September 8, 201114 yr in the most disappointing team of the year poll... Somehow we still can't beat the Twins http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2011/09/poll..._medium=twitter
September 8, 201114 yr How could the Twins have had any hype? They lost their entire bullpen, Morneau is ruined, Mauer is hurt. Stupid
September 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 12:45 PM) This team has been a big pile of #2 all season long.
September 8, 201114 yr You know what would be fun, to go back and find all the pre-season predictions to see where everybody had us.

I had us as a complete team, built to take on the Red Sox in the ALCS, because we had the makings of a dynamite rotation, a good offense (ha!) and bullpen, whereas Boston just had the holy-f***-offense. The worst part? Had any of Morel, Beckham, Rios, or (especially) Dunn performed not abysmally with the bat, we'd be right there, ready to take on the BoSox or Yankees.

September 8, 201114 yr I've probably seen more "expert" predictions rarely pick the Sox to win the division. Edited September 8, 201114 yr by kitekrazy
September 8, 201114 yr QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 8, 2011 -> 03:10 PM) http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=80845 You were cutting it kind of close here... Not a prediction. But I want to let all of Soxtalk know that if Thornton sports a better K-rate, WHIP, FIP, save% and saves overall than Soria I will get the Bieber tattoo. And to make it more interesting, he only has to trump Soria in 3 of those 5 categories for me to get the tat. J4L keeps his word. So save this post. Put it in your sigs or whatever. I'm fairly positive (without looking) that Thornton does have a better K-rate, WHIP, and FIP. And IMO, those are the only stats of the 5 that actually showcases talent.

September 8, 201114 yr lol. Get outta here. Why would I throw saves/save% in there as two of the categories (I have no idea why I said save%, as that stat sucks) if I didn't mean as the closer? Edited September 8, 201114 yr by Jordan4life

September 9, 201114 yr QUOTE (MattZakrowski @ Mar 22, 2011 -> 02:03 PM) The Sox will get down on Fridays, winning at a better than .750 clip to start weekends. Fun fun fun. This prediction is dated and wrong!
