Did you let IFFY back?

Only the first 17 times.

This isn't Iffy.

 

[HammerDown]

didn't think it was a worry.. I more thought it was a question to see what people think

We just don't know you yet. Welcome to SportsHoopla.

Welcome back Vice...

Vice has been back a couple times. Prolly uses specific computers at the plethora of businesses he owns in Lil' Habana.

 

[gandydancer]

I wonder if Vice has a degree on the wall in each office?

 

[gandydancer]

Guthrie 14 earned runs in his last 14 innings. Shades of JV there.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

Well, that was an awful choice to go with my buddies to get comp tickets. (Yes, effectively "free" tickets)

Hey dougie????

I heard the buffalo wild wings bowl are changing their name to the cactus bowl. Word was brady hoke ate them out of wild wings and buffalo wild wings declined to sponsor the bowl after losing money with the wings that were eaten by mr hoke. Figuring with a name like cactus bowl, they expect hoke will not be shooting for their bowl this year.....look out chic-fil-e bowl.

 

[Cleaves2000]

Wow hope the tigers saved some of that offense for the next 3 games.

Moose? Ibanez? You guys have nuthin better in the minors? What happened to what was his name? Maxwell i think?

Tigers been putting up some pretty good offensive numbers without vmart.....jd has been a blessing...

We have players in the minors, but calling up kids from AA isn't exactly their style. Can't wait to dump Chen and Guthrie in the rotation next year though.


Ibanez really does need to GTFO though. Aoki needs to come back so the Dyson/Aoki platoon can be setup. Injuries just hitting at a funky time.

we left after the 50/50 announcement, didn't win there either.

Best batting team in majors. Has been nice to see the offense explode with VMart sitting out. Contributions from allover the lineup lately.

I will enjoy this latest Jekyll & Hyde spurt... 27-12 / 9-20 / 15-5. Who knows what comes next?

Maxwell=Ibanez without the veteran presence, needed another veteran over another clueless kid.

They did finally bring up Colon.

jd might be the pick up of the year.

Marlon Byrd reveals 4-team no-trade clause

Unlike Jonathan Papelbon, Marlon Byrd does not want to be traded by the Phillies, and the RF revealed the clubs on his 4-team no-trade clause.

I just want Ibanez gone at this point. He is distracting me from my irritation toward the 3 iron weights that start every day at 1B,3B, and DH.

 

[Fountain City Blues]

I kind of think Byrd would waive the no-trade clause considering all but Tampa are in striking distance for some kind of playoff spot.

Oh i thought maxwell did ok last yr. just seemed like royal fans liked him. Ibanez is just useless since his defense is bad and hes slow and hes 0 for his last gazzillion. I used to like him when he was in seattle and philly.

I would have to agree comletely here.

Do not want it though. Seeing a power bat in Byrd added and then seeing Gordon, Dyson and Byrd in outfield.

Rather see a West Coast plane ticket purchased.

Maxwell decided to forget how to do the one thing he was useful for: Hit LHP. Once that was over, he is now AAA fodder.

Aoki is back...


And he is... batting leadoff...


You suck, Yost. At least it doesn't have Ibanez though.




Colon sent down? We have no backup infielder now. Seriously?
