I take it Morton is a pretty big high school (or it would be in Iowa). f***in Indianans.

QUOTE(Dam8610 @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 11:10 PM) Ugh. 36. Not a good age for a big contributor to a team with championship aspirations. Those 36 homers on his birthday really did in the team this year.

THREE DAYS

Damn, Ricks up to .318

We don't. I'll get on Jason about it, or I'll release the list myself.

QUOTE(RX Bandits @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 09:37 PM) haha sorry i suck at the internet. reading this again i thought maybe it was but i wasnt in that great of a mood...therefore by bulls*** tollorance just isnt as high Always read any thread created that late with a grain of salt.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 08:48 PM) quite possibly the best guilty pleasure song ever. and i have alot of them. I've heard you sing the Muppets theme song in your sleep.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 09:18 PM) What if I say Geoff Blum? My point is.........fairweather fans will almost always says Jim Thome cause he's the new big bopper and every one knows him. Anyone that followed this team in and before 2005 has witnessed the magic that is Crede. And most will say Crede. I don't hate fairweather fans. They get us free agents and create more of a demand for the Sox, which is always good.

QUOTE(fullcollapse @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 09:00 PM) to be perfectly honest, and i'm not talking to anyone here specifically, but if you are only a sox fan cause they won the series, and are just going to bail if they don't win again this year... i didn't want you here anyway. I want their money. Simplest question to ask a Sox fan to see if they are serious or not....who do you want up in the clutch? Jim Thome or Joe Crede. Their answer to that question pretty much determines it for me.

The suckification of this site has gone up if people can't take a tounge in cheek thread.

QUOTE(KFran @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 01:49 PM) Tyner may suck but he threw out one of YOUR boys sliding into home. How do you like them apples? People say stuff like that when they are worried. Are you worried? He wasn't good enough for the Devil Rays. Funny you're not here now.

Abso-f***ing-lutely beautiful.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:05 PM) Damn this mlb.tv music. Although I could go for a pina colada. I hear that music and I keep waiting for Sanford and Son to break out. Listen to it again and you'll understand.

Nice job Mark. Nice to see someone besides Jon f***ing manning up.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:02 PM) I'm pretty sure that we should stop saying "I'm pretty sure". I couldn't agree with you more on the defense statement. When your pitching is struggling, you have to go put your best defense on the field (especially considering that our best defense also contains our best offensive players right now). Are you sure?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 02:52 PM) I'm pretty sure you should know my posting style enough to know that I don't use green for sarcasm. We face a lefty on Tuesday, so Anderson better be in CF. I'm pretty sure you knew I was giving you crap because we have a manager that preaches defense, but it only seems to count at certain times.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 02:46 PM) When you have non-strikeout pitchers, defense is overrated. I'm pretty sure you only meant that last part.

Rolling.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 02:44 PM) At this point, it's only one game. Right now I'm just thinking "fluke." I've seen this game before: Vazquez @ Toronto and Jose vs. Detroit a couple of weeks back. I agree, he needs to do it again, but he has to start somewhere. It's nice it's against the Twins. It's also great that we have our best D out there to prevent unearned runs.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 02:42 PM) More pitching from Mark would be nice. The real question though, is whether Mark has actually improved or is this a one time deal? If he has in fact turned something around (AJ catching him again), it's absolutely huge, cause then we have two legit starters.

I'm a heck of a lot happier about the way Mark is pitching today. The hitting is gravy.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 02:37 PM) Thank God Brian barely gets to play. He is such a liabilty at the plate these days. Horrible baserunner too, as well as lackluster range on D. Good thing he'll sit for the next game.

BA now over .230.

:uhoh JUANNY

If we could juice another two innings out of Mark, it'd be awesome.
