I don't take "predictions" as seriously as "projections". I like to hear who Rosenthal, Gammons, etc. predict to win but I don't hold it against them if they are wrong. They are based on feelings/mindsets. It's more for fun. The projection systems are a little different. Those are simulated applications that come up with numbers. They are based on algorithms. If they are off then their reputation is on the line.

Come on peeps. No one is interested?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 24, 2010 -> 01:14 PM) Then Jake Peavy will take the mound for game 2. I bet the attendance for game 2 (as long as the weather is nice) is 30k> with Peavy starting.

You should consider selling merchandise and using the proceeds for the site. I'd love a soxtalk beer mug. Or how about tshirts with our screennames on the back?

I'd bat Beckham 3rd. I think he's the best pure hitter on this team.

Another thing you have to look at with Teahen is that alot of players have at least one bad month. Their play is very streaky. So even if Teahen has a bad April, who's to say he can't rebound the rest of the year. I'd rather have him batting .200 in April than in September. Ultimately I think he'll come around.

He can suck all spring training as long as he hits solid the past few games. That should help his confidence and hopefully build some momentum for the season.

Putz in. Surrenders homerun to 1 armed Nady.

6 ABs with the bases loaded. 1 ball hit out of the infield. Real nice.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Mar 16, 2010 -> 05:33 PM) With a man a second he pitched around Mitch Maier to get to...............Josh Fields worked like a charm. The hanger was not missed by Guillen. I thought the walk came first, then the double. I guess i have it mixed up. Makes sense now.

Pena looked good last night. He looked overpowering against righties with the exception of the hanging slider he served up to Guillen. He looked bad against the only lefty he faced though. 4 pitches, 4 balls.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 12, 2010 -> 10:40 PM) Has Jenks ever come to camp ready to go? My thoughts exactly. He seems to get hit hard in spring too. I'm not worried.

Makes me want to keep Pierzynski and trade Flowers or move him to 1B.

Any radar gun readings for Santos or any other pitchers today? I'll be curious tomorrow how hard Linebrink and Putz are throwing.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Mar 5, 2010 -> 03:58 AM) St. Joe in Indiana. And I am not saying I can make it on $25, because I can't (on gas alone), but that's all I have right now, and I won't have any more money coming in until then when I can start working again. Why don't you just get a credit card?

If Santos doesn't make the ML roster doesn't he have to go through waivers?
