  1. Of course, that could describe 99% of all the MLB pitchers.
  2. Uh, so perhaps you're thinking the SOX made a mistake. Could JBJ be the next Ohtani, but can't hit?
  3. Pretty much puts JBJ in the company of JD.
  4. I wasn't happy that Bloom traded VAZ and I wasn't happy that Bloom didn't trade JD. But could some of us give Pham, McGuire and Hosmer at least a couple of weeks to demonstrate whether they're a positive or negative addition to the SOX before we s*** all over the SOX GM? I find it disappointing that a couple of posters here who don't share a certain poster's opinion and that certain poster has proven his love for the SOX over many years have decided instead to agree with the spew of a another poster, who is nothing but a troll. I also may not always agree with posters here who also love the SOX, but I sure as s*** wouldn't be inclined to agree with known trolls, who continue to haunt this board.
  5. Prospects are like flowers. Some bloom early, some bloom later, and some never bloom at all. But the fact of the matter is that nearly every MLB player was at one time a flower, er, I mean prospect.
  6. VAZ also proved today that a catcher's CERA is in direct proportion to the quality of the pitching.
  7. Too bad the SOX lost today. Would have been nice to have momentum going into KC to play 4 against the tough Royals.
  8. One thing VAZ brought to light after he was traded; nice guys don't always finish last.
  9. Just winning 2 of 3 in this series is a minor miracle.
  10. RIP Vin Scully The gold standard for baseball play-by-play.
  11. Duran Pham Devers(DH) Bogey Dugo(RF) Arroyo(3B) Dalbec McGuire Sanchez
  12. R. Hill vs Urquidy Let's go for the sweep.
  13. I should have started that post with 'supposedly.'
  14. I agree with that. Too much 'whine' in his announcing, similar to Michael Kay.
  15. Good luck with the Brewers when they'll eventually have to replace Uecker. Similar to the SOX trying to replace Remy. So far, that hasn't happened and it probably never will.
  16. I grant you OB is no Orsillo, but with my Extra Innings package I've been exposed to many game announcers when the SOX are on the road. Seriously, be happy the SOX have OB, because there's a whole lot worse out there.
  17. If I had to guess, it was probably about money. Isn't it always?
  18. Baltimore fired announcer Jon Miller because he wasn't a 'homer' enough.
  19. All NESN will say regarding not renewing Orsillo's contract is "we want to go in a new direction." Whatever the hell that means.
  20. Maybe if Bloom had added JD to the deal, we could have gotten Orsillo. Maybe not.
  21. Gallo? I hope you're referring to the wine. But, seriously, wouldn't Gallo just be JBJ, The Sequel? Sequels are usually worse than the original movie.
  22. Houston fans going home to their guns and bibles and wondering "how the hell did we lose two in a row to that bunch?"
  23. I prefer something that has better odds, like Mega Ball.
  24. That's why a person has to be crazy to be a fan-atic.
