Noj Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 A struggling Yankees ball club is bad for baseball overall. Those bastards need to get their shit together so we can all hate them properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim McG Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 Hey! Zito didn't suck...and for a second start in a row! Wow! Dodgers lose [even after the SF bullpen gave it all away...the bastards], Giants win. Sanchez vs. [the oh-so-vaunted] Billingsly tonight. We can only hope the SF bullpen can hold the lead, assuming there will be one....and assuming the SF batters can hit. Just shoot me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gould Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 I realize they had to lose sometime but Jesus Christ that was fucking annoying. Score 7 runs in the first three innings but never keep a lead because Brad Penny sucks ass. Then get into the "awful" Indian bullpen and do nothing against them at all except squeeze across one run that is immediately given back by Saito. Finally, lose it because a POS like Javier Lopez has to pitch the ninth since Penny couldn't manage even four innings, and he loses it by dropping the shuffle pass from Youkilis on what would have been out number three. FUCK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 And how appropriate that it ends on an error - they made three of them and only five of nine runs allowed were earned. F-ing pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUCK. Welcome to our world. At least you have no need to check the scores to confirm that the Nationals still have a record inferior to your beloved team. Try that one on for size. I'm waiting for the pay-per-view Brad Penny vs. Carl Pavano matchup in which fans get paid to view their "stuff". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-ing pathetic. The Red Sox need to reach a point where they say Fuck It and just go with the youth Bucholz ,Masterson, Bowden..... would they ever think of dealing Dice-K ? PR purposes dealing Dice-K would not be good especially with the Japanese market that the Sox have reached out to for Advertisement . BUT wouldn't you rather see Bucholz and Masterson in the starting rotation than Dice- K and Penny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soulstation1 Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) Why does Dan gotta go ape$hit after every Bosox loss? Even after winning 11 straight freaking games Chill out They can not win every single game News flash they might even lose 60-70 games The Tribe should have their 11th win in about 2 more weeks If he calls the Indians bullpen awful one more time we will go a few rounds Edited April 29, 2009 by Soulstation1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PR purposes dealing Dice-K would not be good especially with the Japanese market that the Sox have reached out to for Advertisement . BUT wouldn't you rather see Bucholz and Masterson in the starting rotation than Dice- K and Penny? Yes to Masterson over Penny, there's too much invested in Dice-K just to ship him out, and no reason to take away from your depth (Penny getting traded though is OK once Smoltz is back). You can't say for sure if Buchholz will perform like we hoped he was going to last season before that disaster. But the bullpen has to continue to perform, with Okajima and Saito getting better and MDC and Ramirez not falling off, before you can say Masterson can stay in the rotation permanently. For one thing, he's not doing much to save the bullpen since he seems to last 5 or 5+ innings only on a normal pitch count. To really be effective, we need at least 6 and preferably 7 out of him consistently. I'm hoping that this 7-10 day shut down of Smoltz is nothing significant. We don't have to have him by June 1 the way things are going, but we have to have him effective and healthy the rest of the way once he does come back.

Jazzmoose Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 As I mentioned earlier, I've been away from baseball since '94 or so; the only player name I recognized during a Braves game the other day was that new kid, Chipper Jones. Imagine my shock at the first close up of his face...not exactly a rookie any more. Anyways, in this new world of baseball, I have no idea who is who, so pardon this ignorant question: Is Pujols for real? Or is he just another steroid junkie pumping up his numbers with the needle?

Noj Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 Pujols is a machine. Hopefully not a roider, nothing has come out to indicate he is. Hits for average and power, plus he's clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Pujols is also very indignant at any suggestion of having juiced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 Well in the end I don't really give a shit about an indignity like 12-0 - but if anyone thinks the Red Sox can compete for anything with Josh Beckett gulping gonads every start, you got another think coming. Over his last 9 2/3 innings, he's given up 15 runs, all of them earned. And he gets the Yankees next, at the newest launching pad. So let's see - Lester has been, at best, inconsistent. Beckett flat out sucks in every start since the opener. Dice-K is on the DL. Penny has an ERA of 8. Wakefield is the ace, and the reality is that we all know he can't keep it up an entire year. And Masterson has been consistently decent. That's a fucking championship rotation? What happens if they need Smoltz to be an ace, not just a future Hall of Famer pitching in the third spot?
