QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 25, 2007 -> 09:09 PM) He likes you. It's nothing personal. I like the way he plays. He's one of the few that hustles. But I really don't like him. Seems like a good guy, though.

You know, I really don't like Mackowiak

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 09:05 PM) What type of idiot, be it Ozzie or AJ or Buehrle, calls for that there? It's over with. We'll never know who it was. I'd guess AJ. QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 25, 2007 -> 09:05 PM) Then he has way too good of control to hang that change to Dukes. I don't think that was intentional, and I have no problem with Buehrle staying in with two outs. Come on team!

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 09:03 PM) If that was Buehrle or AJ's call, then that's even dumber. There's no doubt in my mind it was intentional. Doubt it was Ozzie's.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ May 25, 2007 -> 09:01 PM) Ozzie never leaves pitchers in too long (see almost every loss). GMAB

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 09:01 PM) Seriously, who in their right f***ing mind hits a guy to put the tying run up to the plate? I doubt that was Ozzie's call. He understands that Dukes is a good hitter, I'm sure, and he doesn't like to walk people to bring the tying run up, let alone hit someone to bring it up. I think you're overreacting.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:59 PM) Unbelievable....nice that we left in Buehrle one hitter too long. Hitting Harris was definitley intentional. f*** you Ozzie!

You jinxed it, Heads.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:56 PM) Now you understand my issue with Brian Anderson, Jack Egbert and Andre Ethier. Well, Erstad's a world champion and a gold glover in addition to a pretty boy. I imagine he won a Silver Slugger for his two thousand season, too. But even without that, he's fabulous. -- Holy s***, we f***ing hit the wrong guy!

I am no longer capable of commenting on Darin Erstad objectively. I have fallen in love, see?

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:51 PM) Rumor has it Iraq moved to WMDs to Dukes' basement with his help. That sentence cracks me up. Makes me think of Iraq as a person.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:43 PM) No reason to reliate to that yet. Gives us every reason to pop Dukes. Actually, the gossip has always been that Lex Luger killed Ms. Elizabeth, his wife, and that was the police assumption at first but they couldn't prove prove it. It's because of that that the WWE can't bring in Sting, ever, because he insists on them signing Luger, too, and they won't do it because they too believe he killed Ms. Elizabeth plus he has drug problems

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:24 PM) 0 for last 21 for Iguchi....might want to get him away from batting before Thome. The sad thing is I was away from the computer cause my fiancee had to go on theknot.com Did you threaten to kill her when you found out that your favorite player had hit a bomb? Elijah Dukes will henceforth be known as Lex Luger

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:18 PM) The way he looked yesterday for Trenton, he won't survive a month in the AL. He was struggling to throw 88-91. As long as Luis is hitting, we'll be fine!!

Brian Anderson would've hit the fundamentals deck Oh, and hey guys. Clemens' first start will be against us

Great AB by Uribe

Konerko for CF anyone?

I'll bet if we did have a brawl Erstad would be the first one there. Hustle, baby! Or how about Dukes charges Buehrle and Ozzie comes out raising hell? Or Brian Anderson runs up from Charlotte and everyone says, "What?!" and he says, "Gotta show everyone I can hit!" Seriously, though. I doubt Dukes charges or does much of anything if he gets plunked. I think the upside to plunking him is greater than the downside.

Buehrle isn't a woman. None of our players are. Nor are they scared minor leaguers. I hope he gets hit and charges the mound and gets cut off by... GRINDERSTAD

QUOTE(fathom @ May 25, 2007 -> 06:00 PM) I hope Ozzie doesn't try to be the patroller of baseball and decide to plunk him like he did Delmon Young last year. Why not?

I'm a grinder. My left knee grinds against itself all day long.

That kid looks like he hasn't hit puberty yet. What the hell is he doing with such a powerful weapon? I hope it's real. I wouldn't be surprised either way.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 25, 2007 -> 04:27 PM) Danks looks like a guy who wouldn't be afraid to hit a guy. I think all of our starters are guys who'll drill someone, although I'm not sure about Contreras (I'm guessing he would) and I know that Garland didn't hit the Rangers last year.

I'm very disappointed that some of my favorite posters aren't going. Still, other favorites are going. Let's go out there and have a ballgame!
