*2014-15 Hot Stove Thread: The Padres won it I guess (2 Viewers)

Anyone ever been out to the Field of Dreams thing out in Iowa?

Another interesting thing about this movie:

The girl who played Karin, Gaby Hoffman, just won the "Monster Muff" Award in Mr. Skin's annual Anatomy Awards. You can follow her bush on twitter @GHoffmansbush.

Technically I guess that isn't really about the movie. She was pretty awesome in Uncle Buck too.

This is why you don't let your kid be a child actor, IMO.

Can't claim Semien anymore. Traded him away.

Semian is just securing steady playing tine. He sucks :gobbler:

@PeteAbe: #SFGiants saying Hunter Pence has a broken arm and as @BNightengale correctly notes, Allen Craig would be a great fit.

Mike Minor has an appointment with Dr. Andrews

 

[Good Posting Judge]

I like his bat, how much and where he defends (long term) seem like open questions. Some bloom has (unjustifiably?) come off the rose since he struggled in half a season with the big club, if he'd spent the whole year at AAA, I think he'd be much more highly touted.

Overall I think the haul they got for a Samardjiza rental was pretty strong.

Unfortunate that this happened. Hopeful he makes a full recovery. Sometimes an injury like this can mess with a player's mechanics as they play their way back to health, but I can't imagine that will be an issue with Pence.

The only time Pence worries about mechanics is when his scooter needs fixing

I bet this is going to be like Rookie Of The Year, and when Pence gets his cast off he can throw a 110-MPH four-seamer. With his left arm.

There is no way the Cubs are trading for him

I'm comfortable with Gary Busey as our 5th starter.

Casey Kotchman signed a minor league deal with Kansas City. They got him because John Jaha asked for too much money.

The velocity should be somewhat expected. We'll see about control when the real games start.

Because the strike zone changes come opening day?

 

[Limp Ditka]

When you think opening day starters, Josh Collmenter's name has to be one of the first names that pops into your head

 

[RnR]

Is someone out there compiling a list of the Opening Day starters as they are officially announced?

 

[shadyridr]

Kind of curious who the yanks name

Strike zone changes everyday. But hopefully one day we'll get robot umpires.
