My issue with Giambi is saying he couldn't play in a game in the 03 World Series then coming off the bench and hitting a homer. He was pretty underrated as a Yankee though as a whole actually, don't know why people consider him a bust.

I thought he was actually dying at one while he was in PinStripes. Turns out the withdrawal from Roids is quite the bidge. Not sure what the circumstances were (keep in mind, I notmally loathe The Yankees)with his pinch hit homer. Was he hurt? Or suspended? I don't remember that.( But my third baseman has a ring from '03. )

 

[Ritzarmy]

If that's what majority wants im all for it.

Thoughts everyone on voting?

When I was in junior high 8th grade I think I wanted to pitch both left handed and right handed in the same game but for some reason which I don't remember they wouldn't let me.

As far as I know, you can't switch during an ab. But you can hitter, to hitter. Now that could be different state to state, or I could be wrong altogether. Can you imagine what kind of numbers a guy could put up if he pitched from both sides!?! I have a hard time catching a ball with my right hand. I can play catch throwing lefthanded, but I have to go all Jim Abbott and put the glove on my left hand too.

Round 1
Johnny vs Clayton = Winner is
Nos vs Nava = Winner is
500 vs Ritz = Winner is
Smitty vs UK = Winner is

Everyone can vote for themselves if they like, we have had a few times where someone voted for the team they were playing against, Ritz, Johnny and me I believe...

I remember talking to my coach about it and he said I couldn't im not sure I ever got a reason. It was Minnesota what the hell did they know!

I think we need to lay out pitching matchups, lineups and what not. Im going Tom Seaver Game 1. Ricky, Cobb, Robinson, Cabrera, Greenberg, Gehringer, Molitor, Campenella, Larkin. I think. Im game to bicker back and forth here and then let outside voting have a say.

I grew up with an autographed poster of Jim on my wall. (Larkin was a homer pick too. Had to stop myself from taking Sabo.). No disrespect was intended. (He hit a homer in high school. That was also mentioned by one of my kids

I just look at head to head by positions then score it that way. The most points wins. Catcher vs catcher, 1st base vs 1st base, and at the end I look at whose left and do bench vs bench for a point. That's just how I do my voting on matchups.

I bet your coach knew how to hit flys in the parking lot! Since there was snow on the field. Right!?!

Hadnt thought about it like that. I like it. But I do like to bicker...

That's a shocker I didn't know about

I didn't think you meant any disrespect, it just struck me funny...

I was writing a post about doing in that way at work today but the freakin power went out and I got booted and didn't have time to start over.

I was thinking about taking Appier. He was a great pitcher for a while, look at his 90-97 stats. Arguably the best pitcher not named "Greg Maddux" or "Roger Clemens" during that stretch), but I needed another lefty. And Langston himself was a pretty darn good pitcher.

Agreed, I actually thought about Appier too, hated when the Twins faced him, he seemed to own us.

He said he was hurt and couldn't play then came in and hit a pinch hit homer.

Are we supposed to be posting lineups somewhere?

Ritz thought we could just go to the full teams thread and vote based on that...
