  1. I do give Benny credit in that he said that this team is a reflection on him.
  2. When asked if Morales would be starting on a more permanent basis, Valentine responded that he has wanted him to start from the beginning and they are trying to make that work. I assume "from the beginning" means when he started throwing long relief. Bobby V is managing this team with one arm tied behind his back.
  3. Dice K is almost finished with his latest rehab. Does anyone want to see him back in the rotation? Does anyone think that he can help?
  4. I realize that a lot of people are excited about this kid, and justifiably so. He looks to have a very bright future. The thing that bothers me is the assumption that he will step in for Ellsbury, our current CFer wiith a ton of speed and good power. I don't understand how a wealthy team like the Red Sox have become an organization that develops stars only to let them walk to other organizations once they blossom. How did we become the Kansas City Royals? I am excited about seeing this kid in a couple of seasons playing RF alongside Ells and Crawford to make up a super speedy OF-- an OF full of young and veteran stars.
  5. Is it that his swing is so fluid that it looks slow or does he just not have a lot of bat speed? He may not be pulling balls to RF because he can't. When you see him and Ortiz up close, the difference in bat speed is very noticeable.
  6. His cap may be lower than you think, because he hasn't pitched more than 50 innings in each of the last 7 years. He's hit his all time innings high already.
  7. Cruz nearly knocked the wall down.
  8. He's finally making an effort to earn his money. They are not ridiculous numbers, because they are only for a month. Ortiz had better than 1.000 OPS for the season.
  9. I think Crawford should just let the ligament heal over the winter.
  10. Verlander threw his 130 th pitch at 100 mph. He ended up with 14 k's, including Ichiro 3 times. Ichiro hadn't k'd once in 49 ABs with the Yanks.
  11. Welcome to the life of Mets fans trying to outlast the Wilpons.
  12. Verlander starts the 8th inning with 111 pitches and a 7-2 lead. Now, that's a man.
  13. We have more than 4 runs, so we have a pretty good chance.
  14. Sucker's bet to say no.
  15. ^The major reason that I hate the 2 wild cards. You have to root for the Yankees at times.
  16. The organization is embarrassing itself on a daily basis on and of the field.
  17. After the first batter, you will probably be off the hook.
  18. Okay. 2.5 will generate more betting.
  19. What is the latest on Ortiz' injury?
  20. Over/Under on Homers against Cook is 2. I'll take the over.
