Dallas Braden looked really sharp yesterday.

The A's staff is going to have to carry them this year. The offense certainly isn't. I'll say also that Kurt Suzuki has turned into a lot better of a player then i ever thought he'd be.

If I were calling the shots the Sox would have drafted him. The big thing is he's going to have to hit really well as a catcher to make up for some of his defensive limitations.

Ooh, the responses from the players (and all but Schilling's last paragraph) really ticked me off. You really can feel the sense of entitlement in their remarks.

I was listening to the Braves announcers heading home today discussing those remarks. Supposedly, at some point one guy they knew brought a stopwatch to the game and simply timed all of the stuff the Yankees/Sox were doing in-between bats, whether arguing with the umps or stuff like Nomar's glove adjustments, whatever (his word was "Preening"). The total was about 45 minutes.

Still hurts to this day. Me, You and Dan badly wanted him over Lucy. Funny thing is, he hasn't been quite a stud in the bigs as I thought he'd be.

vazquez in the a.l. not surprised by his outing so far today lol a lot different than the n.l.

 

Not a surprise. I figure Javy will have an ERA around 4.50-4.75. But in his defense, I think the Rays might be the most complete team in the AL. They're going to cut up quite a few pitchers this year.

I think anything above 4 from Javy is reasonable.

 

Unfortunately, these Yankees fans forgot just how bad he was with them in 04.

It was so predictable. The Yankees scored a couple to make it 2-0 heading into the bottom of the 4th. How does Javy respond? He gives up a 5-spot. He's getting killed over at nyyfans.com.

And it's going to be the media killing that is really going to get to him.

That's what I love about the Yankees. Every year, they make at least 1 or 2 decisions that so obviously will turn out badly.
