[Player Perspective: Colton Cowser]

1 hour ago, Roll Tide said:

For me it wasn’t just that he didn’t hit. I thought he looked poor in the OF as well.

I agree with this, he looked lost all around. That said, I'm with the patient approach given his track record.
This team is still a couple years away from being fully cooked and Cowser could be a significant part of the final product.

[I’m Celebrating Twenty (Plus?) Years of Hanging Out!]

I first posted on OH in 1997 and I know you, Frobby, were here long before 2003.

[Kjerstad and Baker called up]

He missed strike three by six inches.

[Santander]

It might just be wishful thinking on my part, but his batting stance reminds me of Albert Belle.

[Random Thoughts]

If I owned a football team I would get one of those 600 pound sumo dudes to play center on 4th and 1.

I wonder if God farts when he sneezes.

[A picture is worth a thousand words.]

I don't know how mine got deleted.

[Selling baseball cards]

I have a Nolan Ryan rookie card but a dealer said it's worthless because it was in my guest house when it burned several years ago and smells like smoke. No damage to the card, just the smell. Is this correct?

Big Papi and Reynolds;

And now:

[A picture is worth a thousand words.]

Is this the second time he's been in Berlin?

Yes, he was also there in '36

This is so special.

Yeah, Heath Ledger. One of the great actor's of his generation. Truly a terrible tragedy.

Before you start getting all concerned, this is the same guy who told me I was nothing more than a lifeguard with a gun.

I don't get it, where is the confusion?

[Jen Royle is the gift that keeps giving on Twitter]

Waiting for her to tweet a picture of herself in her underwear

I think Jen has written the book on things NOT to do to endear yourself to your fan base.

I could be endeared by a picture of her in her underwear.:002_sdrool:

[Injuries happen]

2010 Yankees:

Rodriguez 14 games

Granderson 24 games

Thames 18 games

Johnson 134 games

Pettitte 57 games

Mitre 56 games

Marte 78 games

Aceves 133 games

Total: 190 games offense, 57 games starting pitchers, 267 games bullpen

Shouldn't Johnson come with some sort of built-in adjustment for games missed?

Seriously, this is exactly why we need to add a quality veteran starter and at least one more reliever.

[Random Thoughts]

Hey guys, have you ever gotten a chill while standing at the toilet?

They have a new medicine for that, I think it's called pennicillian? Something like that.

[History and Biographies]

Colleen McCullough wrote a series of seven (?) books on the end of the Roman Republic. Starting with Marius, going through Caesar, and ending with Octavian. Historical fiction but she never strays far from the truth. Fascinating stuff and an easy read.

I'm glad I'm not a midget.
