I still am.

Favorite

Player

Ever

Posey, all things considered, will not supplant Neuschler on that list. He is too melba toast. But with the bat? He just might be...

Bonds, for me, is in his own league. We'll see if Posey can show the gamer, carry the team on his back, attitude that Will did.

Yeah I saw that....ok. I guess that's funny.

I just don't usually think of pitchers hitting unless they are good at it, so he came to mind. The sucky ones I usually forget.

OBP Twins

WOW... On MLB At Bat, Huff had one right down the middle on that one. Were the Rox just ump-jacked?

OK fair enough. Livan Hernandez also a stud with the bat.

But Sanchez sucks so hard I want to try to come up with someone worse, and I don't think it's possible.

Great AB by Huff again to put De La Rosa in the stretch. He is nearing 100 pitches as well.

FACK

 

[SFGRTB]

No luck, again.

 

[msgkings322]

Hmmm. Posey still better than the Thrill? ;-)

 

[calsnowskier]

I still remember the game (I think it was '87 vs Cards??) Where Caveman got the win AND hit a big jack to win the game...

He had a SERIOUS bat...

 

[SFGRTB]

Uribe has thrown out Mora all 3 AB's. He's pulling the ball a bit too much.

ESPN board died 2 innings ago. So weird. Like, zero posts.

What about Daniel Cabrera?

Never seen him hit, but he must have one huge loop in his swing. (0-for-21 career, 19 strikeouts)

This ad for a $23.74 iPad is quite enticing.

I got one as a gift a couple of weeks ago. Pretty cool device.

Pads lost 5th in a row. This is their slump. We have to make a move.

Thrill is not my fave because his playing ability (although he was a stud Giant).

His attitude and personality and defense and post Card fight interview all set the table for him being my fave for life. I can not imagine anyone replacing him.

Bonds was clearly the best player I saw play. No one will likely ever replace him in that seat.

But we are not talking best player. We are talking favorite player.

I'm gonna be playing poker with him at a charity event in October.

Wow. A contender for sure.
