  1. I don't care what we did against the junk pitcher in Wakefield yesterday. This offense can't hit righty breaking stuff consistently.
  2. I'm so happy we gave up the out also trying to play smallball.
  3. f***ing pathetic. STOP SWINGING FOR THE MOTHER f***ING FENCES!
  4. QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:55 PM) He's been our best clutch hitter all year, I'd take him in that 3 spot right now over anyone we got. I agree
  5. Terrible f***ing AB by Everett there. Swinging out of his ass instead of trying to get the runner in.
  6. QUOTE(Wanne @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:48 PM) What I'm talkin about is...didn't you notice Varitek on Gooch and Timo's last K....the dude's standing up for God's sake....that's what I'm talkin about. They knew the Sox were running. It was a 2 strike high fastball to Timo. That's why he was standing. Also, he was standing for Pods cause who didn't know he was running? In case you haven't noticed, that's the way Varitek is behind home. He stands taller than any catcher I've seen.
  7. QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:44 PM) Who was that one bench coach we had that was supposed to be the best sign stealer in the game? He retired a few years ago because of heart problems or something. Nossek?
  8. Duque's looking sharper now. Just no more fastballs down the cock to Manny, and he might have a chance to give up less than 4 runs tonight.
  9. QUOTE(Wanne @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:42 PM) Is it just me...or do the Red Sox seem to be stealing signals and know when the Sox are running? What are you talking about? We have no one to blame but ourselves for the base running blounders. It's not like the Red Sox are doing pitch-outs.
  10. Nothing like seeing a bench player get overexposed. Why even bother calling up Gload if you're not going to use him? Keep us in the game Duque!
  11. Rowand44......will you say something negative if PK gets caught stealing now?
  12. Considering we score a lot of our runs at home because of the homer, that might not be a very good idea.
  13. QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:31 PM) The Duke's just got to shut them down now. We'll score some runs today. We should be able to. Miller's stuff is nothing like what is was with the Astros. This ump also has a small zone, so we can afford to be patient.
  14. QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:29 PM) El Duque calls his own game. Its what caused the friction between he and Posada in NY. They hated each other. El Duque deck him once. Thanks for that information.
  15. Holy f***ing s***. This is absolutely ridiculous. BTW.....AJP, please stop calling for fastballs down the plate to Manny.
  16. QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:24 PM) Who calls that call? Scott was off the bag for a milli second. I have never seen that called; the only time I have seen that is when the runner's whole body comes off the bag. That call was s***. Disagree. If the guy is off the base, he's out. It's a fluke play, but the right call.
  17. QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:22 PM) El-Duque has 5 quality starts in 12 starts. Not good. Thing is, he isn't going to be completely healthy the rest of the year. He's shown no ability to be effective with his injury.
  18. QUOTE(CYGarland @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:19 PM) And you want JC on the mound in the playoffs? Personally i don't want to see either of them come playoff time. I to God KW can work some magic in the next 8 days Yes, I'd want Contreras on the mound in a heartbeat over Duque. At least Contreras has the ability to shut the other team down. Duque, on a good night, will still give up 4 runs.
  19. QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 11:17 PM) Paging A.J. Burnett, your plane is boarding for Chicago. El-Duque gives up to many runs, you can't trust him. If we get Burnett, Duque would still be in the rotation.
  20. I don't know why Contreras is the pitcher we're trying to replace, when Duque is the obvious liability in the rotation. Screw his playoff experience....I don't want him close to the mound if we make the postseason.
  21. Why do we keep letting Manny beat us on the fastball? Duque has no chance against this lineup
  22. My personal favorite is when people suggest we should trade PK to the Reds in order to get Griffey Jr.
  23. How's the weather looking like for tonight.
  24. QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 23, 2005 -> 08:47 PM) West Coast Crede offensively, just nowhere as good defensively. Crede is a much bigger threat at the plate than Burroughs. Burroughs has no power at all. He's been a massive flop so far.
