QUOTE(knightni @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 12:34 PM) I remember the game vs Bal the other night. Hawk says, "Miller's a hell of a pitching coach; as a manager, he's a HELL of a pitching coach." LOL, I think that was Steve Stone actually during the espn broadcast.

He's used that slider already more in this start then any other start this year it seems.

Jose using that slider a lot. I like it.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 12:30 PM) Wow that reeks of desperation... They need to fire that pitching staff :puke Looks like Mazilli was a victim of his own success at the beginning of the season.

QUOTE(ChWRoCk2 @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 12:29 PM) widger also hits it to ss to end inning 4-0 Pull baseball

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 12:27 PM) I believe Lee Mazzilli was just fired Wow.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 12:28 PM) He'll be back in the minors, once Halladay comes back. Correct, I'm just saying one day he will be a solid pitcher imo.

QUOTE(knightni @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 12:26 PM) It could be the last. Mcgowan's going to be a good major league pitcher imo.

BAHAHAHAHA AT DJ!!!!!!1

YESSSSSSS

Pauly sucks

Cmon Pauly, drive him in.

Anyone else think Carl's homer was longer then 460 yesterday? It almost landed on the concourse.

That a boy Gooch.

Blah, hard hit ball. 1 down.

I enjoyed that half inning Now, time for Scotty to right himself and start up the offense.

I wish Jose would throw more sliders, it's really a plus pitch.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 11:35 AM) Oooh..sporting the Zach Morris cell phone BEST. SHOW. EVER

I don't listen to Rooney and Farmer to often because I'm usually either at the games or watching the games but when I do they're a joy to listen to.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 05:36 AM) Ha, doesn't surprise me, if someone made me available via waivers or free agency the yankees might give me a shot. Good luck Shingo, just not against us.

QUOTE(kdhargo @ Aug 4, 2005 -> 07:11 AM) I know it is in retrospect looking back now at the 2000 draft, but after looking at the draft a bit, I had a question pop up that I thought I would ask this knowledge board. The Sox took Borchard at #12 in 2000, with the Phillies taking Utley at #15. We now know today that Utley is the more 'established' MLB-level player, but even w/o such hindsight, why is it that the Sox chose to take Borchard with this pick and not someone like Utley? Utley had better numbers across the board, including power numbers, and he was/is an IF, with Borchard as an OF. So, my question is simple: why did they choose what they did? Wouldn't one have thought that equally (and a bit better) power and average numbers coming from the IF position (Utley) would be more coveted and rarer than from an OF position (Borchard)? Were the Sox that in love with Borchard? I'm sure someone can answer this question better but Borchard had and has all the tools to be a solid major leaguer. Borch has a ton of power potential, good speed, good arm, he's a good defensive outfielder, unfortunately that swing of his has been a little to long and he hasn't been able to put it all together yet. Hopefully he'll figure it out one day whether he's in our organization, the Padres organization or anyone elses.

I think all parties almost have to deny that a deal took place. It would just look bad, imo.

I'm making 1 comment in here and that's it. They're in a funk right now I don't buy the crap that they suck at home because of big crowds that's just bs to me. The Sox haven't been playing that well as of late and good thing we ran into baltimore who's been playing a lot worse. Once we right the ship which will happen soon then everything will fall back into place, on the road and at home.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Aug 3, 2005 -> 04:49 PM) Though I own probably every product ever produced with Frank's mug on it, and there's a fare amount of it, Frank could never compare to Griffey in that department. Griffey would be a huge draw. It'd be awesome to have 2 of the greatest hitters of the '90s on this team. Not to mention two guys that never touched roids and I'm positive that neither of them have ever used them.
