QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jun 11, 2005 -> 03:58 AM) Wow did Pods just swing and miss at the same pitch 3 times? Yep, the Seanez change-up. Looking at his K rate this year, I take it a lot of people have done that. That was vintage Pods from last year though.

Watch Timo try and steal 3rd base here.

Whew, that was too close for my blood pressure. Get him over Pods!

Pods just needs to make contact here. He's overswinging.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Jun 11, 2005 -> 03:55 AM) lol I love it when Timo makes us look stupid. But normally that doesn't happen. Agreed. I have no dignity anyways, so I'm not too proud to congratulate him, even though I dislike him.

Timo! Very well done, and nice to finally see the hit-and-run. We need to get at least one run in this situation.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 11, 2005 -> 03:53 AM) Cotts doesn't have the best splits against lefties this season, just throwing that out there FWIW. But I'm very confident he'll get the job done still. But you know Ozzie and his love for L/L match-ups, etc.

Ozzie's affection for Timo is simply mind-boggling. He better get the bunt down.

We're going to see Cotts in the 8th. Padres have a ton of lefties at the top of their order. I have no problem with Cotts being put in, but Ozzie needs to be proactive, rather than reactive if Cotts looks anything less than sharp.

Great catch by Rowand there....but for the love of god Ozzie, if your pitcher gives up liner after liner, take his ass out! Was it not obvious to Ozzie that Garland had nothing that inning? Thankfully we still have the lead.

QUOTE(robin_ventura_eternal @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:58 PM) you cant hate loaiza that much though. he gave the sox a cy young calibur year and once he left, he was never that good. he sucked for the yanks, pitches for the nationals right now, hes doing so-so if memory serves me correctly. No way would I say Loaiza is hated. Not only did he give us an amazing season which we could have never expected, we also got Contreras out of the deal.

I hate Danny Wright. The guy was so painful to watch.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:47 PM) Not a problem. The situation is fixed. Also thanks for being cool about everything Fathom Not a problem. Please delete anything else which you think is necessary.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:45 PM) fathom.. don't mean to sound like a mother hen here.. but would ya mind halting this conversation. Could turn into big trouble for the site. No, I agree. I deleted the post. I honestly didn't mean to cause any problem. Mods, please delete whatever you feel necessary.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:43 PM) Please don't, seriously. If you guys want to PM about it go ahead, but something like this could be considered libel if it isn't true. Fair enough. Anyone can PM if they want to know the "rumor". Sorry mods if I caused trouble.

QUOTE(robin_ventura_eternal @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:40 PM) make that the mets now. pedro's queer! Nope, not Pedro.

Kevin Walker is pretty high on my list right now.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:37 PM) Good grief.. can we please stay on topic here people..??? Agreed, sorry. I didn't want to start a whole new topic about another steroid accusation though.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:36 PM) Hmmm Manny, Ortiz, Millar, Nomar(at the time he was on the BoSox), Varitek? Trot Nixon was always someone who people believed might have been on the juice. He put on like 30 lbs in the offseason one year. This same scout told me that an extremely high-profile player on the Red Sox is gay.

QUOTE(robin_ventura_eternal @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 07:32 PM) not much to do with this topic, but im watching the cubs bosox game on mlb.com tv right now, and damn, arroyo is getting his ass kicked, its 7-1 cubs in the 3rd. as much as i hate the cubs, its good to have the team that, should the twins surpass us, we would contend w/ for the wildcard. for the first time in my life i have the urge to say...go cubs?!?? I think it's funny that a lot of the Red Sox hitters have seen their power numbers go down this year (in the season of steroid testing). I was told by a MLB scout early last year that the Red Sox had a roster full of steroid abusers. This was said well before steroids became a big issue in baseball.

At least Sirotka never did anything after we traded him. I have a lot more hatred for Navarro. What a tool, and he sucked for the Sox a lot longer than Wells did.

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 03:58 AM) Is this the first time the sox have broke into double digits? No, we scored 10 at Toronto.

QUOTE(chimpy2121 @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 03:56 AM) I definately laughed at it cuz it was a funny post. Sorry for the confusion. Well, I apologize for the confusion also. I'm just going to delete my post about explaining it was a joke.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 03:52 AM) Why do you seem so surprised that someone laughed at your joke? I always thought that particular icon wasn't in favor of that particular post. If I am wrong, then I feel like a dumbass and will edit my post obviously.

It looks like we found our back-up 1B for PK. His name is none other than Clifford Politte!!!!! Now, we can release Timo after tonight.
