That a boy Mack.

RALLY CREDE

lol dj. Nice to see Javy pitch over a leadoff walk.

Javy's patented hanging curve with 2 strikes.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 06:18 PM) Why isn't this game on ESPN? Are you getting blacked out for some dumb reason? Cause espn loves to do that. They blacked out every Sox game on espn when I was at school, really pissed me off. QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 06:18 PM) i\'m watching mlb gameday and they placed the circle close to the fence, how close was granderson\'s fly ball to out? Just shy of the warning track.

Mack in center tonight is one of the worst moves ozzie has made this year. I'm really not happy about that.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 05:33 PM) or at least that's what we'll tell them He'd be pretty close to dominate. He has sure dominated the national league this season.

Mack in the lineup tonight. That could really prove costly.

QUOTE(SadChiSoxFanOptimist @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 05:05 PM) This guy a lefty? Yes.

Good news: The Red Sox are stuck with Josh Beckett for 3 more years.

Yankees lost today, so our WC lead is now up to 3 games.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 02:36 PM) Hopefully Ozzie resists the need to put Mack in center. We need Brian out in centerfield. Especially in this park it becomes extra crucial.

Woke up, checked soxtalk, about to go back to sleep soon, I will get up and watch the Sox game. Tough day.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 01:46 PM) During his interview, the columnist also criticized the Chicago Tribune's media writer for not calling him or his editor before writing articles about the issue. BAHAHAHAHAHA, are you f'n joking me???? Wow.

QUOTE(iamshack @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 01:32 PM) Did anyone think Crawford might be available before now? Besides, KW has been decidedly silent about alot of things he likes since the blown Omar Vizquel deal... Did you see Thome coming? I don't think he had to worry so much about keeping Mack and Cintron on the down low.... Crawford's name has been brought up for a while now, so yes, some people have thought that he's been available. We still don't actually know if TB is shopping him or not. As far as Thome, he was one of the hottest rumors last offseason, I don't think it was really a shock to anyone to see Jim get traded here. Aaron for Jim was talked about a ton.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 12:27 PM) Carter definately. The Sox--and Carter for that matter--need to see that he can hit non-rookie ball pitching. He should be moved up within a week or two if he continues hit. Lummy will remain in AA for the year, most likely, but I can see Lance getting a couple starts with Charlotte. Whisler could move up as well, but in the Barons rotation there is no room. But, if Lance gets promoted, Wes would likely take his place. Agreed with what you said. I do think Lance will stay in bham for the rest of the year though. Unfortunately for Wes, there really is no room at all in Birmingham.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 12:26 PM) He thinks he's someone that can get a major league contract. And last I remember a ML contract makes more than a minor league contract. Can you blame him? QUOTE(SnB @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 12:28 PM) ITS HIS TURN NOW! I made that same post and then deleted it.

Not really. Mostly because there are really no front line starters available. The Tigers can add to their offense, the Yankees and Sawx can as well and it won't bug me.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 10:52 AM) The last time i saw 6:00am on a clock i think i was drunk :sleep :sleep :sleep And playing beeramid.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 10:46 AM) In Kalamazoo now, will be at the game tonight... Let's not suck Javy, i'm not driving 10 hours for nothing Woah, you live.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 06:01 AM) You only had to look at the Warthog rotation to start the season with Harrell, Russell, Whisler and Egbert to see that SP depth in our minor league system certainly isn't a problem at all, even without the likes of Gonzalez and Haigwood no longer there. Wes and Harrell both intrigue me a lot.

Happy bday Cheat.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 01:42 AM) Umps won the game for the Yankees tonight...thanks jackasses. And that play wasn't even that close at first, I have no idea how the ump missed that.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 03:19 AM) And this is in response to Flash's post about Anderson and his .200 stat line as well; Have a look at the guys who were drafted before BA; Delmon Young Rickie Weeks Kyle Sleeth Tim Stauffer Chris Lubanski Ryan Harvey Nick Markakis Paul Maholm John Danks Ian Stewart Michael Aubrey Lastings Milledge Aaron Hill Ryan Wagner Only 3 of those guys Weeks, Markakis and Maholm are currently in the major leagues along with BA. Someone like Ryan Harvey is majorly struggling down in A ball. BA's shown lately he does have what it takes to hit at this level, and the Torii Hunter comparisons are pretty spot on at this stage. I don't think you can really argue majorly about the Sox's drafting when the guys they have picked in the past few years have made it to the majors, or are doing very well in AA or AAA. At least you know they are going to make it instead of being a high risk - high reward type of draft pick that may never make it out of the major leagues. To me it doesn't even matter that Anderson is batting .200. He's made a ton of strides this year and has really improved. I had my doubts about Anderson because of the little hitch he has in his swing but I'm very confident now that he will be a solid major league player.
