Kalapse

horray only 3 games back

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Apr 9, 2006 -> 01:34 AM) Flash, you're a really good poster, and I respect most of your opinions -- but do you absolutely have to trash our minor league organization every 5 seconds? Sure, it would be nice to have one or more of those flamethrowing guys everybody drools over. But, considering we draft 15th or lower EVERY year, what do you expect? You're not gonna find guys like Liriano and Verlander where we usually pick. It's just not gonna happen. - All pitchers out of the top 50 or so prospects in baseball: - Francisco Liriano - Twins - FA - Justin Verlander - Tigers - 2nd overall - Matt Cain - Giants - 25th overall - Chad Billingsley - Dodgers - 24th overall - Jon Lester - Red Sox - 57th overall - Jon Papelbon - Red Sox - 114th overall - Joel Zumaya - Tigers - 320th overall - Philip Hughes - Yankees - 23th overall - John Danks - Rangers - 9th overall - Homer Bailey - Blue Jays - 7th overall - Anthony Reyes - Cardinals - 455th overall - Scott Elbert - Dodgers - 17th overall - Adam Miller - Indians - 31st overall - Jeremy Sowers - Indians - 6th overall - Adam Loewen - Orioles - 4th overall - Mark Rogers - Brewers - 5th overall - Anibal Sanchez - Marlins - FA - Craig Hansen - Red Sox - 26th overall - Thomas Diamond - Rangers - 10th overall - Mike Pelfrey - Dodgers - 9th overall - Fausto Carmona - Indians - FA |RED = Drafted 16th overall or later| 13/21 were drafted after the 15th pick in the draft or were FAs. Is it possible that maybe the problem isn't our draft position but instead our college/latin country scouting and minor league pitcher developement?

QUOTE(Benchwarmerjim @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 09:01 PM) too bad Travis Hafner didnt get traded from Cleveland like Coco Crisp I dont know the number against the Twins lifetime, but I bet they are really good Vs Twins: 169 AB, 11 HR, 29 RBI, .261/.333/.493/.830 Vs Sox: 189 AB, 9 HR, 34 RBI, .270/.361/.497/.858 Vs Tigers: 131 AB, 9 HR, 19 RBI, .298/.419/.573/.991 Vs Royals: 133 AB, 8 HR, 23 RBI, .308/.415/.609/.1024 The guy just wrecks AL Central pitching, he is a menace and must be stopped.

Gagne to miss 6-8 weeks after surgery. Lowry to the DL after straining muscle in his last start.

QUOTE(ScottyDo @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 02:23 PM) chillax is pretty much the best word in human history If you're a 16 year old girl.

QUOTE(ScottyDo @ Apr 7, 2006 -> 02:16 PM) is he C eligible? He didn't play any games at catcher last year so he is not eligible this year, otherwise he'd be a top 3 catcher in fantasy leagues.

Albert Pujols is the most imposing hitter in Baseball, it is incredibly enjoyable to watch him hit.

QUOTE(Soxy @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 02:06 PM) Messing up usage of any of the following words is a bannable offense here in SLaM. its/it's their/there/they're our/are to/too (list is not exhaustive) Then/Than is more annoying IMO.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 06:35 PM) didn't I just see you release widger? That was a different league, took him in the last round in that one.

QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 10:03 AM) if you draft Ross Gload or any other back up player in your fantasy draft than you desrve to have negative numbers. I drafted Chris Widger in the 2nd round of one of my drafts, I know he's a backup but I'm very pleased with the selection thus far.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Apr 6, 2006 -> 04:14 PM) Watch in the MLB section. I don't really follow the team page anymore. I don't think they stay up as long. Sportsline is incredibly annoying, they're sticking about 30 Sox pics in the MLB section and then about 10 in the Sox section. Though I must commend them for having 64 pics for Opening day.

QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 11:30 PM) Nope, I'm just a moron and thought yesterday was the 5th (as I wrote on one of my tests today in school :banghead). Ignore me And I thought you were playing mind games, turns out you just can't keep track of what day it is.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 11:04 PM) Thx man! Not a problem at all. QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 11:05 PM) I like your sig much better now. As do I, I'm not done yet though I want to make it look more like a real meter. QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 11:09 PM) Even though it still has the wrong date? Are you just trying to f*** with my mind at this point?

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 10:54 PM) I believe it was Boone Logan. Oh it was Boone, care of Mark Buehrle.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 10:00 PM) Is Thome photoshopped from a Phillies jersey to a Sox jersey in your sig? Here's a decent photo of Thome hitting today's homer if you need it... http://espn-i.starwave.com/media/apphoto/CXS10804041957.jpg Yeah, the pic I have in my sig was of him in a Phillies uni. I used that pic because I had the sig up before the first game and there were no good pics of him from spring training. I guess I could change the pic but for some reason I just really like the way this one looks, I'm sure I'll end up changing it eventually though. The original

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 09:49 PM) Stupid question, but was it an internal feed from the studio, or was it actually playing live from the park?? It was a studio feed, they showed both the opening montage and the banner raising video both in HD.

QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 09:21 PM) Prove me wrong Count.. lets win this series. And Kalapse, your sig has the wrong date How do you figure?

Comcast actually aired that video in full at the beginning of their broadcast today.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:51 PM) You are very stubborn ( I remember you said you are like that because of the serbian in you) and I thought the Irish were stubborn (which I am) I love the crazy ability you have to completely make things up. and you wonder why noone takes you seriously . . .

I watched the first 30 minutes, had to turn it off after that. I just couldn't take another second of him. He is absolutely intolerable.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:38 PM) Relax. You'll never get through to him, he's incredibly thick skulled.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:05 PM) ^^^^ On the other hand...WILLIE looked like a pimp. I must say, I did like Willie's jacket.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 07:03 PM) anyone else think Timo Perez looked like a pimp? I think he looked like a moron. What the hell did he have on his head?

QUOTE(iWiN4PreP @ Apr 4, 2006 -> 05:44 PM) I don't understand what the fun is for you Gotribe. But good luck to you, never had a problem with having other fans on board, just don't understand the point in posting in soxtalk lol. But anyway, lets take the series. Main goal = winning the series. 2/3 Then why would you register on his board? Sounds kind of hyporcritical to me.
