  1. It's funny how garland and pedro basically have the same bb/ip ratio.

     

    If you gave me a helmet and a bat, and told me to face Garland, I wouldnt be scared. Id jump right in there. On the other hand, if you told me to face Pedro, Id tell you to get lost. Pedro is intimidating, Garland is not. Maybe its because Pedro will throw at anyone and be all ready for the fight. I like that. You dont hit a teammate of Pedro because he will get you. If Garland was pitching, they could peg Everett and PK in a row and Jon would still do nothing. Everett might whoop the pitchers ass, but on wouldnt do a thing. He is timid. Pedro lets everyone know whos in charge. Jon doesnt do that.

  2. That's true perhaps, but you also claimed Garland was a worthless wimp, a coward, and that Guillen should lose his job after this season.

     

    Garland pitches like a coward (look guys, I was careful how I said it! :bang ). Watch Pedro pitch. He attacks hitters. He could have faced Babe Ruth without even flinching. And he would have come right at him. He doesnt back down for anyone. Garland is scared of the hitters. He will never be a great if he doesnt gain courage. As for Ozzie, he was here last year and we stunk. Its the new guys who made us good. We are winning in spite of Ozzie. All he does is bring bad publicity with his goofy jokes.

     

    And, McCarthy, all I can say is damn. He will be on my favorites list shortly if he keeps this up. 14 straight innings without allowing a run, but unlike Garland who did his scoreless streak against Detroit and Oakland (when they stunk), BMac has done it against Boston and Texas, the two best offenses around. BMac is an aggressive pitcher, and he will soon be better than Garland could ever hope to be. Ace in the making, and a completely different pitcher than he was earlier. This kid aint scared of nothin'.

  3. Well, we've already established that you aren't a Sox fan. You don't like the players or coach. All you do is whine. So why are you here?

     

    All I do is whine? Right. Im a Sox fan, and I have been for years. I will always be here too. I wasnt one of the losers giving up during our tough August stretch. Except for the certain players that I said I liked, I root for the team, not the individual players. Thats why when guys like Maggs and PK leave, Im not going to care about them anymore. There are certain players that I would still root for, and I listed them, but other than that, the team comes first. Ill dislike any player I please.

  4. f*** you scott Podsednik!

     

    I want a real left fielder

     

    I agree. Im really starting to doubt Podsedniks value. 55 stolen bases is great but it only means anything if those SBs translate into runs. Podsednik has only scored 68 runs, which over 162 games turns into 105 runs. El Caballo could have done that. Carl Crawford and all the other bigtime base stealers have lots of runs scored. And some of those guys actually manage to have atleast a small bit of power! Im not looking for 30 homeruns from Pods, but Crawford has 13 homers, 72 RBIs, 39 SBs and a higher BA than Pods. Chone Figgins has 6 homers, 46 RBIs and a higher BA. Pods is not as great as we make him out to be.
