is it cool to start saying pods blows again? no?
He picked a bad series to struggle, but everytime you think he's hitting the wall, he'll have a 3-3 with 2 walks game.

panic sox fans. panic
I want him to trade guys like Contreras and Dotel, as I'm not so sure we wouldn't be just as good of a team without them.
Sweet, Casilla almost hits an opposite field homer. This team is just so f***ing flat right now, and Twins on the verge of getting a comfortable lead. It's too bad KW didn't trade Contreras after his great stretch.

i hope its bcuz the injury and not that he just isnt that good....
He was pulling everything before the injury, and he's pulling everything since he's returned.
QUOTE (Cali @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:39 AM)
CQ looks completely and utterly lost up there... just DL him for his foot again, even if its not bugging him and let him get a fresh 100% start in 2010
Screw that, make him play it out and show he can actually hit again. It's not like he was lighting it up this season prior to getting injured.
QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:35 AM)
i think the only small problem there might be, that ive seen people post , is that jd would still want to play the field and not dh right?
I agree, I don't think he'd be willing to be our DH.
QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Jul 30, 2009 -> 12:29 AM)
thats why i think he should be our dh next year. forget thome. too many nagging injuries and dye is a better hitter
That would be ideal

How do you know?
The hatred toward Wise never ceases to amaze me. Somebody pointed out a few days ago he's the worst player on our roster. Every team's last player or two suck.
So why the venom?
I wish people would just bag on Oz and KW every day instead of Wise. Guy makes maybe the greatest catch in Sox history and you call him a piece of s***.
Makes no sense to me.
Just the fact he made that catch means he is NOT a piece of s***. He's not good but he's not a piece of s***.
Juan Uribe's catch going into the stands in Game 4 of the World Series is the greatest catch in Sox history, and it really shouldn't even be a question.

They are always playing for 3 years away. That is the problem.
Agreed, but it looks like they're actually willing to spend some money to try and get their team into good position in 3 years. By that time, maybe the Cubs and Cardinals won't be so much more talented than the rest of the division.

It must really suck to be a Pirates fan.
Why, they had a pretty good day with these trades? They know that they're playing for 2011, and the money they saved in this trade will only help them in their effort to get Sano.
QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 29, 2009 -> 11:40 PM)
No thanks. I'd rather be going for a division title than selling off our players for prospects that we don't know will pan out.
I've said in many other threads, it's not about the players panning out for us, it's for KW to get more ammunition to go after guys this offseason (like Carl Crawford).
Keith Law had Alderson ranked the #26 prospect in all of baseball. This is one of the most shocking hauls I can remember. The Giants have given up two of their top pitching prospects, and their offense is still awful!
