OT:

dh, it's time to start a Sixer thread...hehe!

 

tsktsk bad investment talaga itong si Bedard. :thumbsdownsmiley:

[kingsville]

@ayasadai: malapit nang maging seryoso yan!

 

@jongkers: ayos lang yan.. mananalo ka pa rin sa matchup natin!

 

@master bubster: no problem.. just tell me if you want him. i know you do.. maybe it's not a matter of if but when

 

@gOg: hard to admit pero mukhang totoo nga sinabi mo kay bedard. i knew masyadong mataas ang ADP nya this year. hindi siya bust this year but underperforming might make sense.

 

@cheese: in the minor league draft yeah..

[gift_of_game]

k-ville: should've heeded the talk of his decline from the Noise...risk din naman kasi injury-prone talaga siya eh.

wasn't really expecting a dominating year out of him (it was bad enough that he got paid) but a few more QS and a little less BB would've gone a long way.

 

and wow, my Wonderboy just knocked in his 1st career walk-off.

hope there's a few more of that in the future. we're all pulling for you Roy Hobbs!

[kingsville]

^ im guessing that you read the magazine on your wonderboy being the SI cover. a feel-good story he really has.

first walk-off? seriously??

 

hmm.. yun nga siguro reason kung bakit.. yung pagiging injury-prone nya. iniisip ko kanina kung ano nga ba yung mali sa kanya.

[gift_of_game]

hindi ko pa nakita bro, pero sige hanapin ko.

it's always chilling when life imitates art.

 

just saw the highlight play again...it didn't seem like he put enough bat on the ball but he swung fast enough to send it into the stands.

[kingsville]

baka mahirapan kang maghanap, kasi last month pa yung ish nya. (i remember he's swinging a bat with a rangers uni)

maybe one of your friends has a copy.

this week, it's tiny tim and his out-of-this-world delivery.

 

hmm.. eh kung malipat kaya ng team si bedard?

baka dito ma-justify yung potential nito as an elite pitcher.

he has the stuff no doubt about it.

 

a rare blown save by k-rod..

[gift_of_game]

ah last month pa ba bro?

di bale, meron pa nyan sa public lib, check ko nalang.

thanks!

 

one other thing about Bedard: the stuff ain't working right now as his control has been out of whack.

 

edit:

nahanap ko na, meron naman pala online.

Actually haven't read the mag. Baka nakasulat doon kung bakit binitawan ng tampa bay yun..

 

Onga, seriously.. never saw a philly thread around MTC.

potential east title contenders naman din sila.

 

and K-Ho.. "locked in"

(seriously, heto na ba ang monicker natin kay ryan howard?)

[gift_of_game]

ah yun ba?

in all fairness to the Rays, they stuck with him through those lost years.

 

it was just an odd twist of fate how management left him unprotected in the Rule 5 draft (drafted by the Cubs then sold off to the Reds).

it's as if TB quit on him just when he was starting to turn it around.

 

sobrang swak talaga yung kwento niya sa "the Natural".

 

HERE's the rest of the SI article.

[kingsville]

But Cincy can let go of him because they have Jay Bruce. (kinulit pala talaga to acquire volkie )

Mas elibs ako sa ginawa ng Texas.. naniguro sila talaga.

Lakas nga uminom nito.. umabot ng 3 years ang bakasyon nya from baseball?

 

Kaya ginawa rin ng Nats ang maglagay ng scouts or somebody to watch Elijah Dukes (and his off-the-field issues).

 

Hanep, JoshBoy also has a 96mph arm?

[gift_of_game]

I'm guessing that they only made the deal because of the ruckus in the clubhouse over Hamilton getting sudden-celebrity status.

nothing against Bruce at all.

 

syempre ito namang ESPN, talagang nilapat pa yung theme ng "the Natural" nung naka-walk-off si Josh.

 

dude could---and apparently, still can---do it all.

 

a cute vid.

[Jongkers]

and K-Ho.. "locked in"

(seriously, heto na ba ang monicker natin kay ryan howard?)

 

Seriously, yes.

At least if it were up to me. I own him after all.

 

2HR, 5RBI in two days. :thumbsupsmiley:

Na-upset yata at wala siya sa all-star.

[gift_of_game]

some points to ponder from the master:

 

Buyer or seller? Beane scoffed.

 

“I’m both all the time,” he said. “I want opportunity. Nothing’s off limits.”

 

He granted the decisions are difficult. He granted they are not always popular. So it is.

 

“I’m interested in sleeping for five years,” he said. “I’m not interested in one sleepless night.”

[Jongkers]

K-Ho's on a tear... :thumbsupsmiley:

[Jongkers]

d-head is the new overall leader?

Wow! :thumbsupsmiley:
