Dewitt's Status

manny59 — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 23:25:46 -0000

I was just wondering whether the community sees Dewitt in the Dodgers future

now that Laroche is gone does that open a door for him next year?

Connor Jackson?

manny59 — Tue, 13 May 2008 21:23:04 -0000

I was just wondering if anyone has noticed Connor Jackson's fast start as well as the diamondbacks.

Do you think Jackson is going to keep this up and finally have that breakout year? or do you think he will eventually fall back down to earth

The way hes going hes is becoming a top fantasy first basemen

any input would be much appreciated

any one have any projections for the rest of the year?

Bobby Crosby

manny59 — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 02:13:26 -0000

hey guys
i was just wondering what everyone thought about Bobby Crosby and his chances of producing this year

hes been cursed with so many injury problems
and it seems as an a's fan that i keep saying to myself that this will be the year he breaks out

i mean common peter gammons said hes was gunna be the mvp haha

im getting tired of him and his "freak" injuries and so are the a's and many a's fans as well
i mean he says its bad luck but i mean comon hes been down with something constanly

but it seems like were giving him this one last shot this season

and now oakland's shallow lineup wont help his production
what kind of numbers if any do you think he will put up this year?

OT- RIP Heath Ledger

manny59 — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 03:55:15 -0000

Actor Heath Ledger, who plays the Joker in this summer's The Dark Knight, died today at around 3:30 p.m. EST. Ledger was reportedly found naked in bed in a state of cardiac arrest by a housekeeper who promptly called 911. He was found in a Manhattan apartment, in SoHo; police formerly reported that Mary-Kate Olsen was the owner of the apartment, however this info has been proven incorrect. Police do not suspect foul play. Two bottles of sleeping pills, one prescription and one over-the-counter, were found near the body and some reports had them scattered around the room. Ledger has one child, a 2-year-old daughter, Matilda Rose, with his wife the actress Michelle Williams. Ledger and Williams are said to have still been separated at the time of his death. An autopsy is now scheduled for Wednesday.

man im just in dis belief
one of my favorite actors
1979-2008

to young to even think about
my heart goes out to your family and friends
you will be missed by many

RIP
joker

Bedard and M's deal close

manny59 — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 06:56:36 -0000

i find it pretty good for the O's

"Rosenthal believes the Mariners are willing to give up Adam Jones, Jeff Clement and third baseman Marquis Tuiasosopo for Bedard. The Orioles, though, could prefer Tony Butler, Chris Tillman or Carlos Triunfel as the third player. The two pitchers might be put on the table, but we doubt the Mariners would part with Triunfel, probably not even if Clement were taken out of the deal. Clement would likely move to first base if sent to Baltimore. Some believe it's where he belongs anyway."

wuts ur take on this?

travis buck

manny59 — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 02:22:48 -0000

Im a huge A's fan and have been a huge Travis Buck fan since we drafted him.

I really got excited last year when he was called up and he looked amazing on the field but he was always day to day with his wrist problems.

I really want to get a deeper look (past and future)into Travis Buck as I am semi new to fantasy baseball

any info would be much appreciated
