Good karma set up. Thanks Joe.

Seriously, How much is ESPN paying this guy? He is awful.
by rtraugs25 on Jun 29, 2008 7:04 PM CDT 0 recs
He is a doctor
So they got to pay him a lot. Probaly the only person at ESPN with a doctorate, sadly.

Joe Morgan
Probably doesn’t really remember any other bullpens. I’d name my firstborn after him if he could name four White Sux relief pitchers.

So I'm looking at the diminsions of
the Cell on Gameday… and it doesn’t look any bigger than Wrigley. How is it we have the “small” park, and they never get any bandbox comments?

The Cell is a major home run park.
ESPN’s own park factors have it as the most drastic homepark in the majors this year.

yesterday Marmol pitch 0 - 2 for a HR
Did not see the game due to blackouts here on the east coast. Was Marmol’s 0 -2 pitch near the zone or was it a good AB with a lucky swing ???
I hate HR’s against on 0 – 2 pitches
We need Marmol on fire again

We’re going to need to get some runs tonight to help out Sean, and simultaneously not give up anything dumb.

Why is Matt Murton still hear wasting a roster spot?
Because if he’s not going to play against a lefty and given the plethora of injuries in the outfield (to include the very gimpy Jim Edmonds) then I just don’t get it. Just give the No Tool Wonder his unconditional release and be done with it.
