QUOTE (Cali @ Apr 14, 2008 -> 04:48 PM) How can Gameday Game channel and MLBTV not be working at the same time?! They're all run by different websites. It makes no f***ing sense.... Burbank isn't far from me. Feel free to watch it on DirecTV.

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 14, 2008 -> 04:15 PM) When's Ozzie going to give Thome a break against LHP? What's the sense of having an on base machine like Swisher being followed by the weak hitting Thome against lefties ? The opening day against Sabathia seems to have cemented into Ozzie's head that Thome should automatically bat 3rd against anyone. Thank goodness Quentin and Crede are picking up the slack.

Strong play by Sox may keep Owens in AAA
QUOTE (CryptviLL @ Apr 14, 2008 -> 08:52 AM) the only problem right now I have with the team is uribe. I'd rather see ramirez play over him, or just some-one else... I cringe everytime he is at bat. Do you cringe every time he turns a double play? So far we don't need his bat but we always need his glove .

Strong play by Sox may keep Owens in AAA
QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Apr 14, 2008 -> 08:56 AM) If there is anything that the team is lacking right now it's speed. I wouldn't mind seeing Owens coming off the bench late in the game as a PR. Also, Ramirez serves no purpose on the bench. He should go down to Charlotte for some seasoning. If all you're going to do is use Frowens as a PR then why bring him up ? Ramirez is just as fast or nearly as fast and hasn't had lingering Pods-like injuries this spring.

Buehrle being skipped in rotation
Buehrle went 0-1 with a 3.86 ERA in two starts against Oakland last season, while Vazquez has a career 6.60 ERA against the A's. And the A's are hitting .204 against left-handers this season, which the Sox hope to take advantage of with Buehrle and Danks. The rotation will remain in that order until an April 21 day off, after which Buehrle and Vazquez likely will switch back. Thats for those of you who appear not to have read the article posted and still seem shocked.

4/13 Gamethread: Sox (6-4) vs. Detroit (2-9); 1:05, WGN
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 13, 2008 -> 06:57 AM) I hope Quentin gets real hot the next week or so. The Sox have only attempted 1 stolen base in 10 games. I have a feeling Ozzie is dying for a reason to insert Owens after a few rehab games. I say make him a pinch runner. Getting guys on base, then hitting homers works pretty well. Love your sig. Here's something that should give you a giggle.

Danks (0-0) vs. Baker (1-0): MAKE IT SIX!
QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 9, 2008 -> 08:10 PM) Yahoo's even worse, they have Brian Bass pitching for the Sox right now against Gomez. Game day also had Quentin leading off the 9th with a double.

Danks (0-0) vs. Baker (1-0): MAKE IT SIX!
QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 9, 2008 -> 07:04 PM) Ugh Gameday is several minutes behind, as if I wasn't already questioning why I was still watching this game. Also still had Thorton pitching when Mac was in.

The OFFICIAL "I was wrong about Joe Crede" thread
QUOTE (hi8is @ Apr 8, 2008 -> 12:03 AM) I think this video sums up my sentiment in a positive and appropriate fashion: Come on guys... join in the fun - sing along! Good to see you posting. You make way too much sense. Shame on you .

Twin's pitcher settled in. 1st pitch strikes, getting his curve over jamming hitters with fastball inside.

Vazquez (0-1) vs. Blackburn (0-1): HOME OPENER!
Balls must be slippery today. Javy couldn't pick up the bunt, AJ couldnt find the handle on the SB and Juan double clutched on the GO.

The Best So Far
Although their are many factors to produce win's in a team sport like baseball for me it's Dank. Basically he was the stopper after the 0-2 start. Seeing Quentin's bat and arm also impressed. Haven't see anything yet about Crede's play. It was such a heated debate that it seems his detractors are not yet willing to say he's done better than expected. I was pretty split on the subject wanting him to open the season rehabbing in the minors.

I like that MLB Game Day has Video highlights during the game so I got to see Dye's HR.

Gavin "Pretty Boy" Floyd vs. D-Train, Going for three!
Peavy complete game W vs. Dodgers 4-1 here on the left coast on Fox. Only run Dodgers got was a Furcal triple and a great diving catch by san diego catcher sliding into the dugout on pop up but umps awarded Furcal home because catcher slid off the field of play thus getting an error on a great sliding catch. Damn bonus coverage isnt Sox game . Went to Mets/Braves.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 02:59 PM) I'd be so proud of Ozzie if he pulled Dye after this AB and put Anderson in RF. Didn't happen but you got Uribe for Ozuna.
