I decided to check out the garbage that Posnaski had to spew so far this season -- 4/20/04 -- Royals record = 4-8 4GB 4/26/04 -- Royals record = 6-11 5GB 5/02/04***My Favorite*** -- Royals record = 7-16 7.5GB More to come --

I can't seem to get the audio to work today --- but here's an interesting quote from the PBP on the Bats website -- no I dea what that's about -- Wish I could listen

10-3 in the 4th right now -- don't know if DW's been lifted or not -- it doesn't look pretty.

ACtually I read it more closely -- There was only one quote that looked the same -- The Herald piece was more of a sob story than this one was.

is that from today's paper -- It looks like a cut and paste job from a story that appeared in the Herald a couple weeks ago.

according to MILB.com -- Louisville is leading 6-1 after 2 -- they had a 6 run second inning against presumably DW.

Reed played --had 3 RBI's -- although one was on a groundout and another was a sac fly.

i'm partial to this one

except one -- Probably the most important one -- Podsednick - March 18, 1976 Crawford - August 5, 1981 ---------------------- Podsednick was playing in the Gulf Goast league before Crawford's 13th birthday

Rauch started -- went 4.2IP -- Diaz pitched yesterday .2IP. He came on in relief of Grilli.

Valenzuela unties it -- with his 4th HR of the series -- Knights lead 6-3 top sixth --

Rauch didn't last long in tonights outing either -- He got yanked in the 5th, after a couple hits and a walk in the inning -- 4.2 IP game tied at 3

:fyou Mondesi -- He's on my fantasy team -- Well he's riding the bench on my fantasy team.

Pitching Staff The Sox Road ERA is 3.60 -- 3rd in the AL -- They also rank in the top 3 on the road in BAA, SLG, & OPS Despite the good pitching splits on the road, The Sox have a losing record away from home The sox Home ERA is 5.31 -- Next to last in the AL -- Despite bad pitching splits at home, The Sox have a winning record at home, only Anahiem and Texas have a better home winning percentage. Scott Schoeneweis leads the team in Quality starts with 5 -- the others all have 3 -- DW obviosly had none. Damaso Marte leads the AL in Blown Saves blowing 3 saves in 5 save opportunities -- David Riske and Curtis Leskanic have also blown 3 saves in 5 chances. Billy Koch has blown 1 save in 6 opportunities. Loiaza, Garland, and Buerhle all have recieved good run support, averaging over 6 runs per game. Shoeneweis has recieved less than 4 runs per game support Jon Garland ranks 9th in the AL in ERA in innings 1-6 -- He has a 11.57 ERA after the 6th inning The relievers have posted a 3.86 ERA, but have been utilized less than any other pen in the AL -- Oakland has the same #of IP out of the pen in one less game -- and we don't have the starting staff that oakland does. Batting Stats Sox lead the AL in HR's, yet rank 9th in Runs Sox lead the AL in HR's, yet rank 10th in 2B's Sox lead the AL in SH(bunts) with 15, detroit is second with 10 11 of those SH's came with runners in scoring position, (meaning the runner was moved to third), yet on the season the Sox have only 9 Sac Fly's. What's the point in getting the run over if you're not getting them in. Sox have only grounded into 22 DP's -- they seem to be staying out of the twin killing more this year -- Our Leadoff hitter has batted .317 for the year, 3rd in the AL -- We have not hit well behind our leadoff man, however. The leadoff man has only scored 15 times in 30 games, tied for 12th of 14 AL teams The #2 hitter has only hit a surprising .295, I thought it would have been higher with Uribe spending alot of time there #4 hitter has only driven in 14 runs -- Last in the AL #5 hitter has only driven in 11 runs -- 13th in the AL #9 hitter has driven in 20 runs -- 2nd in the AL -- also leads the AL in SH's from the 9-hole with 6. as a team, the sox are batting .259 w/RISP -- while only hitting 9 of thier leage leading 42 HR's Comparitively the Sox are batting .290 with none on, and have 27 HR's

no next year -- Right at this time -- only about a year left.

Alex -- I can't quite put my finger on it, but you seemed more relaxed in this interview -- Great job.

What the hell --- I wanna pic of he without her head stuffed up an oversized sausage's ass. --- I remember her being cute, and legal (20?) ---

Screw that -- You're getting a sig with Carl Crawford, Brett Boone, and Konerko in it.... The three of them won the week for you -- they had 1 RBI,3 runs scored, 0SB, between the 3 of them, and batted under .150. --------------- Seriously though -- I'll work on it this week --

3 straight weeks

I have heard you say it Brando -
