Couple of quick reminders:

1. I don't think Freel is an everyday player.

2. I think he has a screw loose, the imaginary friend, and all.

3. I think he runs into too many outs.

4. I do like the effort and think he is a worthwhile utility player, if used correctly, can add value to the team.

 

All of that being said, I LOVE this quote from him after last night's game:

 

"I feel like I can compete and be an unbelievalbe player at one time and then I feel like I’ve never played baseball in my entire life. I have to be more consistent. When you have a leadoff hitter with a .294 on-base percentage, there’s no excuse for that. That’s horrible. It’s a big key, getting on base for these guys, the superstars on this team, Griffey and Dunn, there’s a lot you can do. But I’ve been doing a lot of right turns on first base and heading to the dugout. I’m professional, I’ll be accountable."

 

Accountability is a rare thing in professional sports. He at least gets it a little bit...

. Put GT on. Anything's an upgrade at this point.

 

Wow - GT must have goosebumps with this ringing endorsement.

Boo. You absolutely don't believe that, .

 

I try to stay hip on current slang but was having trouble with this one so I googled "slang boo" and found out what you meant by the above:

 

boo

1. Your boyfriend/girlfriend. "Dat's my boo your messing with!"

 

Now I know and I feel better . Surprised. But, as I said, now I know.

 

 

 

Michael Reghi was the other announcer. He is the guy that does Cavs games for FSN Ohio. I'm not a fan, but apparently I'm in the minority.

 

.

 

You mean you didnt like when the guy asked Chris if he had been pleased with the bullpen this year?

Wow. That is really all I can say. Wow.

Wow. That is really all I can say. Wow.

 

I aint hatin'.

I aint hatin'.

 

...but you are buying lunch.

Adam Dunn tells Petey Mac that he doesn't like being replaced late in the games. Also you'll read Brewer's GM Doug Melvin's thoughts on HSSB and the rumor that he started. :lol: :lol:

I heard Lance had it on his blog. I didn't know he was a BGPer.

 

However, its not there today.

HSSB broke the story way before Lance did. For those of you to lazy, here's what Melvin had to say about HSSB's rumor. I can't wait to see how HSSB responds to Mevlin's comments about him. :lol: :lol:

 

 

"I'm taking more calls deflecting these kinds of rumors than I've had talking to GMs," said Melvin, whose club is already flush with left-handed-hitting outfielders. "There are freaking geeks who get ... off on this kind of stuff."

Give Kyle Loshe the award for being lazy instead of running down the line!

Definite fan interference on that one. Some fans are just dumb.

That was a great catch by the fan though...

Ahhh...I thought it was an average catch. Ah well, atleast the umps made the right call and it didn't turn out like the 96 playoffs between the Yanks and Tigers.
