YUP!!

David Price (Rays) has a wicked fast ball (very respectfully) and Francisco Liriano should join that ump in triple A.

I was not impressed with Liriano last fall and not impressed with him this spring. I think he needs to go. He gives up one home run then falls apart. 47 pitches in the 3rd inning, sad, very sad.

It's funny, MN pitching last year was pretty good and batting suffered a little, this year it seems the opposite.

OH the intricate nuances of this game will have us all pulling our hair out.

Liriano was a stud before his tommy john surgery...is he really healthy?

SmokinDuck · 05-31-2009, 09:06 AM

Yeah, he's healthy. He seems to start the game out good then he just loses something, focus, who knows, and then his pitches are all over the place.

Well, Tito finally shook up the Sox lineup and they scored some runs! Lester was terrific too, 12 K's. Unfortunately it was too late to get anything more than one win in the Jays series and the Evil Empire is in first place

.

On to Motor City, (at least they used to make cars there), tomorrow to try to tame the Tigers.

18 straight error less games for the Bombers (new MLB record), first place in the division a game ahead of the BlowSox, all is right in the world

Watching the wankyees suck all year is not as fun as watching them blow at the end

They can take a cue from the Mets' playbook of the last couple years.

DiceK survived 5 innings against the Tigers for his first win of the year. Sox bullpen was great as usual, though Papelbon has got to learn to bear down when not in a save situation.

Unfortunately the Evil Empire also won and they are still in first place. Sox will take care of that next week when they visit Friendly Fenway.

Beckett looked outstanding tonight. I really wanted him to get that No No as he is my idol but that 2 seam he threw to Granderson tailed right over the middle. Oh well, at least Boston won.

kelmac07 · 06-03-2009, 08:25 PM

McLouth is going to make the Braves a little stronger..HUGE pick-up for Atlanta. makes you wonder if Pittsburgh is gonna stick with Nyjer Morgan (playing great) or bring up prized prospect Andrew McCuthen.

The game was not even close, the back to back errors made it look like a game.
I hope Youk is ok?
Eck was funny, he is not reading Youks lips any more

kelmac07 · 06-04-2009, 07:50 AM

White Sox just called up Gordon Beckham...there #1 pick from last years draft. The kid is a stud, but damn, that's quick. Anyone think they are rushing him?

Bruins Fan · 06-04-2009, 10:18 AM

No doubt the white Sox must be hurting for pitching? Bringing a kid up to soon could ruin his confidence if he gets lit up it?
The other night the Red Sox faced the Tigers hot young stud pitcher Porcello, he got a welcome to the bigs

kelmac07 · 06-04-2009, 07:08 PM

But...Beckham is a shortstop!!! I might understand it if he was a pitcher.
