Too bad we bombed you with 5 home runs foolHailing from Massachusetts, I root for two teams - the Red Sox and whoever's playing the Yankees. (got that off a T-shirt, but it's true.) At the moment, that's the Red Sox, doubly so. We finally managed to snap that losing the streak in absolutely crushing the Yanks, 14-1. It would've been nice to have some of those runs the day before, but eh, you can't win 'em all. Hopefully this is a sign of good things to come, along with the development of young pitchers Clay Buchholz and Junuchi Tazawa, who have both won and kept scoring very low in their most recent outings....with Wakefield about to come back, things are definitely looking up, if today's game is any evidence of offensive progress....
I'm a mets fan first yankees second but mets are dead this year so i feel your painok who believes in the nym curse of 2009? not only did met-for-a-month Jeff Franceour tear a ligament in his thumb, reports are the Johan Santana will need surgery on his left elbow. if it's TJ surgery, we can forget about having a good 2010 season, as well.
my god. when it rains, it pours. the whole medical staff better go. at some point, these things stop being freak accidents and the doctors and trainers must come into question.
Well Justin Miller and Merkin Valdez really fuked up this series for some reason. Oh well, I'll get over it tm or whenever the Giants start winning again.F'Real, Im in the Bay Area. I live in UC, and I was watching the game. Fucking Ryan Spillborghs (However you spell it) Mehh, could've been only down 2, but now 4!
Yeah my bad, the update came an hour later. Good deal for the Rays especially because even though Kazmir was a very good prospect they got for literally nothing, they get a few more really good prospects to add to their already loaded farm system.check your sources, cause they got him.
I don't care if we gave up 10 runs after we were up by ten, I'm just glad that we scored more than 3 runs this game. If we lost 10-1, it would be just another day as a 2009 Jays fan, but being in the game this late in the game is a blessing. And to have a lead, too! This is a really heated game.Bahahaha Blue Jays fans. 10-0 up, bottom of the fourth and now its 11-10 at the bottom of the 7th, if it wasnt for an athletic catch by Wells it was potentially a home run hit for 12-11 to us.
No matter what happens, I'm proud of the way the Rangers have fought this game ^_^.
Bahahaha Rangers fans. Loading the bases in the ninth with zero outs down a run and failing to score it's like the Royals decided to play the ninth for them.Bahahaha Blue Jays fans
I'm torn on this move. On one hand, Pap isn't happy with the move at all for some reason (probably because he feels threatenened). That'll probably cause tension and pressure for the both of them. On the other hand, the sox badly needed bullpen help ever since they traded away Masterson in the Martinez deal (still an excellent move). I'm almost positive he's just a rental, so I guess if the brass thought he could still pitch, he's gonna pitch. Paul Byrd and Wagner both came out with a chip on their respective shoulders, and I was pretty impressed with both of them. We just need pitching, since the Sox are finally hitting!Does anyone have an opinion on the Red Sox getting Billy Wagner? He seems like he could be a very solid 7th/8th inning guy to help bridge to Jonathon Papelbon. They also have Daniel Bard who throws about as hard as anyone out there, so that gives them 3 back of the bullpen guys that they can count on to get outs.
So yeah just wondering about everyones opinions on Boston getting Billy Wagner. I know last night was his first BoSox appereance, but 3 k's in the inning he pitched sort of speak for themselves.
