I understand there are some that are lobbying for a game threader badge and a mention that one person wanted to hand out trophies. Well I assume i will get neither, so can I get a participation certificate?

 

i'm sorry they have to be earned... But you are welcome to join and start earning.

Scott Diamond & Sam Deduno>Sandy Koufax & Don Drysdale

 

It's close, but given that Drysdale's dead and Koufax is 73 I'm forced to agree.

Yes. I need to know his opinion on the Ginger vs. Olivia debate, for instance.

Well, Sandy's been retired since the 60s and Double D is deceased, so I guess Scott and Sam are greater than the Dodger greats at this time. FWIW, Koufax is/was the best pitcher I ever saw--I only really remember two pitches--a great fast ball and an outstanding 12-6 curve.

That's science.

 

In terms of the Science of pitching, Diamond is to either Koufax or Drysdale approximately as Phil Niekro is to Diamond.

 

/ in terms of results, Terry Felton comes to mind

Speaking of Dodgers, I just watched Matt Guerrier pitch himself into and out of a jam. Matt looks about only 80-90% as good as he used to, and he may have injured his hand on the last play of the inning.

That entire paragraph applies to every 2013 Dodger.

I am amazed by how poorly the Dodgers and Angels are playing, considering their large payrolls and supposed superstars. On the other hand, it makes it cheaper for me to score tickets on Stubhub when the Twins come to town.

Wow a debate for this? Well being I have met the legend that is Oliva, I will have to say Ginger. Why not Mary Ann though?

Cut the false modesty, Dry Humor Man. Frankly, it's becoming tiresome.

I think he meant Tony Oliva. Him versus Mary Ann would be a tough call.
