God, I'd love to see ARod shove it up Papelbon's ass right now. Boo.

I still think he's going to be a hell of a pitcher. I don't think he'll necessarily be an ace but I do believe that he'll be a solid number 2.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 22, 2007 -> 09:22 PM) I believe this team has all the pieces on it to win a world series. Whether those pieces produce and stay healthy like they can is another question. Just like last years team had enough talent to win the Series (as did the 2003 Sox club...or at least I think it was 03 when they had Everett, Alomar, Colon, Loiaza, Buehrle, etc) this years club does as well (the talent in the rotation and pen is there, will the production be there?? and this team does have a pretty talented line-up). Ya, that. I absolutely love this bullpen and if you have a bullpen like we do, you can make a lot of noise. And yes, it was the 03 team you're thinking of. I think that year haunted most before 05, because that team WAS the most talented in baseball that year.

I want the first sweep of the season.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Apr 22, 2007 -> 08:44 AM) Ahhhhh Bush's true colors. Where is Kap when you need him? (I bet no one knows what mine really is. Hint:Star Wars) I have never seen a full Star Wars, so I'll just say that avatar is...different.

Have a good one, sir.

I hope there is enough time left in the season to make up the .5 game lead that the Orioles have on us in the wild card race.

QUOTE(hitlesswonder @ Apr 21, 2007 -> 09:17 AM) Erstad is actually a significantly better defensive CF than Anderson. Both Cowley and Gregor have reported that Anderson has trouble going back on balls and implied he doesn't give maximum effort in the OF. I'm pretty sure that's one reason Guillen has soured on him. Last night Ozzie said flat out that Anderson isn't as good as Erstad defensively and will not be replacing him in CF. I think Anderson's defense is greatly overrated. Well if it's been reported, it must be true. Anderson is one of the best defensive cf's in baseball, nobody can convince me otherwise.

Daaaaaaaaa Bulls! 3 more to go.

Great hitting, got inside the ball and nailed into right.

Make them pay Joe, jesus.

Worst. Avatar. Evar.

QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 21, 2007 -> 03:46 AM) Who's Conteras? Uh oh, remember last time he made the name goof.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 20, 2007 -> 02:10 PM) Went to ISU if I remember correctly. He did. Buehrle is the best, btw.

The only place I really want to go to that I haven't been to is Vegas, which will happen when I'm 21. I honestly think I'd get bored in other countries minus areas like Cancun and such.

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Apr 20, 2007 -> 05:28 AM) In some 410 odd career ABs, hes shown that he has no ability to hit MLB pitching, huh. Thats enough of a sample size for me, I'm sold!! And besides that, didn't Ozzie want this team based on pitching and defense? Wouldn't it be nice to have one of the best defensive cf's in baseball out there everday? Could you imagine how nice it would be to have Mack in left and Brian in center? It'd make me(and I'm sure everyone else) about a billion times more comfortable with the outfield, we'd definitely be covering some ground out there. As much as I want to see Brian given a chance, I've come to the realization that's it's not happening here. Not sure what he did, maybe he is a communist, or maybe it's just the fact that he's not Aaron Rowand, but Ozzie doesn't like the kid and it's unfortunate. We're going to lose a guy who could be a very solid every day player(he'll never be an allstar) because of pure stubbornness, and that's what bothers me most about this whole situation.

The guy really is awesome.

So who is pumped for Yanks-Sawx tomorrow? Go ARod!

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 02:15 PM) Well, Mack is a pretty fluid OFer in his own right, and normally, has a much shorter swing. We have enough long, loopy swings in the lineup, and even though I'm a pretty big BA fan, I'm all for playing the guy that is getting on base. They both play damn good defense. I have absolutely 0 problem with Mack in left field, in fact, I love Mack in left. Brian should be playing center right now, period.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 08:16 AM) ARod's good... Unbelievable.

And so it continues...

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 08:36 AM) Love minor league games, love Iowa. Can't wait to see the Field of Dreams this year (RAGBRAI goes right by it). Nobody loves Iowa.

ARod's good...
