Yankees rule. That's all that needs to be said.

**BCWWF** · 10-01-2004, 01:12 PM

He wasn't a problem a few days ago.

**The Miz** · 10-01-2004, 05:19 PM

There is no chance of Oakland or Anaheim getting past Boston.

Yes, and they had him on a strict pitch count w/ instructions to take it easy.

**The Miz** · 10-01-2004, 08:30 PM

Nomar is a free agent on Monday if (when) the Cubs don't make the playoffs. Why do I have a bad feeling that tis will be the Yankees infield next year?

1B Giambi
2B Garciaparra
3B Rodriguez
SS Jeter

**BCWWF** · 10-01-2004, 09:04 PM

Do you think that Garciaparra would accept being a 2B though? This is what I think will happen...

45% Stay with the Cubs
20% Go to the Dodgers
15% Go to the Angels
10% Go back to the Red Sox
10% Go to Yankees or other team

That is somewhat educated, but not really

**The Miz** · 10-01-2004, 09:13 PM

I think the chances are much slimmer than 45% of staying with the Cubs. I would not be surprised to see him in a Giant, Mariner or White Sox uniform next year, all 3 desperately need a shortstop. I don't know where you got Dodgers/Angels/Red Sox from, Eckstein, Izturis, and Cabrera are all solidifed.

**Apprentice** · 10-01-2004, 10:27 PM

Well, Nomar is from So Cal, so if he wants to go back, I'm sure the Dodgers or Angels will consider it, but I agree both infields are pretty solid already. I'd see him going to the Angels right now over the Dodgers, if that happened since eckstein and kennedy aren't "that" great.

And its not Cabrera, its Cora.

**The Miz** · 10-01-2004, 10:30 PM

No, it's Cabrera. He plays for the Red Sox. I already said the Dodgers shortstop, Cesar Izturis. Alex Cora plays second base.

**The Miz** · 10-01-2004, 10:35 PM

4. Wakefield

O ok, i misread.

**Loose Cannon** · 10-01-2004, 11:01 PM

I heard the A's would be throwing Harden, Redman and then Hudson in that order because of the schedule.

heard it on ESPN this morning. Tim Kirkjun (SP) said it.

If the game where Redman starts is in Oakland, it is an automatic loss.

**The Miz** · 10-01-2004, 11:20 PM

Just found out Carpenter is out for the first round. Put Marquis in there instead.

**Loose Cannon** · 10-01-2004, 11:24 PM

Should the Twins go old school with Santana and have him go 1,3, and 5 (if played)

He could be like Matthewson a la 1905.

**Sensei Of Mattitude** · 10-02-2004, 12:04 AM

LETS GO ATHLETICS!!!!!!!!!

**Loose Cannon** · 10-02-2004, 12:40 AM

Jesus Christ. Bonds has a .608 OBP. Unreal. I didn't even realize it was that high.

**BCWWF** · 10-02-2004, 02:19 AM

The Twins are using Silva as the #3 guy because he has been pretty hot lately. I assume Lohse is just long relief.

Dodgers has always been a rumor because he's from CA and the new owner is/was a boston Businesman.

I think he stays in Chicago... it's a perfect fit... he's a whiney bitch on a team of whiney bitches...

come'on, this is the guy who thought the groundscrew at fenway was conspiring against him and this is a team, that got upset because there tv announcers said the other pithcer was throwing a great game.

Chicago cubs need a team shrink.

**VonErich Lives** · 10-02-2004, 08:07 AM

FYI, you're both wrong on the Red Sox rotation.

It will be.

Schilling
Martinez
Wakefield or Arroyo
Arroyo or Wakefield

At least according to the sox site and Francona, Lowe is going to the Pen for the ALDS, could change for the ALCS, but I wouldn't count on it. Personally I question even putting Lowe on the playoff roster.

Gammons said the other day the way the Astros games fall, they could pitch Clemens/Oswalt for all 5 games...

Remember a few years ago when SD went to the WS and Kevin Brown pitched like every other game?

Anyway, begining of the year I got a Clemens and Schilling jersey and called an Astros/Red Sox WS... still got some hope there!

Well you're right, he fits better on the Cubs than he does on the Boston Rednecks.

WOOO COWBOY UP BOYS GIT R DONE

umm... yeah, Boston Rednecks... that makes sense... cause Kevin Millar over used a phrase last year...

Everything I hear and read from the Cubs they just seem like a bunch of whiners. Didn't they try banning the media from the lockeroom?

**The Miz** · 10-02-2004, 10:46 AM

It;s funny how you're still bitter over Nomar leaving. Kevin Millar, who seemed to be the leader of the team last year, is a huge redneck. So are Trot "Props to Jesus for that Walk off Homer" Nixon and Tim Wakefield. A Red Sox fan calling ANYBODY a whiner might be the most ironic thing I have ever heard.

**Loose Cannon** · 10-02-2004, 01:59 PM

Yash, I hope you know the Red Sox could face the Twins if the Twins sweep the Tribe and wind up with a better record then the A's/Angles. It was on ESPN this morning.

**Yashamaga** · 10-02-2004, 03:29 PM

I know that

but the Yankees certainly helped us out

Miz, it would be great if you knew what you were talking about.... I was going to try and clue you in, but instead... I'll let you explain and maybe show you have an idea of what you're saying.

1) How am I bitter over Nomar leaving?

2) Did Nomar leave or was he traded?

3) Any idea where Millar grew up?

4) Any idea how the "Cowboy up" phrase started?

5) Does being very religious and having a strong belief in Jesus automaticly make you a Redneck?

6) What is your definiton of a "Huge Redneck"

7) What's ironic about a sox fan calling "ANYBODY" a whiner?

Answering these will save me some time in educating, so I know exactly where you need help.

LMAO they suspended the game because they had a college football game.

**The Miz** · 10-02-2004, 06:40 PM

1. You manage to turn every baseball discussion into an attack on Nomar.

2. He was traded, that doesn't stop you from your "Nomar wanted out" and "Team cancer" hissyfits

3. Los Angeles, California to my knowedge. You don't think there are hicks out there? I used to live in Oakland, there are rednecks all over California.

4. No and I don't give a shit.

5. No, but Trot Nixon is one of the many people who is a Jesus Freak and a redneck.

6. I don't have one. What the hell does that have to do with anything?

7. "The Yankees buy championships :cry: " when the Red Sox have the 2nd highest payroll in the league. If the Red Sox lose, it's never their fault, it's always the Yankees fault.
