Somehow...I doubt this will be the last time we have a thread with this name.

The 2 remaining big bats come up this inning J.D. Drew gets it. Damn.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 06:10 PM) Seattle needs to end this inning offensively, get him back out there. On that we all agree.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 05:59 PM) I don't think Anderson should start over Erstad. Over Podsednik, yes, but if it's Erstad or Anderson, then it's Erstad. Just wait until Erstad has a statistically significant # of at bats. Just wait.

Gosh. I'm. So. Shocked. (via the AP).

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 06:00 PM) And that doesn't make the pitcher for me, so I guess thats why I don't really have a problem. He just is something new to this game, and is a blast to watch, almost as fun as watching a 21 year old dominate one of the best lineups in the league. Go get'em Felix. When there's a 0 in a certain column on the score board...this is vastly more fun.

7...and he doens't have to face Ortiz again.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 05:51 PM) Somebody please give me a recap. What great play did Anderson make that saved a run. Must of been when I had to run outside. Diving catch. If you go to the MLB recap you can find a link to the highlight.

Don't you at least wait until like the 8th to do this? Couple great defensive plays already in the game helping out.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 05:31 PM) Hell I believe it...seems like more if you ask me. What can you actually do about it?!?...warm up longer? What the hell game was that last year he gave up 8-9 in the first? That game was against the Cubs, and it was Buehrle's first real, real, real bad game last year. He just got shelled.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 05:21 PM) If they both pitched a no-no, we would see every k by Dice-k and maybe 1 of Felix. Thats what im sick of. ....speaking of which....

I think we are all better off when these types of people don't wind up getting time on the airwaves and encouraged by the media establishment. And it's not just Imus.

5 quality starts in a row.

Thanks Bobby.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 03:07 PM) The whole design of the stadium is retarded. The outfield shape, the foul territory, the whole unused upper deck. The upper deck was used for a while, but they covered it up a couple years ago because they could never sell the things.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 03:05 PM) I actaully do as well Rock, but Jenks I beleive has gone 3 days in a row now, and early in the season, I just don't like that if you can avoid. If Bobby's specifically having issues getting his arm worked into shape...3 in a row might be an even better idea. Probably should rest him tomorrow, but it might help him loosen up more.

QUOTE(Rex Kicka** @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 03:04 PM) That foul territory in Oakland is huge. And I'm pretty sure they've added seats in the last 15 years so it used to be even bigger. 1 out.

QUOTE(CanOfCorn @ Apr 11, 2007 -> 02:56 PM) If Paulie drives in a few more runs, Aardsman to finish. If not, I say MacDougal. If Bobby is your closer...you send Bobby right back out there and tell him to get his arm out of his ass. But you do so with a short leash if someone gets on.

Thome to be walked.

Erstad pops out to shallow LF. Uribe scores.

Called a strike on a close pitch.

10 in a row

9 in a row

8 balls in a Row. Erstad up.

6 straight out of the strike zone by Street Make it 7.
