Rick Ankiel
Fri Feb 7, 2014 11:07 pm Rick Ankiel stated in an interview on Sirius XM on Friday that he's still open to playing in 2014.
Fantasy Source Spin: The free agent outfielder hasn't heard from any interested teams, but has yet to give up hope. At this point, he will have to settle for a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training, but in the right destination he could compete for a bench spot on a team in need of left-handed power.

Thu Dec 19, 2013 12:04 pm Chris Cotillo of MLB Daily Dish reports that free agent Rick Ankiel is willing to extend his career in 2014, even if that involves taking a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel, 34, spent the 2013 season with the Astros and Mets, racking up a paltry 136 plate appearances with a .657 OPS to show for it. In fact, he has posted a sub-.700 OPS in each of the past three seasons. Beyond occasional power, Ankiel doesn't bring much to the field, but on a risk-free minor league deal, some teams could do worse.

Thu Jun 13, 2013 9:22 am Rick Ankiel has elected to become a free agent.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel was designated for assignment by the Mets last week after batting just .182/.239/.364 with 25 strikeouts in 71 plate appearances. The 33-year-old former pitcher will presumably try to latch on with a new organization.
Sat Jun 8, 2013 8:28 pm The Mets are expected to designate Rick Ankiel for assignment before Sunday's game in order to make room on the roster for Kirk Nieuwenhuis.
Fantasy Source Spin: The 33-year-old outfielder is hitting just .188/.235/.422 with seven homers, 18 RBI and 60 strikeouts through 128 at-bats on the season after an 0-for-4 effort on Saturday. After being dismissed by the Astros and Mets, he'll likely have to settle for a minor league deal elsewhere.

Sat Jun 8, 2013 8:28 pm Mets designated OF Rick Ankiel for assignment.
Fantasy Source Spin: The 33-year-old went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts Saturday in his final game with the Mets and is now batting just .188/.235/.422 with 60 strikeouts in 45 games this season between New York and Washington. He will try to latch on as a backup outfielder with a new team.
Fri May 31, 2013 9:51 pm Rick Ankiel went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Friday's loss to the Marlins.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel has predictably slowed down after his hot start with New York, collecting just two hits in his last 22 at-bats. Still, the Mets figure to keep running him out there in center field against right-handers for the time being. He's not really an option outside of deeper NL-only leagues.
Wed May 22, 2013 4:23 pm Rick Ankiel tripled and doubled twice against the Reds on Wednesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: The triple should have been a double, too, but Xavier Paul fell down in left field twice on the play. Ankiel is now 10-for-31 with seven extra-base hits as a member of the Mets. It probably won't last, but it's nice to see him doing well. His career was in danger of being over when the Astros let him go.
Sat May 18, 2013 4:06 pm Rick Ankiel went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer Saturday against the Cubs.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel is 6-for-20 (.300) with two homers, four RBI and six strikeouts since joining the Mets earlier this week. The 33-year-old is not going to hit for a high batting average, but he has enough pop to be useful in NL-only leagues as long as he gets regular at-bats in center field.
Wed May 15, 2013 11:30 pm Rick Ankiel went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI but the Mets fell to the Cardinals on Wednesday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel singled in the top of the second inning and then hit a game-tying two-run homer in the top of the seventh. But the Mets wound up losing their third straight game in St. Louis. Ankiel is 2-for-8 since joining New York.
Mon May 13, 2013 4:30 pm Mets manager Terry Collins said Monday that Rick Ankiel and Juan Lagares will platoon in center field.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel will start against right-handed pitchers while Lagares will play against southpaws. We're not expecting much in the way of batting average, but Ankiel could provide enough pop to hold some value in NL-only formats.

Mon May 13, 2013 3:52 pm Mets signed OF Rick Ankiel to a one-year contract.
Fantasy Source Spin: CBS Sports' Jon Heyman was the first to report that the two sides were talking. Ankiel batted just .194 with 35 strikeouts in 65 plate appearances before getting released last week by the Astros, but he has some power and a big arm. The 33-year-old should see semi-regular playing time in a New York outfield that lacks talent. He's starting in center field Monday night against the Cardinals in St. Louis.
Source: Adam Rubin on Twitter
Mon May 13, 2013 3:17 pm Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reports that the Mets are "in talks on a deal" with outfielder Rick Ankiel.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel was released by the Astros last week after batting .194 with a .231 on-base percentage and 35 strikeouts over 65 plate appearances. He did hit five homers, and could add some needed pop to the Mets' roster.
Source: CBS Sports
Thu May 9, 2013 4:44 pm Astros released OF Rick Ankiel.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel cleared waivers after being designated for assignment earlier this week. While the 33-year-old had five homers, he was hitting just .194/.231/.484 with an ugly 35/3 K/BB ratio. It's telling that the worst team in baseball didn't have use for him anymore, so he could struggle to find another opportunity with an MLB club.
Mon May 6, 2013 6:19 pm Astros designated OF Rick Ankiel for assignment.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel has banged out five home runs this season, but he's hit an ugly .194/.231/.484 overall and has a 3/35 BB/K ratio. He'll be able to catch on elsewhere, but he might have to work his way up through the minors first. The Astros also designated Fernando Martinez for assignment Monday.
Mon Apr 22, 2013 11:30 pm Rick Ankiel hit his fifth home run of the season Monday against the Mariners.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel accounted for all of the Astros' offense on the night, as he took Carter Capps deep for a solo shot in the seventh. The veteran outfielder is hitting just .237 with an ugly 24/0 K/BB ratio, but five of his nine hits have been home runs. He also holds a .921 OPS. Keep running him out there in AL-only leagues, though the rebuilding Astros could change course at any time.
Fri Apr 19, 2013 11:20 pm Rick Ankiel belted his fourth homer of the season, helping to power the Astros to a 3-2 victory over the Indians on Friday.
Fantasy Source Spin: The homer came as part of back-to-back shots with J.D. Martinez off Brett Myers in the second inning. After his 1-for-3 night, Ankiel has the unusual .194/.194/.613 line on the season. He has just six hits, with four of them being home runs, and a double as well. He's now driven in 10 runs on the season and could be worth a look in NL-only and deeper mixed leagues as a cheap source of power.
Wed Apr 17, 2013 7:05 pm Rick Ankiel delivered his second pinch-hit homer of the season Wednesday in the ninth inning against the A's.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel took Grant Balfour deep for his third homer in 28 at-bats this season. Unfortunately, he has just two other hits along with the homers and a crazy 20/0 K/BB ratio. It'll be interesting to see how long he lasts in Houston.
Sun Mar 31, 2013 11:19 pm Pinch-hitter Rick Ankiel delivered a three-run homer off Derek Lowe in the bottom of the sixth as the Astros beat the Rangers 8-2 on Sunday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Astros manager Bo Porter has said Ankiel is his regular right fielder, but he still had him on the bench against a lefty tonight. No matter, Ankiel delivered his first ever Opening Day hit after replacing Brandon Barnes in the sixth, and it left the yard for the first home run of the 2013 season. Lowe had just replaced Matt Harrison in the game, as Ron Washington for some reason bypassed all of his better righties. Ankiel will definitely be in the lineup for the final two games of the series.
Sun Mar 31, 2013 2:29 pm Astros purchased the contract of OF Rick Ankiel from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel has earned the right field job for the 'Stros by batting .413/.463/.826 with four homers this spring. He's no safe bet to start there against righties all season, but it's possible he'll have AL-only value.
Thu Mar 28, 2013 4:42 pm Rick Ankiel homered, doubled and drove in four runs in the Astros' 11-4 rout of the Tigers on Thursday.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel has won the Astros' right field job with a .432 average and four homers in 45 at-bats this spring. It's highly unlikely that he'll hit for average in the regular season, but he might surprise with decent power numbers. Of course, that would require staying healthy, something that's always been a problem for him.
Sat Mar 23, 2013 5:38 pm Rick Ankiel came off the bench to supply the Astros' only two hits -- a double and a homer -- Saturday against the Braves.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel doubled off Jordan Walden and then homered off Craig Kimbrel in the ninth. The rest of the Astros combined to go 0-for-27. Ankiel appears likely to open the season as Houston's right fielder against right-handers.
Thu Feb 28, 2013 5:52 pm Rick Ankiel went 2-for-2 with a home run Thursday as the Astros topped a Yankees split-squad 7-6.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel is 6-for-9 with three extra-base hits as he attempts to win a spot in Houston's outfield. He'll likely be a starter in center or right if he can remain hot all spring. As is, Justin Maxwell is the only Astros outfielder who can be safely penciled into the lineup.
Sat Feb 9, 2013 11:35 pm According to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com, Rick Ankiel will earn $750,000 if he makes the Astros roster out of spring training.
Fantasy Source Spin: He can also earn additional incentives of $75,000 for reaching 200 plate appearances to $150,000 for 550 plate appearances. The veteran outfielder would provide a solid left-handed power source and veteran leadership to a young Astros clubhouse.
Source: Brian McTaggart on Twitter
Sat Jan 26, 2013 7:38 pm Astros manager Bo Porter fully believes that Rick Ankiel will earn a spot on the Opening Day roster, provided he performs the way that he's capable of.
Fantasy Source Spin: Porter served as the Nationals' third base coach for two seasons that Ankiel was there, so he's very familiar with the veteran outfielder. Ankiel would provide much needed left-handed power and veteran leadership to a very young Astros clubhouse.
Source: CSN Houston
Thu Jan 17, 2013 5:03 pm Astros signed OF Rick Ankiel to a minor league contract with a spring training invite.
Fantasy Source Spin: Ankiel, 33, batted .228/.282/.411 with five home runs and a .694 OPS in 68 games with the Nationals last season prior to being given his release in July. He'll compete for a reserve outfielder job this spring.
Source: Brian McTaggart on Twitter
Fri Nov 2, 2012 12:50 pm Agent Scott Boras has denied a report that Rick Ankiel is considering a return to the mound.
Fantasy Source Spin: "Rick Ankiel is a position player," Boras said. "He's not pitching." Joe Strauss of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported Thursday that Ankiel was considering a return to the bump, but evidently it's not going to happen. The 33-year-old failed to catch on with another team after being released by the Nationals in July, but it appears he's not ready to give up on his career as a position player.

Call Don't Click Update: Still be smart about ordering federally mandated free credit reports
The World Privacy Forum cautions consumers who qualify [1] to order a federally mandated free annual credit report [2] to ensure that they take common-sense computer safety steps before ordering their credit report online. [3] If consumers are unsure about any aspect of securing their computers, calling for a credit report via the official toll free number (877-322-8228) is a good option, as is mailing in for the report. [4] Both the phone and the mail options generally expose consumers to fewer potential hazards than the online option. [5]

I have taken all your advice and tried to work it out and am nearly there. The only problem is when a note should be repeated, instead of being repeated it just comes up with silence, i.e. converts the repeated number into a note off. Instead of a note off, I want another note to be played which is not a repeated note.
Attached is the current setup that i have in the maxpat. If you guys could continue to help me out I would be really greatful.
Also if you have any tips or techniques on how to clean up the whole interconnected numbers bit in the middle, that would also be greatly appreciated.

INDIANAPOLIS | Purdue University is preparing to name a new president, but neither the university nor Gov. Mitch Daniels' office would confirm reports Tuesday that the Indiana governor will be the institution's next leader.
WISH-TV and The Indianapolis Star, both citing anonymous sources, reported that Purdue's board of trustees would vote Thursday to name Daniels to succeed France Cordova as president of the state's second-largest university. Cordova will retire next month after five years at Purdue's helm.
Purdue officials confirmed the trustees would introduce the new president after their meeting, but spokesman Chris Sigurdson declined to identify any candidates for the job.
"Until they (the board) put a name on the table at that meeting, there is no candidate," Sigurdson said.
Board chairman Keith Krach dismissed any reports about Daniels on Tuesday as "speculation," and Daniels spokeswoman Jane Jankowski declined comment.
Daniels will step down as governor in January after eight years in office. State law bars him from seeking a third term.
If selected, he would become the 12th president of Purdue, which has about 75,000 students on its West Lafayette and regional campuses.
The 63-year-old Daniels would not be subject to a rule that requires most Purdue administrators to retire at age 65. Trustees vice chairman Thomas Spurgeon said Tuesday that under university policy, newly hired people can stay in their post until they can build a $44,000 annuity. He said that typically takes seven to eight years.
There is little question Daniels has support among the 10-member board of trustees: He appointed eight of them, including three he re-appointed Tuesday.
Daniels, who received a bachelor's degree from Princeton University in 1971 and a law degree from Georgetown University in 1979, would become the first president of Purdue without extensive experience administering higher education. But he's no stranger to new endeavors: He had never sought elective office before his first gubernatorial run eight years ago.
His other former jobs include White House budget director, president of Eli Lilly and Co.'s North American Pharmaceutical Operations, chief executive officer of the Hudson Institute conservative think tank, chief of staff to Sen. Dick Lugar and a senior adviser to President Ronald Reagan.
Daniels declined last year to seek the Republican presidential nomination, citing family considerations, but has been mentioned as a possible vice presidential running mate to presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney.
Though an appointment to Purdue likely would end that talk, Indianapolis Republican strategist Mike Murphy said it could give Daniels a strong launch pad should he seek office again later.
"It provides Mitch with a great national platform, a la Woodrow Wilson at Princeton," he said.
Indiana Democrats, who have spent the last eight years scrapping with Daniels, said his appointment would cloud the perception of Purdue as a nonpartisan institution.
State Rep. Scott Pelath, D-Michigan City, said the university's decisions under his tenure would be viewed through the "kaleidoscope" of Republican interests.
However, Dennis Barden, senior vice president with Illinois-based executive search firm Witt/Kiefer, said Daniels clearly would meet the needs of the job as a university president, which is increasingly dominated by fundraising and external relations.
"Purdue is just taking what I would think is an enormously giant leap in terms of working with the Legislature," said Barden, who once ran Witt/Kiefer's higher education practice.
Associated Press reporter Tom Davies contributed to this report.

Clinic Information
Clatsop County Public Health has staff available to answer questions and investigate reportable communicable diseases. Call (503) 325-8500 for further information.
General Information about Communicable Diseases
Communicable diseases are those conditions that can be spread to others through air, touch, or contact with contaminated body fluids. Some of the most common communicable diseases are chlamydia, hepatitis A, B and C, giardia, salmonella, pertussis and campylobacter. Not only is it important to be treated for infection, it is necessary for the health department to track communicable diseases in order to ensure the safety of the community by seeking to prevent disease outbreaks.
Diseases that the health department keeps track of are called "reportable."

I have been a Braves fan since 1953, when they moved to Milwaukee. so I have witnessed many more down years than good ones....Here is my take on the BJ Upton situation....I was dead against the Dan Uggla trade, and even more so with the BJ Upton FA signing....The one constant...Frank Wren...I have never been a Wren or Gonzalez fan, and now have relegated this season for the Braves to miss the playoffs, and hopefully Scherholtz with our new owners blessing will go out and get the Braves a top notch GM, like a Billy Beane, and together can hire a top notch Manager.....Now that we have tied up our core young players with new contracts,we have to have a new GM to bring in some top FA's to fill in around these young guys, especially our starting pitching, and I believe this team could make a NLCS run in 2015....Wren & Gonzalez gotta go...!!!

Why B.J. Upton still would seem untradeable
By Mark Bradley
I'm glad they at least TRIED to trade him for the worst pitcher in baseball. The fact that the Cubs still wanted another player and a ton of cash just verifies what a horrible and totally unwanted player BJ is to the league. As the saying goes "he has a face only Frank Wren could love".
This error in judgement along with Dan Uggla will go down in Braves history as the debacle that saddled this team for half a decade! People will still talk about it 30 years from now.
The Braves are dead to me. They are not worth watching. Maybe after new owners and management I will return.
At least Jackson could throw batting practice.
Maybe the Nationals would take BJ if the Braves paid his entire salary. Then he could go screw their lineup up for a year or two.
It seems that if you want a bunch of postings, bring up the subject of BJ Upton. The decision to sign him was in the past. The article is about what recently happened in the potential trade market, and what do the Braves do with him now. All anyone wants to post is cut him or fire Wren. This has been going on all year.
The Braves need to get some value out of BJ, and that will only happen if they can get him back on track. I am not one to accuse him or anyone of being a juicer or on PEDs. No one here knows. I will say that he seems his own worst enemy when he is in the batter's box, and he needs to get past that. He seems to be constantly complaining about the umpire's calls, and that is not going to get him a break. When he gets a call that he disagrees with early in the count, you can plan on a strike out. He takes himself out of the at bat and becomes easier prey.
I didn't see much of BJ before he came to Atlanta, but his appearance in Atlanta always seems to be him complaining, and frankly the whining should stop. It doesn't do him any good. He also is never going to 'earn' his pay. No one with that kind of a contract can. No, not even Chipper. The money ballplayers make is based on them being entertainers and the money can be unbelievable. This isn't a slam on BJ or any other player. It is just the way things work. These guys make more money than neurosurgeons and have less impact on our lives.
BJ should simply appreciate his contract and count it as his. He needs to forget trying to prove himself by hitting five run homers. It isn't going to happen. He also plays a different game than his brother. Don't try to be the power guy. Just go back to playing ball for the fun of it.
I love when it is Take Your Great Granddaughter to Work Day at the AJC. That's when Bradley writes his best stuff. Unfortunately it is also when an hour's worth of reader posts get deleted. "Great granddaddy, what's this red button?" "Oh well, don't you worry now hun. Wheel me over to the window, like a nice little girl."
i said yesterday that shipping gattis, la stella and pena WITH upton to the reds or any team looking for young cheap talent, would be the only way they get rid of that contract.....
I would have been all in favor of an Upton for Jackson swap, if only because the Braves have a much better track record of resurrecting failed pitchers than failed hitters.
The real cost of the Upton contract will be if they are too cash-strapped to extend players who are actually productive, like Heyward after next season. Hopefully it doesn't come to that.
The deal also included the Braves throwing in a lot of money too and that was the sticking point of the deal. Some reports say the Cubs wanted 15 mil and the Braves were around 9. Either way the only way the Braves can trade Upton is if they include him in a multi player deal that includes some pretty good young players.
Wren and Mr. Hairgel of the Falcons are quite a pair. Probably attend the same manicurist.
BJ, Uggla, Lowe, Kawakami, et al. have one thing in common: Wren. Wren was the worst signing of all. He is arrogant and gets outsmarted by good agents. If he was good he would still be in Baltimore. He caused a BJ situation there; anyone remember Albert Belle?
The only thing more insane then signing a near 200 career hitter to a huge contract would be to continue playing him and hoping he will perform better. Hopefully new management will cut their losses with him after the season..
Next year's BJ? Chris Johnson. Great year last year so Frank Wren jumps in with 5 year deal. Despite the great year, there was a reason he was a throw-in in the trade for Upton. Wren appears to be the problem. If BJ doesnt get him fired, then C Johnson most assuredly will.
Apparently Fredi doesn't read this blog.
Until baseball gets rid of long term and guaranteed money with no salary cap this will happen more and more. It's ridiculous to sign anyone for more than 3 years.
mark, maybe dayton moore is the answer and was the answer until he left.
Seems to me the Braves ought to be able to sue BJ for "failure to perform" - It's impossible to understand why baseball does not have performance criteria in their contracts. Should a player not perform at a certain level, then the contract is null and void.
No man is an Island...
Baseball is a team sport...
Thus, plenty blame to go around...
ATL epic fail not solely BJ Upton...
Issues extend beyond BJ...
Bad managerial/executive decisions...
For example, this latest drought...
At leadoff, BJ seemingly came around...
In fact, won a couple games w big hits...
Coincidentally, ATL goes on win streak...
Mgr. moves BJ down to 8th spot...
ATL goes on losing streak...
Coincidence? I think not...
So unaccustomed to spending...
That even when they do, they do unwisely...
This goes back to Mike Hampton...pre-Wren...
Overmatched and outgunned...
Braves trying to win big w 4 players:
Simmons, Heyward, J.Upton, Freeman...
1 player may reach 30 HR...
0 will reach 100 rbi...
Yes, you're handcuffed, but who handcuffed you?...
Terry Pendleton should be manager...
But for, the franchise political infrastructure...
ATL mgr would be last of the mohicans...
But franchise not serious about winning...
Serious about participating...
And participation is profitable...
One could say that John Lackey was one of the worst free-agent signings in history (6.11 ERA in 2011 & injured all of 2012). Then he helped the Red Sox win a title. I'm not saying B.J. is going to turn it around after two miserable years like Lackey did, but with $46 million still to be paid, the Braves have to be hoping for a similar miracle.
Lowe.Kawakami. McLouth. Uggla. B.J. - all high dollar BUSTS acquired by Frank Wren.
Schaffer hitting over .300 in 18 games for Twins. just saying.
These long-term guaranteed contracts are for the birds. The system is broken. A contract should - must - have some performance clauses in it. An NFL model for signing baseball players would be far preferable to what we have now.
I guess you can lay this at the feet of the President, who used the words, "Stop hatin' all the time." in yet another recent campaign speech, and to the polarization of politics in general. But, I really wish this lame concept had not leaked into entertainment, sports etc.
What Obama was saying was, "Stop disagreeing withe me all of the time." In other words, disagreement, constructive criticism, having different ideas, or a different perspective, or even just pointing out established, but inconvenient facts is now tantamount to "hating."
I can't speak for others, but I don't hate BJ Upton. From purely a business standpoint, after two years, the Braves Inc. need to write off their loss as soon as possible, as they did with Uggla. I know, it is easy to say, This lemon of a pick up truck was not worth even close to what I paid for it. But, it is harder to do that with people. But, in business, in order to succeed, you have to do that. The Braves need to do that.
What we don't know and don't see is how his presence impacts the players. How does it impact a young hopeful who would love a chance to pinch hit in the ninth inning of a still winnable game, only to see BJ trotted back up to the plate to do his usual thing? Or to watch a young pitcher lose a brilliant effort because he and his brother have not yet mastered the fundamentals of calling a fly ball in the outfield? And, how does it make to team feel to seem them do that, or others do similar dumb things, or that no one on the team can bunt a baseball, and it is all just perfectly fine with the constantly supportive and apologizing for bad play manager? The Braves have no heart, no pop, no sizzle, no leaders, no comraderie, no passion, but they have enough talent to be leading the Nationals right now. . Maybe BJ is costing them a lot more than just his salary.
BTW. Schafer is in Minnesota now, hitting .300. +/- . He showed he was capable of this last year when he got some regular playing time before the was injured. If he had gotten the same consideration BJ has gotten this year, and the chance to get into a regular rhythm, he could have won the CF starting job. What I do hate about the Braves is that Schafer might have been held back on purpose before he was traded just to avoid the PR mess and embarrassment of playing BJ ahead of him. But they could sure use Schafer's bat and speed and fielding ability about now. I bet he even knows how to call fly balls.
@DawgDadII I second that agreement. The CBA with baseball players compared with the one for the NFLPA is like night and day. I don't pity NFL players, but they don't get squat compared the baseball deal.
Just for fun, I decided to look this up on the MLB website. BJ(with the Braves) in 459 AB's has 19 SBs while Schafer(with Braves & Twins) in 133 AB's has 23 SBs! I do not think, what Schaf did three years ago with the Astros, should define him? It's all about what you can do NOW, Uggla is a fine example of that!
The real problem with BJ Upton is his contract and level of performance are testimony to how disrespectful the current labor agreement is to the fans. MLB is supposed to be a sport; fans that want to follow the sport should not be compelled to subsidize long-term contracts for players who can no longer perform at a replacement level. It costs all of us, when we go to the ballgames or in higher cable and consumer product costs. It is not a good agreement and it has and continues to corrupt the game and the sport.
It would b very interesting to know who is making the ultimate decision to keep BJ in the lineup, Wren or Fredi? Whoever it is should immediately be let go and the other one should follow for putting up with this nonsense. The worst thing for the Braves is to make the playoffs since it may delay revamping this team from top to bottom.
Before Wren's decision to sign BJ, did he ever look at BJ's baseball card or watch a video of BJ playing center field? He could not have used either of these as support for signing BJ at all. Wren should be fired for this transaction, alone.
This decision ranks in the category of trading Adam Wainwright, Jason Marquis and Ray King to rent J D Drew for the remainder of the 1994 season, after which Drew signed with the Dodgers. That was a stupid transaction, too.
the white sox rode out a worse contract with Dunn for 4 years, he batted .201 for 4 yrs, BJ is beating that. no playoffs, but just 3 more years of .325 slugging for 46$ mill
I didn't jump on the BJ hater-wagon as soon as everyone else last season. New team, new league, etc....but even I can see he needs to go now.
I would agree with everyone that bj is awful and should not be on our team. That being said Jordan Schafer was/is not the amswer. When played in 106 games in Houston he hit 211. I don't know who is the answer but it's not these two.
@seminoleking Why would the Reds or any MLB team want to take on the worst rated position player in a trade,even if the Braves paid 99%of his salary every outfielder on the Reds roster is playing better than BJ Upton.
@NajehDavenpoop when did heyward become productive... your diluted.. upton needs to go and heyward needs to be right behind him.
@jdcigar I am not aware of there being new management after the season. Can you share who they will be? Thanks
Most people don't.
They did back in the day. Greed and player abuse by owners changed that. Now, the shoe is on the other foot with deals being paid to free agent players like Uggla and B.J. Payback, I guess. Neither is good for the game.
@tyger you are correct. ive said all along that the braves other players should thank their high horses that bj upton provides them a cover from the media. the whole lineup is streaky. the whole lineup sucks. if bj upton wasnt on the team, then it would shine the spotlight on that fact......
@tyger You have selective memory I believe. BJ started crashing before they moved him out of the lead off.
@SaveAmericaFromItself none of those trades or signings looked bad when they happened. mcclouth was an excellent CF with good speed and some power. we didn't trade much for him. charlie morton, and gorkys hernandez. mcclouth was good for a year. then he sucked. same sort of with lowe and kawakami. good track records, decent first seasons, then they crashed. uggla had above a .280 avg, 30+ HR, and 100 RBIs. he had a pretty good season in the second half and then crashed. bj was an utter bust. i actually wonder if playing in turner field has something to do with their problems. yea, wren and gonzalez have been making pretty bad managerial decisions lately, but it will be hard to get rid of them now because a) century media doesn't care b) we won 96 and 94 games the last two years, and c) braves management, top to bottom takes forever to carry out releases or firings if the player has problems. at least they were trying to get rid of BJ.
@Furman Bitcher Who cares Life time 218 hitter...
@DawgDadII I 100% agree with you!
@highfive Do you really think anyone with a pair, would be honest enough to tell us the truth about why he plays all most every day?
@highfive Got to think it is Wren. Let's assume that all 5 years of BJ's $75 mil contract produce results like this, which is basically nothing. Then add the 2/3 years of Ugla that we basically didn't get, or now won't get any production from. You'll looking at a GM who has basically blown over $100 million dollars for practically no production at all. Folks, Wren is in the running for being one of the worse GM's in Atlanta sports history. Right now he is in close 2nd to Don Waddell.
@DavidRamsey Dunn has hit 105 HR's and has 273 RBI's since joining the Sox. Batting avg. is the most overrated stat in baseball. The differnce between a .300 hitter and a .200 hitter is is 1 hit every 10 at bats or about 2 hits over 4 or 5 games. He has also drawn 320 walks has a fairly good OBP. No comparison to BJ.
That was three seasons ago. Look at his numbers last season before the injury. Given an extended opportunity, he is infinitely better than BJ in defense and hitting.
@TampGator1 @Techmate One word...UNION
@58Supersports @Furman Bitcher Batting .302, with an OBP of .403, 8 SB in 18 games. Yea we definately don't need that kind of a hitter/producer on the team. Might mess up our strategy of scoring 1 or 2 runs a game. I don't care what he did 2 years ago in Houston.
He's never hit above 247 in a season. Stats don't lie
How's he doing now...with a bonafide major league manager?
@RangeRover @Snoop_Dawgy_Dawg heck, I would take a .247 hitting Schafer over BJ any day of the week.
Justin Upton and Freddie Freeman can hit with a bad manager?
Schafer hit 211 in 106 games with the astros is that not good enough playing time for you
@Snoop_Dawgy_Dawg They also play everyday. Schaffer played once every 2 weeks as a pinch hitter. Kind of hard to get your timing down with that amount of infrequent at bats.
@Snoop_Dawgy_Dawg Try to keep up. That was two or three years ago when he admitted he didn't have his head on straight. He's now batting over .300, with 8 steals now that he is getting to play everyday. He has had as many hits in 2 weeks as BJ has had in 2 months, and the Braves let him go for nothing.
Let me ask you this would you give bj a pass if he said he didn't have his head straight?
@Snoop_Dawgy_Dawg It would at least explain his bad numbers. Bottom line - BJ has nearly 2 years of this kind of ineptitude. Schaffer had 2/3rds of bad season with Astros. What Schaffer is doing now in Minnesota may be an anomoly (sp), time will tell, but I think the Braves would have a better won/lose record right now if they would have been playing him and not BJ. Got to remember, look at all the 1 run loss games we had. Schaffer instead of BJ in the line up may have given us a few more wins, which may be the difference between playoffs and no playoffs.
I'll agree that Schafer would be better than bj. That being said I don't think either one of them would be the answer
@Snoop_Dawgy_Dawg You might be right but if Schafer had as many AB's as BJ, he might realistically have 60-65 SB's and let's just say hit .260 BA. I could live with that and his good D? The kid always hustles with his uniform dirty every game he played.

With the dents relieved and the stretched metal heat-shrunk back to normal, we skim-coated some Evercoat Rage filler along the entire panel. It seems like a lot of filler, but it really isn't. One coat ensured an evenness we couldn't get by spot-filling each area. The tape is there because filler doesn't really stick to anything but bare metal.

Kansas City Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles has tied San Diego Chargers TE Antonio Gates for 10th in ESPN.com's Power Rankings Series.
ESPN has been using a panel of "experts" to rank players at various positions all offseason. At first there appeared to be some structure to what they were doing. I assumed they would cycle through each position group until they had ranked all of them. You know, do the RB's then the WR's, then the DT's and so forth.
I apparently thought wrong.
I am now thoroughly convinced that ESPN has constructed a wooden "Lockout Wheel Of Content Hilarity" that they spin each week to decide what kind of ridiculous rankings they will have their "experts" vote on each week. To date, they've ranked the top ten owners and the top ten helmets. HELMETS!
This week, they came up with an even more confusing and convoluted set of criteria. Instead of continuing to rank the position groups, it appears the wheel landed on the "rank the best offensive players in the NFL but you can't include QB's because while QB's are indeed offensive players, they are so important to the offensive process that the list would likely be dominated by QB's and we already ranked QB's so we want to get some different kinds of names in there, you know and who knows, maybe even a lineman will make this list and it won't be as boring as just a set of rankings ranking lineman because really, who cares about lineman, they aren't exciting and don't score TD's and maybe next week we can do jerseys or cleats or something" spot on the wheel.
More after the jump.
Anyway, with QB's taken our of the equation, old JC, also known around here as the hands down best RB in the NFL, managed to sneak in at #10, tied with Antonio Gates. This isn't bad, considering this list included all offensive players not named Quarterback.
Adding to the ridiculousness and inconsistency of the ESPN Power Rankings series is that if you go back and look at the previous rankings of certain offensive position groups, they are not consistent. For instance, Charles ranked as the 5th best running back in the RB Ranks, behind #4 Arian Foster. However, in the "offensive players not named QB" rankings, Charles ranked 10th and Foster tied for 14th.
So let me just get this straight in my head ESPN. Charles is 5th best RB in the NFL and the 10th best offensive player and Foster is the 4th best RB and the 14th best offensive player?
ESPN may not always bust out their best stuff but at least they provide plenty of material for us to make fun of them about.

- Great Review by Andrew Precious
Price Value Quality
When I first ordered this DVD is was out of curiosity for for the remaining true traditional martial arts.
When I first hit play I was completed stunned at how strangely uncoordinated everything looked. From the unorthodox clenched fists, to the strange goose stepping and the weird x-gaurd positions made for blocking. On yop of this the master is a small, rodundt looking fellow who does not look athletic in the least. Seriously, I was totally shocked how bad it looked I thought it was a joke.
However, not one to judge a book by its cover I spent some time watching the DVD to try and understand what was happening and why. I imaged the samurai of old in full armor walking around a dangerous battle field with unsure footing. It started to make sense and techniques and fast, yet uncoordinated looking attacks, didn't look as crazy as I first thought. There is lots of study material here and I'm beginning to glean lots of small details and gems. Its not for everyone and most people would dismiss it at first glance but I'm glad I persevered as there is something to learn from the old ways if you look long enough.

The past few months, I have to say, have been something of a blur for me. In truth, between things such as the school musical, Science Olympiad competitions, and various other trips and activities I've been part of since January, I haven't been thinking about college all that much. I figured that the work was all done—all there was left to do was to wait. And by that point, I was fairly experienced with waiting, if I do say so myself. Continue reading

You Never Know
I never thought that it would happen, but it's almost time to say goodbye to 2010, and hello to 2011—and with a nice vacation between the two. Of course, for a lot of students out there (including me!), the work isn't over yet. But the end is in sight—just think of how nice it'll be once all is said and done, and we can resume our lives as normally stressed high school students, instead of totally distressed high school students scrambling to get applications done. (Though hopefully you've been scheduling well and avoiding the second case.) Continue reading
Talking About Yourself
You've filled out forms, taken tests, sent grades, and written essays. Your application is pretty much complete—or, at least, you know exactly how you're going to complete it. So soon enough, it'll be time to just hit submit and keep your fingers crossed for four more months. Right? Well, there's one more hurdle, one more thing to do. Even though it's oftentimes marked as optional, a lot of colleges "strongly recommend" you do it. What am I talking about? Continue reading
Caught In Between
I'm in that odd period of time, between the early college deadline and the regular college deadline, where I'm counting down the days until I hear whether I'm accepted early or not. I know that I should be working on regular decision materials just in case I'm not accepted early, so that I won't have to scramble to finish in December. But procrastination lives on; after having spent pretty much the past two months on early applications, I'm not too eager to get back to them so soon. Continue reading
Clicking that Button, and Beyond
I'd like to share an experience from a few days ago. I was staring at the "SUBMIT" button on the computer. Months of work had led up to this moment. I hovered over the button for a moment, started to click, and then moved away. I looked over the entire form one more time, making sure everything was spelled correctly, and that I'd selected the all the right options, checked all the right boxes, and so on. I read my essays one more time, making sure the all the grammar was right. I took out a comma, wavered for a moment, and then put it back. And then, I was right back to that big, inviting "SUBMIT" button. I took a deep breath and clicked it. Continue reading

Welcome Back … Now Fasten Your Seat Belts!
Classes have begun once again, marking the close of my final summer as a high school student. Summer always seems to go by too quickly; though looking back, I have to admit that I did have a fairly productive break. In a nutshell, I visited colleges, volunteered at a local refugee resettlement program, and ended up with some time to relax. Essentially, most of the things I planned to do back in June, I did indeed complete — and most of them were done before the beginning of August. So, then, what did I do for the rest of the time?
Summer? Already?
Yes, the best time of year for us students is already on the horizon — summer vacation is coming fast. Of course, being juniors, nothing is easy for us; summer vacation just can't be quite the same three months of relaxation and fun it used to be. So what am I personally planning on doing? I've mentioned a few things that I need to finally get around to doing over the summer, but here is the list in full. Continue reading

I'd love to see this make production.»www.liveleak.com/view?i=28f_1357091160
My Volvo wasn't like that... It was a very good car, but the Volvo S60 Polestar is pure sex.
We had a 2005 Volvo. Piece of crap. Best thing that ever happened to it was when my wife totalled it.Volvo is Chinese now, right? I'm sure their cars are crappier than ever.
We had a 2005 Volvo. Piece of crap. Best thing that ever happened to it was when my wife totalled it.Volvo is Chinese now, right? I'm sure their cars are crappier than ever.
Volvo is currently owned by an Indian company. They are not made in China or India.I stand corrected. I was thinking Jaguar. ( »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaguar_Cars )
1 recommendation
said by Wikipedia :in August 2010, Ford completed its sale of Volvo to the parent of Chinese motor manufacturer Geely Automobile for $1.8 billion.
said by Wikipedia :Geely (officially Zhejiang Geely Holding Group) is a Chinese automotive manufacturing company headquartered in Hangzhou, China. Its principal products are automobiles, motorcycles, engines, and transmissions. It sells passengers cars under five brand names: Emgrand, Englon, Geely, Gleagle, and Volvo. Geely acquired Volvo Cars from Ford for US$1.8 billion in 2010. Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd, a subsidiary of Geely, is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.Geely means "auspicious" or "lucky" in Mandarin Chinese.
said by Wikipedia :Geely wants to make Volvo-branded cars in China something Volvo (but not the Chinese state) has agreed toAs of 2011, two Volvo making plants were planned - one each in the cities of Daqing and Chengdu
A car that can do that track 7 seconds faster than that Audi and Merc? is phenomenal.
I must say while I know they do make some fast cars, First thing to my mind when I hear Volvo is ugly boxy station wagons that are usually very safe in a crash.--[65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports

The 2013-2014 Denver Nuggets season has mercifully come to an end. The season finished up much as it had began with the Nuggets playing hard and undermanned but losing to a superior opponent, the Golden State Warriors, 116-112. This game was a microcosm of the Nuggets season as they played with only 8 healthy bodies once again. They were also playing on the second night of back to back games against playoff teams, and just didn't have enough gas in the tank to finish a very impressive rally in the 2nd half. The 6th seeded Warriors chose not to play their starters as Klay Thompson was the only starter that saw action in the game, playing only the first 8 minutes and notching 8 points for his efforts. The Warriors bench was summoned to play big minutes in the contest as Warriors Head Coach Mark Jackson rested his starters for their upcoming playoff series against the 3rd seeded LA Clippers. The Nuggets had no answer for reserve forward Jordan Crawford as he went completely off the reservation with a career high 41 points against a bevy of Nuggets defenders. Harrison Barnes got the start and poured in 30 points for the Warriors including shooting 3-5 from behind the 3 point arc. One other problem the Nuggets ran into in this game was their only true point guard, Aaron Brooks, was ejected from the game with 6 minutes left in the 3rd quarter thus pushing Randy Foye into the point guard position. It didn't hinder Foye's production though as he finished the game with 32 points and 11 assists to lead the Nuggets charge back from a double digit deficit in the first half. Kenneth Faried added 15 points and 13 rebounds to finish his hot streak to end the season. Anthony Randolph chipped in with 19 points for the Powder Blue Crew but it wasn't enough to beat the Warriors 2nd unit on this night. In the interview session after the game, Head Coach Brian Shaw said, "I just told the guys that this is the last time that we want to end our season on the last game of the regular season". He added, "I encouraged them to watch a lot of playoff basketball so that they can see the things that we didn't do that allowed the teams that are going to continue on and play after today be the ones that are continuing to play." This contest was the final game that will include long time Nuggets Trainer Jim Gillen. He is retiring from the rigors of the NBA after 23 years as Nuggets Trainer. He has not missed a single game or practice in his time in this position and many Nuggets employees and the crew on Altitude donned Gillen's signature Argyle Sweater in honor of him. The offseason will be very interesting for this team seeing which of the Nuggets injured players return to health for next year and what moves they make to strengthen their roster. We will have much more on the Nuggets offseason activities right here @Nugg_Love so keep following us on Twitter and check this site for all your Nuggets information.

PAWTUCKET ŌĆö Daniel Bard admits thereŌĆÖs somewhat of a weight of his shoulders, knowing that regardless of how heŌĆÖs fared with the Pawtucket Red Sox ŌĆō 7.45 ERA in 28 appearances ŌĆō he remains very much on BostonŌĆÖs radar.
Asked to respond to an item in SundayŌĆÖs Boston Herald in which an anonymous Red Sox source clarified that he will pitch again for the big-league team in 2012, Bard took the occasion to explain how he can use the remaining few weeks in PawtucketŌĆÖs season to his advantage.
NORTH SMITHFIELD ŌĆö An unaudited review of North Smithfield's finances shows the town ending the fiscal year with a $628,788 surplus in its general fund, Town Administrator Paulette D. Hamilton and Finance Director Brian Silvia announced Friday.
A portion of the surplus is a result of town departments finishing the year under budget, Hamilton said. The remainder of the surplus was generated through various revenue sources exceeding budget projections.
WOONSOCKET ŌĆō A 39-year-old city woman faces 33 criminal charges, including 18 felony counts, in connection with the fraudulent use of checks allegedly stolen from a neighbor's apartment, police said Friday.
Jennifer L. Bell, 39, of 19 Hamlet Ave., was charged after police investigated a complaint by a 53-year-old woman that someone had been writing checks to her checking account between June 4 and July 18.
The amounts were less than $500 per check but in total amounted to more than $3,000, police said.
Dodging raindrops on Main Street, Woonsocket residents (from left) Kayla Paquin, 4, Lauren Larson, Katelyn Erminelli, 14, Angela Erminelli, Brittany Jacques, 13, and Ashley Erminelli, 11, have a little fun on an otherwise dreary Saturday morning in the city.
PAWTUCKET ŌĆō Who better to clarify any myths regarding the perceived toxic environment that is the Red Sox clubhouse than a player who spent a hearty amount of time inside the ropes?
Ladies and gentlemen, we give you Darnell McDonald, the former part-time Boston outfielder whose access to the team was short-circuited upon getting designated for assignment in late June. Fortunately for this particular exercise, McDonald is seen as the perfect go-to guy to set the record straight in a Red Sox season that has taken on the tenor of a soap opera in terms of firestorms and drama.
BELLINGHAM ŌĆö The Saint Blaise Conference of Saint Vincent de Paul is participating in the ŌĆ£Friends of the Poor Walk," a national walk that provides an opportunity to raise funds for the local conference.
Started in 2008, the walk has grown each year, attracting over 18,000 walkers and raising over $1.4 million with over 1,000 conferences participating. This is the second year St. Blaise is participating.
Last year, St. Blaise had 26 walkers and raised $4,390. The group says it is looking to double the participation and funds raised.
Governor Lincoln Chafee visits one of the Hasbro Summer Learning Initiative sites on Friday ŌĆö the Connecting for Children and Families' Chillin' & Skillin' summer program, held at the Kevin Coleman Elementary School in Woonsocket. He witnessed a hands-on presentation by Save the Bay called "A Bay Experience" with live sea creatures such as starfish, crabs and perriwinkles. The governor was quite impressed, saying, ŌĆśIt was an important opportunity for youth to be able to learn and be outdoors at the same time.
Margaret Mary Lovett
NORTH SMITHFIELD- Margaret Mary Lovett, 54, died August 16, in Woonsocket Heath and Rehabilitation Center with her family by her side after battling ALS.
Born in Providence, she was the daughter of Joan (Lynes) Lovett of Burrillville and the late Vincent Lovett of Florida.
PAWTUCKET ŌĆō At this point, you have to feel for Daniel Bard.
The Red Sox can point to the fact that Bard was not touched for an earned run in his inning of work Thursday night, but make no mistake: it was another tough night at the office for the struggling reliever. In case youŌĆÖre just joining us, BardŌĆÖs latest attempt to get back on track provided a nice, tucked-in capsule of what has plagued the reliever during his two-plus month stint with the Pawtucket Red Sox.
PAWTUCKET ŌĆö If Daisuke Matsuzaka made what he dubbed a ŌĆ£small mechanical adjustmentŌĆØ prior to taking the mound for the fifth inning Wednesday night, itŌĆÖs news to both PawSox pitching coach Rich Sauveur and catcher Dan Butler.
ŌĆ£Whatever tweak he made, he made on his own,ŌĆØ stated Sauveur on Thursday, one day after Matsuzaka delivered what could be coined a mixed bag of an outing.
There was good Matsuzaka ŌĆō four scoreless innings in which he retired 12 of 13 Scranton batters ŌĆō following by bad Matsuzaka, the damage pertaining to the five runs (four earned) he yielded in the fifth.

Let the miracle of Ed Koch dying on the date of Daniel Pearl's death be a stern warning to all Islamic enemies of America and Israel: God and history are not on your side.
Ed Koch to God: Lord, how'm I doing?
God to Ed Koch: I am making you Mayor of Heaven.
Former three-term New York Mayor Ed Koch, age 88, passed away this morning of congestive heart failure. A legend in his own right, Koch led New York through some of its most turbulent years in the 1980s.
Known for his catch phrase "How'm I Doing," he was outspoken and had a bold and ebullient personality. "You punch me, I punch back," Koch once told a reporter. "I do not believe it's good for one's self-respect to be a punching bag."
Credited with championing gay rights, combatting Tammany Hall, and improving conditions in inner city New York, Koch was not afraid to...
