Harvey had a knack for those moments. The following summer, he briefly appeared to be killed by a toss from right fielder Matt Stairs:

Sweet Jesus. I didn't realize video existed of the tarp incident. LMAO

I forgot about Matt Stairs too. That guy looked about as unathletic as you could get for an outfielder.

Offense has to get going again. Hopefully Massey can give them a little boost.

It stinks if he can't play 2B, though. They really need his bat but things get crowded if all he can do is DH.

Massey activated, Frazier to the IL. Velazquez demoted and CJ Alexander called up. Alexander has had a pretty good year in AAA with a 900 OPS, so he certainly deserves a shot over the guys we have been trotting out there all season. Some moves had to be made and hopefully more happen at some point.

Couple of lowlights from the dark times...

Chip Ambres and Terrence Long both thinking the other was gonna grab an inning ending pop fly, both decide to run to the dugout as the ball lands behind them... Think that was 2005?

And I think from the same year, Kerry Robinson climbing the wall as the ball lands ten feet in front it. Good times.

GeorgeZimZam 06-24-2024 04:42 PM

I miss the days when cool shit happened, even if we did suck.

2003 was a great summer for baseball. That team was pretty exciting. They faded into oblivion, yes. But it was a pretty good season for 3 months.

Ow 2004 was a horrible season. Sitting there on Opening day they were down 7-2 in the 9th and scored 6 to win. I think it was on a Mendy Lopez HR.

Then it all fell apart.

Angel Berroa took home the AL Rookie of the Year award.

His play fell off a cliff afterwards, but I think he deserved it, playing a premium position like SS.

I just love watching Cole Ragans pitch, guys. The arsenal is so good. And he's got some red-ass in him (but not too much).

I was convinced he was going to be an MVP candidate in the the following years. Of course I was like 13 at the time and knew very little about baseball. LMAO
