FR Baseball discussion thread: W/E/ 8/14

Posted on 08/15/2005 4:00:00 PM PDT by ken5050

Hi all..sorry for the delay..we had a violent T-storm pass through last night..lost cable and internet until a little while ago...Interesting week that just was..races are starting to shape up..some of the pretenders have given up the ghost, and we're gonna purge them from our lists. My Metsies are burnt toast..they had a very, very, VERY bad week..the collision probably keeps Beltran and Cameron out for the season..and yesterday, in a few pitches, Pedro went from a near no-no, to a big Oh NO!!..so..let's begin...

Great post.

I agree, if the Chi Sox were in the AL East, they'd be in 4th place.

The AL East it the crucible of baseball.

GO SHILL!

I was talking about the rookie....

Funny but you give Timlin a huge lead against a team that just had its heart ripped out and he does fine. Put him in a clutch situation and the results aren't there.

He's a seventh inning guy nowadays although you can't see the truth for what it is.

Exactly, Papelbon, the one you previously said wasn't ready to pitch in the majors.

[Timlin] .... He's a seventh inning guy nowadays

Seventh AND eighth based on tonight's game, lol. Although it looks like now he's moving to the 9th.

Must be a pretty sad existence when you derive your happiness from castigating a guy who's 5-2, 1.73

Well, the kid can throw. Time will tell if he learns to pitch. He could be a good one....

$15M doesn't buy what it used to. A 4.34 ERA and an 11-8 record. So, the only thing more overrated than the ChiSox is the Big Useless, I guess.

Happy to see that the Big Eunuch had a rough day yesterday! ;-D

(Ahem... my husband made me post that)
