BBTN just decided Cards and Phillies are NL best
so why are we wasting our time?
Patrick Saunders: I think Kruk is lazy.
to be fair
that’s probably pretty accurate
Because we're Rockies fans.
It’s our constant duty to toil in obscurity until we can no longer be ignored.

Doesn't have to be, just needs to be with the organization
Or perhaps on the 40man if HR’s quote below is correct.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
The replacement player can be anywhere within the organization
as long as they were in the organization on August 31, and are added to the 40 man roster.
Patrick Saunders: I think Kruk is lazy.
"Players must be on a team's 25-man roster as of August 31 to be eligible for post-season play. The only exception is that a player on the 60-day disabled list may be replaced by another player from the team's 40-man roster (as of August 31) who plays the

If the player needs to be on the 40 man, Giambi’s out of luck.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
That would kinda suck.
Get Giambi for some extra rest-of-the-season insurance/power, only to have him excluded when we make it to the playoffs.
Yeah, but it just seems to me like
If you’re getting a player for the rest of the season, the organization should make the necessary moves to make sure said people will be able to work their mojo in the offseason as well.
All this assuming that you do have to be on the 40-man, not simply in the organization.
only wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_transactions#25-man_and_40-man_roster
But that’s the rule. Pretty sure about that

MSM Parody?
I wouldn’t imagine walk rates are out of line too much at Coors compared to the rest of the league. I would imagine Coors has more of an effect on IsoP than overall batting average.

Huge boost to batting average
Esp. pre-humidor. Don’t get me wrong, his OBP skills are still amazing.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
Larry Walker, .426 in his Colorado years
Not bad there, either.
Leave Dexter alone! You're lucky he even performs for you!
Fair enough
I just of Coors always having had the humidor, given I’ve only been following them for a few years.

Here's one for you stat gurus
Does Helton foul off more pitches than most? Are # of fouls tracked?

You could probably find that somewhere
But I don’t know where. ESPN has # of pitches seen in their box scores.
And yes, Helton fouls off a great deal of pitches

Was at the game.....left early
(which I hate!)……I just need to say…those Monster Nachos are….a lot of nachos. Sure, sure, I should have walked away….but I took the challenge to eat one almost all by myself…and……that was not a wise move on my part.
man up and eat, nancy.
