Won't this game still get played? How's the radar looking?

looks like this should pass in about a half hour and after that should be clear sailing...we are gonna get this thing in

 

So why the hell are people glad with this delay? We are going to lose a battle of the bullpens, especially already down by 3 runs.

Hope of the game being cancelled?

Im under the assumption (or maybe the hope) that JD will be our DH when Thome is gone... Until then we'll just have to live with his below average defense.

 

Agreed. But if they're serious about going with Quentin every day, then he should be right and Dye in left. To me, it's just like sitting Thome against some lefties. This team is far too concerned with the feelings of some of these older guys -- make the move that makes the team better.

After seeing Floyd struggle with the Yankees due to their patience, I'm still baffled as to why we set our rotation so that Buehrle wouldn't face the Yankees.

Now showing replays of '05 playoffs, WS. I know a ton of people lament about that was ancient history and all...but damn...I still get all goose-bumped from it. Geez-us...you'd think some of these guys would watch these reels to brink back the taste. Come on rain....let's get this one in! 3-0 ain't s***...

That would be in two years, and both will have their deals up.

 

 

Yeah, I think JD will get another contract with the Sox as a DH... It would surprise me to see Thome stay longer than his contract.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Apr 24, 2008 -> 06:33 PM)
So I didn't see this play. But let me guess: did it involve JD not getting lined up properly to make the throw, stutter-stepping to get himself into position, throwing essentially flat-footed and then being off line?

 

Jeter hit a line drive to medium right that Dye made a running catch on his backhand about lower chest level and came up firing . Couldn't really set himself but a very makable play since Giambi is slow and it wasn't hit at all deep.

Rain out would be fine by me.

Because they have a series of left-handed hitters who Buehrle would be effective against.

 

:unsure:

I think there is a little problem with MB's shoulder. They've been skipping him using the "keep his innings down" excuse. And I've noticed he lowers his arm angle a bit which is common with shoulder impairments. I don't know if it's serious but I wouldn't be surprised if we hear more about it this year.

And I'm back.. damn, the Yankees have three legit Cy Young contenders.. Cy Hughes!

Good observation, and I totally agree that there's something not right about the whole situation.

We flat out suck right now.

For the sake of everything holy, I hope you're wrong.

:P

They had what looked like a goblin give out the pick 3 numbers. That was more important to Cub TV than showing the sox come out.

Ramirez is 3 for 22 this year, and Greg Walker says his timing has been bad. When you have an idiot like that in charge of your hitting, no wonder you underachieve.

Hughes was taken out, Ohlendorf in.

 

 

Guessing Floyd might be done too?

can we go for 4 Cy youngs in a 3 game series? Make Ordonoghoff look like one to
