Sorry, but less than .200 of your posts have been either informative or funny. We're going to have to let you go.

So - just 2 questions:

1. Should a player who hit .224 for the full season, and plays lesser defense than Marisnick, be let go?
2. Is an offensive line of .186/.274/.330 acceptable for any player?

All evidence to the contrary.

Doesn't that depend on what position he plays?

It's a trick question.

That's the combined line for anyone playing DH for the Astros this year.

See why I keep saying we need another bat?

The obvious solution is to teach Bagwell to throw with his left arm and get him to play CF.

No, dammit.  Bagwell is playing 3b and shooting the ball out his ass across the diamond.

How the fuck did I get dragged into that shit show?  That's a fine how do you do at 6:00 am.  A couple of points:

1.  My irrational love of Marisnick is well documented.
2.  Neil, I *am* the smartest guy in whatever room I'm in.
3.  I'm currently in Indonesia, not India.
4.  I'm keeping a list of everyone who earned a punch in the nuts, so if you're on the list...

Sumatra is an interesting place.  It's mostly monkeys eating mangoes and masturbating.  It's kind of how I pictured a TZ gathering at your house would be.

I lived in Balikpapan for 18 months.  I loved it there.  I'd probably still be there if I could have gotten a work permit extension out of Pertamina.  Enjoy yourself.
