QUOTE(RX Bandits @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:28 AM) the freddy trade comes down to this: would you rather get rid of a guy a year early than a year late? I think the correct answer is a year too early. I wonder what some idiots on this board would have said if we kept freddy and then have him end up being injured at the beginning of the season. the same people who ripped KW for trading him most likely would have ripped him for not trading him. just a thought. He missed one start! Flat out, KW lied when he said he wouldn't trade Garcia unless it improved this team for 2007. He failed!

This Cubs game is making me even sicker. I hate this f***ing baseball season.

QUOTE(chisoxt @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:28 AM) It concerns me that are bullpen with the 'fire breathing hurlers' is constantly getting beat on high fast balls Nick Masset's fastball is nowhere near as good as advertised. The rest of our relievers all have about a 2 mph decrease in their velocity. If it was Matt Stairs, he would have never pitched to him. Ozzie's act is old and tired.

QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:23 AM) Violated part deux? We let their only two good hitters, Hunter and Morneau, beat us. How lovely!

Wow, I can't believe we pitched to him. Nothing like lettting him beat you. f*** YOU OZZIE!

Nice sequence by Masset. Gotta hope Morneau hits it hard at someone.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:17 AM) Why do you bring a pitcher in to start off with a IBB? Duh....Ozzie has Sisco on his fantasy team, and he doesn't want his WHIP to go up higher.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:17 AM) Plus, listening to Hawk, the umpires are against the Sox as well. There was like 4 close pitches all night that didn't go our way. Big deal.

I still love how people said Brian Anderson was the same quality as T. Hunter last year.

QUOTE(quickman @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:14 AM) they are out of sync, with their lineup, coaching, moving runners over, plate presence, everything, completely out of sync. They had a great opportunity to win this game and get off to an excellent start. they are miserable, and for gods sake lets hope everybody doesn't think sweeney is the next sox all star. Sweeney looks good when he swings, it's just the ball doesn't come off of his bat very solidly. Sometimes it seems like other major leaguers are using an aluminum bat, and he's using a wood bat. He really has to develop more strength.

Under no circumstance do you pitch to Hunter here.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:12 AM) This game has sucked. If we lose, imagine it. It's actually not the offense's fault, but the bullpen's. Ha. And WTF is wrong with David Ardsma? The offense didn't exactly go nuts tonight. If not for a terrible throw by Bonser, we might have only one or two runs.

I can't stand watching Sisco pitch.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:09 AM) So does it bother anyone else that AJ won't frame any pitch that's close to being a strike? That just annoys the hell out of me. Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:11 AM) Still trying to figure out how you let that ball down the line when you are guarding the line... Here's a secret: there's a reason why Crede has never won a Gold Glove.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:11 AM) For a team that must be exhausted from their postseason last year, the Tigers are playing very well. Their offense is going to be dynamic. Their 2-3-4-5 is so tough, and Monroe/Thames always get big hits.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:10 AM) f*** this. He struck out 2 pitches ago. That b****ing in the top of the inning really paid off.

QUOTE(quickman @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:10 AM) should be over soon. Too bad, three run lead blown. would have been a nice win. I just don't see how this team can consistently win right now.

You can't let anything get past you there. I hate this f***ing team.

Oh good, Sisco's in to go to 3 balls on every hitter.

Wow, quite funny. It's hard for me to get too down on him after two magical seasons.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:05 AM) That was some bizarre ass timing. And it's surely working in this AB with JD. He's such an idiot.

That 0-1 pitch was in his wheelhouse. Now time for him to chase a slider.

Why is Ozzie b****ing about a zone after Mackowiak got the benefit of some calls?

QUOTE(chisoxt @ May 9, 2007 -> 03:02 AM) Every time the Sox and the Twins play, the disparity between the two team's pens is apparent. as is the managing
