I was obviously just kidding around. Utley is just about as good as it gets.

The Tigers just put Willis on the 15-day DL for..... anxiety disorder:

That may be the unexplainable drop off.

There really is a great group of young second basemen in the league right now. Pedroia, Utley, Fonte(yes)not, Phillips, Kinsler, and Uggla.

Prost264 · March 29th, 2009, 10:57 PM

Uggla is good, but he's a bit inconsistent.. or just not clutch enough.

As for Willis. There was talk a few years ago that the Phillies were thinking of trading Cole Hamels for Willis. That would have been the bigest mistake in baseball.

I don't see Willis ever coming back. I feel like his head is too screwed up to have any kind of success ever again.

Whappeh · March 29th, 2009, 11:05 PM

btw, I just got excited because on my cable box guide I can see the start of the season on ESPN on the 5th.

Prost264 · March 29th, 2009, 11:07 PM

Phillies v. Braves!

I can't wait. I have tickets to the 2nd game on the 7th. Couldn't get tickets to the 3rd game, thats the ring ceremony..

All this talk about good and great and awesome and winning makes me feel left out as a Mariners fan

Getting ready to head out to the last spring training game I'm going to, Red Sox @ Braves here in Orlando. Could be fun. Its baseball in person!

The best part about Extra Innings (Other then the baseball) is the fact that you get to watch all these crazy ass commercials from parts far and wide. I was cracking up at some of the ones at the Blue Jays games I watched last year on the Canadian feed, especially during the election.

OMG....Blue Jays commercials...*cringe*

As big of a fan as I am of the team, those commercials make me want to root for the Yankees.

Prost264 · March 31st, 2009, 6:09 PM

Ugh.. don't watch the Phillies feed then. I guarantee we have some of the worst non-Phillies related commercials in the country.

hemoh · March 31st, 2009, 9:54 PM

The Brewers broadcasts tend to show the same Miller beer ad during roughly every other commercial break.

As well as this....*buries face in hands*

+ YouTube Video

Prost264 · March 31st, 2009, 9:56 PM

Who else is has the same horrible W.B. Mason commercials forced on them?

If I were in the position where I had to pick either W.B. Mason or one of their competitors, I would go with a competitor, just based on W.B. Mason's commercials.

I give you.. The Devil:

racingfan1 · April 1st, 2009, 2:24 AM

Hearing all of you say how bad your commercial breaks are, makes me glad I don't live in an MLB market. We get the generic national commercials.
