  1. Giambi would have spiked that ball or thrown it to the backstop.
  2. Maddon is a f***ing idiot.
  3. Bring him up. He's one guy who could break Ortiz out of his slump. He has hit some tape measure jobs off him.
  4. I am amazed that Beckett got through 7 innings. It took him 120 pitches. I attribute this outing more to the suckiness of the Seattle offense tahn anything else. BTW without Papi in the lineup, the DH spot is still an automatic out.
  5. 4th or 5th inning of every game he blows up his pitch count.
  6. Beckett will not make to the 6th. The pen will have to provide 3+ innings again. You can only go to the well so often.
  7. Here we go again. I am really sorry that I kept Beckett on one of my Fantasy teams. Nice play by Lugo.
  8. Home Run Derby beckett is at it again. Here comes another late night loss.
  9. Don't forget to allow time for the beating.
  10. The time to worry is if they run the score to 4-0.
  11. No Bedard. Our ace against this puss pimple. This is a sure fire loss for the Sox.
  12. Skills that deteriorate with age and injury is the natural order of things, you trolling boob. A 37 year old whose performance spikes up like Ramirez gives cause for suspicion.
  13. I think they are in a good spot everywhere but the rotation. There are lots of questions in the rotation. We haven't seen 2007 beckett since 2007. Lester finds a way to give up a big inning in every game. Dice K looked like s*** before he was DL'd and even when he is healthy he has trouble getting into the 6th inning. I'm not expecting anything from Smoltz. Wakefield gives me an ulcer, and Bucholz is completely unproven at the ML level.
  14. Our awesome starting rotation blew up again. They continue to suck. Is anyone still wondering what where they are going to find room for all the great starters when Dice K is activated, the 42 year old Smoltz is activated, and when the AAA dominating Bucholz is brought up?
  15. 4 laughing emoticons didn't give me away?
  16. The kid's a bust. He didn't impress me at all. I saw him at ST and he hit a come backer to the pitcher. Package him and a couple of other prospects for a good starting pitcher (maybe Halladay if Toronto drops from the race) at the trading deadline. Don't wait till he flops like Craig Hansen.:lol::lol:
  17. But those who are stupid like manny will get caught.
  18. I'm not sure if this is progress. The lesson that cheaters will take from this is to be more careful about the source and documentation of PED purchases. There probably were quite a few calls to doctors regarding medical records and files after Manny got nailed. I think you can argue that there was more of an even playing field prior to this program. If you wanted to use, you did. Everyone had the same opportunity without worry of being penalized. Now, a player has to have more sophisticated knowledge of PEDs and a reliable, discreet supply chain. Only the smarter, better connected players will be able to cheat without fear of accountability. Maybe I am cynical, but I don't view this as progress. I think it is an elaborate farce.
  19. I feel like we are going around in a circle. The point of my post was that if he had purchased the drug on the black market without a prescription he would not have been suspended.
  20. It didn't show up on any test. That's the point of the article. He didn't test positive for any banned substance.
  21. Why bench him tonight? A RHP with a 7.62 ERA is taking the hill for Seattle. He could be just what the doctor ordered for Ortiz.
