I don't think I'd play him EVERY day either, but I'd say if we play 6 games in a week, he should be over there for AT LEAST 4 of them, if not 5. You saw what he did when JM moved him over there in June. He got his average up to almost .290 (up like 30 or 40 points), and he was putting up some pretty big numbers. I think the offensive output increase more than makes up for the defense we lose by putting him there in place of PK.

And? He was very hot for about a month -- I think he deserves some slack. He's in a funk right now, but hopefully yesterday was the start of hot streak #2 for '03.

Ah yes, forgot about Thomas' request. Strike my "move him back to 1B" comment. But, when his knee is 100%, he should go right back there.

Yes, that would have been some weird and funky s*** if they both would have hit #400 on the same day. Both Thomas and Bagwell are future HOF'ers. Only 35 have 400+...that's some pretty elite company.

Do you know if that .140 in the last 12 games includes his 3-4 day on Sunday? If not, ouch. If so, double ouch. Put him back at 1B and see what happens.

We know what you said -- but on this board, it takes more than 1 sentence statements to start a discussion. A good thing to do would have been to say "I still have hope the Sox can win the division, followed by the reasons why you feel that way (such as MB and EL pitching great, our offense starting to come around, etc, etc). "I still have hope" isn't really a good backbone for a conversation.

I think they know more about that game than most, simply because they probably see much more of the games than your typical baseball fan. I do, though, also think that the networks they work for (such as ESPN or FOX) has some kind of agenda with certain teams, so they are "asked" to push those teams and/or the players on those teams. That's when I think they say moronic things -- when they aren't simply analyzing, but also fulfilling the wishes of the network. Plus, you have to keep in mind that people like Peter Gammons are not impartial -- Gammons is a huge Red Sox fan, so by nature he's going to favor them, even if his job calls for no biases. Myopic views often lead to moronic statements.

Well, if AT&T used "Can you hear me now? Good.", Verizon's legal time might have something to say about that.

Also worthy of mention from yesterday's game was Miguel Olivo continuing to terrorize would-be base stealers. That Sanchez guy on the Tigers tried to steal off of him twice, and both times he was out by a mile. The 2nd time, Sanchez looked at Olivo like he hated him, LOL.

LMAO!

Guess he wants to go to Chicago where everyone will know they have no chance of winning. Beats Portland where some people get false hopes, only to have them fall on their face LIKE ALWAYS when it matters most. Atta boy Scottie, go out a loser -- because without Jordan, that's all you've ever been. I suppose it's only fitting.

Is that a bowl haircut you have? 2 words -- Fantastic Sams. You can scrounge up $10 for a decent cut, can't you?

Not sure of that one. You'd be kissing Hitler then Or f***ing the hell out of him. cluho....are you turning over a new leaf???? youve been quite the potty mouth lately.. what gives???????? Possible mental masturbation caused this??? lol, more like insecurities. The things I am insecure about in my life are completely detatched from this message board -- you can rest assured.

Fear not, Junior will make a reappearance sometime soon.

ldf is not a dips***. please do not act like a child. Judging by his typing abilities (or lack there-of), I'd guess he's about 11. i am soooo hurt by your comments. another quality post from you. The quality of my posts is up for the reader to determine. But, one thing is for certain -- at least my posts are legible and coherent.

Yes, that's her. http://www.geocities.com/kobewatch/

It's stupid stuff that kids do when they have nothing better to do on a summer's night (I'm speaking of the porta potty, not your car being torched). Of course it's infantile, but it's not sick humor and they aren't assholes. It's just some kids out having fun. Unless someone's hurt, what's the big deal? I'd be willing to bet that a large percentage of the males on this board did some pretty stupid s*** in their younger days (say in the 12-16 age range). That doesn't mean that we're all assholes, does it?

Seems that this board sure is selective in what they choose to accept from BBTN announcers. One day they're idiots, and the next they are very observant. It's gotta be 1 or the other.

I know it was yesterday and it doesn't matter much now, but yes, Crede stole 2nd, and the throw went into CF, allowing him to advance to 3rd.

We can't worry about KC or MIN. All we can do is worry about the Sox. If the Sox play their game, everything will fall into place.

"No explaining it" -- DJ Sox with their 7th straight hit, and they lead it 5-2.

LOL, would you like to make a prediction for Frank's AB?

Christ...a little flipper for a single, and the Sox have had 5 straight hits with 2 outs after having 0 for the first 6 2/3 This team...

How sweet it is. 4-2 Sox after a 3-run PH HR by Graffy!
