AppleDave Veteran Posted July 4, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 4, 2005 Anyone hear about Brett Boone? Was released. I honestly think a team like Tampa should pick him up and use his veteran knwoledge to help their team along, even if he won't be much a presence at the plate. 586163092[/snapback] Yeah I just saw his interview on ESPN, he got really emotional. Brett will be back there is no doubt about that, the questions is whether he can still be a contender or not.

AppleDave Veteran Posted July 5, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 5, 2005 Anyone catch the Yanks game today? They downright killed the Orioles, 17 hits by the team. The score was 12-3, they look good right now boys and girls. They are absolutely killing the ball.

Prosidius Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I'm a Brewer fan. I cheer when they lose, I laugh when they think they will win it all. I will laugh and cheer when the White Sox goto the WS and win before the beloved cubbies. Lets go Brewers, Astros and Bucs!!!! (If they all win and Chicago loses, Chicago will be in 5th place.)

bangbang023 Veteran Posted July 8, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 8, 2005 Stop with the anti-Cub trolling man. It's annoying. I still don't understand why teams don't just fastball hammer Giambi. His homers are all against offspeeds pitches and he still has a hard time getting the high heat. Duh, just got after him.

Thank god we sent Corey Patterson to do minors. Cubs beat the Pirates today 11-1.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted July 16, 2005 Veteran Share Posted July 16, 2005 I'm sick and tired of Manny Ramirez. For those who didn't see it, the Bosox are beating the Yanks 12 - 1. Manny gets up and hits a long fly towards the incredibly poor fielder, Melky Cabrera who barely managed to get to it and snatch it up before it hit the grass. The problem? Manny took 4 or 5 slow steps away from the plate, holding his bat and just watching the ball travel. What the hell is that? You get paid $20 million a year and you can't at least try to run decently hard? That's nothing but disrespect to the other team, his own teammates, and the fans who paid very good money to get a chance to see him. Damn, I wish people would be less concerned about upsetting players and Francona would bench him for a game. If I ever saw someone on my team doing that (whether youth basketball as a coach or any sport as a player), I would flip out to no end. It's disgusting.

nemo Posted July 16, 2005 Share Posted July 16, 2005 the yankees need some ****ing starting pitching talent... enough with the big names. they need good numbers... obviously big names aren't helping them.. i heard they wanted to get Al leiter who i slike 3-6 with a like 6.78 ERA.... yeah, i'm sure he's gonna help us... :rolleyes: if the yankees are down they wont try to come back unless there is one person who ends up getting a good hit to put them back in it, otherwise they just don't do ****. edit: Leiter, 39, was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Thursday. The team had 10 days to release or trade the left-hander, who was 3-7, 6.64 ERA this year as a starter and reliever. OH, he's gonna help... He's gonna either hur thimself or just lose his gas (which it looks like he already has)... ****ing moron Cashman is... he needs to be booted... Cashman is ruining the yankees.
