    I believe that Jerry has made his decision!

    Too many Arizona fans are spoiled and demand division titles EVERY season without seeing the larger picture that the baseball gods just don't operate that way.

    post season tickets

    I'd be willing to bet the house that early "investment" for post season tickets is VERY light!

    Myers' whine

    Haven't seen anyone mention MM's quotes in yesterday's rag: Full story at http://www.azcentral.com/sports/diamondbacks/0827Dbacks0827.html

    Bob Brenly

    Point well taken . . . Players know where "bread is buttered" and what stats are going to get them more PT and more $$$ It's no wonder we have so many hacking at first pitches hoping to blast the ball outta the park ...

    post season tickets

    Much depends on your own financial situation... You won't be out any money, as you can apply unused tix towards next year's season tix... and if you opt not to get the season tix, there's a window to get refund. So depends on whether you can float the cash to JC & company right now....

    I find this disturbing!

    Only caught bits and pieces while making way to park... Remember him "not" denying the Lyle made the quotes that he did (indicating that Lyle is straightforward and honest) but that they weren't "in character" for him... that Lyle likely regrets the inevitable fallout his "off the cuff" remarks...

    Giants gave too much

    I'm sure the Gnats feel they have a shot at the WS this year, and if 2-month rent-a-pitcher Ponson gives them an added post season edge, it's worth it.

    On the pregame radio show they said one more trade may be coming!

    D'backs wouldn't...That is pure Fantasy League stuff!

    Peter Gammons rips the Reds and Bud Selig

    Gammons is right to rip Bud..... Baseball simply does NOT have a real Commissioner in place to uphold the integrity of the game! The Reds fire sale is the current test... and Bud is failing miserably!

    "D-Backs Prepare To Trade"

    I have Vlad on one of my fantasy teams.... It's nice to imagine.... but it ain't gonna happen in RL

    Love/Hate Relationship With Baseball

    We saw more than enough of Juan Pierre when he was with the Rockies--he "killed" us many times! I had a hard time figuring why Colorado wanted to get rid of him since he played like an All Star against us about every game.

    New rumor

    Why would D'backs be seeking another first basemen.... when Shea's best position appears to be that spot?

    Raul Mondesi to D'backs?

    More Jon Miller... He can ONLY talk about what he knows... and he doesn't know much more about BK than the east coasters that continue to harp on the 2001 WS

    Raul Mondesi to D'backs?

    Yanks bullpen completely imploded tonight against the Red Sox... George will be looking for relief

    Uecker's HOF Speech

    Looked at HOF site and two other sports sites before finding highlights excerpted at http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/news/2003/07/27/uecker_speech_ap/

    Bob Brenly's helter-skelter lineups cause carelessness

    BB's "helter skelter" lineups were ingenius in 2001 (by the end of Game 7), but look bad during losing streaks in 2003. He'll look like a genius again when the team turns in another long winning streak... :rolleyes:

    Raul Mondesi to D'backs?

    Actually he plays RF--is known for having a strong throwing arm. Matsui is getting most of the playing time out there now, so it wouldn't be surprising for the Yankees to look to move Mondesi.

    Raul Mondesi to D'backs?

    Post game Diamondtalk substitute host passed on a rumor (that he claimed had some credible sources): NY Yankees to send Mondesi to D'backs in exchange for Prinz, Dellucci, and a minor leaguer to be named. No idea exactly what his sources were... Anyone cite sources on this.... I'm sure...

    Why didn't Gonzo bunt??????

    Much better odds on Gonzo getting on, smacking the ball hard, or hitting a routine grounder to the right...(the latter which would have accomplished what so many have suggested Gonzo do by giving himself up with the bunt). Why so many have jumped on this Gonzo shoulda bunted bandwagon is...

    Brenly deserves to be fired

    The Padres also want to get a few high priced talents aboard before they open their new park next season.... Historical precedent indicates that they'll fill a LOT of seats (the first season there).

    AZ Fox Sports guy Bob Fiscella goes off

    Since Myers has failed so blatantly, it'd be hard for them to miss it...

    Joe Jr's comments

    Giles for Bautista (and someone else) WITHOUT Kendell's salary would be possible

    What in the Hell is going on?

    heh... If they were playing in the 1919 World Series, the on field evidence (from this game) would have many banned from the game for life.

    Hillenbrand Is A Butcher

    Shea is beginning to make me {{ shudder }} think the DH wouldn't be such a bad thing.... OY!

    since bautista was activated..who did we send down?

    Not only awful offensively, but the leather has turned to iron, the brains to jello, and the running game like a lost episode of The Keystone Cops. Totally embarrassing! Had this been a home game, JC might be tempted to offer refunds to the paying fans!
