    I can almost hear Proctor yelling out "freedom" on his flight to LA

    The best bullpen in baseball has just gotten better. Something Id like to call the 3-headed monster (name in Greek mythology?)... Okajima for the 7th, Gagne for the 8th, Papelbon for the 9th. This also gives added insurance that Okajima wont be overused by the time September comes around I wish Gabbard, Murphy and Beltre all the best and hope they succeed in Texas. Hey Gabbard's a soft tossing lefty, ugh. Sox starting August will officially have a rotation of Beckett, Matsuzaka, Schilling, Wakefield, Lester Sucks to hear about Donnelly but good to know the Sox are by his side during the long trip back. Kudos to Theo keeping that quiet One of those relievers (most likely Lopez or Snyder) will need to be moved when Curt comes back

    http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/jon_heyman/07/31/tuesday.scoop/ The Sox are right now the leading team in the 3 team race (Red Sox, Yankees, Mets) to acquire Gagne. Whats blocking right now is that Boston is on his no trade list (and he wants to close), so the Sox would have to consult with him as the clock ticks away

    http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/whitesox/cs-070730soxbits,1,7017262.story?coll=cs-home-headlines Always down to the deadline. The talks were still ongoing with Theo offering players (not MDC & Masterson) along with Wily Mo Pena. Kenny Williams will sleep on it ande decide what to do as the trade deadline comes closer http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2007/07/31/some_life_to_a_deal_for_dye/

    Per ESPN ticker, the Royals will be receiving starter Kyle Davies. Great pickup by the Royals as Davies is still just 23 years old

    The Twins got ass raped in this deal, plain & simple

    http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/7074020 Braves are going for it all. They are now closing in on a deal with the Royals for Octavio Dotel

    Previous reports had the Sox guaranteeing Dye at most 5 days a week of playing time. Masterson yes I would do. One of the reasons you build good pitching depth is that they are also good trade bait. I like Theo's hold on his young talent but cm,on not everyone of these guys will make the rotation and bullpen Gordon Edes Ooh such warm feelings. That would be 3 straight years the Sox stand pat with what they have

    that ballerina strikeout pose by Drew is just awful to watch Annnd the Sox lose, wouldve been nice to get this game down with the day off tomorrow. The Sox do have the O's but face their 2 best pitchers in the series Beckett vs Bedard Gabbard vs Trachsel Guthrie vs Wakefield
  11. riverside sluggers
    Manny & Yooouk go back to back, 3 run game now
  12. riverside sluggers
    yay an out, wouldve liked that much sooner Yankees have the bases loaded with 1 out in the 7th, Matsui up at bat
  13. riverside sluggers
    4-0 snowball effect 1st pitch after the meeting with Delcarmen and the pitching coach, a lot good that did as he gave up a meatball of a pitch EDIT: f*** MDC thanks its now 5-0, why dont you keep throwing these meatball pitches

    .184 hitter Navarro has hit the Sox well this season, and since June the Sox offense has been giving Dice-K the "Wakefield treatment". Now in 10 of his last 12 starts, the Sox have given Dice 2 runs or less of support. In his 8 losses they have scored a grand total of 8 runs
  15. riverside sluggers
    only positive the offense today has done is get his pitch count up, 84 pitches through 5 innings
  16. riverside sluggers
    Ortiz really needs to get that surgery done, if only the Sox had a solid backup for his departure. While having a very good avg he's been a shell of himself His last performance of at least 3 RBIs was way back on May 9th against Toronto. Since then in a span of 63 games (33 RBIs), only 7 games he has had RBIs, 36 of those games have seen him not drive in any runs
  17. riverside sluggers
    Holy s***, this wont help Jason Jennings' trade value any... 1st inning of his start against San Diego there has been 11 runs scored with still 2 outs http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=270729118

    roto
  19. riverside sluggers
    Lugo and Pedroia take 12 pitches and end up both getting on base... Ortiz/Manny combo are tired and make the last 3 outs on 2 pitches
  20. riverside sluggers
    With Jason Varitek having to catch a 5 hour game last night, Mirabelli will have his first game catching of Daisuke Matsuzaka. Drew gets another day off Matsuzaka this season on the road in 12 games, 6-4 with a 3.19 ERA Kazmir this season vs Boston in 2 games, 0-1 with a 2.25 ERA. At home in 13 games, 2-3 with a 3.20 ERA
  21. riverside sluggers
    I fully realize that. Im just tired of hearing some team asking the Sox for the moon for one guy... then see them turn around to another team and deal him off for lower tier players EDIT: Hmmm
  22. riverside sluggers
    Craig Breslow is biding his time in Pawtucket while Tito tries to hang onto one of "his guys", Timlin. Sigh Breslow in 2007, 35 appearances- 1-1, 2.53 ERA, .222 BAA 53.1 innings, 44 Hits, 21 Runs (15 ER), 5 HRs, 17 Walks, 55 Ks Last year in Pawtucket, 39 appearances- 7-1, 7 saves, 2.69 ERA, .200 BAA 67 innings, 49 Hits, 21 Runs (20 ER), 3 HRs, 24 Walks, 77 Ks

    http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2007/07/29/dye_has_tools_sox_need/ Just f***ing wow, according to Nick Carfado, Hideki Okajima wouldve been one of the players the White Sox were asking for. So with the previous report (Sean MaCAdams), Kenny Williams was asking for players such as Clay Bucholz, Jacoby Ellsbury AND Hideki Okajima for a 2 month rental of Jermaine Dye? The article now goes on to say that they just might settle on Bobby Kielty... but also there are still no takers for Wily Mo with just 2 days away. The question is will they get any deal done at all? Or will it be like last year and standing pat with what they have? I swear Theo must be an ass or something around the GMs, because the asking price is sky high with all other teams when it comes to the Sox.

    The Padres still made off better off in a deal for a set up man who's Ks are decling and HR's are stacking up. They got Inman along with 2 quality relief prospects, one of which is already in the Padres' pen The Rangers got for an all-star type closer-- Clippard who had a cup of coffee in the majors (6.33 ERA in 6 starts for NY), and some guy named Brett Gardner that up until today, Ive never head of when discussing top prospects. I bet your bottom dollar that Texas had demanded Ellsbury or Lester for Gagne
  25. riverside sluggers
    Ive been wondering why the sox have said to be targeting relievers like Dotel. Maybe Timlin's been hurting and theyve been trying to keep it under wraps until they get a deal done. EDIT: Tito said Timlin's shoulder has been "a little achy"
