Yeah true, I don't follow much in baseball outside of the Red Sox but it seems to me that they overpaid for some of their pick ups this offseason. I mean BJ Ryan has been really good but didn't he get something like 50+ mil? Same goes for AJ Burnett who had a history of injuries, and has kept up with that tradition.

Don't forget moving Bush to Milwaukee as well. Funny how so much ended up hinging on the Jays 3rd starter, Towers. His struggles just compounded the Jays weaknesses

New York Mets have a winner on their hand in Jeremy Barfield. Here's a guy that's not afraid to push his father down a flight of stairs.

Barfield taken to hospital after 18-year-old son shoves him down stairs


HOUSTON (AP) -- Former All-Star outfielder Jesse Barfield was taken to a hospital Sunday after he suffered a head injury when he was shoved down a flight of stairs by his 18-year-old son, the Houston Chronicle reported. Barfield, 46, was treated and released, but Jeremy Barfield was arrested shortly after 8 a.m., the newspaper reported.

The younger Barfield, a high school star outfielder drafted in the ninth round by the New York Mets in June, was expected to be charged with a misdemeanor, said Lt. John Martin, a spokesman for the Harris County Sheriff's Department.

we didn't have a choice. The jays aren't the most attractive place to play.

I honestly shut my t.v off after seeing Gibbons and Lilly.

Gibbons needs to go.

Whats he like the JR Rider of baseball?

Also, sweep:cool:

No punches were thrown.

lol, I love how overblown stories get.

Jays pitcher Lilly used a grappling hook on manager Gibbons last night after Gibbons claimed his pitcher was being a homosexual for not throwing strikes.

:rofl:

Really starting to miss the 2004 rotation of Pedro, Schilling, Lowe, Wakefield, and Arroyo right now. There's no telling if Pedro, Lowe, and Arroyo would still have good numbers pitching in the AL, but I'm willing to bet that they'd be better than Josh "5+ ERA" Beckett and Jason "5+ career ERA" Johnson. Good thing he's designated for assignment.

Lester's numbers were great the first few months after he was called up, but then he became human and his numbers fell. Even Papelbon has hit a slump with something like 3 BS in the past 2 weeks. I think his ERA is still below 1, but that really doesn't matter when his BS puts us another game back from the Yankees.

Even if we don't make the playoffs, which doesn't look good because the Yankees are absolutely dominant right now and it doesn't look like the White Sox and Twins are slipping either, hopefully Theo makes some moves this offseason to improve our rotation and bullpen without seriously affecting our offense. Schilling is supposed to retire this season, and I don't want Beckett as our staff ace the way he's pitching this season.

METS GOT SHAWN GREEN NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mets game is awesome, delgado and pujols each have 2 home run and a grandslam

MY GOD, I've never been happier to see one player leave a team in my life.

Hope Shawn Green goes 0-50 with the Mets so we can designate him for assignment and sign Jose Lima or another hispanic player

Shawn Green was awesome as a Jay. Then he didn't want to re-sign with them. Then he had another good year or so and then... well then he got shitty.

what happened to www.shawngreenstinks.com, that site rocked

WOOO best game of the year, beltran walk off home run, yeyer

<font color=goldenrod>AssMan you are the most negative person ever. Mets could trade Milledge for Johan Santana or something and you'd be like "ugh why deal milledge i hope johan goes 1-20 with a 5 era"

Anyways, awesome day for Mets fans. Glavine could only miss a week, Mota looked good, the Carloses are awesome, and Green can help with our shoddy outfield (Arizona's paying for him so why not?)

great day</font> :)

nah johan santana i would root for if we gave up milledge, i happen to hate shawn green and i know there is no point to this trade. floyd is gonna be off the DL soon and he'll start every day in LF, and everyone seems to think endy chavez cant start everyday so they'd play milledge in LF 4 days a week (and take him out in the 6th inning after 2 at bats every day like they always do for some reason) and put chavez in. Never should have traded Nady in the first place

I went to one of my friends softball games tonight and this huge dyke (we were calling her the manmonth) hit 4 triples (2 times with the bases loaded) and had 13 rbi's in the game...it was probably the funniest night of my life

floyd hasnt been good all year even when healthy. they had to trade nady, with D sanchez gone they were in a pinch for a reliver, X was good but replacable. as for endy, i think he can start but i would rather have him coming off the bench. green is a solid vet that can produce in a strong lienup. didnt give up much of any value and d'backs are eating some of the salary(not sure on the numbers). so why not take a chance on someone who was once very very good, shit look at valentin! the key word here is DEPTH. besides beltran no outfeilders have been that great as an everyday, so stock up, play the hot hand

annnnnnnnnnd lets go mets!

Yeah every softball team has that fat chick, but usually she's terrible.

Also ROFL at that Chone Figgins little league catch.

Pedoria playing short tonight (wearing #64 lol) THE FUTURE

wtf Adrian Beltre sucks, how the fuck did he single handedly beat us?

Nah 2nd after Shon Figgins

Manager of the year = Joe Torre

no bias
