It was like that BS in 2005 when Shapiro won Executive of the Year over KW.

 

How can you pick the 2nd place team there that didn't even make the playoffs and collapsed the final week?

 

Yeah, that was bad. I'm sure by the time the World Series started, a lot of those votes would have changed to Kenny. But whatever. He's still rich for 2 playoff teams in 12 years.

Ugh, Andrew Bailey

Nice swing Alexei

Cincy over STL is putting the Dodgers back in play...but they need 2 wins and 2 Cardinals losses.

 

Would be a crazy ending for the Cardinals after last season's charge, but the Dodgers haven't shown themselves capable of sustaining anything since the first 2 months of the year.

Another ex-Royal strikes again, lol.

 

Bailey for Reddick one of the worst offseason moves in recent years.

Yankees tied it.

I really wanted Yankees/Rangers on Friday too.

That's the furthest Gimenez has ever hit a ball.

 

He makes Corky Miller look like Ichiro. Great defender, though.

No it's not but obviously he proved he isn't worth what the Weavers and the Verlanders are making these days.

 

When he put up those numbers, he was well worth it. Thus is the risk of long term deals for pitchers.

an extra inning game...exactly what everyone wanted

I have to think the Sox have gotten at least a year's salary in insurance on Peavy's contract

Swisher might be a hero here...ugh.

 

edit: Arod...same thing

Just saw the Dayan shot from earlier....dear lord was that thing spanked

Jake Peavy is a great competitor. True we haven't see great results but this year he came back strong. I would like to see him next year one more year removed from that surgery

First base ump must have money on us.

Jake Peavy is a great competitor.

 

Cliche, cliche, cliche. What makes a pitcher a great competitor? Cause they act mad when they get taken out of a game? It's funny cause if you asked me who showed the most guts of any of the Sox starters this year, it might have been Gavin returning from his elbow issues without any rehab when he knows a major injury would kill him financially after this year.

I am sorry but if you can't see it I don't think my explaining it will do any good. People have their own opinions on Peavy and others on this teeam and that's fine but Jake gives his all.

Fair enough, but which pitchers on the Sox do you think don't give their all?

 

Elrockin, I'm not saying you're wrong in your opinion at all.

Cano up, bases loaded, 2 outs, tie game.

Why is Ray Olmedo playing a game professionally that he is terrible at?

It's a wonder

Insult to injury, royals winning

Why is Ray Olmedo playing a game professionally that he is terrible at?

 

Cause Kenny made a terrible blunder believing he could back-up Alexei at SS and Youk at 3B.

Bos-NY...to the 10th

Amazingly he got to bat second in a game in a pennant race.
