After all that we have gone thru, how is that Carrasco is our most dependable RHP reliever besides Jenks?

I dont even know if i'd want to be an MLBer if it's like Toby, where pretty much any thing i do, whether it's positive or even just where i have to run around multiple bases... i get laughed at by announcers and teammates alike.

finally he got that 5th in a row

QUOTE (YASNY @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 10:49 AM) How can you be disinterested in a first place team if you are a fan of the team? If the Sox were 3 back today, I'd still be interested. In fact, I might even be obsessively interested. Sometimes you make yourself disinterested so as to brace for the let down when a team just isnt good enough to win it all. That said, a Cardinals fan who did that in 06 wouldve significantly hurt how much enjoyment they'd get from the final result. So you dont want to do that unless you're sure yr bad. This is what I do w/ the Chicago Bears most years.

Before the year I remember thinking that our bullpen looked solid and that it could be downright dominating if the old Mike Mac came back. Now if he comes back and is his old self, I would probably just go back to saying it looks solid. Real solid, though.

QUOTE (Disco72 @ Sep 7, 2008 -> 09:19 AM) I think you read that incorrectly. The way I read that was that all four doctors thought that he could not return in two months or less, meaning he would not be ready for the Series. yea just looking at things through rose colored glasses.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 6, 2008 -> 06:38 PM) My dad talked to 4 different orthopedic surgeons last night (ironically, he's at a convention this wknd), and not one of them thinks a baseball hitter could return within 2 months of this type of surgery. Too much in the way of stress on the wrists of a baseball swing. phew, so he'll be back for the world series with a quick heal.

The rare Clutch Jim I take back my Jenks/Thome trade

Just a thought but did Ozzie take away Vlady's intensity some by playing w/ him there during the AB?

Wow, with Wass in there i was sure i'd catch Flight 93 showing at 11pm. Now i'm not so sure, 1 hr left.

woah now

Wass!!! so at least we know the game is 15 inn.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Sep 6, 2008 -> 08:42 PM) That's what I turned and said to my son...why the hell not. 3 innings of pathetic at bats. I've really seen enough of Owens and Fields on this roster to last a lifetime for me.... Fields' 23 HR in 373 at bats means we have to get him a chance next yr. Perhaps with a returning Uribe to compete. I'm not a Fields guy by any stretch but he's too young to give up on just yet. Unless it's for a total package.

Man Figgins' stats are identical from rhb and lhb

AJ has obviously learned from Quentin's post atbat anger situation by hitting himself in the head w/ the bat. Hard. Nothing of importance in that body part, of course.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Sep 6, 2008 -> 08:34 PM) I have killed Julia Child and the Duncan Doughnuts dude... True story. I was mocking Julia Child one day and that night I found out she was dead, and the Duncan Doughnuts dude I was talking about "time to make the dounuts and we turned on the radio and he was dead. I had a dream once where Verne Troyer was chasing me around w/ power tools. fortunately no truth has ever come of it

OC swingin at in-yr-ear

Josh Fields is next year's PH and thats it.

No, dont show replays of that inning NO i could go the rest of my life happy w/o seeing replays of that inning

QUOTE (BlackBetsy @ Sep 6, 2008 -> 08:29 PM) Can we get Jeff Abbott to pinch hit lead off in the 14th? he had that one clutch dinger, right? and it was leading off an xtra inning?

it said he had one AAA homer. how seriously fast must that pitch have been.

This game is dropping off a table re: excitement

Looks like no German Fest for me tonight.
