  1. going from 20 homers to 31 is a miraculous turn around? look, its always been in the back of my mind that Ortiz could have done steroids but if names like Clemens, Bonds, Sheffield, Giambi, Palmeiro, Rodriguez and Ramirez can be outed, I'll wait and see if Ortiz gets outed. Until then, I'll believe he didn't do them and not go by circumstantial evidence. but I'm glad you at least acknowledge the last four Yankee titles and the last six WS appearances are tainted just like I believe the last two Sox WS titles are tainted but in a twisted way, its justified cause it was tainted teams beating tainted teams and if anyone believes the Sox happened to be the only clean team yet somehow are the premier organization in baseball in this century, you're being naive
  2. Take away Manny's production and the Sox don't even get to Game 7 My point is for the last few decades, its been juiced up teams beating juiced up teams, that's just the way baseball was/is
  3. he's pitched five outs since April 29th... and sometimes its ok to put him in a lower-pressure situation, helps him build confidence when he's been a bit shaky lately
  4. Okajima has had some huge appearances lately, Francona showing him the confidence in a key setup situation is the right call
  5. yea...you're full of excuses for Rivera but don't give Ortiz any benefit of the doubt. Guess what, Brian Roberts never got any bigger either... answer me this, is the pennant the Yankees won in '03 tainted? are any of the WS titles they won in the late 90s tainted?
  6. this team is incredible. they know how to come back from huge deficits and they know how to lay down the hammer on games.
  7. For now, I really don't think he was cause from what we've seen over the past few years, it doesn't matter how big the name is, they get outed. And Ortiz hasn't been named in any legal document or outright accused by anyone and the only "proof" is that he was associated with a trainer who seems to have been friends with every Dominican player or that there might've been something in a shake he drank under a mango tree in the DR as a kid.
  8. We're supposed to accept that Ortiz was on steroids where there is no evidence or even hearsay about it aside from the fact that the guy hitting behind him did roids? And if we don't, we're being hypocrites? Posada hit .338 in 2005 and he's a .277 career hitter, he did steroids. If you don't believe that, you're a hypocrite. Rivera had his best season as a 38 year old, he did steroids. If you don't believe that, you're a hypocrite. Do you even believe the s*** you write up anymore?
  9. What is it you don't understand? The '04 Sox, with a roided Manny, beat the '04 Yankees, with a roided A-Rod and Sheffield. A tainted team beat a tainted team and you know what, you can say that for EVERY SINGLE MAJOR LEAGUE GAME that has been played for at least the last two decades. Guess what, Gom? The Yankees '03 ALCS win....is tainted!
  10. its night and day with Balfour compared to last year
  11. someone on EEI today said Lou Merloni would be a good color guy and I agree
  12. I wonder if a three-man booth of Don, Eck and Remy would work. I like what Eck brings to the broadcast aside from the arrogance from time to time
  13. bringing Penny back in the 7th gives the guy some confidence. Id go with it
  14. Jason Bay is quite simply a God.
  15. of course not, Gom is a troll and nothing more
  16. those are planes with smoke coming out of the two towers.....most tasteless tattoo ever who the hell would even give a guy a tattoo like that?
  17. aaaaaaaand now Molina's on the DL... Look for a cardboard cutout of John Flaherty to catch for the Yankees soon
  18. still resting his left side. just a note for tonight, the grounds crew put in a big #7 in the outfield in honor of the late Dom DiMaggio. I imagine there will be something pre-game to honor him as well
  19. Carl Crawford, LF
  20. http://www.hahastop.com/pictures/I_Fold.jpg
  21. Yup, sadly he will always be overshadowed by his brother's career which is a shame cause most guys can only dream of putting together the kind of career Dom DiMaggio did and ideally, a lot of the younger posters on this site will look at the thread title, think "Joe DiMaggio's brother played for the Sox?", look up his numbers, read up on how much he got out of such a little body and maybe it'll further enhance his legacy a little bit.
  22. proof that you havent followed the thread, that article's already been posted, assclown
