Back to the topic at hand:

Weaver gave up 8 hits and 1 walks over 6 innings yesterday, only serving up 3 soft tacos as opposed to the much harder variety that Albert Pujols introduced him to last week.

Weaver's getting the big home opening start. Wish I could be there..

Where the heck was this thread hidden?

The Angels broke off negotiation talk with Jered Weaver, their 1st round draft pick in June, after their $5.2M/yr. offer did not meet Boras' expectations.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 16:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I read they put in Weaver as a pinch runner the other night. wtf?

Pitchers pinch run all the time! Sometimes, they even do it well!

I hereby declare it "TACO DAY" in Chavez Ravine. Pedro Feliz, Marquis Grissom and Edgardo Alfonzo are doing their best to keep the taco shells filled.

Coaching visit to the mound and only one out. SF 3, LA 0.

IT'S TACO TIME! 4-0.

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:31 (twenty-one years ago)

5 fucking TACOS!

These aren't those long tacos that you get at some places, these are strictly more of the station to station variety.

― gygax! (gygax!), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Ha ha! I was just coming to this thread to declare a "tacofest"!

― Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:32 (twenty-one years ago)

To his credit (cough), 5 runs on only 31 pitches is pretty efficient.

― David R. (popshots75`), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 19:46 (twenty-one years ago)

Hey Dave, do you like Tacos?

OK, Spartacus - talk to me when the G-pen doesn't blow the lead. FEAR THE REPKO.

AARGH why wait for the pen when Woodman's "dealing" and Feliz is "fielding"?

― Leeenge de Bruijn (Leee), Tuesday, 12 April 2005 20:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh taco.

Didnt he give up another home run to a fucking pitcher again last night?

― Actor Sizemore fails drug test with fake penis (jingleberries), Thursday, 9 June 2005 19:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, but it was THE ONLY RUN he allowed! Give the guy some slack!

A close one for Team USA, starter Jered Weaver struck out the first six batters he faced. In the third with two outs, Weaver gave up two runs on a walk, a triple, a single, and a double before retiring Francisco Mendez to end the inning. Weaver only posted four innings before getting yanked.

I saw Jeff Kent at the Metreon last weekend. He looked surly. Also the woman he was with who was presumably his wife was surprisingly short and not terribly glamorous. We couldn't figure out what he was doing in SF either. He lives in Texas, right?

btw i really love that b-ref's automated projections have him earning one save this year despite his having never, in his career, pitched in relief

Jered Weaver’s Fastball: Sorry … this is taking a little longer than I thought … almost there

Klaw: Take your time. We’ve got another half hour at least.

Michael: Guys like Weaver and Sabathia presumably wouldn’t make their teams if they were 24 and making $500k. Is it fair to ask then, why don’t those teams just realize the sunk cost and release them?

Klaw: In Weaver’s case they might have to do that – how can you let him start if Carlos Perez could just catch Weaver’s fastball with his teeth?
