Punch and Judy Garland

saying the bashers will come out next time he makes an out could be true. But how is that different than Crede's Crew bragging about him after a hit? Come on.

oh dear god

This has that bad feel to it that those rainy nights at the Jake have when we are down 8-0 and Hawk and DJ are in crisis mode. Funny thing is that its still 3-1, but you don't win games agains their bullpen

I've NEVER seen a pitcher like Jose Contreras. Maybt eh most frustrating pitcher of my lifetime. Reall a Jekyl and Hide guy if there ever was one. He seems to lack ANY mental toughness

Relax Kogs, our problems are our doing

I can't believe how many times we've gone 0-2 and then not put them away. It's unreal. Watching the Tiwnscast-they didn't show a balk. Not sure what happened

I picked the Hurt. I wouldn't mind Timo perez surprisingly after his clutch hits off K-Rod and Benitez but Uribe also has been a guy who has had some big hits. Uribe and Paulie are good sac fly guys for certain. I have the most Frank in Frank at getting that count in his favor to get a fastball he can do something with.

ROawnd vs. Frank THomas. Not even close. It's numebr #35-no offense to aaron

I've never seen anything like I saw in 03. This city was consumed by the Cubs, even in the NLDS. Life didn't stop during the 2000 playoffs like it did for the Cubs. It's just not gonna happen, but who cares anymore?

Did Frank hit 220 last year? Try not to be such an idiot if you can help it

the pereption of Frank is much darker than the reality. So what if he is a bit if a diva? Pedro Martinez is and that doesn't make you a bad guy. I think with Frank you just give him some props to soothe his ego and he's fine. DOes Ozzie want to talk about winning? 8-4 ain't winning s***. Being the best team in baseball in 1994 and 2000 menas a lot more to me than Ozzieball and Frank is the numero uno reason we were the best team

30K would be impressive considering all the colleges are still in session. That's the only reason I think they come up a little short

You've got mail Joeynach, thanks [email protected]

I am simply amazed that some people think Frank is a part-time player. He is our best hitter and if you don't know that you haven't been watching since last June. I appreciate that soxtalk has been very supportive of Frank lately but they were very behind Lee too and then the spin came. I fear that if Ozzie/KW drive Frank out, opinion around here will do its usual 180. Those guys better be careful though because if they've met JR they should know not to f*** with Frank or Harold Baines.

I wish Ozzie would shut the f*** up. I don't need to see Frank wave the pom-poms-just hit. What did Frank not do that Ozzie wante dhim to do? Bunt? Steal bases?

I would hope qwerty that even a lucky condom is only used once.

I would have put Joe Buck much higher. He is a lot better than Jon Miller and many ahead of him. Also, I was diappointed Thom Brennaman failed to make the list. He's very good.

I almost feel bad for him he's melted down so badly

Half-price night right? Agianst Minnesota and with the good start I'd imagine there will be 27,000 or so there.

Let's see a third straight pretty good start for the Count.

My point about AJ is to reference his numbers from last year vs. his years in Minnesota and there is some concern as to what you are going to get this year. He doesn't K though, which is nice. He was down 0-2 in the 9th today and there was minimal worry about fanning

I hate using Thundersturck. Too cliche for me

Rowand hasn't earned a move up in the order, in fact no one has. I say that no changes should really be made until we see a bit more. I don't think our lineup will really have its defined roles until late June when The big man is back and we know what we have in Row-Dye. Also, it's too bad that AJ has been such a disappointment at the plate because he would have been a guy you could hit 3 or 5 but he's continued to not hit as well as he did a few eyars ago.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Apr 17, 2005 -> 06:35 PM) Joe was 0-3 going into the 9th today. He got an IF hit that resulted in moving a run into 3rd that Jose would not have. At best that point is debatable and I'm not sure if it even matters. Let's not fool ourselves into thinking that infield hits are a big part of Joe's game. They aren't much of Jose's game either but I would bet that Jose gets more of them. Still, I don't think it really matters.

I thought the flying uder the radar junk was over with but it might be starting in a new lifeform.....
