Ok KC will win easily they are in the ninth with a 5-1 lead and runners on Cleveland Rallying in the 9th inning. first and second no body out. 2-1 Minni.

a little luck for Olivo, I will take it

Woops sorry yep your right

Ok no more flubs KC -5-1 Bottom 8 Minni still leads 2-1 Bottom 8

Konerko can't get out of the slump with the bat on his shoulder.

C- LEE - YEs a nice slam

No problem; Scrubs 3- 2 over astros KC 5-1 in 8th this one is over really Minni Still up 2-1 in the 8th Cards 0-0 in Pitt- 4th inning

5-1 KC in the 8th 2-1 Minni in the 7th.

1-0 Tampa

Our bats better be ready, KC will win today and Minni will probably as well.

5-1 KC in the 7th- Berroa HR. Minni up 2-1

KC up 4-1 Witt with an HR off of Lowe in the 6th. Als0 Minni up 2-1 in the 7th.

4-0 KC bottom 6. KC in full control.

as I mentioned in other threads I think Dan Wright will be called back up in a week. I also think we will get another relief pitcher via trade.

3-0 KC in the Sixth, Sean Lowe will pitch the sixth for KC in releif of Lima.

3-0 KC in the fifth. detriot had runners on first and third with nobody out and couldn't score. Sound familiar? KC is having no problem right now.

3-0 KC bottom of fourth

KC up 2-0 in 4th. They are rallying and will add more

No problem guys, I just don't think that sending Porzio down indicates a trade. Danny wright would be considered a 5th starter on most teams. he will probably be called back up. Hey I would love ponson for konerko. I don't like Konerko anyway. But I don't think Balt would do that. Seattle won't either. Personally I think Seattle would be better trading Garica to KC for Randa. Both are in final years and Seattle needs a 3b with Power. KC would get a veteran pitcher. anyway. KC 1-0 in the 3rd.

HMMM, Ok We'll just dissagree for now, we will know within a week. I just think it means we blew out the bullpen last week, we don't need a fifth starter for a week, and we will go with an extra releiver until we need a fifth starter. Ginter will ptich today if colon doesn't go all the way, that leaves Gordon and marte fresh for KC. In a week Ginter will be sent down for the fifth starter. If there is a trade it will be for bullpen help. We will see in a week. PS KC up 1-0 in the 3rd

Wow, I can't believe we are even discussing this. first the Mariners are not going to take Konerko and 6.5 million. They have no payroll room and they already have a first baseman and a DH. So Konerko is out. As for LEE, you want to take away our top RBI guy out of the lineup to get a pitcher who is three months away from free agency and won't resign with the Sox next year. I have lots of friends in seattle and they want to rid themselves of Garcia big time. He has major issues this year. I am not against getting him to pitch as a number 5 but we have only 5 more starts or so with the number 5 this year. Since the last two deals were not adding payroll what makes you think we will add payroll here? Pay LEE's contract and garcia's? doesn't sound something like the Sox would do. I realize this may not be popular but we need more bullpen help not a fifth starter. if I am adding payroll and trading lee or konerko I want paul Shuey from the Dodgers. More choices in the bullpen is better than a guy that will only pitch 5 games between now and the end of the year.

why does there have to be a trade at all. As I mentioned in the game thread last night, the bullpen is overworked and we won't need a 5th pitcher for 8 days. In 8 days ginter or someone else will be dropped down and danny Wright, or Cotts or someone else will be brought up to pitch. Wright although I don't like him is the logical choice to come back up. He is clearly a number 5 guy in the majors.

the only bullpen guys worth value is marte and gordon, that would be a bad move. I don't think its any of that. I think we have 8 days to figure out who will be the next fifth starter. Then ginter will be sent down again. If porzio pitched 5 innings and gave up 2 runs this move would not have been made.

thanks for backing me up....

I don't think Glover is stretched out to be a starter, they will make another move in a week.
