Elster88

I tried it last year GYC. It gets very boring, very quickly. Good luck to you.

BTW, I'm not angry or trying to pick a fight or anything. I changed my mind, don't sic your lawyer on me. Edit: I'm Cleon Jones.

Choices 3 and 4 are the same, no?

I thought I had explained myself, but apparently not. My only thought was that when this thread is done, it will be a laundry list of magic numbers which would be tedious to read through. I imagine most everyone will scroll right through them. Sue me, you big orange rock.

7 IP, 2-3 ER.

The kid's already getting snippy? ]Asked if he thought he should have scored, Milledge replied, "I could have, should have, didn't, but we won the game, so it doesn't matter."

Did you know that the Yanqs owe the Small Unit $17 million smackers next year? That makes me giggle like a schoolgirl.

Though, the idea that he should be sent down solely on the basis of that play is as silly as the idea that he should stay up because he hit well for the first two weeks he was here. Examine the package as a whole. Right now I see a .255 hitter who is an above average to excellent outfielder.

We all know what's going on, at least. It's not hard to figure who's gotten the better of this deal so far.

When Milledge scored with the walkoff run on a short fly out to the outfield a couple weeks ago, I mentioned that he was looking over his shoulder the whole darn time. And if he had been tagged out that would've been the reason why. Seriously does no one teach these punks to run? His play wasn't so much a matter of lack of hustle yesterday, it was just stupidity....watching the ball when you shouldn't be.

I'll disagree with you here, but if you want to take his half season and go through the retrosheet boxscores, and I take a season of Backman's, I bet I could find more bunt hits/PA. "That's too much work. Can I interest you in a sarcastic comment?"

Reyes 2 Beltran 2 Delgado 2 Wright 1.5 Oliver 1.5 Feliciano 1

I was going to do it, but it's really only interesting for the first month or so. Then it's tedious.

nymets.com inteprets Willie's comments to mean that Milledge Time may be over. Your interpretation may vary. PHILADELPHIA -- The days Lastings Milledge will spend in the big leagues in the immediate future appear numbered, though the number hasn't been determined. Barring injury to another outfielder, Milledge is likely to be returned to Triple-A Norfolk either when the disabled list assignment of Xavier Nady ends, or shortly thereafter. No one said so in as many words, but manager Willie Randolph made two remarks on Wednesday that made it clear Milledge's tenure will not last into July. First, the manager noted that the resumption of Interleague Play and the use of the designated hitter rule won't necessarily prompt him to use Nady (if he is activated), Cliff Floyd (if he's healthy), Milledge and Carlos Beltran in the same lineup. The manager had said he intends to use the DH rule to give Julio Franco some at-bats and veterans like Floyd, Beltran and/or Carlos Delgado partial days off. More to the point, Randolph said, "We've accomplished what we wanted with him. He's helped us get through some injuries, and he's played well. But what we wanted was to expose him to what it's like up here, so when he comes back, it's not all 'wow' for him." The manager has said several times that Milledge needs to play regularly. Activating Nady would make it difficult for Milledge to play every day. And Nady, Beltran and Floyd are going to play.

25-2 Keepers. I think a lot of people voted after seeing Milledge's baserunning fiasco yesterday.

Keith Miller is Wright's agent. Yes, that Keith Miller.

Ed Kranepool on my TV. He was at David's golf torunament.

Abreu is a weenie.

I like Cameron.

This park sucks.

It looks like it worked for Beltran, let's see what we can do!" By the way - you're all welcome for that. Not something to be proud of. ;-)

The big boys can't drive the runners in if they aren't getting on ahead of them. A minor disagreement here, for me the intentionality(?) of the two of the walks make his day slightly less impressive.
