Milkman delivers

I sure hope Freddy is ready to step up and save the bullpen tomorrow because I doubt McCarthy's going 6 innings tonight.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 09:14 PM) BTW, Detroit's top prospect Justin Verlander came up and threw five and a third innings giving up four runs. So, it's not just our top prospects coming up and getting hit around. Well, when he does it 5 straight starts, then I'll feel better.

QUOTE(Sox Hustler @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 09:12 PM) Why can't any of our prospects give us some consistent solid efforts?? Because they're never actually good. We're good at producing sluggers, that's it.

AAA

God damn it, McCarthy. He's so far away from being ready for the majors.

One thing I give McCarthy is that every ump that calls his games has squeezed him a bit. This guy today is giving him nothing on the corners.

There will be no semblance of smallball the rest of this game. They've all got homers on the mind, which isn't exactly a bad thing against Nomo.

Balls flying out to center tonight. Another bomb by Uribe, 6-1.

QUOTE(JimH @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 08:57 PM) They are smoking McCarthy. Harrelson and DJ are talking about McCarthy's problem locating pitches. Let's read between the lines here, those two guys see a lot of baseball and they are basically saying he's not ready. Out of the inning, we're up 5-1. He's already had his chance against the wretched offense of the Royals. If he sucks it up again today, he has to go back to AAA.

Single by another s***bag, it begins...

One of the s***bags hits a bomb. That's 1 homerun for today.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 08:15 PM) Well I heard that KW offered Carlos Lee and I think BMac for him and BB said no. So it would've taken alot. Maybe Steff could confirm this, but I remember KW inquiring about him and Mulder. Didn't Beane pretty much say that he wasn't trading Hudson or Mulder to any AL team?

Crede must be the strongest guy on the team if he's able to swing a 48 pound bat. At least that's what it seems like.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 08:45 PM) Now mccarthy has yet another lead. Can he keep it for once? If he can't keep this lead against the s***bags, he doesn't even deserve to be on the team.

5-0 on a Dye GS. Nice, very nice.

Glad Rowand K'd on an 89 mph fastball.

1-0 on a PK single to left.

I swear to God it looked like that ball went over the fence.

QUOTE(chi-guy2 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 07:59 PM) wait im confused, so is that bs or is it going to happen, because i just dont get the idea of us giving cash considerations im confused That post was full of BS means it's not real.

QUOTE(whitesoxjr27 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 07:08 PM) looks like the indians are going to win both games against the tigers :finger Yeah, those pricks just keep winning. I really hope we sweep the Rays, that'd be huge especially with our two worst starters going and Garcia pitching at home. It would almost be a disaster to get swept or lose this series.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 07:05 PM) Well they asked him about it and he just answered the question. Still, it gives me hope. Just started raining here again, so I'm sure it's raining at the stadium.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 06:41 PM) Not really, Hermy talked about how Schmidt wouldn't ruin chemistry, he said they wouldn't let anyone ruin chemistry otherwise they'd throw the guy into the corner. Then ozzie just talked about it saying a lot of teams want Schmidt, blah, blah, blah. The fact that the team is now talking about Schmidt really makes me think he's coming here.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 06:34 PM) *cough*estes*cough* Kim, Dessens, guy from Padres whose name I can't remember, Prior without a right arm, etc.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 05:41 PM) ....and I'll ask again why wouldn't you want your top 3 starters starting against your division, whether they have faith in Jose or not, it makes perfect sense to have your best guys go against your division. I'm just saying that they're not making any attempt to hide their lack of faith in those two. It leads me to believe that there's a change coming.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 4, 2005 -> 02:37 PM) Yeah, if he has any more games like he had yesterday his asking price will sure drop as the deadline approaches. Problem is, there would be a good reason for his price to drop...people simply not wanting him. No matter how s***ty he performs, many teams will still want him. I guarantee that.
