QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 24, 2006 -> 03:40 PM) Well he has a 12 million dollar option for next year which the twins will not be picking up... unless of course they have a deal worked out ahead of time with a big time spending team. I personally see him going to free agency. And then getting a nice sized deal from the Yankees to play CF for them while Damon shifts to left.

Appearantly the Marlins offered up a trade of Dontrelle Willis straight up for David Wright this spring. The trade was immediately nixed by Minaya and rightfully so. I gotta say I wouldn't even think about this trade in my mind Wright >>> Willis, of course I don't think Willis is as good as most people do but come on David Wright is/going to be the best 3B in the NL. 5 tools and all of them above average, you don't let that go.

I still say the AL Central is far too strong for the Sox to win 101+ games no matter how hot we are right now. This offense is going to have it's ups and downs, that's just what you get with big time power hitters and average to slightly above average hitters at the bottom of the lineup. Also, AJ will not be hitting 10 HRs this year, so along with Pods we'll have two guys in the lineup with less than 10 and Pods might not hit any. The starting pitching just might be strong enough to carry a struggling offense for an extended period of time but that might be asking too much. Once the Sox start playing some closer games and we go into the late innings up by 1 or 2 runs, that weak bullpen is going to show its ugly face and cripple their 1 run game record. The Sox are good enough to win the Central and are probably the best team in baseball this year but I wouldn't be getting my hopes up for anything more than 97 wins.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 07:19 PM) I LOVED the Torii interview, and it actually made me respect him alot more. ^^^ Great interview with Torii, he sounds like just such a great guy and the stuff with Thome was just classic.

What if he would have missed first. he'd kill himself.

That'll do Brian, that'll do.

URIBE YESSSSSSSSS

QUOTE(Whitewashed in '05 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 02:33 PM) Oh I know, but you guys are begging for them to do it. It just doens't make any sense whey they're not. I'd rather they not steal 2 bases every time they get a single or a walk.

QUOTE(Whitewashed in '05 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 02:31 PM) The moment the league starts running circles around our catchers and pitchers you guys are gonna yell for their heads. It's not so much AJ's fault as it is Jose, Freddy and Javier's fault. All I ask is that they attmept to hold a runner on.

How is it that more teams don't steal off the Sox? It makes no sense.

The non-chalant bastard makes the catch in CF.

It appears this is the game that Thome's run scoring streak ends. Just a hunch.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 02:20 PM) He makes me sick to my stomach. ^^^

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 02:20 PM) Really? I would take him on this team in a heartbeat. I couldn't stand looking at his assholeish grin that he's constantly sporting.

Lew Ford is one of a few half way decent players in baseball that I would never want to see in a Sox uni.

DRRRRRRRR

That was pretty.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 02:08 PM) What's the pitch count? Silva - 59 Contreras - 47

Hey, we got 2.
