This.
And Derek Lowe sacking up and saying he’d actually like to pitch in Colorado.
Watching the purple row from high atop the big brown monolith on California Ave
I'd embrace the challenge...
No I’m kidding I’m gonna take a massively oversized contract from the Mets and pitch in a cathedral screw you NL West
Wait who is this Utley guy oh wait I remember him from the NLCS wait I have to face him HOW MANY TIMES?
Screw you Lowe.

Every (top notch) FA is bought up and sent to the AL
and kept out of the NL West.
I think I’m down to worrying about Manny. That’s not too bad at all.
Nah
Peavy would get rocked in Coors. He’s more dinger-prone than his numbers suggest, thanks to PetCo.

problem is
if we brought in Manny, we HAVE to put Carlos Gonzalez in CF for the defensive benefit. Him or Cory Sullivan. The additional downside is that Spilborghs becomes a 4th OF AGAIN

Can we get Lincecum?
For cheap
The Fail boat is sinking

Yes!
It’s been really hard hating the Giants recently because I love Lincecum so much.
Dear Santa,
I want a freaking World Series title for my team in purple.
Is it 2009 yet? Seriously?........Now? no......How about now?

I'd buy....
the ownership 50,000 more of those Santa blowup dolls so they have something to fill the seats come August.
For all of baseball
May the Yankees fall flat on their faces.
For the win!!

Be careful
what you ask for. The age of the hyperpower NY Yankees is over, not replaced by a bi- or multi-polar world but by an apolar world. Scary, that may be.

Something like that.

You mean....

That sorta thing?

Yeah,
though I was alluding more to stuff Niall Feguson has written, with whom I have problems (had to read him recently).

Any of you guys
Ever check out Pujols’ wikipedia entry? I guess there are always factual concerns with wikipedia but this quote is interesting
“Few big league teams were very interested in Pujols. A Colorado Rockies scout reported favorably about the young hitter, but the club took no action. The Tampa Bay Devil Rays arranged a tryout for Pujols, but it went poorly (after the team did not draft him, the scout who had found Pujols resigned).”
I’d take Pujols for Christmas – this also plays nicely into my request that the Rockies invest any slack resources into a time machine…
Oh
and here’s the link to Pujols’ wiki page, should have included it. Be forewarned – there is nothing else Rockies-relevant on the page though.
This is a better wiki entry

I've heard that as well
…from ESPN or FSN or somewhere.
I believe the Cards actually fired the scout that got them Pujols last year.

My Xmas wish
would be for the Monforts to sell to Kroneke. I think I will be disappointed again though.
by PinchHitLancePainter on Dec 24, 2008 10:39 AM MST reply actions
I'd settle for
Mark Cuban. He’s trying to buy a baseball team.
Thought Clint Hurdle should be fired before it was cool.
Christmas wish
That the Rockies had available for spending 1/10 of the money the Yankees spent during the last 2 weeks.
Seriously
Eff the Yankees. Every time you think they can’t annoy you more, they do.
Blast and botheration.

I have one
Roy Halladay for Jason Hirsh

Chase Utley for Clint Barmes

Of all the wishes to Santa on this thread
and it’s THIS one that makes me go…..Not even Santa can do that!
Thought Clint Hurdle should be fired before it was cool.
At the risk
of being a bit sappy, I got my Christmas present a few days early…on Dec. 21, my beautiful daugher and future super-Rockies fan Julia was born. Happy holidays to all!
Congrats!

My Wish
is for the Rockies to be turned into the baseball version of the Packers: community-owned.
My real wish, Rockies related.
Kevin Youkilis.
He’s not going into contract extension talks until the 2009 season starts. I just want him on the Rockies.
All I Want for Christmas
Is 88-90 wins in 2009, All-Star nods for CDI and Tulo, and many, many less RLISP this coming season. Not too much to ask is it?
Oh, and a national championship for Psyco T.
