Vlad is a DH, so no... You almost need Barry Bonds numbers if you want to win the MVP as a DH. Look what happened to Ortiz in 2006.

YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE BOARD, YESSSS, YESSSS! Mercy!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:49 PM) Didn't matter at the time, but ump screwed Pena on the 2-2 pitch to Guillen. The check swing? Yeah...

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:48 PM) I agree, it didn't cost us the game. It just made it more difficult to comeback all the way to tie/take the lead. The usual issues were present again for the Sox...underachieving starting pitching, poor clutch hitting, NO power from anyone besides 3/4/5 What are you talking about? Brent Lillibridge and Omar Vizquel were the only guys who had extra base hits...

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:41 PM) Yeah, you reallystepped out on a f***ing limb there It definitely required a lot of thinking. More thinking than Ozzie used when he brought in Randy Williams.

lol, I was right, we lose 7-6.

It's up to Dayan.

lmao, that got me excited.

Linebrink struck someone out?

QUOTE (noodle_53 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:34 PM) Maybe he's learned. Trust me, most Royals fans are thrilled with Yost and would love to keep him past this year. Hmmm...seems a bit weird. He was terrible in Milwaukee.

This gun isn't wrong. GameDay is saying he's throwing 97-98.

QUOTE (noodle_53 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:31 PM) You're welcome for that pointless bunt. How bad is Yost in comparison to Ozzie?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 09:30 PM) Liney hits 97. He can't throw anything else for a strike though.

Linebrink's literally a one pitch pitcher right now. He can't put hitters away without a secondary pitch.

Ozzie doesn't think we can win.

We're probably going to lose this game by 1.

This is hilarious.

What the hell?!?!

WHAT IS THIS?!?!

WTF...?

More proof that Ozzie can't manage a bullpen.

^The problem is, Jones has been so damn bad recently that Kotsay's actually a better option right now. Down the road, Jones is probably a better choice, because he's most likely going to start hitting better.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jun 30, 2010 -> 06:32 PM) K.C. Johnson - "And with the local product currently making Chicago his free-agent recruiting base, league sources told the Tribune the Bulls are finalizing details on a Thursday meeting with Wade at the United Center." This is too crazy.

Kotsay runs like Paul Konerko from what I've seen.
