I guess I just have extreme southwest Michigan covered :dips*** He nailed you! Michigander, my ass! :finger :finger :finger :dips***

I gotcha. It didn't make as much sense out of context, I guess. And BTW, I agree with you, the "lucky" hit is an artform of good hitters. You don't see bad hitters getting those kind of hits. The best example of it, once again, is Frank during the 90's. He had so many bad swing and check swing ducksnorts over the first basemans head it was sick.

Who are you talking to Bmr?

The only person it depends on is Miguel Olivo. If Olivo is healthy, Jaime Burke gets sent back to AAA. If not, Olivo goes on the DL and Cotts comes up anyway.

I guess I am just more cultured than you then. I speak Bridgeport, Hoosier, and Michigander and can assymilate into any of their strange cultures

See if you work it the right way, it is almost like having 3 citizenships to most peoples 1! Take some notes, you could learn something

Welcome in from an almost Michigander...

Welcome in, I guess with Wayne Tolletson, this makes two ghost members?

Mike, you didn't have to leave that last part in. I fixed it for you, though. That's all right, it won't last long...

I get the feeling that Pena will end up being like Larry Bowa where he might get the attention of a team at first, but I bet it wears off in a year or two..

It hasn't be announced "officially" yet. His teammate Jim Bullard, announced to everyone that Cotts has been put on a plane to Anaheim. The move will be announced sometime on Tuesday morning or Monday night after the game.

Hey! I had to buy all night! and you're still whining about it

Wow, I joined at the end of April and was #298, and we have now hit #1000! WTG Soxtalk!

Shh, don't admit that "friend" part out loud...

My best friend is a web host so I have met and been out to dinner with Phoenix Coyote brawler Darcy Hordichuck. Cool Guy. He also is designing a site for Jeff Zimmerman the relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers. One of the people I ride the train to work with has a nephew who just got called up by the Detroit Tigers, poor kid. Eric Eckenstahler is his name and he is a LHP out the pen. I also used to go to a ton of Ft Wayne Komets games so I met just about every player that went through there in about a 6 or so year span. Some of the guys are in the NHL now such as Andre Roy, Eric Bogenecki, and Kevin Weekes. Plus I met lots of the opposing players such as Marty Turco and Patrick Stefan.

Sorry dude, its the weekend. Too nice of a weekend to be camping in front of the computer!

New York fans will eat Colon for lunch, much the same way that Colon has eaten so many lunches before...

Welcome to Soxtalk!

It is on NOW. So far very hilarious. "In the last ten years Dennis Leary has made more bombs than Hamas!"

Damn I wish I could have been there. I will be there the last home game against KC, other than that, I need to get some bills paid and get out to the ballpark!

If the crowd size is what makes an event, how come you aren't a Cubs fan? Yeah, it is the product on the field that matters, not the amount of lemmings who take it in.
