QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 12, 2005 -> 10:43 PM) Oh yeah, now I remember you were one of the posters defending Neyer. Why don't you do me a favor and produce a link where he says "we had one of the 5 worst off-seasons in baseball"... That's right you're only interested in pointing others lapses in memory... How's it feel to get called out on one of your own.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 12, 2005 -> 10:35 PM) Neyer said that the Sox were one of the 5 teams with the worst offseason before the season started. I said this guy was a jag-bag in another thread before but some posters here actually defended him! Neyer is a no-talent hack and he is just wrong but he doesn't have the balls to admit it. And after reading steff's post, I see that Neyer is now backtracking on his comments. What a tool. :headshake Yep that's what he said alright.... :rolly Get your burning effigies of Rob Neyer. Right Here. Just $5...

Well now we know why Valido was hitting so well.

Then you'll see Reynoso Honel replaced with B-Mac. That looks better.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ May 12, 2005 -> 01:18 AM) I was half-joking but 15 homers in 650 Ab's to 25 homers in 1400 ab's (rounded) is too close when comparing a pticher to a hitter I looked it up... Hampton's career OPS+ is 65. Timo's was 58 last year in a Sox uniform.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 11, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) Dotel was the best deadline closer last season, right? Am I missing someone? Who did Oakland give up? Teahan? Who else...? I know Teahan is a good prospect, but he certainly isn't a top prospect. They didn't have to give up their Brian Anderson (Nick Swisher) for Dotel, yet we should give up Anderson to get Wagner? And I realize that Wagner is better than Dotel, don't get me wrong. But I don't see the need in giving up Anderson/Sweeney/McCarthy... As far as the Astros were concerned, they got some guy named Beltran for the price of the Great John Buck and Dotel. Billy Beane kicked in Mike Wood and Teahan to sweeten the pot and take Dotel. Beltran, not Dotel, was the big name in that trade. Especially because Houston had Lidge ready to step up.

BWAHAHA Neifichiro! grounds into a 1-2-3 DP to end a bases loaded threat in the bottom of the ninth.

O's tied it back up 4-4

Was Ozzie taking a s*** that inning? Talk about a slow hook...

2-1 O's

1-1 Twins

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 11, 2005 -> 02:34 PM) So the great Ozzie line up has 1 hit until now I am surprised :banghead That was actually an out that hit the 2nd catwalk

Minnesota winning, Top of first, 1-0

QUOTE(shakes @ May 11, 2005 -> 02:05 PM) This is starting to remind me of the last two games. Me too we are playing the Devil Rays.

That was clutch.

Bacon Band-Aids

I think young's got a shot to be the best of them all. He's Corey Patterson with plate discipline. Edit: Referring to young. I was supposed to quote Wite.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 10, 2005 -> 11:25 PM) Marte? Luis Vizcaino....

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 10, 2005 -> 11:28 PM) And yet despite the fact our starting pitching has been great so far (have a look at every other single team in the majors), some people still want B-Mac up. I wanted him in AAA so he could learn how to avoid the longball in a bandbox. After all, USCF is not pitcher's dream. I don't really care about the strikeouts. I just want to see him simultaneously keep the walk rate and HR rate low. That will get it done at the majors.

Quick quiz.... Who leads the Sox in Blown Saves?

QUOTE(Randar68 @ May 10, 2005 -> 10:32 PM) Left 2 guys on base in the 6th who both scored after he left the game. Both HR's were solo shots. Game was at Charlotte, remember. Actually none scored. In the sixth, he gave up a HR, then a double, then a WP, then a 2 singles. The runners were stranded.

QUOTE(ISF @ May 10, 2005 -> 10:10 PM) Yeah, he was only named IL Pitcher of the month, leading the league in Ks. Oh wait, he had one bad outing tonight. He's a bust! :headshake I'll take BMac over the worthless arm we got from Milwaukee any day. He's giving up about a 1.5 HR per game in AAA. That's not going to get it done.
