AAOP: ???

SIGN JETAH, RIVERA AND LEE! AND CRAWFORD! AND WERTH! AND MANNY! AND MORA! (aww this last one is gone)
AH, AND TRAYD DAVID WRONGZ!
FIRE SM SANDY AND HIRE FRIEDMAN!
"The one mistake we can't make is treat each year like a disparate event and try to be as good as we can that year without being mindful of the future years," Friedman said. "And so people talk a lot about 2010, that we went all in and I would agree with that from a financial standpoint. We way over-extended ourselves to field the team that we did, but we definitely didn’t from a talent standpoint. We didn’t trade off a lot of guys that are going to be key members of the 2011 and beyond."
(SM Sandy MS Paintz wouldn't pass the AA censorship)

Pulling a "Thole" and other Minor League Memories
"The 2007 Savannah Sand Gnats were not a very good team. (...) I’m sure one can make an argument that this team was one of the worst teams ever fielded in the Sally (...) Then, there was Josh Thole."

The Unwritten Rules of AA

(This is an unofficial guide to get-to-know AA. I believe one of the aspects to participate in the AA community is to understand the memes, inside jokes, stories and when members making fun of each other, all in good spirit.)
Now for those who recently joined AA, get out of my mound / lawn / basement.

No Miracle Required: A surprisingly simple plan for healing the Mets.
"The Mets could help themselves tremendously this year just by swapping them for basic league-average players, as Eric Simon, of the great Mets blog Amazin’ Avenue, has written. (His blog, like most Mets blogs these days, is a poetic, hilarious daily ode to misery.)"
Yea I know, reading nymag for sports, but slow day is slow.

Mets picking the "most overrated and overhyped" prospect in the draft
Is that how they are using the #7 overall pick?
Chris Carter: virtu and fortuna

Yes, he hit 3 HR's in 3 straight at bats. In Spring Training. Should he be in the opening day roster because of that?
(He should be considered for the opening day roster because of all the other stuff, not just 3 AB).
Note: This is not about the Oakland Athletics prospect (right-handed hitter), The X-Files creator, the safety, the wide receiver, the New Zealand politician or the Canadian television actor.

Q&A with Jaime Cevallos, the Swing Mechanic
You know, the guy who worked with Ben Zobrist.
There is more about him in the The 2010 DRaysBay Annual "Cracking the Zobrist Code"
Angels Likely Negotiating with Joel Piniero? (Angels' fan talking to Piniero agent)
Walking around Halos Heaven, I stumbled across this post. Take this as you want.
" I asked him point blank to confirm they are representing Piniero. That’s confirmed. He said it’s either "Mets or Angels"."
