QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:15 PM) I'm sorry, but if I had my money on the line, I would not pick this team to win the division this year. I don't think many people did. This is the prove me wrong year for us like I've said multiple times. I just don't see us doing much even though our pitching keeps me optimistic.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:12 PM) Not sure he could have caught it, but Erstad took way too long retrieving it. With a runner racing towards home, you need to show more intensity going after the ball. You can tell he tried to sell it to the runner. But maybe his dumbass should have realized that it was two outs.

Pitching and defense wins championships I've heard. Can't have one without the other.

Our defense now is laughable mostly Uribe and Gooch.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:08 PM) Nah. If Brian pulled up like Erstad did on that play, he would have been "lollygagin' it" according to hawk. But Erstad did everything right. Very true.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:07 PM) You are joking right? There is NO chance BA gets to that. Anybody for that matter QUOTE(beautox @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:06 PM) Brian would've had that. Already two people think so. Not sure about you but IMO BA would have at the very, very least made it close.

Sisco has a John Rocker-like sprint to him.

Uribe has been horrible defensively. i wonder if BA would have got that... nvm... he would have.

Dude Sizemore WTF is wrong with you 0-4 1 K?

QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 02:01 PM) pitching hasn't been a problem... yet It's funny cause at the beginning of this season, that was our main concern, not the hitting. Well at least the Tigers are losing even though the Blue Jays are trying really heard to get them back in that game.

I must have Tivo cause that was pretty slow.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:56 PM) I'm going to keep track of his next several starts after this. I'll guarantee he won't come anywhere close to this line. While your at it, update your Danks line to your sig.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:54 PM) I can't believe Rich Hill and Paul Byrd are going to win the Cy Young. Thank god at least King Felix is going to give him at least a run at it at least in Byrd's case.

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:52 PM) We seriously have ZERO plan at the plate offensively right now, its amazing. Yes we do, hit a homer dude.

Byrd. 6 IP 5 H 0 R (I'll repeat that 0 R) 0 ER 2 BB 5 SO (I'll repeat that 5 SO for a non K pitcher) Wow..

There's no such thing as a 3 run homer with no runners on base.

Dye wasn't as slow no, but one year especially in your 30s can make a hellova difference. I saw this from Dye since ST.

QUOTE(shawnhillegas @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:47 PM) He would be the single worst offseason signing we could make. He has DH written all over him. It's crazy that he would be a hellova 1st baseman with practice with grounders and such. More athletic already than Konerko with more range. I would call him a poor man's Derrick Lee. Almost the same frame.

If this was Floyd, we wouldn't even be in this game.

Masset.... well done.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:46 PM) Was that catch in slow motion? Because it appeared that way. Getting old is horrible sometimes.

It's crazy that Masset has almost the same identical numbers from last season. JD!! Didn't look so slow on that play.

Danks. 5.1 IP 7 H 2 R 2 ER 1 BB 4 SO Res. for runners on first and second (3.97 era for now)

Ha Garko pwns our pitching.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 14, 2007 -> 01:38 PM) Makes you wonder whether any opposing team watches our team and thinks, "Wow, that (player A); I wish we had a player of his capabilities." Not even. Are any of our players blind not to see his approach? Garko is doing the simple basics of batting 101. But of course our organization doesn't go into those anymore. Kinda explains why A.J. was a line drive hitter in Minnesota and now he's a happy homer friendly.
