Best show, hands down. The list of people who could sue them was priceless tonight.

So does Frank bounce a baseball off his bat like a paddleball and then hit it in the stands in his free time?

Comments?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but today is June 26 and not October 3, right? Just checking.

Glaus from what I've heard is somewhat of a prima donna. And apparently Angels management was furious with him when he decided to rehab his shoulder during the offseason instead of just having the surgery for it, since ultimately he needed it. I believe this is his walk year and the Angels are supposed to be high on some kid named Dallas McPherson so they'll let him walk. Can't disagree with the other names you have on there. Rolen is the best of the bunch though by far.

Seeing how last year's trades cost the Sox considerable prospects in the farm system (Rupe, Francisco, Ring & Webster especially), maybe KW is being cautious this time around with who he possibly gives up for that 5th starter or extra arm for the bullpen. Honestly, I can't blame him. Especially if they're unable to sign these guys long-term because they don't have intentions of staying or that they're agents are in their ear telling them to do something else. Ultimately, last year's deals, while great during the season to help this team out, still didn't result in a division title and all the acquisitions left elsewhere for more money or to start completely anew. The Sox were left holding the bag and absolutely nothing to show for it. You have to give up something in order to get something, but to give up the farm again for someone who may/may not stay will wind up putting the Sox right back where they started. I know KW has said nobody is "untouchable", but with the farm system being put back in place, I hope it's not as quickly depleted again.

Are you serious?

They did when they brought in Robert Person, but he blew out his arm before the start of ST.

I truly respect the fact that he was hitting 40+ homers yearly when the ball (and players) wasn't juiced. His 500 are completely legit. I look forward to the day when Frank can join him in that group.

Congrats, Junior.

So when Uribe made it an 11-6 game, it was okay for Politte to give those 3 runs back and make it a 14-6 game? Or after the 3 runs driven in by Uribe again in the 6th to make it 14-9, it was okay for Jackson to give one of them back? Or when the Sox got it to 15-14, it was okay for Cotts to give up the 2 run shot to make it 17-14? Yep, you're right. It was all Munoz's fault tonight. :headshake

So because of one bad start, you've given up on Munoz? Like Ozzie said, "Wow".

And if Rowand isn't playing Vidro shallow with 2 outs in the 3rd, it's probably still a 3-1 game. That 2 run double clearly unnerved Munoz and helped result in that huge inning. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Diaz supporter. I just think telling Munoz that's it could damage his confidence. He needs another shot to prove he can get the job done. If he can't, then go to Diaz.

Just like Diaz got 2 chances to prove himself, Munoz deserves the same shot. If he struggles like that again, then look at Diaz or elsewhere. But Munoz should be given another chance.

***In best Chris Berman voice*** And the Montreal Alouettes of the old CFL defeat the Chicago Bears 17-14 in an NFL-CFL matchup.

The first one after the ASG where the Sox were down 10-0 and just came up short 10-9. The Sox went on a tear afterwards. This game could be the springboard for this year. At least I hope it can be.

CLee 0-6. :headshake

CLee, Paulie, & Jose all with chances to help break the game open and nada. :headshake At least the other guys have come through and Paulie did get the scoring started.

15-13!

I was thinking the same thing.

I know Munoz got knocked around tonight, but the 'pen's gotta help him out a little bit. The offense is trying to get them back in it, but it does no good if the Sox cut the deficit just to let the pen give it back. Come on you two, get in the damn game and focus!

This was his 1st year as a starter. I think he deserves at least one more start before we shuffle him to the pen.

It's now 14-9. And the Brewers now lead the Twinkies 6-5!

Barring a trade for a 5th starter, he makes his next start when the 5th slot comes up.

Is it just me, or does Hawk & DJ seem a bit relaxed in the booth tonight?
