Yeah, good call on that Astros thing.

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 11:52 PM) do i push my luck tomorrow....i gotta see how i feel maybe in the morning, i have all day to creat one. Keep it rolling. Garland loves you.

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 11:49 PM) The power of jimbo strikes again with a succesful game thread...now shall i start tomorrow in oakland also? I told ya you had the stuff. The bullpen is filthy. Im waiting for an opposing team to comment on it. Oh and Ozzie used the pen to perfection tonight, especially with turning Swisher around like that. Lets get the next two!!!

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 11:37 PM) Just got in from running (ran for 1:45 to avoid watching) and have seen nothing but this thread. I thought Contreras was getting shelled. I said earlier Pods is looking good and JD needs a day off but Guillen won't sit him until he is out of his funk. I also believe the hittin is what is going to hurt us this season more than the pitching. McDougal went two innings? Good move. He was wild, but has since settled down. MMAC was awesome and the hitting is coming around. Scotty PODS has done nothing but prove alot of doubters wrong. He has been electric. Erstad even when playing terrible finds a way to make an impact, and Thome is heating up.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 11:35 PM) This bullpen has been such a nice surprise to open the season. I dont know about you, but i expected them to be hard to hit. I just didnt expect some of this pin point control. MMAC has looked unhittable. AAArdsma is the real surprse.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 11:34 PM) Yeah, I'm not sure who the last out of the 8th is on. I mean, once Crede saw Thome make a serious break for home then going to second is the right move in order to keep the rally going. Did Thome get the sign from Shines or what? They were being really agressive and fouled up. Not a huge deal. Sometimes that doesnt work.

Just got back from the bar, great baseball by us tonight, situational hitting, agressive baserunning, nice.

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 08:47 PM) I will now open myself up to new names Mitchell's Drinker Those damn landlords are the devil I tell ya. It was obviously because of the popularity of the sox and the title. They had no problem with Jimbo's until now? Please. One of the worst things about the world today is the lack of common courtesy and respect, not to mention the love of tradition.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 06:49 PM) I'd just like to thank the Red Sox for this thoughtful, early season gift. I wish Stoney was filling in.

Thats pretty freakin terrible timing, proving once again that women are the root of all evil.

QUOTE(SoxPhan7 @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 08:31 PM) See when i first saw it, i was more worried about the torn shirt. Bobby had a bit of forshadowing when he was in the boat with Tony and said something like he is afraid to kill someone because of all the DNA testing and whatnot. I am hoping they dont find and DNA on shirt. But i am sure the writers wont go there. I thought of maybe a piece of his chain or a medallion got torn off by the kid. Iguess it could have been chest hair.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 07:23 PM) Speaking of that Cubs game, I was listneing to Pat and Ron on the way back to school, because it was the only baseball game on. In the future, I'll listen to silence over that garbage - god, Santo is horrendous. santo is by far one of the worst broadcasters of all time. Besides his shouts during key plays, he doesnt seem to even know how to judge the game. He was b****ing about the umps the entire game today.

The Treasure of Kahn. Pretty good book in three parts.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 05:39 PM) Mike Hampton tore a tendon in his arm. He's out another 6-9 months. That man is one of the most unhealthy players I've ever seen. This is why you dont give out long contracts to pitchers.

Gem of a post from the MLB cubs board

Carlos Lee is proving to somewhat worthless this season.

He still has good stuff. People just know what to look for to hit now. He needs to change up the way he approaches hitters.

god I hope this is true, I would LOVE to go back up to Mil and watch a game. That stadium and town are a drunk's dream

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 12:32 PM) Ive used AnyDVD and really didnt like it. The DVD cloner looks interesting. Has anyone used it though. If Im gonna pay for these Id like to hear some kind of success story about them. I use DVD CLoner IV i think it is. I have only had one problem with a DVD. Ive found the most successful way to burn dvd's is to burn the movie only, otherwise you can get trapped in the menu

DVD Cloner. Look it up, it gets great ratings.

Thats the thing. Maybe Danks and BMAC are a wash, though I think Danks is more suited for our ballpark and he is a lefty. The kicker is that we got Masset who has looked nothing short of great at some times. The combination of the two is what makes KW a winner here.

QUOTE(Brian @ Apr 9, 2007 -> 08:40 AM) I don't think Ari has Median. He just said he heard Del Toro is falling out of love with it and may come available. Do we see a Benicio cameo? Carla Gugino looked very tasty. Come on people look up the name of the city that the movie refers to. Its Medellín. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medell%C3%ADn

Righties throwing fastballs are ok with me. Im thinking Jimbo has the magic touch!!!

QUOTE(thedoctor @ Apr 8, 2007 -> 09:22 PM) bring back eduardo perez. send down BA too since he can then play everyday, apparently Erstad has won that spot.

Danks was a freaking stud, he got by one one pitch for the first few innings, and once his change and curve were hitting the strike zone, he was inducing some horrible swings. You gotta love seeing why KW wanted this kid over BMAC, he got alot of good ground balls and showed great makeup for a young kid. He was fooling some of the best contact hitters in the game. Secondly AAArdsma has really impressed the hell out of me. There is no doubt right now we fleeced the cubs for this kid. His pitches have so much movement on them its ridiculous. The pen is looking good early. The offense will come around with a little more warmth, im not worried.
