And he got a literal "f*** you" from the Yankees when he was told his services weren't needed this winter.

"You are Wade Miller. You are always injured. You prefer to have a weird release point, and throw across your body. Alleyways are your favorite hook-up spot. Beer is your mommy." These quizzes are biased.

Can anyone think of anything more comfortable than not wearing any pants?

Considering he's taken the season off with RISP, I don't think he's needed any extra rest.

This must be what it felt like when Spike Owen signed with the Yankees.

I'd suggest not becoming a guidance counselor if you thought Wells was smart.

I heard it was a blister, who knows. And on Hughes, he hasn't pitched in a month after being shut down with shoulder trouble. And he developed shoulder trouble despite a strict order to not throw breaking pitches at all.

Actually, you did a lot more than that, which is why I responded in kind. Anyways, we can all move on now.

They sell Italian sausages outside of the park as well. You can't bring those into the ballpark either. I'm sure the economical ramifications of spending twofold inside of the park is a much bigger issue than this alledged "freedom of speech" problem, but they both are simply rules of the Red Sox in regards to conduct inside their building.

A common misconception, the Red Sox have, and never will sell the stuff at the ballpark. It's vendors outside of Fenway that choose to do so outside of Fenway Park. Saying "they", the people who ban the shirts, sell them is analogous to saying "they" also scalp tickets outside of the ballpark, when it's pretty obvious that is not the case.

Who says you have to wear a shirt emblazoned with the word Yankees to prove you hate the Yankees? I figured it's pretty much a given that if you're a Red Sox fan, you dislike the Yankees. And a given that the two teams are rivals. I think it really shifts from rivalry to obsession with the opposing team with stuff like this. And that goes for the idiots with "Boston Sucks" shirts as well.

What, civlized? If, you know, the Yankees did indeed "suck", I'd be up in arms as well. The thing that sucks, is they really don't. They're pretty good. Considering the chant stems from a serious inferiority complex, I'm glad they're taking the proper steps to squash that out. Let the focus be on the Red Sox for once. Maybe people will stop obsessing over the Yankees for once. Probably not.

I've always hated the "Yankees suck" crap. From the shirts to the chants, that stuff just has to go. It says a lot about the wearer/chanter, that their baseball obsession lies more at the feet of hating the Yankees than loving the Red Sox. When you're expending more energy, positive or negative (obviously negative in this case), on a team you alledgedly hate, you should really reassess your priorities. And this is from someone who, unequivocally, dislikes the Yankees.

Tony Clark's a weird dude. He's Babe Ruth in Arizona. Go figure. He's a nice guy, but he was open about how the stress of the impending strike in 2002 totally had his mind elsewhere. I think pressure imight not be this guy's best friend, to be honest.

Considering Francona told Bellhorn that before Graffanino was even acquired that he had likely lost his job..... Yeah, he'd be sending him out there every day. Seriously, get a clue. And where is far, who is loyalty, and why is he going there?

Break up the Royals!

Yeah, there was that game where they had the final out, a can of corn to the outfield, that Ambres dropped. Cleveland scored like 12 runs that inning and won. I think that was loss number 7 or so.

I'd figure you'd have a soft spot for Tony Clark making a final out with the tying and go-ahead runs on base.

I should win these tickets because I had to give away my pair to the only game I had tickets to this year. They lost that game. Giving me the tickets also guarantees a Red Sox win, as I'm on a ridiculous winning streak. Last loss was August (I believe) of 2002, Carl Everett's first game back in Boston, Lowe started, I believe some combo of Urbina and Willie Banks gave up the lead and game, Cliff Floyd got what seemed his first and only hit with runners on, and Grady Little allowed Tony Clark to make the final out of the game with the tying and go ahead runs on base, but I digress.

They've had tons of starting pitching prospects. They've blown out half of the arms. KC is one of the only teams that doesn't tightly watch the minor league pitchers' innings and pitch counts, and predictably they haven't developed really any productive starters, outside of Greinke who looks gassed this year. Sad thing is, you might have to throw him onto the scrapheap as well, which is sad because he was looking like the next Sabes. Going back to 2003 and backwards to 1999, here are the pitchers that have appeared in their top 10 prospects according to Baseball America: Zack Greinke Jeremy Hill Jimmy Gobble Colt Griffin Mike McDougal Miguel Ascencio Kyle Snyder Brad Voyles Chris George Jeff Austin Mike Stodolka Dan Reichert Orber Moreno Chad Durbin Junior Guerrero Brian Sanches That's one potential impact starter in Greinke (who knows what his future holds), and one pretty good bullpen arm in McDougal.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay off topic...... Looking through old posts on Netsports, I found a particularly confusing post, by myself. I said something like, "it's not time to break out lampshades just yet". I had no clue what I was really referring to, until I searched the word "lampshades", and realized I was referencing one of your posts. I actually thought it was pretty funny. On Jeter's "improving defense": "And batting a solid .220! Woohoo. Party with lampshades!!!!" ======================================== quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Originally posted by RedSoxRooter And batting a solid .220!

You're a troll, plain and simple. Please go play hide and go f*** yourself. And I'm being eloquently succinct, here.

Yeah, they should just call up a guy who's struggling at AA, and hope he can hack it in the majors. That would be a sound move. And please, Youkilis is completely irrelevant to the discussion of Hanley's future. A more apt comparison like Donnie Sadler would be relevant. http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/donnie_sadler.shtml
