    The Road to the Show - 2009 Edition

    His defense is described as a 'work in progress.' A couple of years ago he struggled consistently with his glove, but has improved since then. He could still use more work with it though. The organization has said they are committed to having Whitesell in the starting line-up throughout the...

    The Road to the Show - 2009 Edition

    Since coming to the D'backs for RHP Tony Pena, 1st Baseman Brandon Allen has been on fire and is #1 on this week's Baseball America's Prospect Hot Sheet: http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/prospects/prospect-hot-sheet/2009/268591.html His in 12 games are: .400 Avg, .520 OBP, .975 SLG, 7 HR...

    Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

    Michael Bay has already taken his far share of whacks at my junk throughout the years... there is a fairly big line building up though, so he would have to jump to the back. It is about a mile long, but I set up explosions every 25 feet while people wait... that should give dear old Michael...

    Twilight

    If you were an immortal vampire why on earth would you spend your days in High School taking tests, doing homework, and hanging out with kids who are so hormonally imbalanced they make steroid users seem sane?

    Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

    I hate Hollywood. They are taking everything I love and tearing it apart. First Michael Bay ruins Transformers, GI Joe might be the worst film since Manos Hands of Fate (I even heard the Director got fired during editing... his job was done and he got fired because the editor said 'you guys...

    Snacks @ Rockies 7-22

    Why is Scott Schoeneweis the lefty specialist on this team and not Clay Zavada? I will be very surprised if SS has one more month with this team. Edit: WOW... why is Hinch not out getting in the face of this umpire?!?! One time I would like to see him do something... just anything. I...

    D-Backs trade Lopez to the Brewers

    That was a 12 game rehab assignment in Single-A... hitting .349 against inferior competition does not make him a better prospect. He would have been at least three to four years older than those he was playing against. The more telling statistics are those that he put up against his own...

    Rule 5 pick James Skelton stays with Diamondbacks after minor league deal with Tigers

    Just an update on this swap of minor leaguers: James Skelton has practically dropped off of the prospect radar by batting a combined .196 with 1 HR and 19 RBIs in 311 ABs between Single-A and Double-A. He has really struggled in 68 Double-A games, batting .182, with 0 HR, and 16 RBIs. One...

    D-Backs trade Lopez to the Brewers

    I recently read that Lopez's trade value was drastically impacted because of his laziness on the field and bases (I really do not think I need to provide examples). In addition, talks between Boston and Arizona are apparently on going with a deal of Eric Byrnes for Julio Lugo. If this deal...

    Wait wait wait wait wait... Our TV team had integrity to lose?

    D-Backs trade Lopez to the Brewers

    Cole Gillespie? Yikes. He has always seemed to underachieve in the minors, leading some to question whether he will make it past being a Triple-A player. He has batted .267 in 2007 (Single-A), then .281 (next year in Double-A), and has really struggled this year by batting .242 in Triple-A...

    Dbacks @ Cards 7-18

    Haren now has an ERA of 1.96! That is nasty.

    Hey WoW Players...

    My character fell into the water surrounding the Howling Fjord a few weeks back, and now when I try to log onto my account it instantly kicks me off. I e-mailed Blizzard about it and have received nothing but a link to their message boards with numerous other people complaining of the same...

    Assassin's Creed

    If you commit too many open murders, the guards will instantly recognize you as a troublemaker, targeting you even if someone bumps into your character, if you stand in place too long, or even if you walk too close to them. Personally, I like to grab the 'lepers' and beggars and throw them into...

    Dbacks @ Reds 7/2

    I have been rooting for us to 'win' the Bryce Harper sweepstakes for a while now. And it seems like the organization is already on the bandwagon.

    Harry Potter vs Transformers

    The American public has a hard on for excessive explosions and Michael Bay provides that in place of actual plot. I would hope Harry Potter wins just because, while I am not a fan, it has a storyline and isn't just a sequence of explosion followed by larger explosion. After seeing the first...

    X-Men Origins: Wolverine

    Wow, I just saw this movie because I was given a free pass from a friend and it is far and away the worst film I have seen in quite a while. All the X-Men movies have been disappointing, but it didn't even look like anyone tried on this one. Special effects, which are supposed to be the...

    Did Upton try to steal home?

    How about, J-Up strikes out swinging, ball gets by the catcher allowing Justin to make it to first. Then he steals 2nd, 3rd and home. Now that would be something to see.

    Biggest choke in DBack history

    At this point, I would offer the entire D'backs bullpen for the Nationals Pen.

    If Johnson Doesn't Win Tonight he'll go for #300 vs. the D-Backs Next Week

    I think ever since Boggs wanted to go in as a Devil Ray, the HOF has picked and not the player. With that said, I would be shocked to not see him go in as a D'Back. He won his only championship here, only WS MVP, and 4 of his five Cy Young awards in Arizona.
