fathom

QUOTE(Capn12 @ May 21, 2007 -> 10:36 PM) Could be worse fath, at least your show is still on TV. The ONLY primetime network show I've watched in years(Jericho) got cancelled wrongly after one season. Yeah, I'm shocked that got cancelled. I watched it weekly, even though I first turned in hoping it would be a reality show about my favorite wrestler.

This should go without saying, but I'd appreciate it if no one made mention of things happening on season finales of TV shows tonight during the game. I'm sure many of us are taping certain shows, and let's hope some dumbass doesn't talk about what happened at the end of the show like what happened last year.

Adding Thome allows to move AJ down to the 6th or 7th spot in the order, and that helps the balance of this team. AJ has been hitting very well lately.

Fantastic start by Masset. He had great control between the 2nd and 5th inning. The funny thing is that he was throwing harder than any of our 5 main starters. And please, never mention Girardi as a possible manager. There's a reason that every Marlins pitcher seems to be on the DL.

Holy s***!

Wow, that ball sounded crushed off the bat.

Unreal

That's what you get when you dick around up 1-2 in the count.

Watch the opposite field swing by Theriot here.

One down!

Chased ball 4

Hopefully the rain didn't cause the wind to shift.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ May 20, 2007 -> 09:40 PM) Much like Ozzie, Judge Banks has lost control. Juggles had a bad day yesterday, so we have to get him performing again the next day in order to get his confidence up again.

Any estimated time for the game to continue?

Aardsma's problem right now is he's wild in the strike zone. He was great during April, as he could put his fastball on the corners whenever he wanted. He's not throwing as hard as he used to, and his ball ends up getting too much of the plate right now.

Did they have to show clips of great walkoff moments with the way this series has gone?

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 20, 2007 -> 09:10 PM) 100% agree, but you know it will happen. I promise it will. Just give these guys some time. Williams assembled a young bullpen. Often times, young=struggles. It's just going to happen. Give them a chance to work it out before you want to ship them off. If everyone got there way a few days ago, Masset would be in AAA right now. Here's the exact problem with this bullpen....we have too many young guys. You can't go through stretches where this many of them are struggling....it's a recipe for disaster.

All I have to say is please win this. If for some reason the Sox blow this, for my sake and everyone else, please shut down this board.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ May 20, 2007 -> 09:08 PM) I believe the new rule will force them to finish it. I think it will revert back to the end of the 8th inning.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ May 20, 2007 -> 09:06 PM) I wonder if anyone on this board still think Zambrano is second only to Johan Santana. We b**** about Dye and Iguchi not performing in their contract years, how about Zambrano? I didn't want to say this during the game, but he resembled a lot of the stuff we complain about in our pitchers. His velocity is way down this year.

QUOTE(jenksd @ May 20, 2007 -> 09:03 PM) You mean like earlier in the thread when "darin erstad's hit was only a ducksnort"? Stop cheering against this team. I'm still waiting for a comment about the game and not about something a poster said. QUOTE(29thandPoplar @ May 20, 2007 -> 09:03 PM) Agree. And you can bet Ken Williams has his eyes open, I think they need a veteran down in that pen. He has no one to blame but himself about this pen.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ May 20, 2007 -> 08:59 PM) I usually don't do it, but you guys need to relax. Aardsma and Mac were probably two of the best relievers in baseball in April, now there are serious posts of having them sent to Charlotte. Relax. The only pitcher that should be in Charlotte is Sisco. If anyone said anything else, then that's stupid. However, I can't believe how long Ozzie left Aardsma in there.

How are they letting them play through this?

Good grief....get him out of the game Ozzie. This is f***ing ridiculous. Nothing like giving a team life.

The guy has allowed like 9 of last 11 players to reach against him...get him out of the game.
