Good start. Lets get at least one back this inning.

Just hit that f***er in the face again, Mark.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ May 2, 2006 -> 10:11 AM) Hawk said he'll be getting some work in the minors before he is called up, if he is called up at all. I'm assuming that he'll be up by the end of the month. That works for me. See if he has anything left(I really don't think he does), hopefully I'm wrong.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 2, 2006 -> 10:08 AM) I want to choke Sabathia's gameday photo LOL, I was thinking the same thing.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 2, 2006 -> 10:07 AM) Sox signed Jeff Nelson Interesting. That doesn't excite me at all but I assume he's going to replace Boone.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 2, 2006 -> 10:05 AM) Widger calls a s***ty game. If he is calling the pitches, mark will give up 3+ runs. I'll take my chances with Widge instead of completely taking Mark off his game if you slow him down.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 2, 2006 -> 10:02 AM) god I hope so. I don't. It'll completely take Mark out of his rythem.

Neither, cause espn is gay as f***.

f*** espn, f*** that station. f*** f*** f*** f*** f*** F UCK f*** F UCK

The team traveled from Anaheim to Cleveland, then go from ending a game at about 11 eastern to playing at noon; also after this game the team comes back home after this 8 game road trip. It's not surprising at all that Ozzie is giving guys breaks.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 2, 2006 -> 07:39 AM) I do believe that was the Timo game winning single game versus the Angels. It was. Iguchi made an error that 9th inning that opened the flood gates.

I'd just like to say I'm pissed off at the schedule makers for cutting into my nap time. That is all. Go Sox!!!!!

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ May 2, 2006 -> 12:21 AM) And here i was thinking i traveled back in time ^^^

Boo blue skin.

Congrats to the Clippers

I would like to say that Thome right now is impressing me more then when he was swinging the bat well. I say that because the guy is scuffling right now but even so everytime we've needed a bit hit, he's delivered. Just absolutely fantastic to know that when our best hitter is struggling, he can still win us games.

BOBBY YOU f***IN STUD. I hate being negative in a win. But enough is a f***in nough ozzie. Stop screwing around in the 9th, please. Bobby and that's all.

Maggs and Thome have nothing to do with each other at all. If Maggs kept his mouth shut when he left, he would have been cheered. Jimmy was nothing but a class act for that organization and they boo him. Horrible.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 1, 2006 -> 12:44 PM) At least I cited my work. Citations are overrated.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 1, 2006 -> 12:40 PM) Okay, that didn't work, but you get the point. And you call yourself an admin. :headshake

Obviously.

QUOTE(knightni @ May 1, 2006 -> 02:52 AM) I want him to not cough it up to the Mariners. 7 innings and 4 earned runs certainly isn't good but it's not like he got rocked.

QUOTE(knightni @ May 1, 2006 -> 02:08 AM) I can see Contreras, Thome, Konerko and Iguchi. I like Buehrle as a player, but he hasn't convinced me yet that he's an All Star this season. Not sure exactly what you want the guy to do but he's 3rd in the al in era and top 5 in whip.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 30, 2006 -> 11:22 PM) Seriously though, 4 of the Cardinals 5 starting pitchers are FA's after this season. Even if they have the new stadium, the only way they're grabbing Lee is if they find a few bargains or young guys to fill their pitching staff. I'm going to assume that even with the injury that Reyes will be in their rotation next year. Mulder will be back if I had to guess as well. You're right though, they're going to have an interesting offseason. As far as Carlos goes, I doubt they're going after the horse. Murton is obviously set in, in left. If Juan doesn't re-sign, Pie will play center and they're stuck with jackass. I'm not sure if the Indians have the resources to get Carlos but whatever let them do it, I'd rather them spend money on their offense then their pitching.

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 1, 2006 -> 01:51 AM) One or two good/bad starts... and everyone is back pretty much equal. This time of season can still be very helpful... and hurtful to an era in just one or two starts. Not worth looking much into a mid five era at this point in the season. Thornton? Thornton currently has pitched 5.2 innings this season and has given up seven hits and walked five. Sure in his last three outings, which was a total of 1.2 innings pitched... he looked alright. Fact of the matter is what he has done with the sox through his brief time in spring training up until this point is no different than what he did with the mariners and the minors. He will pound the strike zone one outing (threw 19 out of 22 pitches for strikes one outing for the sox) and he is also capable of not even throwing 40% of his pitches in the strike zone. I said it the second we got him... he is capable of stringing together multiple good outings that he looks focused and in command...then again he is extremely capable or giving up big innings and losing everything he just had going for him. You forget to mention that 3 of those walks were intentional, and another one was yesterday when that was his first outing since April 13th. So far he looks completely different then he did with Seattle. I'm not sure if it's going to last but as of now he definitely looks better.
