  1. Yes, let's look at numbers. Look at the career list for the following categories: Winning %, WHIP, Hits/9 innings, K's/9 innings, and Adjusted ERA. Tell me where Clemens or even Cy Young are in those categories. Pedro is in the top 3 of all those categories, except where he has just barely slipped to # 4 behind Ryan in Hits/9innings. Also, tell me if there are any other statistical categories that are better indicators of a pitcher's worth. He's not only the best pitcher to wear a Red Sox uniform, but the best of all time. I saw the Rocket from his rookie year and I watched all the big pitchers from the 60's. None of them can claim to better than Pedro. Edit: These numbers go beyond his prime. His prime was other-worldy, and frankly, his career numbers are close to other-worldy.
  2. If the Guardians light up Wang again, the Yankees will still manage to outscore them, because Byrd stinks.
  3. Wedge needs to know that you have to keep your foot on the Yankees' throats until they stop breathing...and then you need to stab them in the heart to make sure that they are dead. Sabathia and Carmona should pitch games 4 and 5. Going with Byrd is like forfeiting a game.:thumbdown
  4. Brother of Home Run Derby lives up to the family name.
  5. Manny styled and Weaver didn't notice because even he turned around to see how far that one would go. I'd say about 445
  6. I'm going to the bar for the duration. Hopefully Papi goes deep right here.
  7. He beat the throw but clearly came of the base while Lowell kept the tag on him.
  8. He came completely off the bag. The ump picked his head up to sell the call to Lowell and he missed the call.
  9. Youk should have stepped on the bag and gone for the tag play on the slow Rivera.
  10. Rivera is very slow. He's no threat to run.
  11. I don't think it was just a coincidence. The only other time he was on the DL the team experienced a similar precipitous collapse-- the 2 worst collapses thaey have had in the last 10 years.
  12. Nice stop by the ump. It cost us a run. Big squander.
  13. Crisp swung at one way out of the zone.
  14. If Tek doesn't put it in play, we'll be staring at a big squander
  15. Mr. Doubles strikes again. Second and Third and no outs
  16. Schilling left that pitch up to Anderson. He's lucky that it was hit right at Drew.
  17. He's the brother of Home Run Derby Weaver. Someone will take him deep. It's in his DNA.
