    now name all of the players who started out as crappy third basemen whose careers went nowhere :-)
  2. jimmer
    and he wasn't anywhere near as athletic as Sano. :-)
  3. jimmer
    nope, but man I should be.
  4. jimmer
    Yup, but they decided when you tag someone best to keep the glove very near or on the runner in case he comes off the bag. Less flashy, more effective. :-)
  5. jimmer
    exactly! Mad Max does it again.
  6. jimmer
    Best I ever saw was Clemente :-)

    past the 7th inning, umpire discretion.
  8. jimmer
    that was funny!
  9. jimmer
    Max has made some really nice throws himself.

    team is running itself away from victory.
  11. jimmer
    people should stop running on him.

    Nolosco was born in the same city where I first lived (I was born in another city, emergency c-section).

    Sounds like fun. I've never been to it. Wish I had.

    The ice cream I had was at a Haegen Daas in the mall right down from the huge theater Luxembourg has. Think IMAX size then double that. That MIGHT be about as big as the screens there. Unbelievable sound system, and over-sized seats, set up stadium style, with plenty of leg room.

    I like him. He's fun to watch for many reasons. Hope he does well too. And the city of San Fran is great.
  16. jimmer
    I've had some ice cream that tasted like a million bucks. But I had that in Luxembourg.

    Come on Eileen.

    Bert asked if Suzuki had a vesting option based on at bats and Dick said, the contract status says he's signed through this year only. Isn't this something they should know? And they said if they deal him now it would preclude them from signing him for next year.
  19. jimmer
    yup, a double and an error. Oh and two strikeouts.

    Carlos Pena said Nunez can defensively play every position at a very high caliber level, gold glove caliber level. Those old school former players on MLB Network crack me up.

    probably has to do with three things 1: SBs don't really add much value and teams have gotten away from them mostly now that they realize that. Which is why such a low SB total leads the league. 2. Defense matters 3. If the every team has to have a rep rule wasn't in effect, he wouldn't have made the team. There were way, way better options available for his spot on the all star team. When people say he shouldn't have been an all star, some people take it as a slight, like people are saying he was horrible at that point. No one is saying that. Doesn't mean he hadn't been good, just that there were more deserving players.

    Got to be, "Cuts like a knife' and if I the guy who did music for an opposing team, I would actually play that song every time he took the mound. Like every inning.
  23. jimmer
    my feelings on the trade haven't changed one bit. I'm happy this trade happened and happy with what we got.

    Here's an interesting article about Nunez http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/eduardo-nunez-and-the-case-of-the-minus-28/ One of my favorite lines from it: 'I can tell you that Eduardo Nunez has been worth 1.0 WAR in his career, and 1.6 WAR this year. He was technically just an All-Star, but he was an All-Star in the way that the guys who finished after Lance Armstrong during his doping years are Tour de France champions'.
  25. jimmer
    I know who both teams have there for options, but even so, neither team has gotten good production from that position, but okay.
