    He's doing fine right now for a #5 starter, but the Sox need to go out and get someone with experience to work deep into games. They can't afford to continue to burn up the pen with the 4th and 5th starters while forfeiting the games by the 5th starter

    Not if Pena is the first baseman

    The guy's 83 and loves to play the game. My hat is off to him. I'm 47, play in 2 softball leagues and by the end of the season my legs are aching. It took a lot of balls for an 83 yr. old to hang in against a young kid throwing over 80.

    Villone a comeback player? Don't you had to have been good once to win a comebacl award? Best catch should go to the play where Melky took out Damon for an inside the park homer. Best Glove: Phillips? Pathetic

    Whatever those cans cost, they are worth it.

    This is why Jeter can't be criticized, and why he is still playing SS. It's because of all the latent homo Yankee fans with their subconscious man-crushes on their matinee idol. You're like a bunch of giggly girls and you make me sick. Your manager head up the Jeter-Man-Crush fan club, otherwise he'd be playing second base, and ARod wouldn't be out of position at 3rd.

    I've been waiting to celebrate the day that Harris gets DFA'd.

    s***! I'll be at that game. When I was in Fla. I got to see jason Johnson. I am sick of seeing these human forfeit pitchers. Theo do something...please!

    Selig can kiss Manny's ass. Everyone around the league and the writers beat up on him for styling on his HRs and not hustling, but now they are all bitching and moaning that he should be on display at the All Star game. They can all kiss the future Hall of Famer's ass.

    I think Wily Mo will eventually be the starting first baseman, and Youk will move back to 3rd.
  11. a700hitter
    Sometimes stats don't tell the whole story. In one game, I witnessed Hoss play back for the double play and come home too late for the guy on 3rd, and later in the game with the infield in, he went for the DP and the go ahead run scored. He was one of the dumber players I have seen.
  12. a700hitter
    Duh, that's exactly what he should be saying. He doesn't want the other GMs knowing that he is desperate like he was last year. All the GMs will be touting the same line about not making any major moves, because last year they pursued pitching at the deadline so hard that they drove the price out of sight. I really don't care what Theo says for public consumption. He needs to get a real major leaguer in the rotation. If he doesn't and they continue to give away every 5th game, they will be overtaken by the Yanks and this $130 million dollar payroll will watch the post-season from their couches.

    Honorable mention has to go to: Horace Clarke at 2B Mike Greenwell OF

    That's my pick. It was the most exciting game that I have seen in person since Ortiz walkoff homer on Easter Sunday 2004.

    MVP-- Ortiz Comeback Pitcher--Schilling Comeback Position Player-- Cy Young--Papelbon Best Glove --Gonzalez Best Catch--Crisp vs. Mets Biggest Disappointment of a Pitcher --Clement/Foulke Biggest Disappointment of a Position Player --Varitek

    POS Lee up with 2 outs and he k's
  19. a700hitter
    Mr. DP does it again with 1st and 3rd in the 1st inning.
  20. a700hitter
    It would be hard to fault him on this count so far.
  21. a700hitter
    It's definitely not ridiculous. This guy has solidified the infield defense raising it to a level that I have not seen in 39 years. There has also been some clutch production with the stick. The guy is a keeper. Clement's contract is ridiculous. Anything spent on Jason johnson is ridiculous. A 2year 6-8 million contract would be a wise investment.
  22. a700hitter
    This will be a really cheap win for Beckett, but Unit got a bunch of thos with the Yankees last year.
  23. a700hitter
    It would definitely take a package, but if Hansen is the centerpiece, I say go for it.
  24. a700hitter
    I wouldn't trade him if I were the Marlins' GM. However, ORS said that Hansen was convinced that he will be traded for Willis. You say that you wouldn't make the swap because you value Hansen more than Willis, and in the next breath you argue that there is no chance of getting Willis. It seems like you argue out of both sides of your mouth. The discussion was whether D-Train would be a good acquisition for Hansen. Whether it can be done was irrelevant to the discussion. I also don't think the Marlins should move him, but apparently Hansen thinks it will happen. Whether it does or doesn't happen is irrelevant because the discussion is admittedly hypothetical.
  25. a700hitter
    If you add a pitcher to the rotation that takes you deep into the 7th and 8th innings every fifth day ( replacing guys that have been giving us 4 innings) would make a big difference by taking a lot of strain off the pen. I don't think too many GM's would agree with you on this one.
