I liked Deduno for the fifth starter spot but I imagine that won't help his odds. :(

PC - You remember Michael Cuddyer? You remember how your pal over on Fox said Cuddy was no good? So far in the first 3 Rockies games Cuddy has 6-hits, 4-rbi's, one 1-hr. The third game is only in the 3rd-inning and he's driven in 2 runs already! The games are in Miami and are televised here and I've been watching them.

Oh yes, he won the NL batting title last year!

Who was that other guy on Fox? I can't remember, there were so many of them, changing screen names every month, or two. Very confusing!

Cuddy was one that should have stayed for sure.

Colorado can have Morny though. I'd seen enough of him.

Kurt Suziki has been a nice surprise so far batting .500 in the the first couple games. I guess that's why he's managed to hang in the bigs all these years.

I'm trying hard to search for positives. It ain't easy right now. :gaah:

The game is over, but Cuddy got one more hit. He got 7 hits in the 3-game tilt. 1-hr, 1-2b, 4-rbis. He looks as silky-smooth as ever. Had him playing 1b. What a versatile player he is. Morny....not so good. He never recovered form the concussions, I guess.

Kevin Slowey is a Marlin also and did middle-relief last night and didn't look too bad.
LaTroy Hawkins closed the game for the Rockies last night. He looks as young as ever. He does he do this???

Cuddy another player who improved once he got away from Gardy!!!

Speaking of Gardy. Pinch hitting Kubel with no one on base in the 8th? This guy is straight mental.

If you know so much, maybe you should own the Twins. You appear to have a lot in common with them. You should be advised, however, that the owners gave Gardy a contract extension, Gardy didn't give it to himself, but, then again, you didn't know that and you don't understand how a corporation operates anyway. Getting back to you owning the Twins....hurry up and put your financing together...from what I see and hear....you probably know a lot about borrowing money. Then let the Pohlads control the money, they're good at that, and you do all the trades, scouting, etc., instead of Gardy. LOL!!

(Another guy pushing a broom who can run the plant better than the CEO. Seen plenty of them in my days! Ha, ha!!)

I think the only one who doesn't know anything around here is you.

Glad to see 90 loss seasons is enjoyable to you.

Ignorant prick.

Are you really ignorant enough to think everyone in charge is the right person for the job and nobody outside of the league or the team could possibly know what they are talking about? Do you think it works that way in every company or just sports?

Thanks again for adding absolutely nothing to the thread.

Hooray for a win! :clap:

It wasn't pretty but hey why not?

That looked like two teams who don't have pitching to me.

Well, as bad as Gardy is. He won't be the worst coach on the team as long as Vavra is around.

And the Twins lose the home opener boot. Woo!

Correia is hard to watch. He'll toss some good games but he always seems to be hanging by a thread.

Wow. 36 pitches in the first inning, four runs and no outs for Hughes.

I'm not even mad. That's amazing.

Jason Kubel seems happy to be back.
