Oh yeah, a manager would definitely take a full time DH over someone who can play two of the most difficult positions on the field (3B, SS) with gold glove quality and can hit. Yup, definitely.
Whatever you say.:dunno:
But, yeah, I'm sure if you asked 10 managers if they'd rather have a runner up MVP or a 2 time MVP, 9 would go with the former. Sure.
Please. He doesn't 'rest his bat on his shoulder' during the playoffs (you can't do that and have a .300+ AVG, like he does.) His downfall is that he tries too hard.
A-Rod's a clown? Please. This guy is one of the greatest to play in a long time (if not in all of baseball's history.) He's a better all around player than Ortiz likely ever will be (I don't think anyone would deny this, unless you're drowing in the kool aid) and his ticket to the HOF was punched awhile ago. Hardly laughable (unless he's on your team.)
I think there's a good possiblity the Red Sox will win tomorrow. It's hard to forget what the Sox did to Chacon last year, but this is a different team he'll be facing. And Wakefield is always a question mark versus the Yankees. Oh well, should be another good game.
And that closes out Moose's night.
6.2 IP, 7 H, 3 R, 3 ER, BB, 5 K (lowers the ERA to 2.56)
Was Randy watching tonight? I hope so. He should have asked Curt if he could borrow a piece of paper from his notebook.
Okay? I'm not sure where I was complaining about the treatment of Yankee fans, but....moving on...
How so?
Ask any player, whether they'd rather win the division or the wild card. It wouldn't even be close.
Next time these teams play, there should be a seperate game thread for the Yankee fans. This situation we have going right now obviously isn't working.
