If we make the playoffs
I agree with you. I am mad at a couple of things. The Sox didn't get many hits, but when they had the opportunities they didn't come through. Manuel has to stress those points after a loss like todyas and use it as an example of what not to do offensively.

Appier Gone!
Don't be shocked if you see Grienke called up if the rotation gets in any more shambles.

Appier Gone!
Appier won a couple games for them and thats all that matters to the Royals. it was worth it to them just to get that little bit out of him.

More september callups
Yep...I'm guessing they are opening a spot to move someone not on the 40 to the 40. I think thats what they did with Rios. They moved Rios to the 40 and designate Porzio. Porzio now has to clear waivers and if he does then he's back with the Sox, although he could be a minor league free agent or something.

Bartolo
If Frank is three to four steps off the bag at second in the first inning, he's toast. The ball was no more then 30 feet out of the infield, and Walker just let it drop. 3 steps and looking at the infielder. Walker has to turn and then make a throw. He should easily get back in time at that distance, imo.

Boston comes to town: 9/2 Gamethread
I wonder if we'll see much of Miles. I don't know how they could get him in, since he isn't really a shortstop. I'd be playing a bit more of Graffy right now. And once again, I'll say that I would only want Jose back at a cheap rate next year (like a mill) and if that option vests it better be because he earned at bats down the stretch.

Both pitchers have failed to live up to their hype, but in the 2nd half both have been much better and if they can dominate the rest of the way and pitch good in the playoffs (if they get there) then I'll be happy. I know the guys can flat pitch and I hope both of them are wearing Sox uni's for a long time.

Bartolo
Agreed...heck of a start. Its too bad Carlos hit into the doubleplay. Williamson made a good pitch and Carlos didn't really try to pull it, unfortunately it went right to the 2nd baseman. In the 1st I thought it was a joke that Frank wasn't on 3rd. I never got to see a good replay on Frank's baserunning, but he must of really f'd it up. He should of been at least 4 steps off of 2nd waiting to see if the ball would be caught. Considering the 2nd baseman fielded it, bobbled it and then had to turn around to make a throw there is no freaking excuse to get thrown out. I'd say that was probably the key play of the game. I had the BoSox cast and they didn't talk about it, and I don't know whether Hawk and DJ did, but I'd say that was bigger then Clee's double play. I will excuse Lee cause things happen and Carlos has been doing really good, but bad baserunning I don't excuse at least not too often, especially on a play like that. Still hell of a game, too bad it was a loss, but its huge to shutdown the best offense in the majors.

Kip Wells Outduels Dontrelle
Another stellar start by the Kipster. Isn't that the 2nd time he's outdueled the young Marlin lefty. Either way, way to go Kip. You'll always be one of my favorite Sox.

Drew Henson to go back to NFL
Agreed. Joey B has had made a lot of adjustments already, but nothing can make up for playing full time as a kid and Joe never did that. He seems to be making strides in Charlotte and I'd say he has a shot to stick with a club next season, although he may find himself in Charlotte for almost the full year. After taht, pencil him in next to Reed and most likely Maggs. I'd say they could pay Maggs depending on what happens. Maggs is so good at this point and I think he'll only get better. He's the definition of a franchise guy and that should be a great defensive outfield and a very productive offensive one.

Prospect Hot Sheet Finale!
Probably Everett's roster spot and Borchard will take Harris' or vice versa.

New Toronto Blue Jays logo
I think their current one is pretty cool.

Prospect Hot Sheet Finale!
Way to go Jeremy. I look forward to the day when he's romping the outfield at the cell. He's gonna be good.

Paul Konerko!
Way to go Paulie

Ramirez
Manny can help carry that team, so it will be nice to not see him for 2 of the three games.

Geeze...this thread sure was a weird one. First off, for those that don't like WSC just ignore him. He does have the right to post on this board. As I've said numerous times I don't buy into the banning people stuff. That definately leads to a bit more scurmishes, but I think the benefits (ie...free speach) outway the cons (ie...the ocassional spat). With that being said, if for some reason you think someones post is stupid, move on from that post and ignore it. Saying its stupid only leads to a long thread of stupidity...in a sense. And as far as WSC goes, I don't know what this thread is even here for. This isn't Sox and Roll's message board. SnR is an affiliate of this site and we are a team, but there views and ours are completely independent. If you want to talk to them about something, then talk directly to them. We support SnR...the people there are good and they've helped this site many a time. Anyway, lets try not to jump on everyones backs all the time. We are all Sox Fans and lets enjoy this September and if this team plays to their level...then this October as well

Being a sports agent is my backup plan

stupid cubs won
Zambrono owns too. Zambrono and Webb are probably my two favorite righties in the NL along with Prior.

What I did on my my week off
Where she's sucking on the lolly-pop? although the disease we find out she had kinda killed it for me...That's why I'd be scared doing anything with skanky girls like that...Gotta make sure you put on 3 condoms and wrap the girls in saran warp.. Ya that one. Your right it wasn't as good after the disease line right near the end. But that one scene was good. Damn she was hottt.

B.Bonds
Bonds is an unbelievable player and his dad was really good. He's gonna get the attention. I just think it suks that he starts getting a really big increased attention because his father was on his death bed and then eventually died. I mean there really wasn't much about 70 (in comparison to Sosa/BigMac). I know there is that whole attitude thing, but it seems like Barry is getting 100 times the respect during this whole sad incident.

Minor League Boxes for 9/1
There isn't an open slot on the 40 either is there? I Know Rios went down to Charlotte cause he has family there and thus far in Charlotte he's been an great leader and mentor/teacher to the players.
