  1. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writers/jon_heyman/08/28/al.busts/1.html In the same article, they rank A-rod as the #1 AL disappointment. :roll: Awesome, thats only 28 other teams we have to compete with now.
  2. Just saw this on ESPN.com. This is going to absolutely kill the Sox with Manny being hurt right now as well. Hopefully he gets better. They are going to need shutouts from Beckett and Schilling and basically hope everyone comes back. They have 16 of their final 26 at home. Four of the road games are at NYY, so, I wouldn't count Boston out until Labor Day. Beckett is not good. not too likely. He's good against the Cubs....too bad the Red Sox don't have to face us
  3. great things can come from it. in the form of an online comic about a baseball chatroom. Yes, in fiction. I doubt either of us want those things to happen in real life :)
  4. Wow...www.boston.com is reporting that Ortiz was sent back to Boston with an irregular heartbeat. This heart issue caused him to spend a night in the hospital during the Yankees series a week ago. Obviously if he is home in Boston, its highly unlikely he will be able to make it back to play on the rest of the road trip. http://www.boston.com/sports/baseball/redsox/articles/2006/08/29/ortiz_sent_home_for_testing/
  5. Way to teach him a lesson Tampa.... Thank GOD Detroit and Tampa Bay don't play the rest of this season. With Delmon and Dimitri in the same zip code, good things simply can not come from it
  6. That is why I am hoping the Red Sox make a miracle run to the playoffs. It will be impossible to do anything good in the offseason with the Red Sox likely outspending everyone.
  7. I believe they said that he changed numbers the day after Neifi left. Ahh, never noticed it until today.
  8. Hey guys, how long has Will Ohman been Neifi Perez?
  9. Several former Cubs managers strongly disagree with you
  10. This is a big series for the Pirates if they are serious about overtaking the Cubs for 5th place. What are they like 4.5 back? The standard Cubs sweep will put them within serious striking distance.
  11. Speaking of that play, has anyone been seeing Jones' throws lately? The one last night looked like he tried to throw it directly on the ground. Lately the Cubs have been so bad, its comical again.
  12. Actually maybe we should buy him a ticket home since the Cubs are crawling to Pittsburgh
  13. So your saying we should sign him and watch him suck for the Cubs?
  14. There's your Sunday night game winning grand slam
  15. That was Ramirez Yes, but its a general statement that should be taken seriously
  16. How many crazy ways have we allowed runs to score in the past 2 years? -Single and a 3 base error -2 runs score on a wild pitch -2 runs score on a grounder to SS -2 runs score on a sacrifice fly -balk scores a run (game tying run) -GW run scored on a pickoff at 3B
  17. I was there :) After the game a friend of mine who was participating in a charity event at halftime, got his head shaved by Nate Jacqua. He's actually a pretty cool guy in person. I thanked him for helping to beat Chelski :)

    As ignorant as this sounds...I will not consider the offense to be acceptable until they score one touchdown. I mean they've had just about 6 quarters to score a TD
  19. For awhile, I thought the Cubs had an outside shot at 70 wins, but it looks like they have pissed away that opportunity too.
  20. Are you sure? Bennetts hit was a double to the gap. But locially speaking, yes Wilson doesn't score if hes thrown out at 2B
  21. OOC, I was only half watching the game, who else was available? Wuertz Aardsma Ohman Dempster Not exactly a murderers row of pitchers there.
  22. Cubs have now lost 6 of last 7 games...safe to say the 'hot streak' is over
