I will regard everything else Pierzynski brings to the tabe...

but he should still be batting at the bottom of the order. Pierzynski should not be getting more AB’s than guys like Thome, Dye, and Griffey.

He is...

but even if he’s rotting, he’s a better offensive player than Pierzysnki. The comments on his age have more to do with his glove than his bat.

i've been saying for a while that i thought swisher should be.

but i would also prefer junior over aj.

fuck you, that's my name!! you know why, mister? 'cause you drove a hyundai to get here tonight, I drove a eighty thousand dollar bmw. that's my name!!

Bat Griffey second...

He can actually draw a walk.

Go Indians...

Runners at 1B and 2B, 1 out. Stud hitter Jamey Carroll up to the plate.

My calendar says that our pitching has gone to donkey doo-doo and Liriano is lights-out for the Twins.

Are you fucking kidding me?

The guy has thrown 85 pitches in five innings against the worst lineup in baseball and that’s lights out?

The Royals offense is just as bad...

and they had no problem rocking the Sox pitching.

Clearly...

Alex Gordon = Jamey Carroll

on another thread I suggested

that if Richard can’t go five w/out giving up five he has no bidness being here. he’s a football dudnderhead trying to get by on athletic ability alone and he just doesn’t have the stuff, the brains or the balls to be an MLB pitcher.

by RoyEgan on Aug 3, 2008 2:25 PM CDT reply actions  

I'm glad you know so much about him.

Tell me, if he’s such a dunderhead how did he do so well in the minors?

He must have those minor league balls—if only he had major league ones.

I hate when young players make mistakes.

by Craig Grebeck on Aug 3, 2008 2:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

Yeah...

But I’m also not completely ready to write him off after one start.

evidently...

i know more about him than u.

by RoyEgan on Aug 3, 2008 2:32 PM CDT up reply actions  

So...

Did you coach him before or something?

by Craig Grebeck on Aug 3, 2008 2:34 PM CDT up reply actions  

did you shoot steroids up his butt....yo?

He was a catcher with the Orioles back in the day. Sorry looking (expletive). My brother had his card. He looked like this little kid who got left at a bus station by his parents. You know why? Because he had to catch Hoyt Wilhelms knuckle ball five (expletive) years.

Olivo got halfway to the mound and decided it wasn’t the best idea.

Olivo put his fists up and Carrasco backed up.

That's BS.

The Sox really never end up on the right side of these warnings/ejections.

And I really wish I could get the ignore feature working. I miss being able to joke about the Sox sucking.
