UndertheHalo

i got tickets to games 1 and 2 sitting on the ducks shoot twice side, they are basically gone. I had to get mine resale. Overpriced as all **** also.

yea i really hope this is not embarrassing for the Ducks.

you know, I dont really have the disdain for the Dodgers that I have for the Kings. Some Kings fans can be so ****ing obnoxious, so that definitely fuels my sentiments. I love the Ducks and Angels pretty equally so... yea. I think i'd feel better about beating the damn A's in the playoffs then the Dodgers to be honest. Or the Red Sox, I'd say that when we swept the BoSox out that would be more my current most satisfying sports moment. Really though, beating Kings would been pretty close to topping that. I really cant stand the Kings. Just my personal thing.

Truly, there is almost nothing that would be bring me more satisfaction then the Ducks beating the Kings in the Stanley Cup Playoffs

im sure you'd also like to not waste another diaper

Shuck does what he does.

The surgically enhanced eyes !

Aybar occasionally excels at bunting in low value situations.

Oh thats whats going on. I guess if we could win more of those we might be leading the division. Practice makes perfect I guess.

its bad but we should have way more runs in the first place.

when one shits themselves, what does this sensation feel like ?

if we lose this game (and hopefully we dont) its not because of the bullpen its because of the continuous ridiculous amount of fail with RISP

Pretty sure the festivities are being planned for the Pujols bobblehead night.

Well, Hector almost pitched himself out of trouble

It is upsetting that Aybar is at bat in this situation

yea, it would be nice to get hot and get on a little streak but Im happy that we are at least better then last years train wreck (so far)

real good to see Salas pitching better. I hope to see this trend continue.

was he not also hurt in 2012 ? I could be wrong but I swear it seems that way. Anyway David Freese has had a "good" season more recently. You make a good point about Trout and his possible desire to play CF. He seemed unhappy with not being the CF last year.

are we not familiar with the Peter Gammon Red Sox boner ?

Tony Reagins destroyed our farm system with horrible trades. We have been unable to replenish due to FA acquisitions. Suggesting that the club cant scout .... just crazy negativity in my mind. Its not like we're the Pirates abjectly failing in the draft for decades. Yea but what makes you think that any organization would part with a "good" pitching prospect for Peter Bourjos. Just a wild over valuation of Peter dude. The guy has proven little other then being a quick plus defender at the MLB level. Plus he has injury issues. Personally I could see maybe a proven guy like Kendrick getting something from an asset rich club or maybe Aybar since for some reason he seems to be regarded as decent player (i guess because he's a SS and good ones are not plentiful)

I just remember when this guys head looked like it was gonna explode talking about how Hanley Ramirez was going to "electrify" Fenway. Good times.

Stradling, to be clear I was only suggesting that Bourjous plus tool of speed is what primarily contributes to his strong defensive skills. Obviously he has good instincts as well. The comment was kind of tongue in cheek. Im not suggesting that Bourjous was not an asset. In truth I liked Peter, I just think that we should not over state his value.

hindsight is always 20/20 we needed a 3b. David Freese was hurt last year and batted .262, the previous year he was an all star. Why is it so outrageous to suggest that Bourjous and Freese are kinda similar players ? We traded from depth in an attempt to fill a hole. We are not yet a month into the season, it doesnt look like a plan that will pan out right now but maybe in August we'll forget we were arguing about this. My point is, that the idea behind the trade was not a bad one. Why do we assume that other better deals were just not explored and left on the table. We had been trying to trade Bourjous in the past. Maybe he just is not as valuable as some of you are suggesting.

Do you really think that Kole Calhoun should have been our every day DH ? I mean thats a plan i suppose. I guess my main thing is that I dont believe Bourjos was going to morph into this great player that can magically stay healthy and reach his promised potential. Peter had several shots here and it never worked out for a multitude of reasons. Staying healthy is a thing in my mind. Peter could not do it. I personally do not think he's going to magically not break down in St. Louis and suddenly finally achieve his baseball nirvana. Freese in some ways is a similar player. We basically swapped problems in my mind. As I said, I don't know about Grichuck...

So he's fast....
