southsider2k5 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 in the most disappointing team of the year poll... Somehow we still can't beat the Twins http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2011/09/poll..._medium=twitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenksycat Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 How could the Twins have had any hype? They lost their entire bullpen, Morneau is ruined, Mauer is hurt. Stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVSoxFan Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 You know what would be fun, to go back and find all the pre-season predictions to see where everybody had us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had us as a complete team, built to take on the Red Sox in the ALCS, because we had the makings of a dynamite rotation, a good offense (ha!) and bullpen, whereas Boston just had the holy-f***-offense. The worst part? Had any of Morel, Beckham, Rios, or (especially) Dunn performed not abysmally with the bat, we'd be right there, ready to take on the BoSox or Yankees.

kitekrazy Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) I've probably seen more "expert" predictions rarely pick the Sox to win the division. Edited September 8, 2011 by kitekrazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a prediction. But I want to let all of Soxtalk know that if Thornton sports a better K-rate, WHIP, FIP, save% and saves overall than Soria I will get the Bieber tattoo. And to make it more interesting, he only has to trump Soria in 3 of those 5 categories for me to get the tat. J4L keeps his word. So save this post. Put it in your sigs or whatever. I'm fairly positive (without looking) that Thornton does have a better K-rate, WHIP, and FIP. And IMO, those are the only stats of the 5 that actually showcases talent.

Jordan4life_2007 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 (edited) lol. Get outta here. Why would I throw saves/save% in there as two of the categories (I have no idea why I said save%, as that stat sucks) if I didn't mean as the closer?
