He also played way more tourneys than were allowed to be NCAA eligible. It was just a matter of time.

well Mark has a much better second inning Getting the Twins 3 up 3 down. C'mon guys prove me wrong!!!

Hopefully Mark can at least settle down and get into the 6th or 7th inning. With Garland going tomorrow we may need those extra pitches.

LOL we may need to stuff the ballot box at the rate some players are going!

I'll bet ya an order of nachos and a Pepsi if we ever go to a Sox game together. Deal? Well there's one... There's two... and Frank looks at strike 3 to make it three I usually am not this pessimistic, but there is no way we win tonight.

Lead off double for Dustin Mohr who was hitting .125 (4-32) to start the year...

Looks like Carlos Lee is getting tonight off. Rowand is starting in CF and Rios is in LF.

Thanks guys. Computer is fixed up !

That picture is SO wrong.

I am leaving the whole personell moves out of this if what the rumors are saying is true about KW making most of the moves for JM.

OK so to spin this a little more, if KW's interference is that big of a problem why hasn't Manuel tried to unite the team against him? That is the classic strategy that was used well by Phil Jackson.

I just did a google search. I found it on a German site actually.

Major league baseball's long-standing exemption from federal antitrust regulation has no reasonable basis, Federal Reserve (news - web sites) Governor Edward Gramlich said on Friday. "Let me say, first off, loud and clear, that I agree that there is no logical argument for baseball's antitrust exemption, especially since the other pro sports do not have it," Gramlich said during a panel discussion of the sport sponsored by the centrist Brookings Institution. The discussion was held to mark the publication of a new book on baseball economics written by noted Smith College professor Andrew Zimbalist and published by Brookings. Prior to joining the Fed in 1997, Gramlich was a professor of economics and public policy at the University of Michigan and in 1992 served as staff director for an economic study on major league baseball. Gramlich said he was puzzled that pro baseball's exemption from competition, unique among major sports that have in the past seen competing leagues, had not made it much different in terms of competitive balance, the number of teams or the ability to move franchises between cities. "I strongly agree with (Zimbalist) that the antitrust exemption should go, but if it goes, short of going all the way to competitive leagues, which we don't have in any sport, how will baseball be any different from football, basketball or hockey?" he asked. Gramlich also dismissed much of the economic benefit analysis used to build local support for bids for major league franchises. "This analysis ignores just about every basic economic postulate that it's possible to ignore," he said. But he said there was a valid interest in cities keeping a franchise. "Imagine Boston without the Red Sox. Imagine Chicago without the Cubs. What would these people talk about?" he said.

You go Jose. That is exactly the kind of thing that a manager would usually be saying, but in this case it is nice to see one of the veterans step up and say what needs to be said.

The New York Jets have said all along that they would not trade up unless there was a guy available who they absolutely loved. Apparently, love is in the air. SportsLine.com has learned that the Jets have agreed on a trade with the Bears, sending Chicago the 13th and 22nd selections in the first round in exchange for the fourth overall selection. The Jets phoned the Saints earlier this week after learning that a trade between the Patriots and Bears for a similar deal seemed dead. It is believed the Jets' coveted man is Kentucky defensive tackle Dewayne Robertson. The Bears have a few players in the middle of Round 1 they have long targeted and should still be able to get at least one of them with their first of two No. 1s. The Jets are expected to announce the deal later this afternoon

What ideas do people have to fire up this team again? Fire Jerry? Bench clearing brawl? Closed door clubhouse meeting? Call ups such as Harris, Borchard, Ginter, Almonte, etc...? Extending benchings of slumpers Rearrange bullpen order, getting Glover and Wunsch into later roles?
