Gameday Open Thread/ A's @ Cubs
The Cubs announced their second round of roster cuts, trimming the roster by seven. Pitchers Jeff Samardzija, Ed Campusano, Juan Mateo were sent to the minors and Shingo Takatsu was released. Jake Fox, Luis Figueroa and JD Closser were the position players sent to minor league camp.
Re: Gameday Open Thread/ A's @ Cubs
I wonder if Greg Smith's real first name is Gaylord?
Re: Gameday Open Thread/ A's @ Cubs
Nope, but his middle name is Cesar.
Re: Gameday Open Thread/ A's @ Cubs
Shingo - no more?
Big League Campers?
Is there some way to find or get a list of who is all currently at the big league camp right now (i.e. who's all eligible to play in the spring training games), after the cuts made?
Re: Big League Campers?
How have they not cut Walrond yet...
Re: Big League Campers?
Off topic a bit but has anyone referenced an Eggman/Walrond joke yet?
Coo coo coo choo?
Re: Big League Campers?
Chad -- it's "Goo goo ga joob" -- per the lyrics printed on the inner sleeve of the Beatles LP 1967-1970.
Re: Big League Campers?
ok, but can i claim the first eggman/walrond joke?
I hate being so very 3/44.
Re: Big League Campers?
Fine by me. I don't recall any others. Stake your claim.
Re: Gameday Open Thread/ A's @ Cubs
Soriano makes bad defensive play diving for ball (according to A's announcer), but recovers by throwing out the A's runner going for a triple. Then Fuld makes an amazing diving catch in left center (according to A's announcer). 2 good...1 bad, i guess we will take it.

Re: BP Jumps the Shark..
People who get hurt are lacking in the heart department?
Re: BP Jumps the Shark..
But we find that the play Damn Yankees was wrong.
The teams at the top of the heart-o-matic chart didn't go to the playoffs (angels excluded) and for the most part, sucked. White Sox, Marlins, Cardinals.
But the teams at the top of the lack-of-heart-o-matic went to the playoffs and one even won the World Series.
So i guess the play Damn Yankees was wrong when the told us that "You gotta have heart!"
They lied to us...in song!

that's weird.

Ian Happ is hitting.733 after 5 games at Tennessee. He went into tonight's game hitting .667 -- and went 3-for-3 to raise his average.
2-for-3, including a bomb, for LaStella at Iowa. Pierce Johnson very bad -- 2IP, 5ER. Pitching prospects not looking so hot -- Underwood has been awful.
Did Jiminez get hurt? I noticed he came out early yesterday.
Contreras keeps hitting/walking like this, and Miggy keep up the poor D and lack of offense - the kid could be the #1 catcher very soon.
it doesn't hurt that the Cardinals lose the KC and the Pirates lost too.
...still trying to process what I just saw. From both KB and Jake. Walking Billy Hamilton twice is a cry for help. I think the nudie photos are messing with Jake's head.
Hopefully Peralta's time on the Cubs roster will be shorter than R. Soriano's.
it took 9 pitches for peralta to give up his 1st cubs homer. neat.
damn...totally missed that ruben quevedo died on june 7th. he was only 37...heart attack.
he threw some really horrible games for the cubs in 2000 and followed it up by doing the same for 3 season for the brewers.
Holy Kris Bryant what?!
Hitting 3 HR, 2 doubles in a game. Never been done in mlb history per Len/Bob.
walks? this is baseball, not a nature hike. he needs to get his head in the game.
in my opinion, he would have been better off hitting 2 homers rather than walking twice. /moneyballs
Rizzo: 2-3, homer, double, 2 walks - meh
in other news, the site seems to be eating about 50% of my comments...which is probably a good thing in hindsight.
The Tucker Barnhart reactions after each Kris Bryant HR are kind of priceless.
...but, he's also good at home runs, too.
also, rizzo.
technically a wp...that said, a good catcher can turn a good amount of wp into blocked balls that don't show up on the stats.
schwarber, for instance, was really bad at stopping wild pitches because of how stiff he was behind the plate.
Was that a wp or pb really? Unbelievable turn-around with this club. 8 runs will not be enough to win this game.

CDOT partnering with MADD Colorado and CSP in Red Ribbon Campaign for Holiday DUI Crackdown
DENVER, Nov. 20, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- With a holiday that includes not only giving thanks, but also eating, spending time with family, and shopping, it is important for motorists to remember that the annual Thanksgiving "Heat Is On" crackdown will be underway over the holiday. Additionally, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) will join Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Colorado and Colorado State Patrol (CSP) to kick off the 2012 holiday crackdown on drunk driving by calling on Colorado residents to Tie One On For Safety®
MADD's Tie One On For Safety red ribbon campaign, now in its 26th year, is the organization's signature public awareness project. Drivers display MADD red ribbons on their vehicles as a reminder to drive safe and sober, and in support of Colorado law enforcement officers, who will be out in force as part of the national "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" campaign.
Thanksgiving "Heat Is On" enforcement by Colorado State Patrol (CSP) and dozens of local agencies throughout Colorado will begin today, Tuesday, November 20 at 6 p.m. and will last until 3 a.m. on Monday, November 26. Only weeks ago, the Halloween crackdown resulted in 570 DUI arrests in Colorado.
Last year during the Thanksgiving DUI enforcement period, there were seven fatal crashes involving seven fatalities. Four fatalities were attributed to alcohol and 453 DUI arrests were made by Colorado law enforcement agencies. The jurisdictions with the highest numbers of DUI arrests included Denver (53), Colorado Springs (36), Adam's County (23), Aurora (17), and Larimer County (14).
"These aren't just numbers to those of us at MADD Colorado who see on a daily basis the heartache and devastation caused by drunk driving crashes. These are family, friends, co-workers and neighbors," said Fran Lanzer, MADD Colorado. "Holidays are a time for celebration; we don't want them to be a time of tragedy. Please plan ahead for a sober designated driver if you're going to celebrate with alcohol."
"We are asking all Coloradans that are starting out this busy travel week for Thanksgiving, to do the right thing by planning ahead for a sober ride home," said Colonel James Wolfinbarger, Chief of the Colorado State Patrol. "Our Troopers will be out in force to keep our roadways safe. Please tie a red ribbon on your vehicle or key chain as a constant reminder to make smart and safe driving choices throughout the holiday season. And, remember to always buckle up."
Tie One On For Safety is presented locally by the law firm of Bell & Pollock. "This campaign is a great way to raise awareness about the importance of safe driving during the holidays," said Gary Bell, Founding Partner. "The law firm of Bell & Pollock is proud to be MADD Colorado's 2012 Victim Services Sponsor."
This year, Metro Taxi has also joined as a local supporting sponsor. "For anybody who carries a smartphone, a friendly designated driver is just minutes away with a quick tap of our free Metro Taxi app," said Metro Taxi Operations Manager Bobby McBride. "There is never an excuse to drink and drive and our goal is to make it easy for people in the community to avoid the strife of a DUI."
MADD's Tie One On For Safety red ribbons are available at several Colorado locations, including the front range branches of Community Banks of Colorado, Groove Automotive dealerships, and Colorado State Patrol troop offices throughout the state. Ribbons are also available at select locations of Nationwide Insurance, the national presenting sponsor for the Tie One On For Safety holiday campaign. For more information, visit www.madd.org/co.

Public Safety & Justice
California's Chelsea's Law rethinks the way the state manages sex offenders who will return to society.
After the rape and murder of Chelsea King, a San Diego County teenager, California legislators decided they had to do something. Amid the emotions of the tragedy, they passed a rational, thoughtful law.
That was an unexpected outcome, because many of the approaches that states take to prevent sex crimes are based more on fears than hard evidence. That's as true in California as any other place. There, with the support of most of the state's key politicians, voters approved a 2006 ballot initiative, known as Jessica's Law, that barred sex offenders from living within 2,000 feet of schools, day-care centers, parks or churches.
Researchers and law enforcement groups overwhelmingly say that residency restrictions don't prevent sexual assaults and, in fact, are counterproductive because they drive sex offenders underground, making them more difficult to track. In 2006, though, that message didn't get through. "[Jessica's Law] was a knee-jerk reaction that went against almost everything we know that is effective in dealing with sex offenders," says Robert Coombs, a victims' rights advocate and former chair of California's Sex Offender Management Board.
This year the response was different. Chelsea's Law began as a bill focused on tougher sentences, and its final version still takes that approach, including a provision that will mandate life sentences without the possibility of parole for sex offenders who violently attack children. But thanks to a collaboration between Assemblyman Nathan Fletcher, a San Diego County Republican, and Sen. Mark Leno, a San Francisco Democrat, it also includes a broad rethinking of the way the state manages sex offenders who will return to society.
The law adopts a "containment model" that researchers in the field describe as the most promising approach to reduce sex offender recidivism. The approach couples mandatory treatment with intensive monitoring and regular lie-detector tests. While state policies often treat all offenders the same regardless of the nature of their crimes, the containment model is different. Parole officers and therapists place restrictions on offenders and pursue a treatment strategy based on their individual situations.
Leno says Chelsea's Law is just a first step. He and Fletcher have discussed teaming up next year to try to mend some of the flaws of Jessica's Law. Does that mean sex offender policy in California is finally headed in a more rational direction? "I could answer that question with more authority," Leno says, "a year from now."

Fratton Park
A third game under Whittingham is to take place again at Fratton Park tonight as Pompey prey to brake their 6 match losing streak. Saturday's game was an unlucky 1-0 loss at the hands of Doncaster Rovers but Whittingham and Awford had many positives to take from the defeat and they will hope that the Blues can finally turn practice into performance as they are in desperate for 3 points.... and a first goal in 489 minutes.
A huge boost for Pompey as the figure of 34-year-old fan favourite Ricardo Rocha returns to the Pompey squad since his departure in the summer. Rocha has been a free agent since his departure at the end of last season and caretaker manager Guy Whittingham has snapped him up on a month long deal. 'The Rock' hasn't been training over the summer so is yet to regain full fitness however is expected to make the bench this evening.
Pompey have the joy of getting Scott Allan back from suspension and the resigning of Ricardo Rocha, both available for tonight's game. Allan has finished his 3 match ban following his sending off against Notts County in the FA Cup and Rocha has been signed after being a free agent. Pompey are without Carl Dickinson after he was recalled by parent club Watford and Mikkel Andersen is preparing for his last Pompey game as it's the last left on his loan deal. Akos Buzsaky may return after a hamstring problem but is unlikely to start, Gabor Gyepes overcame illness to perform against Donny on Saturday and is set to continue as is Paul Benson who had a goalless debut against Rovers.
Mendez-Laing made a storming debut on Saturday and gained the pride of being man of the match. The 20-year-old came close to netting at the weekend and he will most certainly be looking to breaking the duck this evening. The winger definitely made a difference against Rovers and may prove to be the catalyst for our revival.
Only certain absentee is Orient keeper Lee Butcher as he is out with a long term knee injury. Jimmy Smith made a surprise appearance on Saturday against Carlisle after picking up an injury against Gloucester in the FA Cup but may make the starting XI tonight. Moses Odubajo fought a groin injury to play at the weekend and is expected to retain his place as he travels to Fratton.
Dean Cox has proved to be the instrumental in the Orient team this year as he has scored twice and has 5 assists. The midfielder travels to the South Coast with plenty of confidence and it is key that the Blues deprive him of the ball tonight.
Pompey have the upper hand over Orient over the years with 13 victories out of a possible 31. Orient have only managed 8 over the Blues but have scuppered 10 draws.
James Skelly
2-0 Pompey. I always look upon a result positively so a win is my guess, and hope. It's been long overdue and it seems we could be finally turning around after a promising performance at the weekend.
Pompey travel to Coventry, hopefully on the back of a win. The sky blues only have 2 more points than the royal blues so an interesting match is in store. WIN OR LOSE, UP THE BLUES!

"THE NEWPORT LADIES BOOK CLUB: Victoria's Promise," by Julie Wright, Covenant Communications, $16.99, 217 pages (f)
After a couple years of working on the set of the popular reality show "Vows" and watching an eligible bachelor weed his way through 30 bachelorettes before handing out a marriage proposal, Victoria "Tori" Winters is a bit jaded by the concept of true love.
Not to mention that the awful ending to her last relationship made it onto YouTube.
Tori has only one serious relationship, and that's with her job. It's one relationship that she's very good at.
That is, until the day Chris Caine, the new eligible bachelor, shows up on set. Tori knows all too well that handsome bachelors are a dime a dozen, but Chris is something else. Chris is genuine, thoughtful and kind — and interested in Tori. Despite herself, Tori finds herself falling for him as well.
The only problem is that Tori's signed contract prohibits flirting with the bachelor in the fine print, and Chris's contract includes a marriage proposal to one of the bachelorettes at the end of the show.
Tori risks her job and the possibility of being blacklisted from Hollywood for the scandal, which would crush her dream of being a screenwriter. With the help of her friends from the Newport Ladies Book Club, Tori struggles with deciding if having love is better than reaching her career dreams.
Not to mention that Chris is afraid of spiders, and Tori will not be the spider-killer in a relationship.
Utah author Julie Wright brings readers yet another delightful read — with an engaging story line, perfectly timed humor and a character relatable to anyone who has had fears of falling in love. Wright truly gives readers all the inside information they've been waiting for after reading about Tori in the other Newport Ladies Book Club novels.
"Victoria's Promise" is a clean romance centered on friendship and fairy-tale endings.
"Victoria's Promise" is part of the second set of books in the Newport Ladies Book Club parallel book series. Each book focuses on one member of the book club, shedding light into her personal life and challenges. Shared scenes allow readers to visit the same interactions and moments from different perspectives.
Once readers have read at least two or three of the Newport Ladies books, it's impossible not to read them all. Each leaves readers eager to learn what's really going on behind the scenes of each lady.
