AH, finally someone else that likes the Jays although I doubt they wil beat the evil empire.

 

Rippaldi is the best GM in baseball.  I also got to add, despite saying all this nice stuff about the Cubs pitching staff, I think they miss the playoffs because of injuries.  Baker is destroying his pitchers.

Riccardi took over a $88 million payroll, trimmed it to $58 million and the team improved last year. This season, ownership asked J.P to cut anohter $5 mill from da payroll, and every1 thinks they'll be even betta. I think he's da best GM at da moment too.

Interesting how the folks who are the most optimistic on the Cubs chances are Sox fans.....

 

 

As for Remlinger, his problem is a sore shoulder.

I think his opinion is based on the fact that he is a baseball fan as opposed to Sox fan.

Elo won 21 last year.  Prior won 19.  Elo's era was half a run higher, subtract 1 for playing in the AL and he's better.

 

Since 2000 Mark is 49 - 34 V Wood is  38 - 28, Garland is 30- 32 V Zambrano is 18 - 21. Schoenwiess is 22 - 21 Clement is 26 - 23.

 

Maddux used to be a great pitcher, no one knows how much he has left in the tank.  Wright is becoming a very good pitcher.

 

I'd take the Sox starters over the grub any day of the week.  I hope everybody keeps lapping up the BS about the vaunted pitching up north.  I'm going to win a lot of money from blue vermin fans this year.

An intelligent poster!!!!

 

All hail TLAK!!!

Prior, Mercker and Remlinger are already down. Bakers a great manager?  McKeon absolutely undressed him, Dusty is a moron.  Clement an ace?  Then how come he was 14-12 last year for the greatest team ever assembled in the history of baseball?

 

They finished precisely one game ahead of a Houston team that lost it's #1 starter for a third of the season. Oswalt's back to 94 mph now and they added Pettitte and Clemens.  Jeff Kent is healthy after missing about 30 games last year, I agree with Chisoxfn on them, they are pretty damn good.  Also the Cardinals had all sorts of trouble and were still only 3 back.  With that offense if they get any luck at all with the pitchers they are also going to be very good. The Blue Vermin are not going to finish higher than 3rd. 

 

Enough grub talk, I really don't care where they wind up.

 

My divisional picks for 2004:

 

Toronto

White Sox

Seattle

WC:  Boston

 

Houston

San Francisco

Florida

WC:  Atlanta

I am nominating TLAK for 2004 Soxtalk "Poster of the Year"!

 

I will buy you beers ANYTIME!!!

Prior is perhaps the best starter in all of baseball right now. 

 

You can't be this stupid.

Change the tense, Mr. Prior is not playing any baseball at all just now.

 

Also, please educate me and explain how a mild sprain that has not healed in 5 months will be all gone in 3 weeks? I think this guy's got a tear and they're gonna have to open his leg.

 

Finally, yes I can be this stupid. :lol:

Mark Prior might miss a start or two at the beginning of the season, but that's the extent of it.
