MLB Thread Number 3, 2007

No quarrel with either Cowbell or BYH, but it's May 6. Beckett has five months to find his way to the disabled list.

Before the season, Stan Kasten compared this Nationals team to the 1991 Braves. One of the funniest things I've read all season.

 

Ugh, see this is the kind of thing that pisses me off.
Giants-Phils game, Randy Winn just hit a double, but before that the graphic on ESPN said they acquired him from the Devil Rays
Any Mariners fan can tell you he played for them for three seasons before the Giants nabbed him, though.

 

Good grief, you had to go and remind me of that miserable fubar trade... :-[

 

How about some thoughts on Tim Lincecum's first start?

I'm a Giants fan, so I'm biased. Can I get some honest opinions?

Thanks.

 

He looks nervous, to be expected.

But boy, he's got stuff out the wazoo. We'll see what happens when the league catches up to him ...

First impression: ... Damn.

 

What is this world coming to? Neifi Fucking Perez hits a double AND a home run today.

Of course, it was only against the Royals, so does it really count? (Sorry, Oz).

 

By me, Lincecum has some odd quirks in his delivery. Let us know what you think about that, if you will.

 

Yeah, all of that stuff was detailed in the Passan column in spring training. Apparently a YouTube video made waves because of his quirky delivery.

If it works for him, then by all means keep it.

Hell, look how well Prior's "perfect mechanics" have served him.

 

Who has the best season?

Clemens
Pedro
Hughes
Schmidt
Lincecum
Myers
Zambrano

Rank & add your own.

 

I've said it before - Randy Wolf

 

OUTING ALERT: Moddy is George Steinbrenner.

 

I didn't get to see Ryan Howard's home run...how far did it go?
