    I think it's Buh-REE-um.

    Also, we need catching help.

    Nice play Sano.

    Hey all, just checkin' in and deciding if I want to watch tonight's game. Anybody know who's toeing the mound for the local nine tonight?

    You might be correct. He might end up a good starter. I think that's wishful thinking, but I've certainly been wrong before. As an aside, I pay no attention to WAR, I think it's junk. At best, if its math, it's questionable math. So while others might be swayed by a WAR based argument, it falls on deaf ears in my case. The innings argument has some validity, except that I think the usage of a good reliever makes up for a lot of the difference, particularly if the relief innings are more dominant.

    That's debatable.

    I'm not overwhelmed by an argument that failed starters are a reason to give others a chance to fail first.

    Actually, he was a starter with a great arm, who had iffy secondary stuff, problems with consistent command, and a tendency to get exposed as a starter, but who's stuff plays up as a reliever. Sort of like what I expect is the most likely result with Meyer.
  10. USAFChief
    I would let Meyer develop into a late inning Bullpen weapon. Given his pitch mix and tendency to lose his delivery over time, I think that's his best use. I think the Twins see it that way too, and had him start in Rochester simply to get some innings in. When Santana returns, he can take the place of any starter, including Milone. Same for Gibson. The bigger need is dominant relief. I vote trying to get Meyer successfully into that role.

    I grow more impressed with Park by the game. He'll K, a lot, but he mostly forces pitchers to get him out on pitches in the strike zone, and when he connects, he hits the ball hard. Need to keep him in the lineup.
  13. USAFChief
    I think that has a great chance of ultimately happening. He's going to need to prove himself first, and I'm ok with that.

    Fun-ny. Ha! I KILL me!

    Call me old school, call me crazy, call me what you will. But I've watched a lot of baseball over the years, and I've come to one irrefutable conclusion: Winning beats the #**(# out of losing.

    Winnah!
  19. USAFChief
    I blame you.
  20. USAFChief
    Out.
  21. USAFChief
    It almost seems like you waited all night for that.
  22. USAFChief
    You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
  23. USAFChief
    I didn't grab enough stuff.
  24. USAFChief
    You might have just proved his point
  25. USAFChief
    Quick, everyone google names of old ships to pile on with. We'll wait.
