  1. They really serve the same purpose. So Hoffs had one big game. Wards come up with some big hits. 6 of one, half a dozen of the other. I really dont see it as a make or break. Hoff probably gets Wards job next year anyway. I'm not a big Hoffpauir guy, but "one big game"? Really? He's raked wherever he has been this season, and that includes the majors. Meanwhile Ward has done nothing and has crappy career numbers to boot. Really, Daryle Ward is not a good player. He had a good season last year so everybody keeps touting his "experience" when in reality his career numbers as a PH are terrible.
  2. Why? The Twins are better than the Sox.
  3. I'm calling it right now. Mauer will at least tie the game in the 9th, maybe more. Depends on who is on base. He's going gap.
  4. "Here's Ron Gardenhiner" says Stockton
  5. Look at who Lowe faced in those 6 starts. Also, the Dodgers pitching numbers are helped by Dodger Stadium big time. They have like a mid 4's ERA on the road.
  6. Up until just now, I wasn't nervous. Now I'm all strung out. It's not really a bad nervous though. Last year before they started I had a sick feeling, this year I'm excited to see what they can do.
  7. Nope. I wouldn't call the Cubs in the playoffs this year "fun." Exciting, very nerveracking, yes. Fun, no. lol wut? The playoffs didn't even start yet. Did you watch the 2003 playoffs? Like David said, they are extremely fun once you start getting deeper and you're winning. I'll never forget 2003, and I don't mean that in a bad way.
  8. By the way, all 8 "experts" picked Philly over Milwuakee, and only one of them picked the series to go more than 4 games.
  9. i was hoping this thread was going to be about a hooker
  10. This game isn't over. The Sox bullpen has been choking away everything lately
  11. This catcher is embarassing himself on national television
  12. You're actually listening to them? I have it on ESPN so I don't have to suffer. Though if they are losing in the 9th, I just might have to change it to hear Hawk. When the Tigers are batting I turn on WGN so I don't miss Hawk's heartbroken reactions
  13. Why the hell is Floyd still in? He is on short rest and was clearly done last inning. This is dumb.
  14. Haha Hawk almost cried after that error
  15. Just walk Manny every time. 2 outs and nobody on? Walk his ass. 1 out and nobody on? Walk his ass. Men at 1st and 2nd with 2 outs? Walk his ass. Seriously, Lou can't let Manny beat us. After him they have a bunch of good-but-not-great .800ish OPS hitters and they're all young and inexperienced. Put the pressure on them and make them beat us.
  16. These times are eastern- http://mlb.mlb.com/news/press_releases/press_release.jsp?ymd=20080928&content_id=3570430&vkey=pr_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb I love it.
  17. Is anybody weatching BBTN? It's Ravech/Phillips/Olney/Kruk and they were talking about the series and were basically all over the Dodgers' junk. Olney is like "Harden was topping out at 85 last start so he's a huge question mark" and Phillips was going on and on about how the Dodgers "power pitching" would shut down the offense. Then Kruk started rambling about the Cubs losing focus or something? What the hell?
  18. I'm not syaing anything http://assets.espn.go.com/media/apphoto/a4d80d09-25cb-455d-8672-c59aa05d8626.jpg
  19. Sheets has already said he's done for this season, so you can stop with the "healthy Sheets" stuff.
  20. You might want to check Brad Penny's stats this season.
  21. God damnit Chip, I can't believe I fell for that. After all those years I should have known better.
  22. I call a Church bomb to tie it after a walk
