Lucky Number 13: The Baseball Thread continues....

[BYH]

Nobody's acquiring Bedard, which is French for soft.

 

[BYH]

Suggestion: Why don't we name these threads after players who wear or wore the number, or would that be too confusing?

That's a damn good idea.

Funny, I was thinking earlier we should call the next baseball thread Pete Rose.

So this could be the Alex Cora thread?

 

[KP]

Because I am too lazy to change the station I happened to catch Eck just rip Manny for chirping about wanting the Sox to pick up the options on his contract.

 

[Bubbler]

Ah yes. Let's start the second half right ...



Edit: BYH and Junkie are going to fight me, but I don't care, the above video is the worst video of all-time.

At the end it devolves to a long gambling discussion, then after it's locked we spend 15 years denying the existence of a gambling discussion.

Speaking of Cincinnati Reds, how is it Adam Dunn has 27 home runs but is only hitting .228?
That'd amaze me if he finished with the most homers in the league but failed to reach the Mendoza line in batting. Probably won't happen, but he's only behind Ryan Howard by one at this point.

1982...Dave Kingman led NL with 37 HRs... hit .204

And to be fair, Howard's avg. isn't a whole lot better than Dunn's.

 

[Hammer Pants]

Isn't Bedard is on the DL?

Yeah.

The Douchebag List.

 

[Oz]

Isn't Bedard is on the DL?

Yes. The only way the Yankees are trading for him is if the Mariners take Richie Sexson and Darrel Rasner.

Why would the Mariners take back Sexson, who they just cut? Anyway, if the Yankees are going to catch the Rays and/or the Red Sox, and they're really serious about it this year, I would trade Ian Kennedy to gamble on Bedard.

Bedard in New York would be a trainwreck of epic proportions.

He'd make Carl Pavano look durable, and popular.

 

[Angola!]

where is pavano? any chance he'll see the bronx this summer?

 

[spnited]

where is pavano? any chance he'll see the bronx this summer?

Only if he wants to pay for a ticket

 

[Dickens Cider]

where is pavano? any chance he'll see the bronx this summer?

Sure. If he buys a ticket.

Dooley noted, A_QB, but at least Whitson showed up to work.

Well, on the road, at least.

 

[budcrew08]

Ha. Was just about to post that, spnited.

And then, four years later, Kingman hit .210 with 35 homers.

Is that the lowest batting average by a guy who the league in homers? didn't mcgwire hit like 170 one year with like 30 homers?

 

[spnited]

McGwire hit .201 with 22 HRs in 1991 and .187 with 29 HRs in 97 games in 2001, his last year
