NJ is 30-1 when leading after two. That is amazing.

Wow, they look like they have jet lag out there or something... This is an awful first period.

If you talk about someone who deserves a statue at the ballpark, Nancy is it.

So when do they come out with the XL maxIpad?

I love Opening Day more than anything else. The anticipation after a long winter, the optimism of being 0-0, the questions of who will step up... Its the most wonderful time of the year!

QUOTE (gatnom @ Apr 2, 2010 -> 04:31 PM) Will it keep Jones healthy, though? You ride him until he is not, and then you hope you either have someone ready in the minors, or the trade routes are open.

QUOTE (MattZakrowski @ Apr 2, 2010 -> 10:56 AM) Like booing most likely. You mean the 500 that still go to games?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 2, 2010 -> 04:50 AM) And they've lost Sabathia and Lee too. Atleast they have LeBron! For now...

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Apr 2, 2010 -> 09:09 AM) That's a really great rotation. It should be fun year in AAA this year. I also look forward to seeing what Ever strings together for the Barons. He has a lot less talent going into this year, then he did the last. Should be some decent competition for some guys trying to stay relevant, such as Marquez and Torres.

I am, but then again I have been off for a while now...

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Apr 2, 2010 -> 12:10 AM) San Quentin is a prison in California that contains all of their Death Row inmates. That is actually a pretty good one, as he shows about as much emotion as a death row inmate...

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 2, 2010 -> 07:04 AM) Its amazing how much more solid a baseball writer becomes when they count the White Sox as one of the best. I've read for years on this board that Rosenthal was an idiot. I like Rosenthal's columns, but am concerned about his prediction. It appears his pre-season picks haven't been on the money. It is more my experience that the people who don't like him just aren't saying anything. I seriously doubt any one person's opinion flipped of Rosenthal based on this one article.

ladies and gentleman, yet another victim of eight year amnesia, Paul Krugman or not... http://newsbusters.org/blogs/ken-shepherd/...t-map-elections

QUOTE (Dizzy Sox @ Apr 1, 2010 -> 08:31 PM) The article gets even better...it talks about how Josh Fields is hurt and might start the season on the DL, and that Wilson Betemit may open as KC's regular 3rd baseman with Gordon out. Yikes. So about my predictions that the Royals won't finish in last place, is it too late to take that back?

QUOTE (mmmmmbeeer @ Apr 1, 2010 -> 03:58 PM) Yeah, I was referring to Jurassic. He was a vocal leader....he wanted to win and he didn't mind being the jerk who called folks out. I think we've missed that component in the clubhouse since he left (based on reports, obviously). Peavy seems to have some of the same qualities and I think it'll be good for the team. One of the first things that crossed my mind last year after watching him pitch his first game in a Sox uni was the influence he will have on Gavin Floyd. To this day, even with his great improvements over the last couple of seasons, Gavin looks scared and timid on the mound. I think Jake will teach him to show more confidence, and when you feel confident you get better results. I don't care what he looks like, he pitches like he owns the place.

That's pretty funny. If you can't hit em, pitch em.
