Only one thing I can think of to sum this up

Hope he’s alright, hell of a talent.

Mechanics

All sorts of talk on MLB Network Radio about Strasburg’s mechanics. Specifically the Inverted W was brought up, also comparisons to Prior and Wood. Where was all this talk before he got injured?

by Excel Hearts Choi on Jul 29, 2010 11:54 AM CDT reply actions  

there was a lot of this talk before he was drafted

but he’s still a talent you take a chance on.

A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.

Ah HA!

He is mortal!

i think they are being extremely cautious more than anything

they were about to shut him down soon once he reaches his innings limit so now he’ll most likely just finish up a little later

by Elvis4Prez on Jul 29, 2010 11:58 AM CDT reply actions  

I bet you're right

It was probably just an itch, but they quarantined him, and paid hundredsd of thousands to have doctors examine him.

Its Mark Prior all over again!!!

By 2028, Mark Teixeira will be in the HOF.

Seems alot like what happened to derek holland

i wouldn’t be suprised if derek had issues warming up, considering his velocity was so low.

Rangers FTW

Since when do I give two shits for Strasberg?

Hell, he’s not even on my fantasy league team.

I’ve got bigger fish to fry.

Just wondering

What’s with the overall negativity around here regarding the possible acquisition of Cantu?

by JayKim41 on Jul 29, 2010 12:40 PM CDT up reply actions  

could cost too much in prospects...b/c of money left on his contract

CanNOT

.259 .308 .408 slash line with increased K’s and decreased BB’s.

Also, if we are “getting closer” it means we’re adding in additional prospects.

Cantu just isn’t worth that (tbd what we actually give up, obviously).

The only way I support the acquistion

Is if he’s merely here to have Arias sent down and to be our RH bench bat.

Even if we get a player like Prince or Dunn, we will have fixed our 1b option, but not our need for a RH bench bat.

Commandant Buckles

My quick prediction of his tenure in Baltimore:

The O’s should get a little better over the next couple years, then, as Buck tries to assert himself as the GM, trainer, pitching coach, and anything else he can, he’ll piss off half the team, and Angelos will fire him.

by RCCook on Jul 29, 2010 1:18 PM CDT up reply actions  

Bad hire.

That team should be infusing the young talent, not hiring a manager who will block that talent.

Yep, as I said elsewhere, not exactly a match made in heaven
