Caulfield...you have dropped a couple of notches... Sean Lowe...? No love for my boy Sean Lowe...??? 2001: 11 Starts 9-4 3.61 ERA? I'm very disappointed in you.....

Happity Burfday!! Happity Burfday!! Fellow Cancerians! :drink

Who do you think you are? Sting? Bono? Cher? Madonna?

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but on ESPN Insider, they said that anyone that wants Halladay has to take Wells. Now, I don't want Wells, but that just dropped the price of getting Doc. If the B-Jays want my team to take on that albatross of a contract, I'm not giving you any of my top 5 in the system. That's just ridiculous.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 03:42 PM) Doesn't sizemore have an arm injury that he is nursing? I don't know how Sizemore is going to get him from the bench. He's DHing today. It's Francisco out there in CF.

QUOTE (tommy @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 03:41 PM) Sizemore probably gets him at third. Hip might be barking.

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 03:40 PM) The whole Indians pitching staff minus Cliff Lee is just ugh. People had them going to the worlde series this year. Those people should have their credentials revoked.

Oooo...juuuuuust missed it.

Felix Diaz.

Wow...the Indians bullpen. Just wow.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 03:36 PM) Wel, Dotel rebounds, but why oh why can't they get the first batter out? Move on...we've got our first batter on!

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 03:32 PM) Dotel - if he's bad with hitter #1, he's not recovering, that's his MO. Get him out of there. How does that crow taste???

Someone smack Dotel.

If this run scores...someone needs to smack Dotel.

QUOTE (Greg Hibbard @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 02:34 PM) sox are gonna win this 46-10. Is Ditka playing?

Glass half-full: The Sox are hitting the ball hard. Glass half-empty: They are either outs or foul.

For all you Hawk Haters..."This game is still winnable, my man. Still winnable."

Everyone check Jayson Stark's Useless Information column next week...this game's got to be in it.

Best convo: Hawk: I am sure we are going to score more than 6 runs today. Stone: Let's hope the Indians don't.

Soooo...now that we've established...well, nothing, I have a question for everyone (and mods, feel free to snap off into another thread). When Hawk decides to hang it up...who replaces him? HOpefully not Farmer. Anyone have any ideas?

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 01:43 PM) Why Is Aaron Poreda on this team? Would he not be better served in the AAA rotation? What? you think DJC will be in for the rest of this game? Poreda will pitch some time in this game.

OK...so who was that home run on? He throws all FB to Francisco...walks him. Then Shoppach, who sees this, sits on a FB...and gets? A fastball. And hammers it? Is that on Clayton or AJ?

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 11:14 AM) I've dislocated both kneecaps 3 or 4 times each. Pretty much puts you out for a month at the least. If you get big time swelling and fluid in the knee, it takes way longer and may require being drained. Sometimes people don't realize they dislocated their kneecap because when they look down, it's in the right place. It's happened to me however that it pops out and snaps right back into place. Every time I dislocated it, I just straighten my leg and it snaps back in. Painful as s***. Dude...you're like Martin Riggs from Lethal Weapon!!!

What I found interesting was the weather. For three months, we've heard about the bats being quiet because of the cold weather. Well, it wasn't warm last night and the Sox scored 5. Good news: The Sox are finding ways to score without HRs using those things called hit-and-run's, steals and going the opposite way. Bad news: No more excuses for slow starts, fellas.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 8, 2009 -> 03:01 PM) I think, truth be told despite the fact that we fight all the time in this forum, you and me are a lot closer philosophically (as far as actual actions) than it looks like. I still wouldn't call myself a conservative though and I'm not liberal enough to be a real liberal. I'm all over the map and I think there's a lot more people like me too. I don't have a baseline that pre-determines my logic on a particular issue like a true liberal or a true conservative would, but I still fall on the side with the libs at something like a 60/40 rate. I have a couple of friends that are fiscally conservative but socially liberal. They both tend to vote GOP, but aren't always thrilled about it. The problem is the label. If there could be a candidate that could persuade the majority to vote on issues and not on labels, we might have a different system. Unfortunately, Id on't thinkt hat's going to happen in any of our lifetimes.
