  1. Wake keeps leaving it up. For him to settle in, he needs to stop doing that.
  2. What a hose job on the 3-1. It's OK though, Wang looks like dung. Wang? Dung? Everybody have fun tonight, Everybody Wang Dung tonight.
  3. What do you call a ground ball to Jeter's left? A single.
  4. A little O/T, but Cust has given the A's some fat to chew regarding their roster. Piazza could still catch. He's horrible defensively, but how do you keep Kendall with his .188/.234/.204 line in the lineup just for defense? Johnson has made it so you don't want to play Piazza at 1B. Cust is raking, but is a butcher in the OF. If it's my call I go with the DH/C combo of Cust and Piazza.
  5. I'm good. Congrats on finishing school. There's no doubt, this won't be a money issue. The Yankees will meet or beat any offer. This comes down to how he feels, IMO.
  6. Wright cubically transformed that meatball into a low-orbit object.
  7. Ahh, the cubic transform. Very powerful.
  8. Nice movement on that splitter.
  9. Varitek is looking more and more like the JV of old. That's huge.
  10. Youk plays the pole. Yeah, I know it sounds funny.
  11. I don't get the reaction to Drew's non-dive. That was just smart baseball. There were two-outs with nobody on. It would have been a risky play that would have resulted in extra-bases if he misses it. You let the two-out, nobody on single drop in when the pitcher is cruising instead of playing it into possible extra-bases.
  12. Wow. He's just throwing darts out there. And, that was strike 3 to Larry.
  13. Gabbard looks a lot better than last year. The stuff is a bit sharper, but more importantly, the command is much better.
  14. We still own Hudson.
  15. Youk's got heart, but he's not a smart baserunner.
  16. POW! Just missed the dinger.
  17. Hudson better get the same strikezone. He's getting squeezed hard.
  18. Throw. Strikes. Carry on.
  19. No, arbitration isn't killing them. They can spend a little money when needed. They had a payroll close to $70M the year after they won the WS. They've been dumping talent for prospects lately and trading away salary because they know they need to rebuild more often than most teams because they can't afford to keep a roster at that level. I think they'll keep him as long as they can, and will only trade him if their requests for the moon in return are met. And, I don't see that happening because I think Miggy will test the market. It could go the other way, but I'll be shocked if they accept less than their demands. Just like it will be very surprising if he elects to sign an extension with a trading team. All the factors point to free-agency. I will say this, if he doesn't make it to the market, then the Sox should spare no expense to get him on the roster and extended long-term.
  20. I think Cabrera hits FA. Think about it. He will be the biggest FA to hit the market since ARod, and he will get the next mega-deal. Nobody is going to want to give up a truckload of prospects if they can't work out a deal to extend him before FA, and I don't think there's any way he doesn't want to test the market. The next big thing with 5 or 6 of the big money teams after him? There's no way he gives that up.
