The day I take advice from you, is the day I tell you that I am really RtT. Oops. $50 says he doesn't notice.

Belanger was a .228 career hitter, and he had two 40 RBI+ seasons. He hit .258 against the Sox and had 43 RBI's for his career against Boston. Those came in a season's worth of AB's. Belanger doesn't rate as a good clutch hitter either. Late and close stats? Batted .223, with 57 RBI's, in two seasons worth of AB's. Grich wasn't even remotely similar to Belanger. Grich was actually a pretty good hitter, and his value is even more maginfied due to his position. He hit .242 against Boston. With Baltimore against Boston? 1970 - 0-11 1971 - 0-4 1972 - 10-60 1973 - 13-68 1974 - 18-70 1975 - 19-56 1976 - 19-57 .242. Walt Weiss hit .241 against Boston. With 8 RBI's. Zero HR's. Dominant. Speizio? You mean Scott Speizo? The guy has never had an AB with the Yankees. Never. Not one. Maybe you should check out those stats. Oh, and Joe Girardi? Take a guess what he hit in the postseason. Below the f***ing Mendoza line. .182. How clutch. How tuff. How grity. f*** stats. No, sir. You do. This took me 5 f***ing minutes to look up.

My bad.

Too many black holes in that lineup. Huff, Patterson, and Gibbons are horrendously bad. I don't think you can win with that many sub .300 OBP guys. VORP numbers Huff - -2.6 Patterson - -5.7 Gibbons - -7.8 A Replacement Value player will average a VORP of zero. These guys are actually more detrimental to the team, then an AAA player. Do you think they could find a pitcher who can throw strikes? If anyone is stupid enough to trade for Steve Trachsel, they need to move him. A .5 BB/K ratio? He's due to get rocked in a couple of starts. A move the Orioles could consider: Mark Teixeria for Daniel Cabrera and Adam Loewen.

What an idiot.

Crippled. This guy is on your side? Argument killed.

Oh, but you wanted him in the game?

He does? Could have fooled me.

f*** you, Fred. You wanted to replace Pena with Larry Bigbie. You can no longer be taken seriously.

If Lugo hadn't made the error, the game would have been over.

Fitting, no?

I was rooting for Wang to throw his perfect game. We took the Mariners with $10 because the odds were at +500, we'd get the money back if he finished them off.

This kid will be in the big leagues in about two or three years.

The pressure hurts him so bad that he hits .60 points below his career average? Not buying it.

And Jason Varitek has exactly what to do with the physical problems of Coco Crisp?
