QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 17, 2008 -> 03:30 AM) Who was honestly hurt by Oney Guillen's promotions throughout the Sox minor league system? Absolutely no one. Which is why i find it amusing to see people complain about it. He got promoted to Kanny b/c they needed a reserve IF to play once a week. If they had promoted someone with actual talent, playing that little would only hinder their development. He then got promoted to AAA b/c they needed an IF for one game. They werent going to sign anyone for one game and they werent about to promote someone off of Birmingham or W-S when they were getting ready for the playoffs. His promotions this year, IMO, are a complete non-issue. I find it funny that others are actually bothered by this. Signing him after drafting him in the 36th roundas minor league fodder hurt absolutely no one. Our job is make sure all 6 of our farm teams have enough players after all.

Oops I Crapped My Pants

I was supposed to be at the games today and tomorrow but i'm not gonna be able make it down cuz of work. Argh.

Atlantic City is ridiculously awesome. I was just there this weekend. Of course, based on how much I ended up spending there, it's also ridiculously evil.

This actually is quite significant. As far who would start, it partly would depend on their rest. If it was less than 3 days I wouldnt consider them. It's a tough call.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 12, 2008 -> 02:22 PM) Mexico must not count. Fernandez and Rodriguez don't even show up. Ya i noticed it really only includes NA, Europe, India, Australia/NZ, Argentina and Japan.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 12, 2008 -> 02:35 PM) Can someone bump the thread from when AJP signed with the Sox, or is that long gone from the archives? I bet its not gone, but since we cant use the search feature anymore, it would be very hard to find it

Damn i'm gonna be in Atlantic City saturday so i prolly wont be able to see it

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Sep 12, 2008 -> 09:34 AM) I got the Paulie bug after his walk off in MN I think in '03. The one that pulled him out of his funk... Did we play a home game there then?

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Sep 12, 2008 -> 10:59 AM) I always wondered if this whole "fence" thing is really gonna work. I mean as Ian Malcom puts it "Life finds a way." Do you know if they are building it like 20 feet into the ground to deter tunnels as well? A friend of mine was just sent out to New Mexico a couple months ago to be a border guard. He shot himself in the leg on accident in one of his first weeks there. Just thought it was funny and i'd share. We mock him constantly now. As far as the fence issue, I'd really like to know more about what the two candidates opinions on the fence is. I think I have an idea, but i dont know definitively.

QUOTE (scenario @ Sep 11, 2008 -> 04:53 PM) 13th round actually. Sounds crazy now doesn't it? And wasnt Piazza undrafted?

I voted for him fairly high b/c while he was here he was one of my favorites, and thats how I voted, on how I felt while they were here.

QUOTE (Steff @ Sep 11, 2008 -> 03:24 PM) ASSume whatever you like. Those using the quote are using text from McCain's own mouth. No ASSumption there. You're right. So because someone says something, other people have the right to manipulate it however they please apparently. And thats okay. I mean, leading people to believe one thing that it isnt is technically not lieing so that makes all the difference!

QUOTE (Steff @ Sep 11, 2008 -> 03:17 PM) What would you call it? Restarting it? I mean if it's already going... keeping it going.. is... continuing it... no? Ah, so apparently to continue a war it is now assumed that means for 100 years? Gotchya...

By the way, how ridiculous is it that Joe Mauer is hitting .365 at home for the season?

HUGE win by KC! Hopefully this charges our guys up a little bit to put another game between them and the twinkies

2 out!

Royals go in order. Nathan only threw 15 pitches so he can probably give them another inning

Wow, Twins looked bad at the plate there for once. If KC could somehow score here, Minny would have the bottom of their order up in the 9th

8 pitch inning for Liriano and they head to the bottom of the 8th with Mauer and Morneau due up. Liriano only at 95 pitches.

Tied still going into the 8th
