Buehrle>Wood

QUOTE(champ @ Jul 30, 2006 -> 07:43 PM) I'm sure he will, and it's not because he's stubborn. It's because Vazquez was cruising...you don't just go to the bullpen for the sake of going to the bullpen. That's a fishing waste. In most(no, almost all) cases I would agree. However, this is Javier Vazquez we are talking about.

Per ESPN. Anyone know the rest of the deal yet?

Abreu just removed from Phila's line-up.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 11:07 PM) Hey Klaus, The Knute picture is huge. I like Knute as much as anyone. Any way you can crank that down to normal size, i.e. within the guidelines? Thanks! 2nd'd.

QUOTE(PlunketChris @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 11:01 PM) Looking like he should be, he doesn't fit this role, he's a starter with a lot of value, and we have 5 consistantly available starters. But 3 aren't any good right now.

QUOTE(S720 @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 10:59 PM) So when he was pitching good in relief, I didn't hear you saying this. You were just raving how good BMAC is, but when he is terrible, oh because he needs to have a good feel for his pitches. Come on! BMAC is a good pitcher, but no way he is great. It's hard to be "great" when you are stuck in middle relief.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Jul 29, 2006 -> 10:56 PM) please, no posts about bmac being a better starter than he is a reliever But it's true, no? He certainly isn't in the one and done mold of a relief pitcher.

Sister Lakes, Michigan, of course.

Wallpapder'd.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 09:33 PM) I never chat, so I have no clue. I'd assume it's like a game thread with even less thought put into it. Not really. Chat is home to the best posters on this site. Flash, fathom, SSI, amongst others call it home.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 09:31 PM) What's chat like anyway? I never go in there. It can't possibly be as bad as the game threads, could it? Do yourself a favor and don't, then.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 09:00 PM) I disagree. Why make a huge post about you leaving? Because he's craving your attention? Anyway, I just don't see how one gets off making comments like "here is no more insight; no more logical discussions that set Soxtalk above the rest.", then go on to play the "Because it happened last year" argument.

IT HAPPENED LAST YEAR SO IT MUST HAPPEN THIS YEAR!!! BELIEVE!!!1!

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 08:10 PM) And the choke avatars come out again...in July. ::yawn:: I've had it since last October....

GIMME A HELL YEAH FOR: THE ANEMIC OFFENSE!!!!! AWESOME!!!!! BENCH PLAYERS PLAYING EVERDAY!!!! EXCITING!!!!!! GETTING OUR spiff STOMPED BY OUR DIVISION RIVAL!!!!!! CREDE TAKING PLAYS OFF ON DEFENSE!!! BRILLIANT!!! OZZIE'S MANAGING ON THE WHOLE!!!! 5 AND A HALF BACK BABY!!!!!!!! EDIT: And since when in the blue hell did Soxtalk get a swear filter? Lame.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 07:45 PM) This coming from the guy with the widgenator sig. By the way what did Hawk say? Said Crede was a very good fastball hitter. Crede then swung and missed at the next pitch, a 100 MPH fastball. Hawk did admit to the ownage, though.

That crowd reaction better fire the Sox up.

Hawk gets owned...

NASTY

I'd like to see the winning percentage we have with our starting line-up in there.

The Rally Crede doesn't need to throw balls at full speed. Instead, he'll just allow the runners to take their bases!

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 07:30 PM) You have to respond after that, Contreras. Don't let the takeout ruin your focus on the mound. Quick out right here. I'd hate to think about that play actually leading to the winning run. ...

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 07:29 PM) That was a bit cheap Not at all...

What's with the lazy throws, Joe? 2 in two innings. Christ.

Good look, but the orange may seem a shade too bright? Maybe its just me though.
