QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 07:29 PM) If only AJP was on the bases also. They make Thome look like a speedster. LOL, that happened friday or saturday of last week against the royals(saturday I believe), I said to one of my friends "this is the slowest threesome any team in the majors can have on base."

GOOD SPEED ABOARD.

That a boy Vaz, get our boys right back up to the plate.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 07:15 PM) What is the point of calling out everyone on everything? Jeez. Did you know that Ozuna would hit a 2-RBI double there or something? LOL this coming from you.

QUOTE(Felix @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 07:15 PM) I like how you pull these posts up after something good happens. Try replying to them when they are actually made, rather than later. What did you expect? All you have been doing is bashing jphat the past few days, you had it coming.

PABLO

*sigh*

Good time to break out of a slump Brian.

Time for the Widge to tie this up.

The rally one doubles, cmon Alex.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 07:04 PM) Very good swing by PK. The ball is absolutely flying out of the park. As my mlb.tv continues to hate me I have to watch this through gameday. Nice to see Pauly go yard to right center though.

Pauly

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 11:47 AM) Didn't he do the AL Division series? He did the NLCS for sure. He's Much better then Buck and friends.

There isn't a show on the score that I like. They all suck imo.

The Row.

Flash, it seems that you'd rather be in the Twins situation then ours which I just don't understand at all.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 10:20 AM) Do the Twins have any plans of moving him to the rotation this year? I thought it was quite odd that they have him in the pen and Baker in the rotation. I've got him stashed on my fantasy team and hoping he'll be in the rotation soon. I think he'll be in the rotation before the all start break. The plan was to nurse him along like they did with Johan but Liriano is just too darn good and he's ready to go. I'd be pretty surprised if he's not in the rotation pretty soon.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 07:47 AM) Guys, a pitcher with that low a K/9 total over an entire season/career is not going to be able to sustain an elite ERA or WHIP. Really, this is elementary statistical analysis. He was 37th in qualified pitchers in the AL in K/9 in 2005, yet he had one of the lowest ERAs. That, my friends, is a fluke. A greater percentage of balls he throws are put into play than other pitchers. It's not about the defense doing things for you. It's about the fact that when balls are put into play, things like hits and runs tend to happen slightly more often than when a pitcher strikes a hitter out. When things like hits and runs happen slightly more, your ERA and WHIP tends to suffer. Jon is and always will be a very serviceable 4/5 starter, occasionally when he's really on (like last year) he's a 3. He will probably end up this season with 14-16 wins and an era between 4.2 and 4.4. Those are extremely realistic projections based on his career numbers. They are also just fine for what this team needs from him. Garland is a sinkerballer, he wants guys to put the ball in play. The end.

Punch my bag.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:38 PM) Well at least i have never changed my opinion... Ha, I'd knew you'd chime in. I have no problem with people like you who have never liked him(though I obviously disagree) but all the sudden it seems like everyone here hates the guy. Whatever though, each to his own.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:35 PM) http://www.kcrg.com F3 is the rating I saw on the NWS site, could be wrong, but the campus got hit. Town looks f***ed up. Bah, s***. I got a ton of friends at Iowa, hopefully everyone is ok.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 11:09 PM) It works, even though it's wrong. Name me 1 thing Pods can do that Freel can't? It doesn't exist, although Freel can play 6 different positions better than Pods can play 1, draws more walks, and steals at just as high a percentage as Pods. The Pods love here is pretty fun, he did a great job as the leadoff man for us last year, but he's a really fast guy (when healthy anyways) who creates havoc when he gets on base. That's all. Pods love?? He has become one of the more hated guys on this site. The funny thing is how hated he has become among most people on here.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 09:17 PM) I guarantee you we would not have gone all the way last year without Pods, anyway, shape, or form. Bingo, the end.

QUOTE(Shingotime!! @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 10:37 PM) I believe Lilly pitched today. He did. Burnett is pitching on saturday not Lilly.

QUOTE(Sam @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 10:08 PM) Exactly, he choked with the Knights. It's not that he choked, he's just not good at that level of competition. It's really that simple.
