Pickoff Moves

Translator, Please

Another Choi Hoon spectacular, this time about the Dodgers. Anybody want to venture a translation?

Who's In Center?

This Daily News piece makes it clear that the Angels' starting centerfielder is anything but clear; it could be Erstad, it could be Figgins, but according to Bill Stoneman,
"This gives us a different balance of guys who can play multiple positions," Stoneman said. "The answer as to who's going to play where and where Erstad plays is going to come from (manager) Mike (Scioscia), not me."
Maybe ideally that means Erstad plays until he goes on the DL some time in June or May.

Pads Get Permission To Change Petco Fences

The Padres got permission from MLB to shrink the outfield fences by as much as 11 feet in some places, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

D'Backs Vigorously Shopping Glaus

I wasn't too thrilled with the contract Troy Glaus got from Arizona last year, and neither, now, are the Snakes, who are pushing hard to move their third baseman; the Red Sox, Blue Jays, Orioles, and an unknown NL team are in the running.

Tiny, Tiny Coliseum

It's official: capacity at Oakland's Corporate Boondoggle Coliseum will now be limited to 34,179, the smallest in the majors. Will that help the bottom line? Maybe.

Comments:
How about the Angels trade Edgardo Alfonso, Hector Carrasco, and J.P. Romero for Troy Glaus? Throw in Chris Bootcheck for kicks if they dither. The D-backs say they want pitching, the Angels have some pitching. At least the ones they haven't let go via wavers...

After that the Angels can sign Jeff Weaver.
 
i wonder who the fifth starter will be . . . Mike Scoscia described Hector Carrasco as a "project" yesterday during a radio interview, so they may not give him much of a chance to win the job . . . perhaps it will be Jared Weaver or Joe Saunders
 
Above picture states:
1B Acquisition Garciaparra
Garciaparra: "Yoep" (its like yoink)
Kent, Choi, Saenz: "Guk!" (sort of like gasp)
 
Hmmm, I still don't get it, but I want to...
 
For the rest:
1st Box:
Choi: "Ok, next year, I'm going to try hard, and take charge."

2nd Box:
1st Base Saenz resign
Saenz: "eu-sha" (sort of like yosh or something)
Choi: "Hick" (like eek)
Sound effect: 'koong'

3rd Box:
Saenz: "Choi, next year lets try or do our best."
Choi: "Ah...Yes"

4th Box:
SS Acquisition Furcal
Furcal: "Now now (or come on) move over one space"

5th Box:
Kent: "Let's have a relationship..."
Saenz & Choi: "..."

6th Box:
3B Acquisition Muller
Muller: "From now this is my spot. You kids go away." (raw trans sort of)
Robles: "Ahh..."

7th Box:
1B Acquisition Garciaparra
Garciaparra: "Yoep" (its like yoink)
Kent, Choi, Saenz: "Guk!" (sort of like gasp)

8th Box:
Crowd: (sort of like) "How can you come in so suddenly"
"Stop pushing me"
"Ah~ My arm hurts"
Drew: (I don't know how to translate this but, its something like:)
"Cch~ What are you doing acting like boogers on the ground?" (Its like a slang: when little kids fight, they say something like that so its more "What are you doing acting like little kids?")

I don't know if the translation is perfect...but I guess it will do...until someone else can do it better...
By the way great website you have here
