Buck Rogers in 1980 took over as manager of the Brewers 15-2 and that was the worst loss by a team in their manager's debut. Juan Samuel lost 11-0 in his debut..
I guess this doesn't count Dave Trembley when he lost 30-3 to the Rangers on the same day the Os announced that they removed the "interim" tag and made him the permanent manager.. |

Orioles main problem is their bullpen and part of their starting pitching since they are getting hits and scoring (although not as much this year) but their bullpen ends up like the Rangers and kills most of their potential wins. Last edited by Emperor Smeat; 06-06-2010 at 02:26 AM. |

Watching the Orioles play the Red Sox at home is so sad. It is so disgraceful how many Red Sox fans filled up that stadium. I seriously wanted to cry at the end of this game.

Mets come back from a 5-run deficit to sweep the Marlins. Sweet.
Didn't see the game though, went to go see the Binghamton Mets (Mets' AA team) play the New Britain Rock Cats (Twins' AA team). Reese Havens looks really good, possibly the 2B in 2012 (or even 2011 depending on what happens to Castillo). Kirk Nieuwenhuis also was pretty impressive. |

Assuming he doesn't start the game before, I think we can pencil Ubaldo in as the NL Starting Pitcher right now.

even the 2 runs he gave up today were kind of a fluke. Conor was just sitting on a changeup and it was long gone.

Never been too interested in the MLB draft because it's such a crap shoot and most players won't be heard from ever again. And the ones that do make it don't show up for years.
Unless you're super sexy like Mike Leake. ![]() |

You know, thinking about it...Ubaldo, Halladay, Lincecum, Wainwright, Johnson, Pelfrey, Broxton, Marmol
If all of those guys are healthy and available, the NL may actually win this year ![]() Problem is, you aren't allowed to pitch in the game if you start the Sunday beforehand. Watch like half of those guys end up pitching that last day and become ineligible for participation. |

Mets will be going SP in the draft I'm sure, think there is a guy from UNC they are looking at, name escapes me. There are some solid bats coming up through the system now but they are still strapped for starting pitching prospects.
People keep calling into WFAN saying the Mets need to push hard for Cliff Lee. But I dunno. That move may very well put them into contention right through the end of the season, but it'd mean parting with most of the top prospects in the organization, including Jenrry Mejia. The system seems like it's only just now being re-stocked, so I can't see it being worthwhile especially since Lee has said numerous times that he will test the free agent market no matter what, and the Mets won't outbid a lot of the teams trying for him. If Lee agreed to an extension I'd say go for it, but shit like that doesn't happen in mid-season. I mean look at the Brewers. Hindsight is 20/20 and all but I'm sure given how their '08 postseason went they would have rather not made the Sabathia deal. And even then, there was a more logical case for the Brewers making the trade since it'd been like 20 years between playoff appearances as opposed to 4 for the Mets. |

True. Plus without looking, weren't LaPorta's 2 main positions LF and 1B? ie: the only two places the Brewers had no vacancies

Yeah, Monstero is really up there on the list. Nova as well. Also you'll keep an eye on the guys who have seen big league action already. Melancon, Alba, Golson, Sanchez, Miranda, and Boone Logan sucks. If he comes out of the bullpen, boo him.

Watching the draft..the Os are supposed to take Machado who is a good SS and they dont have any decent SS in the entire organization. Last edited by Droford; 06-07-2010 at 07:24 PM. |

Yeah, there really isn't much to look out for in terms of prospects in AAA. Montero is obviously the big one. McAllister and Nova (starting pitchers) are the only other bigger ones. Then there's border-line guys and relievers and stuff.
