Adams had a .290 BABIP in 2002, so I guess he wasn't that unlucky.

EDIT: .312 career number though and 2003 was a lot worse, so that's our lasting memory

Do pitchers get zone ratings?

I just looked up his 2003 #s. Not bad. I remember him failing as a starter but being good in middle relief. He must have gotten hurt in August because he only pitched 1 inn in Sept.

I predict Pridie will be back at some point

PRIDIE POWER

I'm over the Terry Adams talk. Chris Brock gave up the longest HR I've ever seen once. I think it was against San Fran. It went like 703 feet

Also, I think he was the guy who said Harry couldn't sit in the back of the plane. Fuck him

Carlos Quentin signing a bummer - at $9m per I thought he was a likely LF solution for next year.

One more comment like that...

I feel like the market for righthanded bats will be extremely thin at the deadline, especially with the Quentin extension, and if the Twins don't trade Willingham. It really is the perfect time to trade Pence

Why don't we trade for Willingham? He's signed for 2 more years, he's OPS+ing above Pence levels and costs in '13/14 about what Pence would cost next season. He'd solve LF (albeit not in a great defensive way) for the foreseeable future and allows you to deal Pence. Pence will bring back alot more than what we'd have to give up to get contract-friendly Willingham.
