  1. wow, quick hook for hill after baker left him out there too long last time.
  2. What do you think of the new album? i like it alot. i am sick of all this 'pearl jam's back' talk because i like binaural and riot act. that being said, i like this album better than both of those. i'm seeing them wednesday at the united center. hey, an extra base hit! he should probably rest for the next four games. (Won't sidetrack the thread on this) but I think that's mainly casual fans that are saying "PJ is back". Hardcore fans have always like binaural and riot act. agreed. hill w/ the hardest hit ball all day?
  3. heh, i picked up batista b/c i thought he had two starts next week...and he's throwing a no-no against the cards today.

  5. man, hill pitching and eddie singing. two of my favorite guys...how did i not go to this game???
  6. was that a little pj as they went to commercial? at least i have eddie to look forward to.
  7. he's only at 63 pitches. and he's not the first guy to walk brian giles and mike piazza. he's been tough enough to hit that the walks haven't hurt him. I think you should just go ahead and change your name from abuck to manloveforhill if it's not already taken. :lol: was what i said not accurate?
  8. that's because the people that say jones sucks are not wrong.

  10. well, going w/ snell (7 runs in 1 1/3) over hill sure is looking like it might cost me the week. damn rain in boston....
  11. son of a... bos-tex rained out again. missed 2 1/2 games of teix and blalock, no saves from pap, and, for the second straight week, beckett gets washed out of a two start week. given FL's ridiculously good starting pitching this week, i don't know how i'm even in this thing.
  12. i was expecting a reporter to ask dusty about it, and i was guessing dusty would say that he forgot piazza was back there.
  13. Who traded Albert to you? i think i did. it was a huge trade if i remember...i got tejada in return.
  14. i'd say! 37 1/3 ip, 23 h, 7 er, 5-0, 5 QS. i'm just lucky you only had five starts....
  15. no, just fair and balanced reporting. all of this negativity is bringing me down and bumming me out. Those who know and remember me from posting know i can be pretty negative, but it is getting way out of hand on this site. I mean we had a freaking poll started yesterday on Dempster's role as closer after he blows a Save for the first time in recent memory. If someone is doing their expected job (regardless if you are happy with them being there) or doing a good job, we need to post that and give them an atta boy every once in a while. Otherwise we end up looking like a strung-out bunch of lunatics. quoting fox news to show your good intentions isn't really convincing.
  16. i do, and i am waiting. have said all along that Pierre is his own worst enemy and DLee got in his head and freaked him out. He will be joining us soon though. Can you do me a favor and hold off posting Jones's numbers until you're ready to post Pierre's as well? let's just wait until he has a good four game stretch. and it will be in a new 'told ya so' thread.

  18. Well, you are entitled to your opinion. But i am not hating. I just said in the earlier 20+ pg hatefest that Jones needs a fair shake and pointed to the Boston-Renteria disaster last season. Sometimes it just takes a player 1 month to adjust to the league. One of those crazy things. But we do need to get more positive posting going in here. Need to find some diamonds in this rough. even if he completely adjusts and puts up his career average #'s for the next three years, i still wouldn't want him. also, what's the point of starting a thread to 'show' people they were wrong? do you want people to do it to you next week when jones sucks again?
  19. good grief...my opponent's about to go to 5-0, 5 QS (including probably 2 CG and a shutout). i don't know four starts tomorrow will get it done...
  20. Juan Pierre: Ball, Strike looking, Strike looking, Ball, Ball, Pierre walked. Ronny Cedeno: Cedeno sacrificed to first, Pierre to second. Todd Walker: Ball, Strike looking, Ball, Walker grounded out to shortstop, Pierre to third. Aramis Ramirez: Strike looking, Ball, Foul, Ramirez flied out to right. End of Inning (0 Runs, 0 Hits, 0 Errors) Jacque Jones: Jones reached on an infield single. Jerry Hairston Jr.: Foul, Ball (pitchout), Pickoff attempt, Jones to second on Meredith's throwing error, Hairston sacrificed to catcher, Jones to third. Neifi Perez: Foul, Perez lined out to first. Henry Blanco: Strike swinging, Foul, Blanco struck out swinging. End of Inning (0 Runs, 1 Hit, 1 Error) keep trying...it'll work some time! they say a manager only has a hand in a couple games a year. today was one of those games.
  21. and people wonder why the cubs have a hard time scoring runs...
  22. and baker single handedly costs the cubs a run. awesome job.
  23. i'm pretty sure pierre can steal on piazza 99% of the time. why the HELL do you give up an out to get him to second base right there? baker is awful.
  24. here's what i posted in the game thread...
  25. this rain in boston is killing me...no teix, blalock, or papelbon, and for the second straight week, rain could cost beckett a two start week.
