  1. What happened to Youklis? He came out of the game very early for Murphy.
  2. Never mind that there is no one in the Boston pen that can close like Papelbon, there are few in the game that can close like him. He was having an historic season. He's starting his career much the same way that Mo did, although Mo pitched his first season as a set up guy. Let's not forget that Mo had been a starter when he arrived in NY. After they saw him in the late innings, they would have done the rest of the league a favor if they had moved him back to starter. How history would have changed. Papelbon is not just a good closer or a very good closer. He's a lights out guy. They are really hard to find. If they can have him close for 10 years, it will make the managers life very easy. There is no guaranty that he will be anywhere as dominant as a starter.
  3. Maybe he'll hit, but when a hitter like Rice talks about how his stroke is too big I take that seriously. I think it will be very hard to be consistent with such a big stroke. Consistency is the hallmark of the major leaguer.
  4. Cano has classic hitters stroke. He has good size too so he's got some power. Pedroia is very small and his swing is big and wild. He makes contact, but he should be slapping the ball or hitting down on it. He's too small to be taking such a big swing. He needs to think like a #2 hitter and go to RF with the ball. He's got a lot of work to do on his stroke if he wants to be consistent at this level.
  5. Yankees win the season series 11-8. KC beat us 5 out of 6. If I were Yankee fans, I woiuldn't be too cocky about the playoffs.
  6. Oh my! I guess Terry will not. I didn't think of that.
  7. Thuuuhhhh Yankeees Loooose Again!!! Thuhhhhhhhh Yankees Looooose Again!!!!
  8. Would you rather he burn out your pen? You know it is very tough for Joe not to go to his horses.
  9. I'm disappointed that we did not see our 2007 RF Gary Sheffield.
  10. Krapler is just so easy to get out.
  11. Another weak pop out with a man on third and less than two outs. Krapler up with two outs.
  12. Nice bunt, speed caused the rushed throw and everyone is safe. Followed by the short pop Sac Fly to Bernie. Bernie throws a twelve hopper to the plate. Sox take the lead.
  13. Nice leadoff double by the Northeastern Kid.
  14. Good work by Loretta getting the DP.
  15. Coco with one of his sparklers. He's not a good CF but once in a while you have to applaud the guy.
  16. I think it's a reach to give the guy credit for a WP. The WP was on the 3rd pitch of the AB on an 0-2 pitch. It wasn't a good AB.
  17. He chased two bad pitches. It was not a good AB for him.
  18. Wild pitch by Myers. Tie game!
