  1. Tizzle crushed that one. :ortiz:
  2. This sucks for those nice Dodger fans. At least J.D. Drew's signed long term in LA so I think they'll be fine next year. Plus they'll have a healthy Gagne and I hear they'll be one of the top bidders in that upcoming bid for that Jap pitcher Matzasaka.
  3. Actually, this is exactly where I want my tax dollars spent. I finally get to see my taxes at work doing something for ME. Keep it up!
  4. All of it idiot. (no sarcasm you tool)
  5. It's the first place I'll go after one of his starts. F the Boston media. Great site. Who's a member there? I just signed up.
  6. All of it idiot.
  7. They have both been great this spring so far. Snyder, one could say, is healthy for the first time in a looooong time. I really don't know what he can become. Stifler is still a work in progress and a lefty who, when he's on, is pretty damn good. Did I mention he's a lefty??? Either way, they are both placeholders.
  8. I hope the Yanks way overbid on Rocket and win. It would be like RJ all over again! woohoo!
  9. I never saw Hansack pitch because of cable problems, but he is interesting to me. I'd go with Snyder right now. Actually my order would be Snyder/Gabbard/Tavarez until Lester arrives. I hope Rocket never leaves Houston.
  10. Actually, I thought he'd be dominant for 5 innings a game then be gassed by the 6th. The man was not going to throw 200 innings if you saw the way he's pitched so far in spring training. He was pitching like a closer in all of his innings. I was actually more worried about his arm being blown out as a starter to be honest. He only knows one speed and that is full throttle. He couldn't possibly keep that up for 200 innings. Papelbon may be 'too fuking intense' to be a starter right now. A little age may help with that though. And remember, this move may not be forever. Should the Sox find a decent closer next year then Pap may still get his shot at the rotation and be only 27.
  11. After about 10 minutes of thought on the subject, my reaction is that this team (in my eyes) went from playoff contender to WS contender. Look, it was only a matter of time before Pap went back to the pen if the team didn't have a closer by mid season. My call was the All-Star break, but hey, even better he start the year there. By ALL accounts, Pap's shoulder is in the best shape strengthwise it's ever been. So why not? He's not against this move and he's only making 400k/year. If he really thought he might be injured by this move do you think he'd risk the millions he's bound to get in the future as a starter? He may be a hick, but he's not stupid. I think Lester is on the A Train to the Majors in a couple of months so Snyder (not Tavarez) should get the call to hold down the 5 spot until then. Good move because it was going to happen anyway.
  12. Ortiz out at 3rd. Ehhh, gotta let the big man have some fun when he wants to go for it.
  13. I didn't even know Burns was on the team until today. His career stats suck though. He can't be any worse a closer prospect than Pineiro is.. Snyder actually looked really good today. His pitches were moving all over the place. Some even wound up in the strike zone.
  14. I wish there was a "Bitter" smiley. Congrats on the DTV.
  15. and just like that my mlb.com feed died. What a screw job.
  16. I'm watching Nesn on MLB.com and it seems fine. It's the Mlb.com stream that's pissing me off. Either the 700kb stream is not in place for Spring Training or it's complete ********.
  17. Matsuzaka's looking good again. How did we not score in the first??
  18. f***ing ********.
