Sac fly' date=' 7-4 lead. The bulpen should be able to hold this[/quote']

Don't get greedy.

Four pitch walk to lead off an inning, the sign of a reliever who will ultimately contribute nothing to the success of a team. Thank you, sir.

Wow, that was an 0-2 meatball. Luckily, Navarro can hardly hit it out of his shadow. At noon.

I see what you did there. Clever. Clever.

 

We should harp on MDC more, when he sucks, he just apparently needs to be told so.

If they are going to go for an external option' date=' it should be Bonds because 1. he's the best option, and 2. he only costs money, not talent. .[/quote']

 

No doubt - but is he worth the distraction? By that I mean not fans booing him but he may miss time because of court appearence etc.

 

Also - did he not say sometime back he never wants to play for Boston?

Any time the Rays fall behind, and they get a guy on making it look like they might score, at some point during each hitter's AB, Magrane says, "Well, let's see if [insert player name here] can [insert euphamism for hitting a HR here]". I think it would be a good ad-lib game to come up with off the wall fill in the blanks. But that's just me.

He's unlikely to go to court before this season and postseason end. And, maybe he won't play here, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't inquire to see if he's changed his mind. Being snubbed by 29 other teams might have impacted his feelings.

Argh -- not so classic Manny AB...

Depends on the year. That was a vintage 2007 result (and would have been his 3rd of the night if Bartlett hadn't booted it last inning).
