QUOTE(MSHAWKS @ Jul 13, 2006 -> 10:15 AM) I'm not sure what this means. She's talking about Todd Ritchie, which was Shuler's doing, not Williams.

QUOTE(rowand @ Jul 13, 2006 -> 10:10 AM) ARow does not blow. He is a great fielder, above average hitter, and great guy. I wouldn't go after him this year, but let Pods go next season and plug him into left. He can bat leadoff, but then again we would be far too right handed of a lineup with AJ and THome as our only starting Lefties. As of today Rowand has a career .334 OBP, this year it's .317 and in '05 it was .329. Career .783 OPS, this year he's at .751 and last year .736. Aaron Rowand is NOT a leadoff hitter.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 13, 2006 -> 01:25 AM) How about that Arod has a walkoff homer against Atlanta when his team was down by a run? Appearantly if you have a $252M contract, walkoff homeruns and 7 RBI games including a grandslam against your crosstown rival don't count as clutch. I'm not one to harp on the clusterf*** of idiocy that is ESPN but the A-Rod hatred comming out of NY/Bristol is just sickening. 1.000+ OPSs w/ both RISP and RISP w/ 2 out seems relatively clutch to me.

The first person to tell me what is wrong with this poll gets major cool points from me. This is the sort of s*** that pisses me off.

QUOTE(Reddy @ Jul 12, 2006 -> 04:54 PM) is Ozzie Jr wearing a Pierzynski jersey?? Yep, he wore it the whole game. AJ is in fact, his favorite player.

For anyone who's on the fence on whether or not to buy this, I highly recommend it. I've bought it the past couple years including this year and have loved every minute of it.

Isn't Alan Grant the same guy who called Ricky Williams a "breathe of fresh air" and wrote about 20 articles calling Notre Dame racist for firing Ty Willingham?

Nomo was released about a month ago.

So AJ Pierzynski is Tony Montana?

Mitch Talbot still has some great upside as a starter. He has a sick change and is still only 22.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Jul 12, 2006 -> 11:21 AM) Didnt Myers punch his wife in the face? Yeah Philly you can keep him. I thought the one player The Phillies were happy with was Rowand. I dont see them trading him. Why yes, yes he did. Not exactly the type of character guy you're looking to add to your championship team.

I told you Liriano wouldn't pitch.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 10:54 PM) Um, what the hell is a fungo bat? GASP!! HAVE YOU NEVER PLAYED BASEBALL?!?! It's a long, skinny, incredibly light bat used for pre-game drills and such. The bat is specifically designed for infield and outfield practice, this way the coach can use an very light bat for better accuracy when hitting the ball and can swing it hundreds of times without tiring. Of course it's only designed for tossing the ball up and hitting it.

I enjoy watching Albert Pujols' HRs much more than anyone else in baseball.

QUOTE(WISOX @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 04:57 PM) This is obviously a cub~~ http://www.theonion.com/content/node/50038 Hey, that's Jeff Kent playing against the Giants on Sunday April 16th, 2006. He was hit in the head with a pitch and removed from the game. I remember Joe Morgan gushing non-stop on the greatness of Barry Bonds througout that game.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 01:20 PM) The Sox need outfielders to drop easy pop-ups, throw like girls, take terrible routes to balls, get caught stealing more than anyone else in baseball, have a low average, and not be able to bunt? In that case, I think I'm exactly what this team needs! Don't forget his awesome ability to be picked off first base at the drop of a hat.

QUOTE(watchtower41 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 12:31 PM) Of course Rob has played Left, we can all agree.... Has he started?? Even when Pablo has been hurt and Pods was slumping??? If you start Mackowiak in LF then where does your leadoff man come from? Ozzie always has to have his speed guy in the lineup even if he's struggling that's why you see either of Ozuna or Podsednik startinging in LF everyday. Mack has frequently come in as a defensive replacement for Podsednik in the late innings because his arm is so much stronger and because he knows how to catch a flyball that's hit to him. I'm not just going to blindly love some player because he's on the Sox, that would be foolish. I cheer for laundry in general.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 01:03 AM) Well if it isn't Nostradamus himself... My reputation precedes me.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 12:59 AM) And I did. And it doesn't surprise me one bit.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 12:41 AM) That was quite stupid. You would say that.

The Homerun Cup

Is it possible for a guy with a 2.95 ERA, 138 K/24 BB and a 1.00 WHIP to be underrated? I say . . . yes.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 11:33 PM) Well Papelbon has done a better job overall, as you said. I guess I'm missing what we're arguing about. Um, I never said that.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 11:28 PM) But where do the Yankees play Spring Ball? Wouldn't that impact if Griffey accepts the trade? They play in Florida, which is also where the Reds play and where Griff wants to spend his March's.
