After this season, move the f***ing fence back Don't do that, but I sure wish everybody would swing like Iggy.

Dye is really killing us. Hope he gets it going. His automatic out is not helping.

Our lead goes from 5 to 1 1/2 in just over 3 1/2 days. --That's baseball. But we shoulda won this one in the ninth. We ain't got much punch in our order that's for sure. Hate to waste another great pitching outing at home.

I think it's great oz speaks his mind. We've wanted the Sox to be more aggressive since passive, yet sometimes effective Jerry Manuel. At least Oz deserves respect unlike that buffoon loudmouth, Bevington. I like Oz's style.

Friday should be packed --Are you kidding me? In April/May, vs. the Tigers? No way it's packed. 25,000 maybe.

That guy can eat it. I love Hawk Harrelson and I bet most sox fans do also.

I loved the comparison somebody made a few weeks ago of dye looking like Michael Jordan when he played baseball. I don't dislike Dye but he sure is an easy out right now. Is Anderson a great prospect? Would we be rushing him to bring him up now? How's Borchard doing in the minors? I'm too lazy to look it up. I say give rf to Joe B!! He can't hit any worse than Dye and when he connects it'll be a 500 foot bomb.

This team is playing so well it's hard to say. If Garland and Crede are for real and Everett keeps knocking in runs like this we'll win the league by 6 games I feel.

What a masterpiece. I'm so glad Oz left him in the ninth. No reason to not let him go all the way. Man was Garland in control. Nice, fluid pitching motion. As dominant as a guy can be in only striking out three or so. Glad Kenny and Oz and Coop didn't give up on him. He looks like he's turned his career up a notch. And he gets us off to a good start in a place we never win the opening game of a series. Way to go, Jon.

I agree, enjoy it while we can. It's better to be this record than 2 below .500. And don't forget our team changes when Frank returns. Just enjoy. We are playing good baseball.

Fantastic post, Jim. That wasn't a rant. It was educational.

I know there's another thread on Joe, but what in the heck is going on? He's become a stud. With his defense, if he can hit .300 allyear like this, wow, we may have something special going. Kill this thread if its superfluous, but I love Joe!

I've never given up on joe, either, so also count me in.

Man we are getting the job done. hope it continues. Who'd a thunk Crede and Garland would look like they belong. All of KW's acquisitions are doing well. We are winning and acting like we are winners. This is awesome. Hope we can keep it rolling.

There's no such thing as a jinx you fruit-cakes I liked the use of the word fruit-cakes in that sentence. Made me laugh more than had you used a cuss word. Good stuff. I don't believe in jinx's either. But it is uncanny how stuff happens jinxish.

Good column, good rebuttal. Interesting topic. I won't complain, how could anybody complain as we've won all 4 series? But it will be interesting to see if and when some of our guys start hitting. It seems the columnist doesn't think our starting pitching will be this good all the way through? I prefer to think it's for real. If our pitching's for real, we should be in the hunt all year. But it would be nice to see Dye, Joe, Timo, Rowand start hitting.

amazing, amazing, amazing. Mark B and Paulie, way to go!

Congrats to Jon; great game; glad he got the decision. It's amazing to think a hit off dustin and he gets a no decision. Way to pitch, Jon!

Why do we have to lower our expectations like that? Why can't we be mad at the true cause of tonight's loss? --You mean the one bad pitch by Mark B that got taken out by Hunter? No room for error vs. Mr. Cy Young and we lose. But we win the series, which is big. On to the next series. We need to win that one, too and keep plugging away.

Nice double by Joe. He's got talent. Maybe our organization's patience with him will pay off.

Carlos Lee. p.s. Chris Singleton ain't on my top 10 list.

I was hoping the two early runs coupled with a homer by Paulie would be enough. But we didn't get the Paulie homer, understandably, since this guy can pitch like a fiend. Maybe we'll get luck in the late innings and pull it out for da sweep.

Good to be off to the nice start. Means nothing except we're happy. And it is mighty nice to beat teams in our division. If we can keep winning series, dat's what it takes, though a sweep of the twinks would be awesome.

Way to come back strong, shingo! good win.

Too bad the M's didn't take Crede instead of Jeremy Reed.
