holy crap, what a black hole 6-9 is going to be tonight
-
he's been good through 6 innings, and usually those first 6 innings are the toughest ones on a guy coming into the big leagues for the first time as long as he keeps getting guys out , ride him till the wheels come off. in recent years, there seems to be a guy who comes out of nowhere to stabilize the bullpen and who knows, maybe Chris Smith can be that guy this year.
-
In the context of catcher, define upgrade. It's become a clich? to say that his intangibles make him invaluable but when you see the success of the pitching staff, a good chunk of that success has to be attributed to Varitek and his preperation and game-calling ability. To me, it's worth accepting that you'll get about a .240-.250 average from him when you think of everything else he offers just like I thought it was worth it to hold on to Alex Gonzalez for his defensive ability.

1 inning officially. btw, how bout that Chris Smith?
-
I agree that considering the investment the Sox made in Schilling, they deserved to see if the injury could have healed through rehab but I still don't see how Schilling passed a physical prior to signing the contract
-
it has already come out that if Curt chooses to not retire, the earliest he will come back is after the 2009 All-Star Break. So that being said, if Curt had the surgery in ST, there was NO chance he was going to pitch this year
-
weak Manny....weak
-
Jays fired John Gibbons today, replacing him with Cito Gaston, their manager for their 2 WS titles, until the end of the year
-
at least it isnt '05 when the rotation was far worse off without Schilling than it is this year
-
unless he officially retires, I would think so. The Yankees have had to pay Carl Pavano his entire salary for the overwhelming service he's given the club

-
exactly, personally I think he chose his words well there
-
Boston.com - Extra Bases Not that I thought he was going to make any impact on the 2008 season but this just confirms it. It would suck if he's thrown his last major league pitch though.
-
what the hell kind of statement is that exactly?
-
pretty odd considering Riccardi usually chooses his words carefully. he's starting to feel the heat no doubt

Dave Bush had a no hitter through 7 against the Jays before Overbay broke it up with a triple

oh yea, very impressive against that amazingly potent Padres lineup... -
Pittsburgh put up 6 runs on the White Sox in the 2nd inning today, none of them charged to Gavin Floyd
-
if Zambrano's shoulder issues are serious, I could see the Cubs making a big time run at Sabathia
-
Ponson must've been really disruptive for a team who gives up as many runs as the Rangers to dump him. If I remember right, he did have a respectable 4-1 record with a 3.81 ERA in 9 starts
-
he refused to sign with the team when they drafted him 2nd overall in 1997

well, Hansen is back to sucking. I guess I should leave the country again, that's literally the only period of time he pitched well this year
