" i hope Sox can put this on ice in the early going"...Theo...what's wrong.. the old ticker can't take a win in the 11th hour?..LOL!!!....i know what you mean though, �games like that leave you feeling like it can get away on a single pitch..

this post lost me after Sox are..LOL!!!...hey King Okie..J/K of course..i don't know if you guys can top last night's game...you know how when one team blows another team out and the next day there is very little scoring..question..does the opposite happen after a 1-0 game?..lol!!

i like facing the jays lineup right now a lot better than when we saw them in toronto....big hurt was a sox killer for them

I sure hope you are right tulsa. I will say Dice K has had some very impressive performances this year all ready. He just needs to be a little bit more consistent. I think people are generally too harsh on this team and don't look at the whole picture. Especially with Dice K. You are corect on the 8 mil per year. People tend to think we paid him the entire 103 mil. Which we kind of did all though not all of it went to him. For 8 mil a year though we have gotten our moneys worth so far. 15 wins last year with a ws win also. Now this year the red sox are 5-0 in games he has started and he is 4-0 so someone please do explain how he has been so terrible. Actually don't because I will just get pissed at you. Lets be honest no player is perfect but our team is scraping right now and holding our own. Our best baseball yet to come we are in a great position. I honestly though we would only be .500 at the end of april or less. Now when you factor in all the sickness and injuries we have had. We had a very respectable month to start. Hopefully we can get a win streak going tonight.

Nice !

Sounds like our lad McGowan pitched all his games in the season against the Sox ;-))

Hey Theo, what are the big stories in major league this year ?

Who can power it out of the park tonight?� I'm scared of Vernon Wells.� Our guys look like they can only manage dribblers.

Thanks for the Yankee update ipot.

wasn't Rasner the Rookie who got hit on the thigh or something by a comebacker, and fractured it or something last year.

Looks like the Yankee farm raised SP's are not living up to their potential that was expected of them last year.� I think Yanks will go through a couple of years of re-building, then be back again on top, with the Sox.

Can someone tell me when either Coco or Lugo hit a ball hard over 300ft? Boy, do they both blow at the plate. I am so tired of watching those two hit..

Hey Bulldog--
make it a mile-high sandwich.

dribblers and 74 pitches on McGowan.

I call 2-0, Jays.

SOOOOOOO tired of this $#!t...

What happened to our offense?

That guy Beane must be a good stock picker.� He buys low and sells high, but never tries to win it all.� He must be like a farm system supplying talent to the teams in MLB.� I remember the great pitching that the A's seem to have a knack in developing year over year, like the big three had a few years ago with Zito, Herren & I gorget the 3rd guy.

I hear Theo & Beane are buddies.

What's going on with the Sox game.� Must be the cold weather that has put the brakes on hitting.

Good to see you around TBD.� Seems like last year all over.� Don't see CP, Liza, Lisa, Paulthai, CP John and the rest of the regulars yet.� May be once the weather warms up.

What you think about $4 gas.� I am looking at getting a motorcycle for first time to get better mileage for my 20 mile a way commuting everyday.

Read in EB that Dice would be on a pitch count.� Huh?� Recovering from sickness--what do they think, he'll be in the "zone" a la Michael Jordan with the flu?

Man, that had to fight every psi of wind resistance to get out of there...

papi

yes, we need an insurance homer, right?
keep callin' em, Big Guy!

is that Rolen of former Cards fame?� he does put on good shows...

8th inning should be Oki's inning.� 9th should be Paps.� Don't know why DiceK is still pitching.

when did Terry get a turbohook?� that's the fastest pitcher-pull Ive seen.

I think 8th should be Oki's inning.� I don't trust anyone else with a 1 run lead.

Leadoff man on base, not a good start.� Need a DP...
