I thought Chito Martinez and Curtis Goodwin were future all-stars.

Boy was I wrong.

• Kurt Ainsworth

• Matt Riley

• Eric Dubose

I thought it'd be nice if two out of three would pan out, but OF COURSE at least one of them would be in the rotation for years.

You still may be right!

Yay for positivity!

I expected Steve Trachsel to put up like a 10+ ERA in '07. Wonk woooonk.

John Maine: Boy was I wrong!

[Dr.Mao]

I sure hope so. If only he could stay healthy..

[Hank Scorpio]

He haunts me still... Boy was I wrong! :eektf:

Good lord, that season he put up at Delmarva was RIDICULOUS. Absolutely laughable.

I thought that between Riley & Bedard we were on the path to dominance.

I also thought I'd like sushi.

Boy was I wrong.

I thought Matos coulda been a contenda...

I thought LH was gonna make people eat their words. (And if he gets another chance, I think he still might ;-)

I was just *hoping* about Bigbie, mainly 'cause he looked like Chipper in the box. (Too bad he didn't hit like him.)

And, while I never believed he would be anybody, did anybody look like more of a baseball player while failing to get hits than Tony Tarasco?

[BlackWillow]

I thought Tony Tarasco was going to catch that ball.....

Correct.

Theres something else I was wrong about. I thought this was the year of the Penn.

[Dr.Mao]

We're only half way through the season.. We'll see what happens..

This takes the cake! I think he did catch the ball! Maybe it was a hanging chad. I didn't mean to vote for Jeffrey Maier, I meant to vote for Pat Buchannan.

I'm still waiting for Luis Mercedes, winner of multiple minor league batting titles, to win his first American League one in an Orioles uniform. There's still time --the O's opening day right fielder in 1993 is only 40.

While I absolutely felt sickened, nauseated, disgusted when IMO the turncoat media forced Eddie Murray to be traded out of town following 1988, I absolutely bought the Juan Bell hype as his brother George was one of my all-time favorite players.
