September 10, 200322 yr I watched the JM press conference on ESPNEWS, and JM said they were "defenilty going to have to talk." You knew he whouldnt be around for more than a few days. yes, this isnt a surprise, or news.
September 10, 200322 yr I watched the JM press conference on ESPNEWS, and JM said they were "defenilty going to have to talk." You knew he whouldnt be around for more than a few days. Yeah when Jerry doesn't automatically say something good about you, you know you are f***ed. Good riddance to a bad experiment!
September 10, 200322 yr After last night I was sure I never wanted to see him pitch for the Sox again. After settleing down some over the last several hours, I feel exactly the same way. Glad he's gone, and I'll never figure out what beef he thought he had with the ump when he just flat out sucked.
September 10, 200322 yr I said in other posts that I didn't know why the guy was up with the team since he performed below expectations at Charlotte. Any idea if someone from the minors might get a call? Doesn't speak well for the Sox system when teams are bringing up these so called phenoms and we don't have anybody to help in the sytem, or at least that is ready to perform.
September 10, 200322 yr Yeah, he can't pitch anymore. It's a shame, he would have been a nice addition if he could pitch. Oh well, this is good. I just can't believe he gave that ump the finger, in his FIRST Sox appearance. Talk about showing some class
September 10, 200322 yr Good move. Now when is the press release where KW slapped teh s*** out of JM for leaving his worthless ass in there so long? That was too damn close last night for teh way the game went .
September 10, 200322 yr Now when we have a big lead, and we need to give the bullpen a rest.... STOP!!!! BILLY TIME!!!!!!
September 10, 200322 yr Now when we have a big lead, and we need to give the bullpen a rest.... STOP!!!! BILLY TIME!!!!!! Dittowned.
September 10, 200322 yr ripped them last night for leaving him in and putting team in a hole praise them now for doing the right thing Thank goodness he is outta here.
September 10, 200322 yr Now when we have a big lead, and we need to give the bullpen a rest.... STOP!!!! BILLY TIME!!!!!! I agree, if we have more than a 5 run lead. He gives up ONE run, Hook Him. He didn't have a lot of 1-2-3 innings with Oakland last year. He gives up a hit or two, let it play out, if a run scores on a Sacrifice ANything, keep him in, but if they get one more hit after that, hook him.
September 10, 200322 yr I thought he had good stuff and showed some fire. He showed some fire alright and it burned him big time! :fyou I believe that was his parting flame?
September 10, 200322 yr Good move. Now when is the press release where KW slapped teh s*** out of JM for leaving his worthless ass in there so long? That was too damn close last night for teh way the game went . Ohhh, BOO HOO HOO, Maury, you Jerrybasher, you!!! Damn, I was just gonna go get my Joey Bread-and-Water jersey!!!! Good riddance to bad rubbish!!! Oh, and Joey, on your way out...... :fyou to you too...
September 10, 200322 yr Just heard on ESPN 1000. I think this sends the right message to the team. WAY TO GO KENNY WILLIAMS & JM!!!!! This teams management earns more respect with each passing day!
September 10, 200322 yr I was looking for a post from "everyone's favorite old man" saying at least the guy was trying, unlike the tub of goo who pitched a complete game. I really like the intensity he shows. I think he could have really lit up this team Do you think his agent accepted his collect call this afternoon?
September 10, 200322 yr I told you back when they signed him, they should have spent the money they gave him on another fireworks show. It amazed me they let him pitch last night, but at least they have the sense to pull the plug before JM had another chance to see what he could do.
September 10, 200322 yr Now when we have a big lead, and we need to give the bullpen a rest.... STOP!!!! BILLY TIME!!!!!! I agree, if we have more than a 5 run lead. He gives up ONE run, Hook Him. He didn't have a lot of 1-2-3 innings with Oakland last year. He gives up a hit or two, let it play out, if a run scores on a Sacrifice ANything, keep him in, but if they get one more hit after that, hook him. I think its important for Billy to get some playing time, but the guy needs to be on a VERY short leash. It seems to me the Sox have been a better team when Koch wasn't in a position to pitch. While having him be effective would be a huge boost to the bullpen, the odds against that are staggering. He, like Paniagua, struggled at Charlotte. His velocity was the same as it was prior to his injury. I don't think 5 runs is enough. The Sox would have to have a 6 run lead, like last night, and 3 baserunners is the best I would give him, unless the first 2 men got on. Then he would be yanked. I give him a little more slack then I would Paniagua, Paniagua had no reason to be on the team, and there was no reason to think he would be effective.
September 10, 200322 yr I only have one question: Do we have official confirmation that Paniagua is really going, going, gone? Just want to make certain he is NOT on that plane to Boston tomorrow night.
September 10, 200322 yr I'm glad they released him, because I was almost certain that he is a Twins fan.
