The fact that he disagreed proves nothing and absolves him of nothing. It's nothing more than an "I told you so" excuse for him. If he was an effective leader, he would have convinced the others that it was not a good trade and it would not have been made.

I don't want him fired. I want him to be successful.:dunno: However, two more years without playoffs and the second highest payroll, and I can assure you that there will be plenty of other people leading the charge to have him fired.

If this team is not making a serious run in the playoffs by 2008 that will be the end of his long haul.

Let's not absolve Theo of anything because he was temporarily on an official hissy fit. He was there and he was consulted even though his capacity was not official.

The Twins and the White Sox are both losing tonight. The idle Red Sox could be 6 behind the wins and 5 behind the White Sox in the loss column at the end of the night. If the Red Sox had two or three starters, they might have had a chance.

It's a great ERA built on games against Washington, the Dodgers, Milwaukee, Houston, Atlanta and Arizona. He hasn't even faced the Mets or the Cards. When he faced 2 major league teams that could hit, he gave up 7 runs including 3 homers against the Red sox in 4 1/3 innings and he gave up 8 runs on 8 hits and 6 walks against the Phillies in in 4 1/3 innings. Here's his game log. I would n't take Sanchez on your '07 fantasy team just yet. http://florida.marlins.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/stats/individual_player_gamebygamelog.jsp?c_id=fla&playerID=434671&statType=2

Theo's worst move was not unloading Hansen, Lester and MDC or Crisp for Oswalt when he had the chance.

Lead-off triple by DeJesus spoils Unit's No-No. Too bad.

What happened the last time?

Red Sox scouts say that he reminds them of David Eckstein, so I guess that's the best we can expect. No one is saying that he remeinds them of Joe morgan or sandberg. He reinds them of a small overachieving average middle-infielder but Pedroia is not as fast. Well that sounds great. DFA Loretta...not.

It was like a Thanksgiving Feast!

Here comes the Royal bullpen. What a turkey! Gobble, gobble, gobble.

I had the #1 pick. The funny thing is that I was busy at work and forgot about draft night. My cousin picked the team for me in my absence. I think that he he did a pretty good job.

I find it very humorous. There's never any accountability when the Yankees lose. There's always an excuse. At least when the Red Sox lost to KC, we bitched about the lack of offense, the manager, the lack of pitching, etc. We knew the fault was within the Red Sox organization, not with the umps or the "loose" Royals. Pathetic excuses.

Bledsoe, Drew QB DAL McNair, Steve QB BAL Brown, Ronnie RB MIA Johnson, Larry RB KC Burress, Plaxico WR NYG Holt, Torry WR STL Cooley, Chris TE WAS Vinatieri, Adam K IND Panthers, DST DST CAR

Leiter and Singleton are whining about playing bad teams because they are loose. Whine, whine, whine ... all of you!

Villone being Villone finally.

What about Luke Hudson k'ing Abreu and Giambalco to end the 7th. Games rarely turn on 1 call. Witht the talent differential between the Royals and the yankees, you should have no complaints if you had to spot them a run or two.

Abreu...he gone!
