Pauly scolds it right there. Stay right there Paul.

Cmon Pauly, get a hit for yourself here.

QUOTE(GASHWOUND @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:25 PM) You think would cut Higg even though he's making that much??? I don't think so..They still got to pay him and I don't think they would just cut a guy making that much..the Yankees would, but the Tigers? Well, all he's doing is hurting the team.

Iguchi's amazing, he really is.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:19 PM) Let him go for the CG Ozzie! I think that's a given now, what's he at like 85 pitches?

Haha, great thread title. Congrats Pedro.

Yeesh, he's just making these guys look silly now.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:18 PM) Garland's ERA is now 1.45. And Falling.

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:17 PM) Higginson's avg is now at 0.087 Ya, well good thing the Tigers didn't give him a big contract or anything like that.

QUOTE(JimH @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:13 PM) Here is the other thing, Podsednik is not hitting great but did you ever notice, every time there's somebody on base he always gets them over? Walk, ground ball to the right place, etc. He seems to always get the job done in that respect. Scott's done everything right. He's in a bit of a hitting slump but he's still getting on base and he just made that whole inning in the 4th by himself. Like you said he's getting guys over when he has to and he's also come up with big hits for us this year. He's an impressive player.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:11 PM) Cotts should get an inning today. Not if Garland continues to deal.

TIMO!!!!!!1

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 1, 2005 -> 03:08 PM) We should rest some players now and play our scrubs rest of the way.... We have no one to put in.

Leadoff walk to Aaron.

Wow, I can't believe someone made a thread about this. Anyways, Hawk also says there are exceptions to every rule.

Pena hits one on the nose right to Scott. Quick inning for Jon

QUOTE(JimH @ May 1, 2005 -> 02:43 PM) I agree with you, he is trying to improve and personally I think he's doing better. With announcers though, it's a matter of opinion. Some will like him and others won't. Sometimes you get a first impression of a player or announcer and no matter what they do, it's hard to come off that initial impression. I guess that's human nature. Jim, no doubt. For me also this year it seems that Hawk and Dj are having more conversation up in the booth, in years past there hasn't really been to much conversing going on between the two, this year it's much better imo.

QUOTE(JimH @ May 1, 2005 -> 02:39 PM) DJ had more play by play today, in the last two innings. I actually thought he did a much better job this time. But I am a nice guy and pretty understanding. (quickman at the game today, I can get away with this). I've thought he's been getting better each and each time but I think there is such a hatred for dj around here that some people just won't admit it.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ May 1, 2005 -> 12:56 PM) Ozzie just said on the manager's show with John Rooney that Willie Harris is out today due to a personal problem and may miss a few days. Wow, hopefully everything is ok with him. Anyways, I think Kenny really is going to have to sign Ozzie to play ss for a day.

QUOTE(T R U @ May 1, 2005 -> 12:45 PM) too bad they went too Wow.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ May 1, 2005 -> 12:30 PM) What do you expect, Dye is sick, a lefty is pitching (absence of AJ) and Lopez can play SS better than Willie. Quite frankly, this is just about what I expected. Aboz, I wasn't complaining cause like you said there's really not many options and this is about what I expected also, I'm just saying that todays lineup doesn't look good on paper, which in a lot of instances means absolutely nothing.

Lineups in, not pretty: lf podsednik 2b iguchi dh everett 1b konerko cf rowand rf perez 3b crede c widger ss lopez

QUOTE(soxman352000 @ May 1, 2005 -> 10:12 AM) He could have hired that whore Denny Neagle had. She looked pretty cheap :puke :puke :puke :puke :puke :puke

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ May 1, 2005 -> 09:51 AM) That is one innocent after party, did you have cake and punch too? They played pin the tail on the donkey.

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 1, 2005 -> 02:51 AM) Anyone else notice him taking a first pitch fast ball right down the middle of the plate nearly every time up now? Then he swings at the s***ty pitches and either k's or pops it up. When you are going bad you are going bad. He really needs to get his s*** together along with dye. I still think it would be a bad idea to bring him back next year for any significant amount of money but we will see. Yup, that's also what Crede did all year last year. He was going so bad he'd swing at first pitches in the dirt and then he'd take the first pitch if it was right down the middle of the plate. As far as the contract situation goes I think the best way to handle it still is to wait and see. See how Pauly battles through this year and see how much money he demands. I really like Durazo and Millar wouldn't be a bad plan either, Snow wouldn't be bad but he doesn't thrill me. Should be an interesting scenario to follow. EDIT: qwerty, do you know how much Dmitry's option is for?
