

9th row, sunshine, bases loaded 2b.

Helpful for fantasy purposes, thanks for assembling. I wonder if Volquez gets the nod in Cincy, especially with Harang having been dealt and Cueto having health issues.

I'm doing the same 3 I did last year... 1. The CPF NL only 2. A head to head league, online, that ABNS brought me in on with some of his West coast homies 3. A 14 team money league ($65 entry) with keepers that I've run since 2002. First 14 rounds done via email, the last 14 done live online and in person at the Fman household... This one is my obsession...

I did. I lurve my team.

The first thing I think of is him, standing on the mound, incredulous, in 2006 LCS game 7 as Endy Chavez bails him out with the greatest catch I ever saw happen in real time (on TV, but still). All those moments of him sucking three years of roster cock, I'll try not to think about.

Tomorrow, 9:30 PM Eastern time. Should be fun. A point of info... I did another live draft last night on Yahoo and had issues using Chrome to open the draft applet. Using Firefox did the trick.

"Cristhian Martinez" is: A) The birth hospital's/some civil servant's typo MLB.com's typo C) His parents' typo D) The guy's name; there is no "right" spelling-- it just is. Now what do you think of this incense-- too musty? Thith name ith jutht stho sthilly.

I know I drink a fair amount, but I never heard of any of these guys. I think you made all of them up to fuck with me. Are we casting for Major League 4 or something?

Dropped the fucking pop up. (That thread is a nugget of greatness, by the way. CPF in full mid-season form.)

No love for Lance Johnson '96 in CF? He put up all kinds of silly numbers that year...

How 2010 of him. Hitting a lot of singles and plating no one. Fuckity fuck fuck. It's still only mid-March. He's got time to warm up.

Sorry, I was taking a nap. Seriously, I've yet to watch any spring training baseball on TV. I need a night game.

Have fun y'all be sure to punch each other in the necks for me.

Fucking media. They are the least necessary part of the entire baseball experience. Just point the cameras at the game and shut your drama-holes.

Utley injury highlights cause for concern in Philadelphia Chase Utley, 32, seems to have aged quickly. He suddenly seems older for an everyday middle infielder with significant injuries to his hand, thumb, hip and right knee over the past four seasons, older for a guy who late last season already looked less fluid trying to play second base. Now, after his knee did not respond to rest -- ominous for an overuse injury to be this troublesome after a winter of rest -- he may need surgery. Guess how many second basemen as old as Utley played 130 games at the position last year. That would be one: Chone Figgins, who was awful (84 OPS+). Welcome to baseball in the Testing Era, where the actuarial tables have been rewritten. Ten years ago, in 2001, before testing, six guys 32 and older played 130 games at second base -- that's four years worth of such players in today's game (2007-10). Utley's ferocious work habits and hard style of play, not to mention plain bad luck, could be catching up to him. And that's the problem with the Phillies, your presumptive 2011 National League champions. They are an older team: Ryan Howard, 31, Utley, 32, Carlos Ruiz, 32, Jimmy Rollins, 32, Placido Polanco, 35, Raul Iba�ez, 38 . . . and now they want to replace Utley with Wilson Valdez, 32, who never batted 350 times in a season? The fallout from signing Cliff Lee is that the Phillies don't have room to add an established player at significant cost. But that may not be a bad thing for Philadelphia. It is better off finding a young, athletic, defensive-minded second baseman to stand in for Utley if he is out for a lengthy spell -- especially with all the money it has invested in pitching. Oh, and about that great starting rotation? Do you expect them to make all of their starts? Lee is 32, Roy Oswalt is 33 and Roy Halladay is 33. It is unusual for three guys on the same team age 32 and older to make at least 32 starts. It's happened only seven times since 1901, only four times without a knuckleball pitcher among the trio, and only once in the past 17 years -- back in 2001 when John Burkett, Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux of the Braves made the 32/32 club without the strain of needing plus-velocity. The Phillies are still a force to be reckoned with in the National League, but the Utley injury brings their worst-case scenario into play. They look like a great team on paper, but because of age, durability is Philadelphia's concern.
