Lima returning to Houston?

Neither would I. Used to be one of my favorite Astro pitchers since 98-00, along with Mike Hampton.

 

So they can bring back the CASA OLE commericial ?

 

I haven't seen Lima pitch since his Astros days. But has he corrected that problem with giving up long flyballs? Dodger stadium is a much better pitcher's park than MMP.

 

I loved Lima. He was my idol for a couple of years. I remember a game in the Dome when Lima was out egging on the crowd before first pitch, maybe visiting BP. I've never experienced a player trying to amp up the fans before a game, especially for a regular season game he wasn't going to play in. I had a perma-smile. I leaned over looking into my friend's eyes and told her that I was going to bear Lima's children. I adamantly told her that if the Astros ever got rid of him, I'd buy a copy of Lima's meringue CD and push it to all of my friends. It would be the only music I would listen to for months. When he was traded for Dave Mlicki, I bought Lima's CD, found the address of a Tigers season ticket holder and I mailedd the CD with a picture of myself with a picture of myself in complete joy.

Lima is older, wiser and every bit as volatile as he was before. Jose Lima was a confident man but after he looked the devil in the face, he's never been the same since. It was a pissing contest and the Crawford Boxes smacked him around so hard that even the Tigers didn't want him. He had to grovel and shine shoes in Newark until he fanagled his way into a concessions job with the Bears. I was on the edge of my seat cheering on Lima in the NLDS. Since I turned 30, I can't afford any sudden cardiac problems and Lima would certainly increase the rate of stroke and heartattacks in the greater Houston area. Lima might be able to start the season with a decent week or two in Houston but once the LF line got into his head, he'd implode. I'd rather have Chris Holt pitch for the Astros and I hate that spineless terd. Lima remains one of my favorite players. I hope he either ponies up in LA or in Shea.

 

Nope, he catch pitch in this park.

 

Exactly; you guys must be forgetting 2000. Jose Lima cannot pitch at Minute Maid Park.

 

EEES LIMA TIME!
BEEELIEEEVE IT!

 

How can you expect any pitcher to catch his own pitch? I think we're expecting too much from Lima.

 

As long as he brings back his wife.

 

Stay the hell away from Lima. I can see another 40 HR allowed season from him in this park.

 

If Lima comes to town, we're all going to have to donate batteries for Dave2000's camera.

 

I don't see any harm in trying to bring him in for spring training. The guy has an uncanny knack for performing above his ability. I love guys like that (Bill Spiers).

 

I mean he can come in and at least give us what he's got.

He did alright in a stint with detroit and had a good season with the Dodgers but of course those were not minute maid park.

He did give up 33 home runs this season so that's nothing new really.

But even in the year he went 21 - 10 he gave up 30 home runs so he can possibly do it again if given a chance.

 

Ha, your camera is better than mine, plus you go to more Astros games than I do.

 

Not going to happen. Lima wants a paycheck, and Uncle Drayton isn't giving him one.

 

'The Limas are back!!

 

No we are expecting anything from Lima b/c he not going back.

 

What's the problem? So, we get rid of Tal's hill (sp?) and get rid of the Crawford boxes, problems solved.

Carlos and Beltran, come hither.......

 

Nice boobie job.
