  1. With this rain today, I can almost smell the grass growing under the 3' of snow!  Bring on the baseball!

  2. This explains my confusion. I needed to go to my record collection, not my baseball card collection!
  3. Agreed on the pitching I'm still questioning whether they can hang with a legit postseason pitching staff. I'm not convinced of that yet. Even then, they'd need to be healthy come playoff time. Could they match up? I wouldn't be shocked by it if they did, but I don't expect it. And that's what is holding them back from something greater than winning a poor division, in my opinion.
  4. I think they're more than just a piece away from being legitimate contenders for anything aside from the division, but I tend to agree that they can afford to be patient when it comes to making a move for the division. If some of the young guys can stay healthy and produce, they may surprise some people, but I'm still lery of what they can do in October. But with this division, yes, they can afford to wait.
  5. I have a piece of the turf somewhere. No idea where it is, so that was money well spent...
  6. I think the real question to come out of this is whether or not Mr. Carlsson has one of those 'FART MASTER' signs in his collection.
  7. I love Coors Field. Been there a few times and haven't found a bad seat in the house yet. Though, I like the RF corner, up high. Especially at night with a great view of the mountains and sunset. Gorgeous view In CF, you get the Denver skyline. I'll be there in May. Tickets are quite cheap. I definitely took advantage of that!
  8. Watching his BP sessions from field level was something to behold too.
  9. Pitchers and Catchers Report! It's like music to my ears!
  10. Gonfalon - THE WORD OF THE DAY!
  11. Heckuva first post! Welcome to TD!
  12. Welcome to TD!
  13. It's kind of this FOs MO to make these sorts of bets, so I agree entirely. It's hard to argue with the results of that approach in the 2nd half of last season. I only hope that playing with fire twice doesn't end up burning them.
  14. Rings matter in Hall conversation, perhaps more than they should in a sport where one player has about as minimal impact as they do in baseball. That has to be looked at differently with catchers though. Their impact on the game is greater than any other single player. I think that has value. Quite a bit even. That's where Molina and Posey get a lot of boost, and I think rightfully so. However, the statistical body of work must be recognized as well. It's hard to argue with what Joe was able to accomplish as a catcher statically. He just didn't have the pieces around him to win titles as Molina and Posey did.
  15. In my view, that's part of the conversation. If Gordon earns a spot over either of those two, they didn't earn it. Gordon did. The same is true in reverse.
  16. I think both of these guys are great bench players. I wouldn't be opposed to Gordon starting, but he's got to earn that. And I think they can probably do better, but if he earned it I can't argue with that.
  17. I'm just going to sit here and laugh at this for a while...

  18. Good call! However the one by me closed a few months ago!
  19. Probably easier to find a Golden Corral. Not sure that Old Country Buffet still exists.
  20. You've missed out if you enjoy endless supplies of fried chicken and chocolate pudding! Among other things!
  21. Great, now I want endless supplies of fried chicken and chocolate pudding! (Searches for car keys...)
  22. Only if you're on your way to get a Big Mac?
