    re tulo...
    • Troy Tulowitzki has always either been highly productive or hurt, so naturally, he’s been healthy this season and not hitting (although he's been dealing with a yet another leg injury of late, to be fair). But Tulow owns a 29:2 K:BB ratio, which is terrible for any hitter and is downright reprehensible for someone who plays half his games in Coors Field. Among fantasy shortstops who've played at least 25 games this season, he ranks No. 26 on a per-game basis. There's no where for his value to go but up, but Tulowitzki has been a major disappointment so far for different reasons than usual. His current 1.7 BB% is a career low, while his 24.2 K% and 11.5 SwStr% marks are career highs (the latter by a wide margin, with his career mark being 6.7%), and his defense has also graded as worse than ever. Let's hope he's just dealing with an injury that he'll soon recover from, because these signs are pretty discouraging for the soon to be 31-year-old who may very well be traded away from Coors Field in the near future.

    dbb selected by bochy as an all star game coach???
    at first i was stunned
    and then i remembered it was an odd year
    bochy's teams only do well in even years
    he's trying to lose the game so if we somehow make it to the promised land [in spite of dbb] that we won't have home field advantage
    clever tactic
    and dbb fell for it
    silly rabbit

    "Dodgers name Bruce Bochy manager" might have been even more interesting.
    Nah, Donnie's not doing so badly. Most of the time, so far. I do have fear that he will eventually make some outstanding bonehead move, but considering the BP and it's variables this year, and the starting rotation and the same, he's done OK.
    The lineups sometimes are head scratching a bit, but we'll have to see how he comes through this stretch now, with the Sfags and Cards...etc.
    Y'know , the better teams. The good teams.

    Just a classy move by Bochy and the right choice. He had one manager to choose, and it made sense to go with one of last year's division winners. Mattingly gets the nod over Williams because he has been managing longer, and Mattingly gets the nod over Matheny because Matheny just managed the all star game last year (plus Matheny has a stick up his ass when it comes to AS games).

    Looks can be deceiving. The Ultimate Warrior looked good on Monday Night Raw last year.
    He died of a heart attack the next day.

    If it wasn't for Pedro. We would not have won the 1988 World Series.

    Best part of that article:

    Don't forget

    Last season Kershaw got off to a shaky start, with a 3-2 record and 3.57 ERA. He finished 21-3 with a 1.77 ERA.

    Look out bkitches!! Kershaw is about to go ham on the league!! :cool:

    Starting with the bkitch ass VaGiants :rubhands::kickgiants:
