Did somebody get a new copy of Excel?
Some asshole installed 07 on my work computer when I wasn't looking
Fuck you I've been asking for 07 for months and they won't give it to me
Bewaaaaaarrrrreeeeee
I'll gladly trade you Office 07 for Office 03 straight up right now
Superior.

Once you get over the grumpiness of a new look, it’s significantly improved.

I prefer it also
I want to wrap that "ribbon" around the UI designer's throat
So turn it off
That doesn't solve the problem

Then you can’t do much until you make it come back

ooo but in 10 minutes of manipulation I can modify the quick access/ribbon configuration so it is very similar to 2003
It took me about a week

But now I love office 07 to death

I'm coming around to it, but what I can't stand is how slow it's made my computer

It’s a monster. Yes, yes, the ancient laptop may not have been designed to handle it, but it’s still…. problematic. Start-up including opening Outlook doubled with the ‘upgrade.’

Washburn has a better ERA than Halladay!
That's because he's a better pitcher.

The ERA doesn’t lie!

Go Z Go!
Who is left for Washburn now?

Yankees are about it, aren’t they? Dodgers are rumored to have minimal interest, Angels and Rangers are in it, but I don’t think an intra-divisional trade is too likely.. Hmmm.

Also, looks like Morrow is going to be making his start for Tacoma tonight as planned.

White Sox.
I am glad we are keeping Morrow.

We need high upside pitching that is close to the majors.

Twins could also make a play if they are buyers (I have no clue where they stand). Rays are still a possibility if we ate some salary.

Phil Hughes!

The Yankees are using him relief because he doesn’t have a change-up but I think we should give him a chance to start.

No way in hell they give him up.
Yeah, that'd certainly be nice.. but prolly not gonna happen.
Sounds like Yanks want him most.

“With Chien-Ming Wang(notes) needing shoulder surgery and lost for the season, the Yankees are making a strong push for Seattle left-hander Jarrod Washburn(notes), according to one rival executive. What the Yankees want, they usually get, which could be bad news for the Phillies, Brewers, Rangers and Twins, all of whom had scouts watching his sharp performance Tuesday night.”

Then comes the following from FoxSports.com and Rosenthal/Morosi...
Could things really be this quiet around the New York Yankees at the trade deadline?

One major-league source said there is “nothing going on” with the Yankees at the moment.

Talks with the Mariners about left-hander Jarrod Washburn haven’t heated up yet, largely due to the fact that it’s not clear what Seattle’s asking price is.

Maybe it’s not clear yet because Z was working on finishing up the Wilson/Snell deal today?

Tomorrow hopefully things start to become a bit clearer.

I just don't see us moving him. The interest doesn't appear to be there. NY is probably

the most interested but they are suddently stingy about their prospects. I doubt they move guys like McCallister, Brackman, Betances, Romine for Washburn. And those are the types of guys I’m sure Jack wants.

Interest for starting pitching is always there.

I’m not saying he’ll be moved, but I’m sure teams are putting together offers.

Brewers being involved scares me..

I can just see a Weeks for Wash deal happening… Maybe that’s just the Bavasi-ness coming out though? Guh.

That wouldn't do anything with Beltre coming back soon

I can’t see that happening

I dont get it, wouldn't that be a good thing
I'm not a big fan of Weeks..

Looking at peripherals and stats now, I am not sure why – yay pre-conceived notions!

Weeks would be awesome
We already have too many OFs.
He's a 2nd baseman.
Grrrrrrrr...
OLNEY: Seattle content to keep Washburn
Jarrod Washburn | Mariners
ESPN The Magazine’s Buster Olney tells us the Mariners plan to keep Jarrod Washburn through the trade deadline and hope to persuade him to…

The rest is insider info so… Based on what I read it doesn’t look good…

"...sign a contract extension"

is the gist of it (from what I’ve heard).

Sadly, kinda could see this coming with the Wilson trade..

It somewhat signals that they aren’t ready to give up on this season yet.. Hopefully someone comes forward and blows Z away with an offer he can’t refuse!

I don't think the Wilson trade shows that

But Z better trade Wash. I will be very upset if he offers him a contract extension. With Wilson tying up some money next year, I am less inclined to spend our resources on a below-average 35 year old starter.

I can't believe this. No one is even offering one B prospect?

Don’t resign him to multi-year deal.

Well this day has been a pile of crap.
Seriously, couldn't we have given them a couple of the arms we sent to Pitt to make the TB-SEA-CLE work?
Doubtful.

I think Wade Davis was the dealbreaker.

To be honest, I don’t put too much stock in what Buster Olney said. Anything could still happen.

RRS's performance saved it for me
Please be posturing, please be posturing.
This is what I'm hoping too..

Cmon Z!

Hey guess what? This is off topic.

Move it to the thread I just posted.

Or at worst there are two trade deadline diaries
Heh

Griffey calls Wilson “Stevo” from Jackass

I totally noticed the resemblance earlier today too
That is awesome.

Griffey watched Jackass.

Hahahaha holy shit, he nailed it with that.
I believe our Australian piece of sex just out-pitched Roy Halladay.

I am happy today.

RRS is now officially the second sexiest behind Felix.
I was pleaently surprised to wake up and find we had beaten Roy Halladay.

Playoffs?

Boston, Tampa and Texas all losing

Progress!

How did RRS do today?
No-hitter through 6.
I bet Lopez's homerun was just terrible.
It wasn't the lamest home run he's ever hit!
Hard to pick the lamest
Yes

But they’re so diverse!

Didn't we spend like two years teaching that goodfornothing how to hit opposite field?
When we did that it broke him. Letting him be pull happy has made him much better.
When should we expect Ian's first start?
People seem to think he will be starting in AAA first
If Washburn's traded, Sunday

If Washburn isn’t traded, soon thereafter.

Wait we're still only 5.5 out of the Wild Card?

Wha?

But we are behind Boston, Texas and Tampa Bay.

So two really good teams, and one overachieving one.

In a perfect world...

Felix pitches like a maniac until October and wins the Cy Young.
Bedard comes back and goes SEVEN (!!!!) innings in every start, losing only one.
Snell comes up and pitches almost as well as Felix. When asked what turned him around he tells the press “I just fucking hated Pittsburgh and wanted to get out of that dump.”
Rowland-Smith makes Australia proud by pitching a couple no hitters and maintaining an ERA under 2.50 for the rest of the season.
Morrow comes back up with his recently rediscovered curve ball, getting revenge on the Yankees by no hitting them in New York, and proving that the Mariners made the right pick by taking him over Lincecum, as Tim goes down with a career ending injury.

The Mariners go 11-0 in the playoffs, thus ending the story of Ken Griffey Junior.

In other news.... Morrow sucks.

Good lord.

Tonight against Reno, Morrow: 4.1 IP, 8 H, 7 ER, 5 BB, 3 Ks.

Cool.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
At least he threw 100 pitches though!

Unfortunately, only 59 of them were strikes.

Someone forgot their insulin.
He's pulling an Ian Snell.

Did you hear Brandon Morrow never smiles any more?

You wouldn't smile either if chocolate could kill you.
Dogs can't smile.
Wait I thought you needed those to live.
Dan Cortes, Ian Snell and Brandon Morrow should form a club
Cortes pitched good last night.
Fuck my poor grammar.
