i completely missed it coming out of ST, but KW has dissapointed me with the bench. That is going to rear its ugly head even more when the Sox play in NL parks

great, INF single, I think there's a rule where the Sox now have to let at least 1 run score

no homers for Delmon yet this year, I'm suprised he hasn't just accidentaly muscled one out

Danks Ks monroe, 2 out runner on 2nd`

QUOTE (G&T @ May 8, 2008 -> 01:28 PM) I really think that's what causes some of the routs like we saw last night. MB probably doesn't get lit up if he didn't feel like he had to be perfect. Maybe I'm wrong, but at some point it has to start wearing on the pitchers. that is my thought too, especially with the 3-4 hitter whiffing

how did Cuddyer steal 2nd? Did the Sox just not pay any attention to him?

and of course as I point out his low walk total... he walks someone

wow, Danks has a 27/8 K/BB ratio in 36 innings, that's nice

ugh, I just looked at Livan's baseball-reference page and it makes me even more upset about last night

well, Cy Slowey already

i'm watching this on the computer, but all the pitches to PK look like they're right in the middle of the plate

another K for Jim on a slowball

at least Jim is seeing some pitches

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ May 8, 2008 -> 01:14 PM) hes 2-0 vs the white sox is that a Joe Mays 2-0 or a legit one?

woot, CQ with a 1 out double

did the Sox face Slowey last year? He's only pitched 3 innings in MLB this year

Good inning for Danks. 1-2-3 on 10 pitches. OK, I'm ready for this today, I needed to take a break from this team after that horrible approach against Livan yesterday

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/ (link for the McCain on the Daily Show article) I imagine you will see similar appearances from him until the Dems settle what they're going to do once and for all. He'll probably start a little campaigning against Obama, but hold off full Obama mode until Hill bows out graciously (oh wait, it's too late for that)

I think the current media climate is a big part of keeping some people away. It's hard enough to open your whole life to scrutiny, but then you're asking your family members to do it as well.

QUOTE (G&T @ May 7, 2008 -> 03:18 PM) Criminal Procedure and Trusts and Estates. Legal professions was exactly as I expected it to be so that was ok. The other two were totally ridiculous. Apparently the high score from last year in T&E was like 40% for this professor. Meanwhile, one of the deans at the school said that criminal procedure is the hardest exam at the school. Believe me, they both lived up to their billing. I remember evidence being the same way. I got a B+ on what must have been a massive curve. The T & E for me wasn't bad (called Wills and Trusts at DePaul). It was straightforward, I think I got like a B because it wasn't overly hard and it was curved. Basically the prof threw in a few hidden gems and those who nailed those got the As. The easiest for me was my Family Law class. I was clerking at a family law firm at the time and a lot of people in the class had little to no experience with it. The final was basically what I was doing 20-30 hours a week at my job! I guess the hardest one I remember dealing with was Evidence... of course not counting the ultimate final THE BAR EXAM!!!!!

QUOTE (G&T @ May 7, 2008 -> 12:15 PM) The last 6 days have brought me a criminal procedure final, legal professions final, and trusts and estates final. That was awful and very difficult. anyone particularly harder out of those? I remember my evidence final being such a nightmare, like lying awake at night worrying I failed it (I didn't, got a B on a curve)

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 7, 2008 -> 03:02 PM) His weakness is pitchers changing speeds a lot on him, though. He might have trouble with this guy. I hope not, but that is what I am seeing so far. He looks silly when pitchers go all over the place speed-wise. on the flipside, hopefully this is the type of pitcher Swisher can come around against. He usually sees a lot of pitches, and hopefully he'll get a good read on him

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 7, 2008 -> 11:51 AM) Going into today, depending on what site you look at, Clinton's lead in supers was between 10 and 15. I'll stick with my earlier prediction that Obama takes the lead in supers by the time of the WV primary. thanks for the Clinton numbers, I had no idea that the 4 super delegate number was so huge. I'm now wondering if there might to be strong momentum to put more pressure on Hillarly, people might not want to stand alone against her, but once more and more come out asking her to step down, it might be a flood. McGovern, a Clinton backer, coming out today isn't exactly what I'm looking for since, while he still has cache in the dem party, he doesn't exactly have a political future to worry about. If Dean or Gore or someone of that ilk make a strong statement about her pulling out, that would be a serious hit.

Looks like Lieber struggled in his first appearance back in the rotation. He gave up 4 homeruns in the 2nd, 3 solo and a 2 run shot
