If Reed stays this hot into spring training next season, he should be with the Sox next season. I'd bet he'd be in AAA right now if it wasn't so late in the season that it would be pointless. He is clearly too good for AA. I'd like to see him in September, but that won't happen. Good to see Honel and Rauch get good outings in. I've been disappointed with both this season, more so with Honel.

It's still 7:30 in Chicago. Don't use Eastern time in a Chicago forum.

Duh. It doesn't take an idiot to figure this one out.

Yeah, he's made a bunch of these signings. I think that credit goes to our scouts though.

He had an ERA of 5.83 last season in Detroit.

I agree that this team doesn't look like a team that can win in the playoffs, but all they have to do is get there and it doesn't matter. It's a fresh start once you are there. I guess I've just become immune to the pen making it "interesting" so I don't think of it how I used to.

It's the kind of deal we need. We need an extra pitcher. You can always use more pitching though.

Relax. A win is a win. We gained a game on the Royals. You sound like that KC writer that tried to make light of the sweep by saying KC showed heart by getting an infield single. We beat KC and gained a game, that's all that matters.

Does it really matter? This is what the Sox do. They make it "interesting".

Oh and here's the link: Chat Room

C'mon people join the chat! For you out of towners I'll do play by play. I'm lonely in there, lol.

All your pessimism and they are going to win a playoff series?

Yeah. I doubt that there were many Royals fans last year. It's tough to like a losing team.

My preseason pick was 84-78. I could see them getting more than that. 87 wins could win the division...

It's funny because it's true. To be honest though, there haven't been many Royals trolls. There were more Twins trolls over the last couple years.

Good one.

Oh right you said you needed a life. I guess you don't have one yet.

Agreed, but he wouldn't have caught it. There is no point to it. As I said about Carlos going for it and costing him. Everett is a smart player and he hustles. Don't question that about him.

Heh. I thought you were going to post less? Now you are responding to every new post.

Why are you complaining then? By your logic it didn't matter. So if you were the CFer you would have done the same thing.

Exactly. Most umpires realize that a player wouldn't get hit intentionally in a certain situation. He doesn't realize that.

He wasn't going to get the ball. It's better to do that than what Carlos would do. He would run up dive for it and let it get by him and cost a base.

Sure you can. I remember a specific SNL bit where they had a blind black guy that was racist against blacks and he never knew he was black. It was very comical, just like you can be....

Yes, you do.

I don't know if it was yesterday or a few days ago, but I remember hearing BBTN complaining about him. I think it was the same guy.
