Baseball: What was the best move in the off-season

Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

Ia m not imllyingm


heck, did I type that? :lol: :lol: :lol:


traded Esteban Loiza for Jose Contreras


Well, Loaiza did well last year, but I still feel we uncharacteristically overpaid for him, being 34 and all.


traded Foulke for Billy friggin' Koch!


Interesting factoid about Billy Koch: "Billy and his wife paid fellow pitcher Justin Miller $1500 to get "I Love Billy Koch" tattooed on his ass." :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That post proves why Dweeber is an idiot, and weird :lol:

I stopped following baseball closely a couple years ago and now I have no idea who's where, except for the Jays :oops:

:x Stop the winking! Why the hell would you wink after saying that? It deserves this smiley :crazy: , or even this one :razz: , or if you want to be really lame, this one :roll: but not the wink. I was joking, c'mon Dweaver!

:lol: I was counter-joking as always. :lol:

And I use the wink to say something in the likes of ' Do you get my point? Eh, do you? '

It ain't no counter-joke if you wink, that gives away the joking part of it. It's much better with teh crazy eyes.

How dare you use 'eh' with a Canadian! I'd get the point without the 'eh' wink :x

If I wanted to tease you for your heritage I would write 'aboot' instead of 'about'. :wink: :roll: :lol: :D :twisted: 8-)

Why? I don't say 'aboot'. I'll bet neither do Cy, or Cam, or any other Canadian here.

Someone needs to ban Dweaver from using smileys.

Izturis is just fine... His average could be better, but he is still one of the best defensive shortstops around. They overpaid for Furcal, in my opinion, and they actually got another SS, Nomy, who they intend to play at 1B. Go figure.

Yup. From what I've read this guy is even more of a ticking bomb than Ron Artest. That 'kick in the groin' incident with the team's trainer was hilarious... unless you're the trainer.
