MLB 2005 Season Thread

[BCWWF]

Oakland needs to get out of the ALDS this year, that was rediculous the other year when they were up 2-0 on Boston and then lost. Then before that didn't they lose like three straight to the Yankees?

[Loose Cannon]

Oakland is in 1st now. haha.

It's Angles vs Oakland next too. This should help NY

[OssMan]

ZAMBRANO VS ZAMBRANO

[The Miz]

I was just thinking about how awesome the Yankee rotation would be if it were 1995 and not 2005

1. Randy Johnson: 18-2, 2.48
2. Mike Mussina: 19-9, 3.29
3. Hideo Nomo: 13-6, 2.54
4. Kevin Brown: 10-9, 3.60
5. Al Leiter: 11-11, 3.64

:'(

[BCWWF]

lol nice

[Loose Cannon]

:'( the memories

[The Miz]

The ALDS that year was excellent. Edgar had a walk-off double against Jack McDowell in game 5.

[Loose Cannon]

I remember this photo in 2001

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/baseball/mlb/2001/postseason/alcs/news/2001/10/21/game4_ap/lg_soriano_ap-01.jpg

Some 9th inning walk off by Soriano

[Loose Cannon]

but that ALDS thing did make me cry. I remember being in a car listening to the radio when it happened. And then seeing Griffey scoring later on at home from the news :nono:

[Joey Slugs]

:lol:

You know though, at least Giambi was open about his steroid usage, all the credit to him for that.

When the hell did he open up about it? The only two people to come out about Giambi's usage were the guy who leaked the grand jury story and jose canseco.

Giambi held that big press conference to apologize for "something he couldn't talk about"

[The Miz]

Yeah 2001 was the Yankees year for walk offs :lol:

Not funny? This guys laughing

http://sportsmed.starwave.com/media/mlb/2001/0928/photo/a_gonzalez_i.jpg

[Loose Cannon]

yea, I can't really say anything more about the M's in the playoffs. Kind of limited here.

[The Miz]

The Yankees arent making the playoffs in 2005 so you better get your jokes out while you can

[DaveWadding]

Yeah 2001 was the Yankees year for walk offs :lol:

Not funny? This guys laughing

And we're still celebrating, even though we suck SO MUCH ASS.

[BCWWF]

You don't have to be picky about it, everybody knows what he meant.

Everybody else is flat out denying it, and from what I gather everybody believes the excuses. "Latin players can't read bottles" "I didn't know I took it" shit like that, if steroids are such a problem then why are all the people getting caught the ones doing them unintentionally? Giambi didn't make up some bullshit about taking the wrong supplement or anything, and Scot likes that in a man. I'll go along with him.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>LOL, in just 6 games with Triple-A Pawtucket, Mark Bellhorn has a .115 AVG and 9 K's.....Sox would be retarded if they start him over Graffanino or Cora</font>

[The Miz]

The key is 6 games. They can leave him in Pawtucket for about 20 more days before they have to cut him. If he's still hitting below Mendoza then than he's gone but I doubt that will happen. Bellhorn is obviously more talented than Graffanino and Cora but at this point they will make a better contrubtion. But Bellhorn is 30 now and if he isn't getting his usual OBP numbers no one will want him

[Londoner]

Can anybody be bothered to explain the rules of baseball to me?I tried watching on channel 5 last night and got too confused to be bothered with it.

[Londoner]

And how many games do they play a season? Wait, wtf am i doing asking about baseball..

[The Miz]

162 games over 6 months

[Londoner]

Holy shit. 162 games?How do they have enough time for that amount?And how do they stay fit?Oh yeah that's it, steroids!

[Loose Cannon]

yea, every player takes steroids.

[Londoner]

I wouldn't doubt that atleast half of them do. But seriously, do they play a game every day or something?162 games is alot to fit in 6 months.

[The Miz]

They play every day, 2 or 3 off days a month

[The Outlaw]

I wouldn't doubt that atleast half of them do. But seriously, do they play a game every day or something?162 games is alot to fit in 6 months.

You are smart.

Usually Mondays are days off. Not always, but yeah...

He's the man.

Pretty much a guaranteed spot on the Sportscenter top 10</font> :eek:

[RoXer]

[The Miz]

Too bad the Angels still aren't very good

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

LOL you fucking see that kid that fell into the net at Yankee Stadium? hahaha he fell from the upperdeck

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

[Zen v.W.o.]

Too bad the Angels still aren't very good


Best team in the AL, dont care what anyone else says, cuz I am correct.

[BCWWF]

Kenny Rogers suspension shortened to 13 games by an arbitrator. I skimmed through the article, but I agree with what Selig said.


Said Selig: "I strongly disagree with arbitrator Das' decision today. It sends the wrong message to every one of our constituents: the fans, the media, and our players."


I don't know what would warrant shortening the suspension, and to make matters worse I bet The Miz is pissed off now too.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I am sick of hearing about it honestly. Also Bud Selig is never right - lets get serious haha

[The Miz]

Best team in the AL, dont care what anyone else says, cuz I am correct.

No. Their starters overachieved mightily the first few months and are now starting to pitch as good as they are. Colon is good yes, but very erratic and gets shelled more than most aces. Their offense is very, very overrated. Vlad is excellent but past that it's very shaky. You never what you will get from Anderson and Erstad; and Finley flat out sucks, period. He's done. They don't know who is going to DH. They don't know who is going to play CF. They have way too many question marks right now to be considered an AL favorite. The Red Sox, A's, and White Sox are all clearly better right now. They have a mental advantage over Oakland and Chicagi will probably choke in the playoffs but if they face Boston at all they are done, 4 games at most.

[The Miz]

Also I could care less about Kenny Rogers, the additon of him turns the Rangers pitching from awful to very very bad. The Rangers aren't contenders anymore (well they never were but people get boners over their home run hitting) so it doesn't matter.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Renteria made 2 more errors tonight but came through with the game winning hit. I don't know what his deal is in the field, my brother brought up Knublock (sp?) :| :| I hope not..

[Londoner]

You are smart.


I know.

[YOUR Hero]

I hope the first pitch Kenny Rogers pitches is hit straight up the middle and hits him in the head, ala Matt Clement. That way, I would know the Karma machine isn't broken.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>AGFDNGJDGDSGNJLGNF @ that play David Wright just made :eek:

Pretty much a guaranteed spot on the Sportscenter top 10</font> :eek:

<font color=goldenrod>Yeah.......it made #1

If you haven't seen it yet, I'm pretty sure there's a vid on Mets.com or MLB.com of it, I'm still like :eek: just seeing it</font>

[The Miz]

Felix Hernandez is the greatest pitcher in the history of the world

[BCWWF]

The Twins are just awful too though. Its stupid because coming into this season, they were supposed to be the best team yet. Two ace pitchers, no real holes in the batting order, all that. Even into midseason they were standing strong, our record was better then last years up even until near the all-star break. The whole breakdown of this team was mental, the White Sox were so far ahead, everybody even here gave them wildcard at best chances, and confidence fizzled. Once Morneau cooled off it was basically over, and Johan was pretty much a choke after about a month into the season.

Thats not trying to give an excuse for Hernandez though, the Twins obviously still have a potent enough lineup to beat the average rookie pitcher, but he completely shut them down. He deserves the credit up to this point.

[The Miz]

The Twins suck major penis, but there's nothing else to get excited about up here.

Felix = Bartolo Colon, except Felix is not a huge ugly bastard.

[BCWWF]

The Twins have to buy a veteran for next year. Losing Corey Koskie shouldn't be that detremental, he was like a 270 hitter with 20 homers and 30 missed games. He was simply a locker room presence, but his absense seems to be the biggest reason for our collapse.

Jacque Jones is basically not coming back, plain and simple. He was going to be traded before last year until the outfield prospect who was to take his place ruined his knee for the year. Now he is going to walk as a free agent and Torii and Shannon will be the only players with experience. If we don't sign a good shortstop, thirdbaseman, or right fielder, things aren't going to get any better next year. Damn.

[The Miz]

Sox and Tigers are teams to beat in the central in '06 IMO. That is if the Tigers can get any pitching past Bonderman

[BCWWF]

Yeah Bonderman has been pretty sick, but don't forget about Cleveland either

[BCWWF]

Manny is so rediculous, two men on and of course he jacks it

[The Miz]

LMAO @ another Angel pitcher throwing a WP with a man on 3rd. What a bunch of fucking choke-artists. Talking about throwing a lead out the window. Best team in the AL my ass

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

MANNY ISNT CLUTCH

[YOUR Hero]

Felix Hernandez is the greatest pitcher in the history of the world

LOL, but yeah, he looked awesome the other night. I hope he's the real deal. Seattle needs it.

[The Miz]

LMFAO @ K-Rod.

Angels = best team in AL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The Miz]

Still dieing over here, I hope you guys watch Baseball Tonight. Bottom 9th of a 4-4 game with the winning run on 3rd, K-Rod throws a ball and is pissed at the call. To show frustration he stabs his glove at the ball on Molina's throwback, misses it, and Kendall scores. LOL

Angels = best team in AL

[RoXer]

Yeah, they really THREW away the game.

But hey, a win is a win.

A'SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSssssss

[Joey Slugs]

Best team in the AL, dont care what anyone else says, cuz I am correct.

the best team has the best record. that would be the White Sox.

[Joey Slugs]

Sox and Tigers are teams to beat in the central in '06 IMO. That is if the Tigers can get any pitching past Bonderman

as long as the sox keep this team together.. we'll be good for a few years to come.

[RoXer]

Remember when the A's took 5 out of 6 from the White Sox

[The Miz]

the best team has the best record. that would be the White Sox.

The best team are the champions until proven otherwise. The White Sox have yet to accomplish anything. Winning alot of regular season games is nice but no one has dethroned Boston yet

[The Miz]

BTW, Chicago's record against the 3 other AL playoff teams if the season ended today is 8-12.

[YOUR Hero]

The best team are the champions until proven otherwise. The White Sox have yet to accomplish anything. Winning alot of regular season games is nice but no one has dethroned Boston yet

Travis knows all too well about great regular season records and what they really mean.:-\

[The Miz]

HAR HAR

[The Miz]

Although they do remind me alot of the 2001 Mariners, except we beat good teams instead of beating up the AL Central like a bunch of big bullies

[Dragon]

Wow, pretty brutal head first collision between Cameron and Beltran. Cameron was taken off the field on a stretcher.

[Gertner]

Jays are making their run. Down go the Tigers

[YOUR Hero]

HAR HAR

No man, you got it all wrong. Don't be fogetting that I consider the M's my second fav. team (3rd during their run due to the Expos)

[YOUR Hero]

Yeah that collision with Beltran and Cameron, ouch. both doing headfirst dives for the ball and smashing into each other. Like a car wreck. Big Vito, I blame you. You and your bad karma.

[OssMan]

Oh what the fuck gay ass Cameron broke like 8 bones :( not gonna see him play

[The Miz]

BTW, Chicago's record against the 3 other AL playoff teams if the season ended today is 8-12.

*8-13

[BCWWF]

Wow, just turned to FSN and Johan has a shutout with two outs in the ninth. Kotsay got on, Crosby walked, now Chavez is up.

[BCWWF]

LEWWWWWWWWWW

[BCWWF]

Three hitter, 9 strikeouts, Cy Young? Lol, please!

[The Miz]

Men on 2nd and 3rd for M's againt the Angels, Fat ass Donnelly on the mound, wild pitch here we come!

[BCWWF]

Random question: How come Donnely isn't on MVP?

Also, Haren is such a stud too. Overshadowed by Johan tonight, but he went nine innings with one earned run, three hits, two walks, and four strike outs. It would be kind of nice to see the A's finally win in the playoffs, if they can keep their players they will be insane next year.

[The Miz]

The only player they're in danger of losing is Zito and he wants to stay. They'll be back.

[OssMan]

Mike Cameron: Next Wally Pipp

[BCWWF]

Wow, has anybody seen the new jumbotron at Turner? The Braves are on Fox now, but look at it

http://www.scamcity.co.uk/journal/?p=764

[OssMan]

yeah didn't they have it last night, stupid braves

[The Outlaw]

HOT :cool:

[The Miz]

Palmeiro is finally playing today. I hope McGowan K's him at least 3 times

[YOUR Hero]

I don't know why they didn't put Palmeiro into the first game of the series against the Jays when the Jays were up 12-0

[The Miz]

The Giants released Kirk Reuter, go get him Cashman!

[MoRcHeEbA]

lol @ the welcome back cheater sign in Baltimore.

[RoXer]

Reuter? That might be a good pickup for the D-Backs. They need anything right now. If its not starting, then its the bullpen and vice versa.

Vasquez gave up 9 runs today. Bruney came in to relieve, didn't do too much either.

[The Outlaw]

lol @ the welcome back cheater sign in Baltimore.

LIKE SO:

Hey what was the song they played at Braves after someone hit a home run, post fifth inning I think

[OssMan]

Here after Kelly Johnsons homerun, http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/multimedia/tp_archive.jsp?c_id=atl

[Rain Man]

Philadelphia's getting the Wildcard

[The Miz]

Yeah so Schilling is a really shitty closer. Like Arthur Rhodes-bad.

[Boomer]

I love both songs the Braves play after huge hits. I would put them on my iPod if I could find them.

[OssMan]

Sugar Hill Gang - Apache

[YOUR Hero]

Why the hell are they still using Schilling as a closer anyway?

[The Outlaw]

I love both songs the Braves play after huge hits. I would put them on my iPod if I could find them.

JUMP ON IT

[YOUR Hero]

LOL, nice defence there, Manny. Too bad Erstad could have turned that into an inside the park HR

[YOUR Hero]

Wakefield just took of shot off his ankle. Ahahaha, although I think Wakefield is an alright person, I love it for the fact it's the Bosox. Go Jays!

[BCWWF]

3.5 games back bitches. Sweep of the god damn mother fucking overrated White Sox. The A's are 4-6 in their last 10. Johan and Radke are back to form. Lew Ford is clutch again. Joe Mauer is more of a ladies man then your hometown hero. Hope has temporarily returned to Twinsville.

A Twins-Cardinals World Series would be fucking unbelievable (basically everybody at school is from St. Louis) but lets not get too ahead of ourselves. One game at a time.

[The Miz]

Not gonna happen. 4 team race now, NYY, OAK, LAA, CLE.

[YOUR Hero]

JAYSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[BCWWF]

What? How are the Twins out of it being only three games back and having just won 6 of 7 games against the White Sox and A's?

[The Miz]

Who are both in incredible slumps. Call me when they beat a good team playing well

[The Miz]

By the way, Richard Sexson > the Twins.

Haha remember that time someone was talking about wasted money and you posted a picture of him? He currently has 32 homers and 90 rbi to go along with an OPS over .900. The Twins sure could use him, considering their current lineup consists of Joe Mauer, Shannon Stewart, and seven bums.

[VonErich Lives]

Damn, I really wanted them to go 0-August!

[Nervous Ferret]

lol

[VonErich Lives]

Schillings back in the starting rotation.

Timlin is the closer for now.

Foulke had a simulated game, 2nd or 3rd pitch Trot Nixon hit, hit Foulke in the arm, he's ok and I think has another simulated game this week.

He doesn't want any rehab in the minors, but the Sox always send a pitcher their first of the DL. It's possible with him being a closer they won't.

I still think next year you'll see Foulke as a starter.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Schilling vs the Royals on Thrusday

[Loose Cannon]

fuck.

[RoXer]

STFUUUUUUUUUUU

[Loose Cannon]

what the hell am I saying fuck for. Yanks are half a game back now

[CNM]

Thank God for the Royals. The only team keeping the Rocks from being the worst team in baseball.

[BCWWF]

The A's are slipping

[BCWWF]

So spending millions of dollars on a huge bat so that your team can rot in the cellar is a good decision? You got me.

[The Miz]

If the Kansas City Royals sign a huge bat this off-season, will they be a playoff contender? Rockies? Pirates?

The Mariners were very bad in 2004. Very, very bad. So bad that no matter who they brought in - even if it was Lee, Pujols, or ARod - they would still be very bad in 2005. This team lost 99 games last year, they will not lose that many this year. Had they not signed Sexson, they would've lost more.

The Mariners are not a team that was one piece away from being a contender. They were, and still are, several piece away from being a contender. Sexson was one piece and a step in the right direction. He is one of the premier power hitters in the AL and has met everyone's expectations.

If you hadn't noticed Seattle has the best pitching prospect in the game as well as a plethora of good young talent. Felix Hernandez, Mike Morse, Jeremy Reed, Jamal Strong and Yuni Betancourt all have bright futures. People love to rag Beltre but people forget he has played in the NL with the same organization since he was 16. He will never hit 48 homers again but he can still be very good. He is still only 26.

Sexson is the least of our problems.

[The Miz]

I doubt they'll make the playoffs if their moron manager doesn't shift that lineup. Beane also needs to bring up Daric Barton and wipe Scott Hatteberg and Bobby Kielty from existence.

[Innovator]

A's are gonna choke

[The Miz]

Thanks for your insight

[YOUR Hero]

Bobby Kielty, Jays traded him to the A's. Forget what they got...

[The Miz]

Ted Lilly, who wasn't that good so it makes me hate Kielty a little less that they didn't really give up anything. Kielty would be ok if he would stop switch hitting, he is the worst left handed hitter of all time.

[The Miz]

Also if I remember correctly the Jays traded Shannon Stewart to the Twins for Kielty straight up, talk about trade-rape

[YOUR Hero]

I think the Jays gopt a pitching prospect, but I forget. Stewart was always getting hurt and seemed to have lost his ambition in Toronto. He had to be moved.

[YOUR Hero]

Also Lilly has been 'ok' on the Jays. Better than Kielty or Stewart would be.

[BCWWF]

Francisco Lariano

[YOUR Hero]

God damned Jays. They get back into the playoff hunt and then get swept by the Tigers. So much for the 4 game series being worth a damn. 15-0 Tigers right now.

[The Outlaw]

Ouch.

[The Miz]

Why cant they beat bad teams?

[Joey Slugs]

FUCK RANDY JOHNSON.

Back-to-back-to-back HRS, two base hits, then a 3R HR.

Couldn't of happened to a better man.

[VonErich Lives]

It's funny, once the Red Sox knew Perdo was gone, everyone wanted Randy and/or Pavano....

Guess sometimes it works out not getting what you want.

[VonErich Lives]

I don't know what suprised me more...

Renteria's first HR in over 200 AB
OR
David Ortiz butting onto base with the bases empty.

He keeps saying he was going to do in cause of the "shift" and he did... LMFAO.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Went to the Mets game today...strangely, the biggest highlight was riding in the elevator with Keith Hernandez on the way to the Diamond Club

Can't remember the last time I've booed so much in a game (most of the booing coming in the first inning)

Though it was cool with Mike Jacobs...first big league game, AB, hit, pinch hit, HR, and first 3 RBIs</font> :cool:

I don't get why more lefty power hitters don't do it. They're giving you first base.

[BCWWF]

Went to the Mets game today...strangely, the biggest highlight was riding in the elevator with Keith Hernandez on the way to the Diamond Club


Did he spit on you :p?

[BCWWF]

Johan and Nathan combine for a three hit shutout, Jacque Jones home run is only hit for Twins in 1-0 victory over the White Sox.

I can't believe ESPN didn't pick this game up, Johan vs. Garcia is about as good of a pitching matchup as you can get right now in the AL.

[OssMan]

Nice, Reyes is on fire. He's getting his deep swing back, been hitting them like 400 feet in the past three games.

From the article:


Bradley accused the media of coming to his locker first Tuesday because he is black. Kent had not yet arrived at his locker

Kent said. "If you think that I've got a problem with African-Americans, then go talk to Dusty Baker. Go talk to Dave Winfield, who took me under his wing. Go talk to Joe Carter - all the guys that I idolized in this game and all the veteran players who taught me how to play this game.LOL

[OssMan]

I hope for Carl Crawford triples title

[The Miz]

What happens when Moron Ken Macha makes 2 or 3 little tweaks that the Miz has eben suggesting for weeks?

Mark Ellis leading off: 1-3 HR
Adam Melhuse in the lineup: 3-3, double
Jason Kendall's sub-.650 ops wiped from existence

Whenever he makes a lineup change after an offensive drought, everyone on the team plays better. Crosby, Kotsay, and Chavez have all homered tonight.

9-0 Oakland. The Miz for AL Manager of the Year.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Fucking Red Sox lost it in extras

Manny got another RBI though

Three players from the Mets tonight were one hit each from hitting the cycle.

Orioles' Ponson charged with drunken driving

BALTIMORE (AP) - Sidney Ponson (http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/player/84932) was arrested early Thursday on a drunken-driving charge, the latest legal problem for the Baltimore Orioles (http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/team/71587) pitcher.

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/4808108

[OssMan]

Mike Jacobs: 2 HR, 2B, 1B, 4 RBI. (Four HR in four games)
Jose Reyes: HR, 3B, 1B, 4 RBI.
David Wright: 2 HR, 2B, 1B, 2 RBI.

Reyes is hitting like crazy. Like three home runs in his last six games or something.

Last time a team won two consecutive games on the road by 13 or more runs was 1936 Yankees :cool:

[OssMan]

LOL Sidney Ponson wasn't he like Kerry Collins, there was a big ramjam about him coming back from drinking and he sucks.

[The Miz]

Sidney Ponson is possibly the laziest player in MLB. It's too bad because he's actually talented.

http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/4806414

So, is he wrong?

I want to know why he isn't charged with lying to congress.

Strip his records, charge him with lying to congress, refund tickets to everyone who paid to see him break the record and while we're at it, take away his "little blue friend".

and yeah, if it comes out true about Clemens and Damon I'd feel the same way.

this new testing does punish players, but doesn't stop it, doesn't stop from Baltimore or other teams with guys on roids winning games to hurt teams like NYY and BOS.

Here's one, if Giambi never did roids, he'd probably not have gone to the NYY and the Sox might have won the WS a years sooner....

That all being said, if MLB as a whole wants to vote and a majority want to take roids, I really could care less. It only harms yourself, if you want to harm yourself for our entertanement who am I to argue? It's kinda like I never understood suicide being a crime.

[The Miz]

I want to know why he isn't charged with lying to congress.

Strip his records, charge him with lying to congress, refund tickets to everyone who paid to see him break the record and while we're at it, take away his "little blue friend".

and yeah, if it comes out true about Clemens and Damon I'd feel the same way.

this new testing does punish players, but doesn't stop it, doesn't stop from Baltimore or other teams with guys on roids winning games to hurt teams like NYY and BOS.

Here's one, if Giambi never did roids, he'd probably not have gone to the NYY and the Sox might have won the WS a years sooner....

That all being said, if MLB as a whole wants to vote and a majority want to take roids, I really could care less. It only harms yourself, if you want to harm yourself for our entertanement who am I to argue? It's kinda like I never understood suicide being a crime.


Blah blah blah... The thing is, Schilling's job is to pitch, not judge.

[YOUR Hero]

Why is that nice?

Because he's a sack of shit

[Loose Cannon]

LOL

Anyway, these next 9 games are huge for the Yanks. Playing the Royals, M's and then the A's. Don't blow it pitching :mad:

[VonErich Lives]

Blah blah blah... The thing is, Schilling's job is to pitch, not judge.


Ok, so if you're an athlete you're not allowed opinions... yeah, that makes sense. :roll:

[VonErich Lives]

Because he's a sack of shit

So, where does the deep hatred of Schilling come from? Did he kick your dog or something?

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Yea hes a huge sack of shit, he only pitched in the ALCS and World Series with a fucked up ankle.

Its all good though, Red Sox > Your favorite team

[DaveWadding]

So, where does the deep hatred of Schilling come from? Did he kick your dog or something?

I think the bitterness comes from Schill not helping either of their teams win a WS. :shifty:

[BCWWF]

Come on, I could put a marker on my ankle too and I still wouldn't support Bush.

[The Miz]

Why is that nice?

He's an asshole as well as somebody who should just retire. He's done.

[VonErich Lives]

He's an asshole as well as somebody who should just retire. He's done.

Why? Because he's had some trouble finding his spots coming off injury and missing most of spring training?

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

He's an asshole as well as somebody who should just retire. He's done.
Maybe he is "done" but I doubt it. I still don't think he is 100% from his injury though. I don't see how a guy can go from being lights out last night to "all done" this year.

[The Miz]

I dont have any reason to believe he'll come back fully from this injury. Unless he starts hanging out in the bathroom with his buddy Raffy.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I think he'll be back, probably not this season but next season I think he should be alright. Also I don't know if I'd call Raffy his buddy since Schilling just said on the radio that Raffy is a scumbag and his records should be erased.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Also was just reading some shit in the paper. Red Sox got voted as one of the top farm systems in the MLB for this season. They got a ton of prospects - plus one of the best rookies in the draft. Sox could be realllllll serious for the next few years. Kinda reminds me of when the Yankees had all the farm guys come up + the big payroll.

[The Miz]

I think he'll be back, probably not this season but next season I think he should be alright. Also I don't know if I'd call Raffy his buddy since Schilling just said on the radio that Raffy is a scumbag and his records should be erased.

Uhhh who did the voting? Bob Ryan? Baseball America is about the best source for prospects and minor league stuff around, they rank Boston 21st.

[The Miz]

Roy Halladay is out for the season. I really hope a White Sock doesn't win it, especially since Johan is much better than both of them

[BCWWF]

Speaking of farm systems: Francisco Lariano, Scott Baker, J.D. Durbin, Glen Perkins, Boof Bonser, Jason Kubel, Matt Moses, Denard Span, Toby Gardenhire.

[Adder]

Ok, so if you're an athlete you're not allowed opinions... yeah, that makes sense. :roll:

Personal attacks are more than opinions. I agree with Hero and Miz. He stepped over the line.

[Joey Slugs]

Roy Halladay is out for the season. I really hope a White Sock doesn't win it, especially since Johan is much better than both of them

Mark Buehrle: 14-6, 2.99
Jon Garland: 16-7, 3.28
Johan Santana: 13-6, 3.22

Stats-wise, looks like the "Socks" have him beat.

Mark might be one of the best LHP in the game right now, and is working on his Cy Young Award this year.

[The Miz]

You used the win stat in your argument so I won't even bother.

[Loose Cannon]

lol yea. You have to look at all the stats and all the situations for these single season awards. Maybe for all-time, it's ok, but not for single season.

[BCWWF]

If Johan had some strike outs he might have a shot :|

[RoXer]

Royals are "falling" apart.

[Loose Cannon]

lol.

[VonErich Lives]

Personal attacks are more than opinions. I agree with Hero and Miz. He stepped over the line.


There is a difference between a personal attack and an opionion.

In this case, it's an opinion. Every MLB player is being asked it, heck they asked Eck and Rice about it yesterday and Rice kinda poltely doged it, Eck took it. Basiclly he said the first "test" is about 2yrs when Mac comes up for vote and a it's going to be real uncomfortable if Mac gets voted it because the other HOF members wont be happy about it.

That all being said, what did Schilling say that was wrong? Raffy cheated, lied about it and then cheated again. Why not take away his records?

[VonErich Lives]

You used the win stat in your argument so I won't even bother.


What, you mean the pitchers with the most wins isn't the best? :roll:

(yes, I'm agreeing with you).

A pitcher can throw 1 hit, 1 run games and if his team can't hit the ball he gets a loss. W/L isn't a good judge of who a good SP is.

ERA, K's, K/W ratio, ERA, Bavg-against... those are pitching stats.

[YOUR Hero]

He, Shilling, went so far as to call Raffy a scumbag. That type of 'opinion' way too far. And it's not like it's the first instance of Schilling getting on the high horse. Fuck him, hope he catches AIDS from a crack whore so we can all point and laugh as we judge him.

[The Miz]

Let's look at some pitching stats that mean something, shall we?

Strikeouts
MB: 115
JS: 189

WHIP
MB: 1.16
JS: 1.01

Batting average allowed
MB: .259
JS: .220

OPS allowed
MB: .650
JS: .612

Strikeout-to-walk ratio
MB: 3.71
JS: 5.73

Since I know you will bring up ERA, 2.99 and 3.22 is not that much of a difference, especially with 8 starts remaining for both of them.

[BCWWF]

To be honest I am shocked that Johan is back in the Cy Young contention

[VonErich Lives]

He, Shilling, went so far as to call Raffy a scumbag. That type of 'opinion' way too far. And it's not like it's the first instance of Schilling getting on the high horse. Fuck him, hope he catches AIDS from a crack whore so we can all point and laugh as we judge him.

Hero, you're way over reacting.

You'd think this guy (schilling) did something to you personally.

He gave his opinion on a subject, a subject a lot of people are being asked about. Yeah, maybe calling him a "scumbag" was too far, maybe it wasn't, if that's how he feels, why not? You act like the issues with Palmerio is borderline or something. It's a cut and dry case, the guy lied to his fans, his teammates, the league and lied under oath to the US Congress. Maybe that doesn't make him a scumbag in your book, maybe his records should stand and he earned his place in cooperstown and you'll be there to cheer on his speach if he gets in, but that doesn't mean Schilling should catch aids, that's a really stupid thing to say in all honesty.

Let's review, you're wising a deadly disease on a person for giving his opinion of a person who lied, cheated and broke the law... sounds like you have your morals a little backwards on this one.

[YOUR Hero]

<h1>YOU WON'T CHANGE MY MIND, VEL</h1>

[YOUR Hero]

Oh, and fuck Raffy's records too.

[VonErich Lives]

<h1>YOU WON'T CHANGE MY MIND, VEL</h1>


So, just so I'm clear, you're wishing a deadly disease on someone because he's giving his opinion?

Anyone else on or should I say "not on" you're death wish list?

[YOUR Hero]

Just be careful.

http://www.voodoodevils.com/images/voodoo%20doll.jpg

[VonErich Lives]

Let me guess, you got drunk one night, starting playing with the voo-doo doll and next morning you had broken ribs and didn't know why...

[BCWWF]

I just don't hold VEL credible on this, because I think that if it was somebody outside of Boston he and Stima wouldn't have quite the strong opinion.

Anyway, Jacque Jones is the new David Ortiz :rant:

[VonErich Lives]

Nope, if this had all happened to schill (tesitify then get caught with roids in his system, roids that can ONLY be injected) I'd would throw away anything I own that said WS series champs.

[VonErich Lives]

I just don't hold VEL credible on this, because I think that if it was somebody outside of Boston he and Stima wouldn't have quite the strong opinion.

Also, I'm confused about being "credible"???

Did Ralphie not testify and then test positive after saying "No Sir, not me"?

[BCWWF]

Thats not what I am talking about. I am talking about you guys defending Schillings comments. I'm just saying that if it were say Randy Johnson making the same comments you wouldn't have such a strong opinion. Me personally, I'm not a huge fan of Schilling, but I don't really care what he said, but that doesn't neccessarily make it right.

[VonErich Lives]

Actually, yeah. If Randy Johnson said exactly what Schilling said about Ralphie and Hero said he wished he got AIDS I'd go at it the same way.

and, if it was schill who got caught on roids and someone else who called him a Scumbag I'd feel the same way.

[OssMan]

Ralphie

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Uhhh who did the voting? Bob Ryan? Baseball America is about the best source for prospects and minor league stuff around, they rank Boston 21st.
I find that hard to believe that the Sox would be that low. Well I guess maybe overall, but they have a pretty good prospect coming up at couple different positions in the field plus a couple of pitchers. Plus their Double A team is in 1st place.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

also LOL@ getting upset about Schilling calling somebody a Scumbag. What is the big deal? He pretty much is, he got infront of Congress waived his finger said "NO I never used steriods. PERIOD" and then got caught doing it. That seems like a pretty big scumbag move to me.

[YOUR Hero]

I'm not upset, Stima.
Just because I don't like the guy's holier than thou attitude, doesn't mean I'm sitting here crying. In the grand scheme of things, it means NOTHING to me. However, why not post my thoughts on it?

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I didn't think you were crying over it. I didn't think you really upset over this, and losing sleep over it or something. I just think your thoughts on it are kinda funny so I posted mine. Like it or not Schilling was the only one who came out of the Congress meeting not looking like an idiot, so maybe he should have a 'better then you' attitude in that respect.

[YOUR Hero]

If this was his one and only judgement on someone, no biggie. He tends to open his mouth on a variety of thngs. Same thing with actors. I hate that shit.

[YOUR Hero]

Also, if anyone thinks I really wish AIDS on him (VEL) then they're an idiot (VEL)

[The Miz]

I just don't like how Schilling acts like anyone cares what he thinks about Palmeiro. Is he the authority on steroids? No one outside of Massachusetts cares what a washed up Everquest geek who can't get out Royals hitters thinks about steroids.

[BCWWF]

Well obviously people in Boston do

[YOUR Hero]

no one outside of Massachusetts cares

[BCWWF]

I just reread the comments, and VEL you keep going off on things I'm not saying. What I'm saying has nothing to do with what Hero said. You and Stima34 are defending Schilling to the grave, and the fact that he was instrumental in your World Series championship obviously helps you form an opinion to some extent.

Its not something to get offended about, you don't have to deny that you have a bias towards your hometown players. A lot of people attack Randy Moss, but I always defend him, its the same thing.

[VonErich Lives]

Also, if anyone thinks I really wish AIDS on him (VEL) then they're an idiot (VEL)


Nope, didn't think that, but that is what you said and did seem out of line, or you were drinking before noon again!

[VonErich Lives]

I just don't like how Schilling acts like anyone cares what he thinks about Palmeiro. Is he the authority on steroids? No one outside of Massachusetts cares what a washed up Everquest geek who can't get out Royals hitters thinks about steroids.

See, I can't fault him for giving his opinion, simply because someone asked him the question.

Hero, the difference typically between athletes and actors is Actors release statements to give their opinions (See: Sean Penn) where an athlete 99% of the time is responding to question.

So, Miz, if no one cares, why do people ask? Why does ESPN/Fox/CNNSI etc, run these things nationally?

I just reread the comments, and VEL you keep going off on things I'm not saying. What I'm saying has nothing to do with what Hero said.

1) That was the point you jumped in. Hence that's why it seemed like that's what you were saying.

2) I'm not offended, you're just 100% wrong, this has NOTHING to do with it being schilling for me. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and if it had been Curt, Randy Johnson, or anyone I would be ok with it. Also since a player doesn't say something like that unless someone asks their opinion.

Heck, I even felt Randy Johnson was ok telling those reporters he didn't want to be photo graphed, however the way he did it was really stupid.

So BCWWF, my "defense of schilling" has very little to do with Schilling or being a "homer" has more to do with players answering questions and "Ralphie" being a scum bag.

[VonErich Lives]

So, ESPN "Outside the lines" talked today about Roids and the effects on Little League.

They had Dante Bichette and his kid, Dante talked how he knew who was on, as an athlete you could tell. He talked how from day one he would tell his son "that guy hit that home run because he's on steroids, I don't want you to ever do those" and his kid used to say "Daddy, is that man on Asteroids".

They show'd another kid, when the little leaguers did the "who their favorite player is" said "Ralphie" and did the whole finger point/quote from when Ralphie was in front of congress, the kids also said that wasn't his fav player.

Talked to another kid who last year would say Sosa but now Derek Lee, because between the corked bat and the roids aligations he doesn't trust his "hero".

Plus a kid who Giambi was his fav player.

Just found it interesting seeing how kids see it.

The question is, how will they feel in 5-10yrs when they have a college scout or a pro scout looking at them.

[The Miz]

Hero and other Canadians who still think for some reason the AL rookie of the year is Gustavo Chacin, I'd like to hear why he is any better than fellow rookie Joe Blanton.

Chacin - 3.62 ERA, 1.41 WHIP, .270 BA against, 5.04 ERA in August
Blanton - 3.61 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, .238 BA against, 0.98 ERA in August

[The Miz]

LOL, Roxer and Wadding or any other Dbacks fan should appreciate this. Check out 2005 home runs and Shawn Green Challenge. Classic

http://www.shawngreenstinks.com/

[Loose Cannon]

6/10 verse Zack Greinke. Yeah, Shawn had a field day against this clown that was throwing BP as his pitching line of 6/10/2005 would indicate.


ROFL

[The Miz]

6/30 verse Noah Lowery. In one of the most memorable pinch hit home runs of the baseball season, Shawn Green came off the bench to launch a solo shot off of Noah Lowery in the 5th inning to ruin Lowery's shut out and cut the Dback deficit to 9-1.

[The Outlaw]

ROFLLL

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I am not defending Schilling to the grave here BCWWF haha - All I said was I don't think he is done, and I don't see the big deal about him calling Palmerio a scumbag.

All he did was go on WEEI, a radio station in Boston, and voice his opinion on Palmerio. I don't think he was really intrested who cared what he thought, the radio host asked him a question and he answered it. Now I can see where in other cases where Schilling has too much, or been too vocal or whatever. Not in this case though.

[RP]

I think Schilling should probably worry about his pitching a little more and worry about Palmerieo a little less.

[The Miz]

But he looked fantabulous against perennial MVP candidates Angel Berroa and Mark Teahen

[VonErich Lives]

I think Schilling should probably worry about his pitching a little more and worry about Palmerieo a little less.

:roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

I think you should stick to "Colts Talk"

Schilling didn't wake up and say "I need to talk about Ralphie the Scum Bag"

If he did, think he would have waited?

No, someone asked him about it.

Really, you guys are acting like Schilling called a press confrence and release a statement, someone asked him a question, he answered.

Hero - You had a team, no one cared and they're now in Washington and their best players are on other teams.

Miz - You have a great team, until the pressure starts and then the choke.

RP - Wait... Indy? Who'se the AAA or AA team around there?

:p :kiss: to all 3 of you.

I understand what Hero is getting at, the thing is, people ask him, he's not going to them, that's where the difference is.

[The Miz]

Miz - You have a great team, until the pressure starts and then the choke.

Who is my team VEL?

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

But he looked fantabulous against perennial MVP candidates Angel Berroa and Mark TeahenHe probably won't be back to 100% this year, you never know though. Maybe by playoff time.

Whatever though, atleast the Sox have a pretty good chance of making the playoffs suckaaas

[The Miz]

I would not be surprised at all if Schilling ended up hurting them more than helping them. He keeps saying he can pitch and well get better, but what if when the postseason starts he is still this ineffective? I doubt his problems stem from rustiness, I've seen some of his starts and he is not driving at all off his ankle. I hope this doesn't happen, not because I like the Red Sox but because I don't want to here his bitching and excuses all winter

With or without him, the Red Sox have arguably the worst pitching of any AL contender

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

How have you seen some of his starts though? He has only started that one game since like the start of the season. He shouldn't have even pitched at all at the start of the season. Personally I think they should have just left him in the bullpen or not used him at all and wait til he was back to 100%. That's not my decision though. I also said they should have benched Damon and Bellhorn in last years ALCS so maybe they know something I don't. He pitched fine in the 1st inning then started to break down so I think that shows the stamina is not there in his ankle at all.

The starting pitching hasn't been great but it hasn't been AWFUL either though, Wells pitched real nice today but Arroyo just flat out blew it yesterday so who knows? The Red Sox have the best offense in the majors so it will be intresting. Manny and Ortiz have a combined 230 RBIs :eek:

[The Miz]

I was talking more about the bullpen but there starting is pretty weak. If they go all the way they're going to be winning alot of games 12-9. I don't think they have enough pitching and defense to do it this year, yeah they have a killer lineup but look what it has done for the Yanks the last 4 years.

[VonErich Lives]

Who is my team VEL?


Always assumed it was the Mariners, aren't you a seattle fan? Mariners and Seahwaks?

[The Miz]

When did the Mariners choke?

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

The Yankees line up brought them to the World Series and had them one game away from it.

I hope this doesn't happen, not because I like the Red Sox but because I don't want to here his bitching and excuses all winter

With or without him, the Red Sox have arguably the worst pitching of any AL contender

I have the same concern, like most good pitchers they're so damn stubborn and want to help the team, they don't tell the coach when they can't go, and where he's "Francona boy", I dunno if Tito would give him the hook when he should.

He hasn't always had his fastball and his placement has been on/off.

The rest of the staff has been shakey. Wakefield will be good, and Wells has been on lately and I'm fairly comfortable with him in a big game. Clement has looked good, but I have no clue how he'll be with a big game on the line.

So, I'm confident in two of the starters. Only really takes 3 come playoff time.

The pen, Hopefully we get last years Foulke back, if not Timlin is fine, unless he's brought in with runners on base, he gets killed with runners on base.

I honestly wouldn't be suprised to see Pappelbon in the rotation come playoffs.

Defense isn't as good as last year and we've down a few bats (Kevin Millar), but Olerud still seems to be able to hit, the question is will the finally bench Millar.

So yeah, not as good as last year, but still good and a contender. If schilling turns it on, they'll be in much better shape.

That all being said, the White Sox have great pitching and thats what wins. But do they have enough bats so they don't loose 2-1?

[VonErich Lives]

When did the Mariners choke?

Didn't they have like the best regular season record and then get killed in the playoffs?

I seem to remember every time they hit the playoffs the team went to crap.

(and you didn't even think I knew who your "team" was) :)

[The Miz]

Yeah they had the best regular season record, they were not the best team. 116 wins was a result of no injuries and having 9 guys who gave it their all 162 out of 162 times. It did not translate to postseason success and I didn't expect it too. And they did not get "killed"; they got blown out one game, blew the Yankees out one game, and the other 3 losses were by 1 or 2 runs, each of them was close from the 1st to the 9th. The Yankees were a better team that year and anyone with half a brain could see that. Regular season records are overrated, does anybody really think Chicago is going to win the World Series? If they lose in the ALCS, will it be achoke?

[RP]

[QUOTE=VonErich Lives]

Indianapolis Indians. :love:

[YOUR Hero]

Actually Miz, I've stated not too long ago that Chacin has lost his place as the ROY, IMO because he hasn't won in 4-5-6 starts now. When you and I first talked about ROYs, Chacin was a front runner with an 11-4 record. Times have changed, I'm not blind about these things.

[OssMan]

lol was anyone listening to what Jon Miller and Joe Morgan just said? It was like this:

Jon Miller: Sportscenter 50 States in 50 Days continues tonight from Louisiana, at the duck festival
Joe Morgan: Louisiana
...
(long pause)
Jon Miller: It is supposed to be cooling down over there (or something, dunno)

It was so funny. Joe Morgan rule but sometimes he is so hilarious like that.

[BCWWF]

I still think Boston is the best team in the AL

[RoXer]

LOL at Shawn Green


Also...

[RoXer]

0.5 motherfuckers. ZEROPOINTFIVE

[BCWWF]

5.5, looks like Twins are done again. Hopefully Johan can muster it up and win the Cy though, just to take something from the Sox.

[Loose Cannon]

gonna be an exciting September. Tough call for the 4 spots in the AL. Well the Chi Sox definately.

[The Miz]

A's signed Mark Bellhorn. :-\ I guess he could play third and let Chavez DH because his shoulder hurts but I dunno, he kinda sucks major penis.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Nice his K count is no longer n/a

[VonErich Lives]

A's signed Mark Bellhorn. :-\ I guess he could play third and let Chavez DH because his shoulder hurts but I dunno, he kinda sucks major penis.

Why can I already see him taking a sox pitcher deep to win a game in the playoffs...

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

I used to think stuff like that until last year. I really thought Tony Clark was going to take Keith Foulke deep to win the game and end the playoff run for the Sox.

[The Miz]

K nevermind, Bellhorn is now with the Yanks. :|

[Loose Cannon]

LOL, now it's definately happening.

Bottom 9th Game 7

[VonErich Lives]

K nevermind, Bellhorn is now with the Yanks. :|

:rofl: I still stand by my dislike of every move the D'Backs made this year. Green? Not that great. Ortiz? That much money for a subpar pitcher with high win totals Glaus? 4 years 45 mil for a HUGE injury risk (who hasn't gotten injutred to this point, surprisingly) and they are still close in a SHITTY NL West.

[Lotus]

I pray for every team in the NL West to lose just so I can see a team that has a piece of shit record make the playoffs. Though it would be nice to see the Giants climb up, though I'm not a huge fan of them.

[Loose Cannon]

I feel like Giambi just gave the middle finger right to Miz

[BCWWF]

I feel like he had it in his ass earlier, so it had shit all over it, under the nail and stuff.

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

LOL The Yanks got Bellhorn? Embree, Bellhorn - Yankees picking up Red Sox rejects.

[OssMan]

Went to the Red Sox game last night, got infield seats behind the dugout for free because my dad has sweet hook ups. Ridiculous game but had to wait for 1 1/2 hours in Rain Delay.

What is the deal with Lugo? Was he the first one to be found out for steroids, everyone was on him all night. He looked like he wanted to kill someone :o
