Oh well, I'm better at long term predictions (because people tend to forget that I made them!

Seven runs in two innings against Boston, according to the Mariner's Web site. He was yanked after "a rough debut" according to the folks of MLB.com. Sure looks like a good thing we let him walk. I mean, I know it's early, and I know it's the Red Sox, but jeeze. This one will sting for Weaver for a while.
Dave Duncan is teh clutch
Weaver is one of the biggest idiots to come down the pike in some time. I don't know if he just let Boras do his thinking for him or if he is just his own worst enemy. Giving up 2 years of Dunc and adoring fans who will not soon forget his post season heroics for one year in the Big League outback that is Seattle. Give me a f-in break.

Mr. Weaver, I fart in your general direction.

I had the idea of doing a bizzaro fanasty league, where you pick players who you think will do terribly. Things like earned runs, walks, and loses would be counted for pitchers, and strikeouts, errors and GDP would be counted for hitters.

Weaver would be a first round draft pick, for sure.

He better start saving. If his one year contract ends as badly as it started, he's not going to get very much money next year... or the rest of his career.

Jeff Sackman wrote something on this last week at THT. I think I am going to try and do that next year as a second or third league.

That sounds fun. I'd play.

Superstars would be those bad enough to be amazingly bad, but good enough to keep playing.
