Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted April 19, 2005 I don't understand why Greinke isn't the Royals ace right now. He's the only guy that's looked competent on the mound for him. It's a shame he'll probably finish this season with a 3 something ERA and have 12+ losses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 The wind's blowing out in Cincy and in the first inning, all three Reds outs were close to being homers, but instead, were three superb catches. I think I should've benched Prior, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why was he nonexistent in the FA market last year? He has good stuff, and hes a lefty. The only reason I had was because of his horrible post season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cartman 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 Manny Ramirez came 10 feet short of landing a HR ball on the Mass Pike. OVER the Monster, OVER the lights...sick.

Bruiser Chong 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 Nomar's insistence to make every play dramatic costs the Cubs a run instead of getting out of the inning. He had Aurillia by quite a bit but sidearmed the fucker like he was trying to hit someone. And he popped out on the first pitch with the bases loaded. Jackass.

mike546 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 If Randy Johnson loses this game, and with the luck the Yankees have tonight*, it could happen, I might shoot myself. * Having a DP turned JUST because the ball went RIGHT to the shortstop, who was covering 2nd because Matsui was stealing. Or Wolmack getting thrown out at home due to the Rays making a PERFECT relay throws. In the same inning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course Im not watching the game cuz I cant. WIsh I had the extra dough for extra innings package. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike546 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 Because Cy Nomo is unhittable. No, its the same reasons. The ability to the 10000th power to suck at hitting with RISP. Swinging at bad pitches. And in general, just flat out sucking. Add that with our suddenley suckass bullpen, and now Randys HR happy pitching, walah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest SpiderFan Report post Posted April 20, 2005 Jays split the series in Boston, which puts us back in second place, and we still have yet to lose a series. It'd be nice if this lasts, but the realist in me doesn't think it will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jericholic82 0 Report post Posted April 20, 2005 The Yankees traditionally perform poorly after they win 19-8 games. Thats what made me nervous anyhow the last few years they always seem to leave lots on base. Don't get it since they have so many great hitters, well in theory that is. Besides, I have been saying for years that the media overhyped Alex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'd be nice if this lasts, but the realist in me doesn't think it will. I'm just enjoying for it as long as we can go. We had an awful early schedule and just to have a winning record for the road trip is quite good. Also positive is that Batista picked up his 4th Save in a season where closers all over the place have been struggling (isn't that right Mr. Foulke?). Aside from that one bad outing where the Jays won anyways, he's pitched quite well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
