Okay, Beckett should just turn around and throw the ball over the wall so they get to 7 and Tito can remove him. Let's hope Atchinson has a good night.
-
Oh, I forgot. He gets to give up 2 more runs. He's only at 5.
-
Get him out of the game before he blows this on us!!!
-
The Mets-Phillies played a 1-0 game that took only 2:09. That's great! I hate these marathon 3+ hour games.

Check out the Rays unis.
-
I should have benched Beckett's ass and kept R.A. Dickey who threw a 1-hit shutout against the Phillies.
-
Ellsbury has been replaced by Patterson. I thought I saw him wince on a swing in his second AB. s***!
-
-
At least he is not a rat and a religious hypocrite too!
-
The OFers can't defend the ones over the fence. Wow, a manager that takes his starter out before a 7 spot is on the board. What a novel idea. Watching Tito for years, I just assumed it was against the terms of the collectively bargained contract to take a starter out before he gave up 7 runs.
-
The Orioles and Rays are wearing throwback uniforms. I hate that s*** . I remember the Orioles hideous orange circa 1970 unis. The Rays were not in existence, and i don't ever remember them wearing what they are wearing tonight. Has anyone else seen these? BTW Felix Pie just misplayed a pop fly into a triple by over running it and falling down.

What happened to Pettitte... did the needle break off in his ass?
-
-
Lowrie is raking. The kid could always hit when healthy. The Texas OF is killing us with their fielding plays so far, and Beckett is still a steaming pile of s*** like in his last start. He hasn't pitched for basically the entire season. By the time he gets his s*** together we will be mathematically eliminated.
-
Maybe. I'll be glad to have Papelbon around for another season.
-
The good guys in that group want closer's jobs. The rest of the group would give Tito ulcers.

Dude, you are going to have to argue with yourself about this. I really don't care about the direction of the Royal organization. I am pissed that the Yanks will miss Greinke this weekend. I also remember that Guillen has had some very good series against the Yanks in the past, but he is gone.
-
I brought up Broxton, because he too is a great closer that has had some real stinkers this season. People get so overboard reactionary when Papelbon has a bad game. They all have some stinkers (maybe with the exception of Rivera). You say that you are not willing to pay Paps $10 per year, but for that same $10 million can the FO improve the team in other areas that will more than make up for the tremendous loss in the bullpen from letting him go. That is the value decision that the FO will make. They are not going to decide not to pay Papelbon because he is running his mouth and they have Bard. If Papelbon brings more value to the team at $10 million than they can find on the market at other positions for that $10 million, then the sound business judgment would be to keep him.
-
How is Jonathan Broxton trending after yesterday's game? Probably not too good. Here's what people tend to overlook. This Red Sox team is a much better team with Papelbon and Bard at the end of the bullpen than with just one or the other. I am dubious about the opportunity to use Paps money to upgrade another position to equal or exceed what will be an enormous downgrade in the pen. Papelbon will be gone soon enough when Bard can demand the big $. Until then, I'd prefer to go with both horses.
-
Must you argue about everything. Lol! I guess the Giants traded for him to make sure that he didn't go to another team when he was released. As for Yankee luck, they will not be facing Greinke either. I'd rather the Yanks face a Royal lineup with Guillen rather than without him, but that's just my opinion.
-
For a PTNL. Nice pickup by the Giants, although he is no Eric Patterson. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/2010081313403346/ Also, as luck would have it for the Skanks, there opponents have traded away their best player.
-
We pounded Papelbon for yesterday's game against Toronto and deservedly so, but did anyone see what the Phillies did to Broxton last night. It was brutal. It happens to the best of them. I wouldn't throw Broxton out with the garbage just yet. http://m.mlb.com/news/article/2010081213374814/
