QUOTE (fathom @ May 24, 2011 -> 11:44 PM) BTW, Jeff Gray had a scoreless inning for Seattle tonight. This organization really disgraced themselves with that personnel move. Pena is batting practice for righties. Super huh...Kenny really hasn't been the master of personnel moves the last few years.

I hate you Tony Pena...

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 23, 2011 -> 09:29 PM) No one should allow a baseball team to affect their life like that. I am as a big a fan as anyone, but once you start allowing a bunch of men that don't know you to dictate your happiness, there is a problem. what about a basketball team?!?

Good lord...the John Danks ZERO run support campaign continues. He's probably countin' the days til he's gone...

I quit watching this probably in the middle of the 3rd...writing was on the wall. No finishers.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 21, 2011 -> 02:12 PM) Brent Lillibridge's 4th HR on the season. hahaa...as many as Dunn.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 20, 2011 -> 08:24 PM) Who on earth expected natty to completely melt down this year? you mean after he signed his big contract (for him anyway)... and said he was gonna close...

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 20, 2011 -> 08:23 PM) And yet many people were fine with him being our closer cause his stuff is so nasty and it allegedly didn't matter that he's a lefty. I wasn't one of them. hated the idea from the start regardless of what "stats" kalapse threw out there....

good lord...

WTF happened to Thornton...geez-us he's bad.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 19, 2011 -> 06:52 PM) Cleveland announcers suggested Alexei wasn't really hit in the first, just was acting Yeah...kinda stretching it there. But I'll tell ya what...I honestly think I'd rather listen to Cleveland's announcers than most out there...they're actually not too bad to listen too IMO.

That was pretty damn impressive Jake!

Did the guy sitting right behind the dugout just yell at Dunn telling him "you suck"?...

QUOTE (fathom @ May 17, 2011 -> 07:38 PM) At what point would you qualify him as a bust? I know you're much more lenient than a lot of us. I would. After last season I really didn't have much confidence in him this year. I said a few times on here I thought he was as good as he's ever gonna get.

Sergio...you are THE s***!!!

regardless...there has to be a deal made. Danks and Flowers to Yanks to Gardner and Montero is my wish list.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 12, 2011 -> 11:12 AM) Right. Because Ozzie stays up at night wondering if Juan Pierre likes him... Hahaaa...way to skip right over the bolded parts of the statement.

Speaking of accountability...the piece on espn's site about the Pirates climb back to respectability and Clint Hurdle's presense now...something in there really caught my eye. The Anti-Ozzie...

If you need to adjust the lineup right now with DV...move Q back to left (where he should be anyway) and have Lilli start in RF (I heard he's made a couple of OK plays out there). Personally he's not a starter...but DV should get a shot here soon. Pierre Kevin Buckman has to go though. There's different lineups Ozzie could go with. But sadly...he won't bench a guy who's hitting around .250. Hell...he won't bench guys hitting around .200 either (Beckham). Bottom line is this team took off with Omar in the lineup consistantly last year. My patience has worn out with Pierre and Beckham.

Team looks a little refocused and rejuvinated. And since the Roy Hobbs avatar...3 wins in 3 games...just sayin.

Wow...just turned it on this top of the inning. Glad I didn't suffer through the first 9...turned it on just in time. And bonus...got to see Mrs. Doubtfire sitting behind home plate!!!

Losing is a disease...like Bubonic Plague.

I'm beyond even remotely giving a s*** right now. Not gonna say I'm done for the year...they're bound to go on a win streak sometime. But I plan on spending many a day/night on my pontoon catching crappie and drinkin' beer.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ May 3, 2011 -> 10:23 PM) I moved out to AZ in the Summer and I don;'t have the interest in sports like I use to. I'm a Colts fan and that team was so bad I didn't even watch them on TV. So my hopes lied in the Sox and Blackhawks. The Blackhawks put on a tease. So I don't get to watch them on Nat'l TV. Now the Sox are a disappointment. There's no way in hell I could sit through a Phoenix Cardinal game. I've turned on a Diamondback's game only to watch an inning or two. It really wouldn't bother me if the NFL is put on hold next season. So I take it you're not going to the Sox series out here in June? I'm torn whether to take my Dad who'll be out then or not...probably will. By I honestly would rather take the weekend and go fishing than watch the crap they're peddling. kite...I get invested in ASU stuff. Love to follow their baseball and softball teams. Looking forward to ASU football this year too.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 3, 2011 -> 10:08 PM) I've never understood the kicking KW upstairs part. Either the Sox are happy with him as the GM, or he needs to go. Having him around meddling with his successor makes zero sense. Exactly...purge the lot of them.
