  8. His current slash line is .131/.198/.179, 0 HRs, 9 RBI, 34 Ks, with a wRC+ = -4, which is dead last of the 908 qualified hitters throughout all levels of the minor leagues on FanGraphs.
  9. Garden State. Soundtrack is the best of 2004-in-a-bottle (The "life-changing" Shins, Frou Frou, Remy Zero, stirring entries from Iron and Wine and Men at Work's Colin Hay), along with lovely selections from Nick Drake and Simon and Garfunkel. The movie was kinda twee and annoying, full of characters that are mere collections of "interesting" quirks... and it's aged even poorer than it played back then. The music, though... it's an exquisite, lonely little road trip. [YOUTUBE]EKGHkBComjM[/YOUTUBE] This was the first soundtrack that i thought of for this thread. There's another Zach Braff vanity project with a great soundtrack: https://www.amazon.com/Wish-Here-Music-Motion-Picture/dp/B00L47E4JGhttps://www.amazon.com/Wish-Here-Music-Motion-Picture/dp/B00L47E4JG
  10. I've been with them since the beginning and it was as good a denouement as i could've hoped. Sure, the 2nd act was overlong, but Act I sets up everything great and Act III packed an emotional punch.
  11. a lot of bad "method" acting.
  12. Winter definitely came to this game, but at least i got a bobblehead.
  13. [bLOCKQUOTE]Davis and Frazier fill the same niche, so I don't really see room for them both.[/bLOCKQUOTE] this.
  14. yes, that will guarantee us a great year.
  15. It doesn't matter how old, bitter and cynical i get, Opening Day is always magical. Spring begins, and hope springs eternal in the human breast.
  16. yeah, i remember that. i was annoyed, because O'Day was a submariner and was fun to watch and effective in ST in the small bits i saw him. I'm not saying i knew he would end up having a good career, i'm just saying i noticed when we lost him and was particularly chagrined at his success with Texas. I say this often, in other contexts, but it remains true nonetheless... fuck Texas.
  17. ok, but still.
  18. .234 / 9 HR, retires in September.
  19. how did that work out for them?
  20. what's with the "batting 2nd" thing? I mean, i'm not big on batting order, beyond giving your best hitters the most ABs, but Pete is a RHed moose, with a lot of swing and miss in his game. That's like the complete OPPOSITE of what a #2 hitter usually looks like --LHed to block the catcher's view and throw, patient with good bat control, to hit&run or move leadoff hitter over or let him steal, and fast to stay out of DPs and score from 1st on xtra base hits by the middle of the order-- otherwise known as McNeil. And its not like Pete's PROVEN he's one of the team's best hitters, deserving of more ABs than McNeil (for example). Is breaking up the lineup with alternating LH/RH hitters more important than than putting the best guys in the best slots? Even with the "3-hitter rule" making that strategy less important? I don't know. I'm just asking. I mean, i won't lose sleep over it, but is this Calloway trying to look like he understands analytics?
  21. ain't THAT the truth!
  22. a flushing of Mets is what I'm willing to do, usually by August.
  23. my son asked me if i wanted to go with him last night, but i chickened out. I prefer to see horror films in the comfort of my home. why? cuz i'm a pussy.
  24. expect the mets!
