"Ramirez is expected to attribute the test results to medication received from a doctor for a personal medical issue." - Mel Profit May 7, 09:14 4

- I saw that match. Drogba is such a child. -- nm - Loyola May 7, 09:16 1
  - well, he is a soccer player, right? - znufrii May 7, 09:24
- It was a mistake to have Ovrebo referee this game after what happened last time. - Mop (236 lbs) May 7, 09:12
I'd like to do the Chris Davis for Carlos Pena deal now...thank you. - Mel Profit May 7, 09:05 9
- Wait. You turned down Carlos Pena for Chris Davis straight up? (nm) - musubi May 7, 09:10 4
  - There were other moving parts as well. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:10 2
    - I hope so. On its face, that sounds like sheer madness. (nm) - musubi May 7, 09:13 1
      - I would have clicked "accept" so fast, my finger would have broke. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:16
  - re-tard. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:10

    - habe you looked at Pena's last 2 seasons? - groiny May 7, 09:09 1
      - Yeah, at worst, you're getting 30 homers from Pena, even with the .240ish average. -- nm - Will Hunting May 7, 09:10

Manny tested positive for Performance enhanchers? -- (link) - amoxy May 7, 08:55 30
- I don't fully understand how someone who has avoided suspicion so thoroughly through all this would bother doing it now, at this point in his career. - TFox May 7, 09:10 18
  - Your mistake is assuming that he'd just start right now. (nm) - musubi May 7, 09:11 17
    - right. -- nm - Don Homer May 7, 09:13
    - Almost doesn't matter. If he made it without getting fingered, good on you. Time to stop. -- nm - TFox May 7, 09:12 15
      - He bulked up back in cleveland, he's made *huge* paydays without being caught. - musubi May 7, 09:15 5
        
        It is harder to not get caught now. Much harder. No clue why anyone whose legacy is nearly complete would continue. - TFox May 7, 09:16 4
        
        Does this *really* change anything about Manny's legacy? - musubi May 7, 09:22 2
        
        If Palemeiro's out of the Hall of Fame with 3000 hits, Manny's done for with this as well. - Will Hunting May 7, 09:23
        
        Not already tarnished. Or, not tarnished to the degree of "cheater". Just "crazy". -- nm - TFox May 7, 09:23
        
        Has Manny *EVER* impressed you with his intellect? -- nm - Will Hunting May 7, 09:18
      - Well, then he could never actually get that massive payday he boned Boston for. -- nm - Will Hunting May 7, 09:13 8
        
        What I am saying is, maybe he ate enough roids to kill New Jersey for the last decade. Doesn't matter; we didn't know. - TFox May 7, 09:14 7
        
        That's not what you said about four posts up. (nm) - musubi May 7, 09:17 [Backboard] 2
        
        It's exactly what I said. He avoided suspicion, whether he was using or not, and then bothered to do it now. - TFox May 7, 09:18 1
        
        (I'm going to lunch, so if musubi continues being confused, someone help him. I'm hungry.) -- nm - TFox May 7, 09:19
        
        You're assuming these guys are only in it for the 'one score'. - Will Hunting May 7, 09:16 3
        
        The difference being, what if before the town only had one drunk cop, and now they have 30 sober ones? - TFox May 7, 09:17 2
        
        A more appropriate example would a town with 0 cops getting 2. Getting caught is much more likely, but still not *very* likely. (nm) - musubi May 7, 09:24
        
        Do what ARod did, find a new drug. -- nm - Will Hunting May 7, 09:18
- thats great - Danedukenuuk May 7, 09:02 6
  - Oh no you did not go there. Not with the best athlete of all time. -- nm - DreadPR May 7, 09:09 3
    - Jim Thorpe? - Will Hunting May 7, 09:10 2
      - Jim thorpe would be the best athlete of the first half of the 20 century (or 7th all time according to ESPN) - DreadPR May 7, 09:18
      - of course he was clean what supid and premature conclution to i made .... -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 7, 09:16
  - You Europeans just can't get over Lance Armstrong, can you? - Mop (236 lbs) May 7, 09:06 1
    - some europeans love him mostly thoose in Kazakhstan - Danedukenuuk May 7, 09:13
- Wow. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:00
- See, 4yrs / 100mil would give you ample time to get your money's worth from this! -- nm - Scott Boras May 7, 08:56
- Viagra? -- nm - Mop (236 lbs) May 7, 08:56
- Jeri Curl? nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 08:55
Poor, silly Tru. If you want to compare Johan and Greinke, do it for real: - musubi May 7, 08:53 34
- Halladay. -- nm - Beaker May 7, 08:58 7
  - not if the season ended today. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:05 6
    - No, not today, but I'm starting to think he makes a run at 25 wins. His ERA will come down some. Grienke's will go up. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 09:16 5
      - Even if his ERA stays where it is, he would win it. - groiny May 7, 09:17 4
        
        There's 2 or 3 other guys in the mix. Bedard looks healthy; Felix is there. - Will Hunting May 7, 09:22 1
        
        right now, it is a 2 man race. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:24
        
        He's absolutely the front runner, but it's the Kentucky Derby here...No one wins the Cy Young on the first turn. (April) - Name Withheld By Request May 7, 09:20 1
        
        Exactly...let's see where he is the 2nd and 3rd time through the league. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:21
- I honestly think time Greinke is done, we'll be talking about him in that class. - Will Hunting May 7, 08:57 12
  - [deleted] 6
    - "The Marlins are for *real*!" - Will Hunting si May 7, 09:11
    - I've been a Greinke fan since about 2003. - Will Hunting May 7, 09:02 2
      - That's a rather bold statement. -- nm - Don Homer May 7, 09:03 1
        
        seriously, when did he start pitching for the Orioles??? nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:05
    - And Fernando was going to be the best ever. -- nm - Don Homer May 7, 09:02
    - Seriously. I think it's a great story and all, and I hope the kid does well, but in reality, it's just one fantastic month. - musubi May 7, 09:01
  - I'll wager you any ammount of money that, barring catastrauphic injury, Greinke will never match Johan's career numbers. (nm) - musubi May 7, 08:59
  - yeah, a pitcher who gets bored on the mound and just wants to find a way to leave the game - tRuMaN May 7, 08:59
  - He was so awful one season he single-handedly ruined my one fantasy team. -- nm - Don Homer May 7, 08:58 2
    - If your fantasy team can be ruined by one player, you're not doing it right. -- nm - nubby May 7, 09:00 1
      - I'm exaggerating a bit, obviously. But he sure didn't help. -- nm - Don Homer May 7, 09:01
- anw ait til grienke starts wearing dresses in the locker room again. - groiny May 7, 08:54 6
  - this sounds like a good story. Spill. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:01 5
    - not really, he just went on mental leave for too much pressure. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:07 4
      - Yeah, he had a pretty serious social anxiety disorder.... - Will Hunting May 7, 09:08 2
        
        I dont know, after see pics of his girl - tRuMaN May 7, 09:11 1
        
        He was the golden child at 20 years old in that clubhouse. - Will Hunting May 7, 09:14
      - I already knew that. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:08
- give johan another month to fall apart and be worthless - tRuMaN May 7, 08:54 5
  - It's like you don't know what regression to the mean is. - musubi May 7, 08:56 3
    - see, this is the problem, and st knows it, - tRuMaN May 7, 08:58 2
      - Yeah, I do have this problem of relying on more than 1 months' worth of stats. Stupid me. (nm) - musubi May 7, 09:00 1
        
        get em moose. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:01

- I'm waiting for Pujols or Papi to get fingered as well. -- nm - Don Homer May 7, 08:59 7
  - I don't think you're gonna get it on Pujols. -- nm - Jim May 7, 09:10
  - I'm telling ST (again)...if Papi gets outed as a Juicer...I'm done with the sport. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:03 3
    - ditto for me re: Jeter. -- nm - znufrii May 7, 09:16
    - Good luck. - musubi May 7, 09:09 1

  - [deleted] 8
    - Him and Papi have at least earned the right to work through their slumps - Will Hunting May 7, 08:55 7
      - I loathe the howling going on in this town over Papi. -- nm - Mel Profit May 7, 09:04 6
        
        he looks like shit out there. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 09:08 5
