Masterson vs. Sonnanstine

 

Wanted to make this as early as possible to try and forget Thursday's game. Let's get back on track.

Hey man, where's the fan club in your sig? We need that to win dammit!

[riverside sluggers]

Masterson the current No. 2 guy getting it done tonight. Sox offense should hit Andy good, and then some

[jacksonianmarch]

the sox offense never hits Andy well. That being said, I likely jinxed him into giving up 8 runs tonight

In 6 starts vs Boston, Andy is 1-1 with a 5.40 ERA

[schillingouttheks]

I think there has been a lack of "schillingouttheks" mojo, personally. I think that's what our top starters are missing.

[Cocos Disciples]

I agree.

[Dipre]

I'm GTing tonight, trying to add my grain of salt.

I should have put a caveat of last season in there. He threw 13.1IP of shutout ball vs the sox in 2 games last yr. Not to mention the 7.1IP 3ER performance in his victory over the sox in the ALCS.

[jacksonianmarch]

also, wondering about the choice of Lugo. You have a sinkerballer on the hill in Masterson and you choose to put in the poor fielding Lugo rather than the sure handed Green

They both suck.

"Sure handed Green?"

 

Are you addicted to crack, son?

 

Are you down to the levels of sucking cock for some blow?

 

Because that has to be the stupidest thing you have ever said on this board, and considering your lack of WIN for the time i've been here, then that's a f***ing milestone!

 

Congrats, Jacko, you just got elected to the Hall-Of-Fame of stupidity.

 

Sure handed Green, Jesus Christ........

[a700hitter]

What happened to RemDawg? Buck martinez is being interviewedon the NESN pre-game show.

[ms_sox]

Let's win it tonight, boys.

Or I might have to send my cat to poop in your shoes.

 

I will miss CharlieX .. er, I mean Nick Green.

[riverside sluggers]

Remy is ill. He also missed time during spring training games

[Youk Of The Nation]

If they don't win I am going to drink until my liver LITERALLY dissolves into a clump of useless jelly.

[a700hitter]

Remy is ill. He also missed time during spring training games

Was there any reference to his absence yesterday?

[Thumper]

Most experts would agree, the objective of tonight for the Red Sox is to win.

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

If they don't win I am going to drink until my liver LITERALLY dissolves into a clump of useless jelly.

Like your brain??

[Youk Of The Nation]

Like your brain??

 

Obviously my brain works, or else it would be incapable of processing the neural impulses and converting them into the physical impulses that cause my heart to beat, lungs to breathe, and my thought centers to comprehend the sensory input that implies you are a moron.

You have thought centers and sensory input?? Well it is obviously flawed since I am no moron.

[Youk Of The Nation]

You willing to put that up to a board vote?

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

You willing to put that up to a board vote?

LETZ DO IT

[Cocos Disciples]

Wait, are we voting on whether YOTN has a brain?

[Jacoby_Ellsbury]

Wait' date=' are we voting on whether YOTN has a brain?[/quote']

No, we're voting on me. YOTN not having a brain is an unspoken truth around here isn't it??

[Youk Of The Nation]

Yeah, we're voting on whether or not JE is a moron.

[Cocos Disciples]

Oh excellent. Should we bring evidence and an opening statement, or just wing it?
