Tampa has a pretty damn good pen with Soriano anchoring them. They're the best team in the AL, IMO.

 

I thought that was the twins...

Hawk is talking about this team error. Why would owners want to approve that? All it would do is lower ERAs and make pitchers more expensive.

I want to wake up and discover it is April 1st and this is all a f***ing nightmare.

And Soriano's fastball has really been down this year.

 

Only 91-92. He used to throw REALLY hard when he first came up with the M's, not unlike Sweaty Freddy.

Unless you want to see Jordan Danks, there is nothing they can do now.

 

Agreed, there's nothing they can do. I truly feel they blew this season in the offseason, and they're in such a large hole already, it's very troublesome. The Twins just seem like the type of team that's not going to go on many extended losing streaks. With Liriano throwing well, their rotation is better than that of the White Sox.

It's a nightmare alright

It woulda been nice to have some money to spend on players this offseason.

Rays are the best team, but Twins will win more due to being in a terrible division. Boston fans have to be very nervous about their chances to make the postseason with 2 superior teams in their own division.

Why, it's not like we'd spend it to outbid others for free agents? Haven't done it in over a decade, they're not likely to start now. Let PK, Jenks and AJP go, and free up some money for trades.

I'm scared we're going to have to go into full on rebuild mode. We have too many older, not so good players. Contracts have us f***ed for the next couple years too.

w sox just going through the motions and no fight at all.

PK should have stomped harder...

oops

And try to sell off Linebrink, even if they have to subsidize $2-4 million...I know, not KW's and JR's style.

 

They did it once that I can think of, with Ray Durham going to the A's for Adkins.

I'd be fine with that. I'm all for trading Buehrle this season at the deadline, in all honesty. Time to get completely rid of the leftovers from 2005 (AJP, Konerko, Jenks, Buehrle) and move on.

mercy rule

Why does consistent excellence seem to elude any organization owned and operated by Jerry Reinsdorf. It is very clear that he is a businessman first and sportsman a distant 10th. Frankly, he's not very good at either one. What a shame this great city is stuck with him and the McCaskey family. They are international embarrassments.

OK, Tampa has nine runs and counting tonight. Remember the game we scored 9 or 11 runs or something and somebody posted how the next night we wouldn't score squad and we didn't?

You wait, this will have no effect on Tampa tomorrow. They will score runs.

 

Ten losses already. What a joke. Are we turning into Baltimore?

Am I the only one who thinks Bobby Valentine on Baseball Tonight absolutely sucks? I was expecting better from him.

yeah, it's like he's checked out

KW seems to be a somewhat impatient person. How long will he hold out before doing something....anything?

His voice makes me cringe. Who would have ever guessed Chris Singleton would be light years better on TV than BV?

He said 60 games yesterday. With that said, I don't know how he could watch this team and think they have any prayer.

Back to the days where the Sox filled in the time between the Bulls/Hawks and the Bears
