    no no no, I want ESPN to dangle off of Tebow's jock for as long as possible. It'll only make his complete failure at the next level all the more sweet

    Joe Buck's call when the Phils won the World Series was worse, as was Pat Summerall's non=call when the Patriots beat the Rams in the Super Bowl

    How is Hawk's call any different than Santo's call of Z's no-hitter last year? "YES YES YES YES YES!" vs. "OH, YES!"

    who cares that it's the Sox or Beuhrle? Perfect games are always awesome. That Wise catch was unbelievable too

    I'm pretty sure the Indians have said they aren't moving Martinez

    The Red Sox were at the point where they were willing to just dump the guy for nothing and eat the contract, so now, they at least get something, even if they likely still have to eat the contract. sure, I get that, but he's acquired two players today that he doesn't need at all

    what on earth is Epstein smoking today?
  10. Derwood
    Except that when he actually faces someone on the mound better than a cardboard cutout (as in the playoffs the last two seasons) he is inept at leading off, hitting homeruns, and pretty much anything else offensively... Soriano smells like a rose when he swings at the first two pitches of an AB. He bats .375-.400 in his CAREER when he puts the ball in play in those situations. He's a fastball hitter and does everything AGAINST the theories of what a leadoff hitter should do... He's a great stat padder, but when the game is on the line, and he has two strikes on him, he will FAIL because he refuses to adjust and play the team game. 3-28 with a solitary walk in the last two playoff series is ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW... .107/.138/.245 0HR 0RBI Now post Aramis' numbers in the last 2 postseasons hint: they're worse than Soriano's

    Fukudome has been hitting the ball HARD recently
  12. Derwood
    the Cubs aren't getting Matt Holliday
  13. Derwood
    Lugo is not Meph-approved
  14. Derwood
    by who?
  15. Derwood
    I would have to disagree. The difference between Soriano hitting a solo homer or a 3-run home can be the difference between winning and losing a close game. And if your leadoff man gets on base an extra time or two, that can be the difference in a close game, as well. Not to mention, considering our pitching, most of our games are pretty close. so batting 1st in the batting order prevents you from hitting 3 run homers?

    Strike zone was suddenly shins to chin and 3 feet wide in that at-bat

    when Jeff Baker clears the bases on you, it may be time to hang it up

    Triple Play anyone?
  20. Derwood
    No, I sure don't. Probably a good idea.......you'd need some anti-depressants

    game thread?
  22. Derwood
    Fred, do you keep statistics on how often Lou's hit & run calls work?
  23. Derwood
    well that's just awesome. WAY TO BRING YOUR BATS TO PHILLY, A-HOLES
  24. Derwood
    Cathedrals of the Game is on MLBN right now and is focusing on PNC Park. I'll be flipping back and forth I think...
  25. Derwood
    I wasn't aware of the Red Sox having a glaring need at 1B. Would the plan be to play Youk at 3rd and just give up on Lowell?
