Thank you VMart!!
-
Their FO buried them when they shipped off Kazmir to dump salary.
-
Tito had seen enough. Hmmm. Usually, he waits until the lead has been coughed up.
-
Maybe a little less excitement about him after that bomb.
-
Let's see what Wagner has today.

That was not what I said. That was part of his resume, and he was a starter on 3 consecutive WS teams. That's different than being a starter for one year. Good teams are strong up the middle. A team that goes to the World Series three years in a row is strong up the middle. Their middle IF's may not have been offensive weapons, but they were certainly very good in their defensive roles. The A's with Henderson, McGwire, Canseco, and Lansford didn't need offense. Billy martin was the starting second baseman on several Yankee World Series teams. He was a light hitter, and he wasn't and All Star either, but I wouldn't conclude that he was garbage. He was a very good role player.

Yanks losing 14-5 to Toronto. Mitre's ERA ballooned to over 7.
-
He played 13 years in the majors and was the starting second baseman on 3 World Series team' date=' including one world championship. That's not garbage. He wasn't an All Star, but not garbage either.[/quote']

Dammit! he hit it off the end of the bat to staight away CF.
-
He should have.
-
Nah, just until he starts being Pedroia again. That's entirely up to him. Right now he's playing like a Loretta clone.
-
Nice bunt by Pedroia. Very Loretta-ish.
-
Several other scouts did think his upside was Mark Loretta. Mike Gallego was an underrated player. He did last 13 years in the big leagues. I have admitted being wrong about Pedroia several times, but show me the predictions of Rookie of the Year and MVP in his first two years. Otherwise, pretty much everyone under-estimated the kid. It was just a matter of degree. He's easy to under-estimate. There is absolutely nothing impressive about him physically. He tiny, not fast and he has an average arm. It's what he's got inside that is special.
-
2-0 on the Mike Lowell HR, but he'll be benched tomorrow for Varitek... possibly even Kotchman.
-
6-0 Baltimore-- still batting in the 4th.
-
Is he becoming Mark Loretta? That is what scouts thought he would be.
-
Ortiz could definitely beat him in a race. Until that IF hit, we were helping Danks with his pitch count.
-
5-0 Oriloles with 1 out and 2 on in the bottom of the 4th. If the Rangers can't beat the Orioles they will fade fast.
-
Danks at 43 pitches after 2 innings.
-
Baltimore is leading Texas 2-0 in the top of the 4th.
-
WOw that turned the inning around for Lester! Nice play by Pedroia.
-
A comparison to Kennedy. High praise indeed.
