Houston has Brad Lidge to be closer now, who has been better than Dotel this year Houston is getting better from this deal by far... And now I get to go watch Beltran play

Alright Jon, way to get out of that

Rauch needs to get out of this with no runs allowed, i think if he does we are in for a good day

Rauch coming out strong

So? That doesnt mean PK Would have homered with a man on and 2 outs because he led the next inning off fresh with a HR YOu dont know what would have happened... so lets move on and not worry about it we have MORE games to play!

because it HAPPENS im not gonna jump all over them for it, yeah they made fools of themselves... but Frank and Carlos are both batting .290 + and have been huge for this team this year If they werent doing good this year then i wouldnt see any reason for them to be thinking that, but they have been huge for this team this year and havent been making stupid ass mistakes on a nightly basis

Dude what does it matter? Carlos knocked in Frank and we got the RBI That doesnt change the final score... we play tomorrow, why worry about what happened last night... it will only ruin your focus

Yeah... Did you ever think that maybe Carlos saw Frank do it, and then when Carlos hit it he would try to think "Now thats how its done" eh...... nevermind... I am going nowhere with this We lost, lets go out there tomorrow and make up for it.. Im sure Carlos and Frank both know not to assume they got one again

No I wasnt trying to say it was alright... But how is Frank Hitting a Double and then Carlos following with knocking him in make them look like douchebags? NOW, if Frank would have gotten thrown out and Carlos too and we got nothing out of it then yes, they are Douchebags... But since we got something out of it I would rather classify it as them making an ass of themselves, or just not hustling

I guess I must be the only here who was a power hitter... All I know is there are time thats you make contact that you know its gone, and others that you have to question... He thought it was gone, it didnt happen... Did he get an RBI? Yes Did it matter? NO because pitching blew it anyways Im not trying to say its alright to do that, Im just saying that it HAPPENS and I know from experiance and no I never stood at home plate and admired it but I have half assed it out of the box due to the fact I thought it was gone.... Get off power hitters nuts man... it HAPPENS!!!

Thats gross........ and yet I want to sit on it

Well I dont care how Carlos plays, im glad hes on my team well, if he became like full out lazy and no hustle then i would care... but admiring what he thought was a HR... it happens to the best of them... hell Frank did it too right before him

Well yeah everyone goes nuts when they hit their first HR but when you know your a power hitter and you have hit many HR's... When you think you got one its just like "Damn, that looks pretty" Its like something you do without thinking... like blinking or breathing

You hit a HR and sprinted around the bases??? That may be taking it a little far, but the feeling you get when you think you got all of it... its a great feeling, and I know how it feels so I cant blame Carlos for that again... pitching gave this game away so this point is useless

If you hate this team then get off the boards because I dont wanna hear your negative s*** when theres more than HALF a season still to go and we are two games back get the f*** outta here I can guarantee you that no one else wants to hear that s*** either... so if you hate this team, go tell it to someone else cause your in the wrong place to be talking s*** about the Sox

our team Sucking? Were not out of anything Yes improvments are needed but you cant win them all, just relax we will add the pieces

Have any of you ever hit a game tying or winning HR?? Because I know when I did it I also felt like admiring it, its just something that happens.. When you tag a ball and you FEEL like its gone your not thinking the same, he just missed it and now he looks like an ass for it.. But I wouldnt blame it on him, it happens.... Doesnt change the fact that MB loaded the bases and The King of Pop gave up the slam Oh well move on to tomorrow, and hope for the split

15 - 18 wins a year is pretty close to being a great pitcher I think he will be a decent pitcher at the end of our rotation next year and I would be very pleased with 10 - 12 wins since we dont always have to go with the 5th starter and they dont get as many starts as the top of the line guys we have goin

our O needs to pick it up

why would you want to go to a Sox game and keep an opposing hitters HR?? I know I would throw that b**** back out on the field because I dont wanna go home and be like "Oh look mom I caught Ron Belliards HR!!!" f*** that...

Man I hate Belliard its ok we always score a lot of runs for MB

MB is pitching well tonight.... just gotta score some more runs for him and make this one a lock

ah dammit

good point

Rowand is .400 vs Lefties... im gonna be dissapoitned if he leaves them
