  1. Wow paps, umm... strikes?\ EDIT: There we go. At this point the game should be over.
  2. HATE HATE HATE defensive indifference. This is a 4 run game, not that difficult for Texas to catch up if Paps has a bad day at the office.
  3. Omar Vizquel should have been struck out on the previous pitch. clear blown call by the umpire.
  4. There wasn't really time to warm anyone else, and besides, this is a big enough win save situation or no, if he can pin it down. Our wild card lead is at stake after all. Paps just got screwed on ball 2. that was clearly in the zone.
  5. On the other hand I suppose the Rangers have a beef on at least one of the called balls so it might have been a makeup call.
  6. that was an extremely bad call. Two pitches called ball in that at bat were closer than that strike.
  7. Snyder's in the Mets system putting up unimpressive numbers that will keep him off even their pen. We got the only good year out of Snyder that anyone ever will.
  8. part of a championship team!!!!!!!11!1
  9. We could always sign Kyle Farnsworth and ship Bard out to the highest bidder.
  10. Because guys who have a couple years cut short by injury in the late 20's never recover or go on to become anything, right?
  11. Erik Bedard is hardly a bargain basement pitcher. He's injury prone but he's very talented indeed and has a great arm. If he can stay in the field he'll be a vastly superior option to what you could have reasonably expected from Smoltz and Penny. If I wanted bargain basement I'd go after Ben Sheets.
  12. No matter how great the fans are the team is still vulnerable to baseball entropy. Green was not our first choice for a shortstop. He wasn't even our second choice. If we'd had anything resembling good fortune this year our shortstop would have been Jed Lowrie, with Lugo as a fallback. Both of those options being ridiculously bad, hurt, or both, Green has seen a lot more time than he ever should have. This was NEVER intended. At some point you really do have to ask the question of how far you go to save a season that's already headed down the flusher, when you could make much saner moves if you punt or semi-punt and wait until the offseason.
  13. Are we really having this great big argument over whether we should have acquired Cristian Guzman? Even though the Nationals said point blank that if the Sox had claimed him they'd have pulled him off waivers? Talk about desperate. Look, in the offseason we'll ship some prospects either to Florida for Hanley, or more realistically probably to Texas for Young, or Cleveland for Peralta, both of which are vastly superior options to Guzman. Failing that, if both teams should for some incredible reason not be interested in trading an expensive and expendable shortstop, we can make a pickup on J. J. Hardy, who has a fair change to regain his stroke at Fenway. He's a dead pull RHH hitter, only 4 hits all year to right field. A similar arrangement worked wonders for Mike Lowell and his similar pull tendencies.
  14. Exactly. For pete's sake people, no matter how the season is going people need days off, and for a speedster, the first night in Texas is probably a good time.
  15. Heck of a time for Lester to not have it.
