Recommended Posts

Well, guys, I'll be heading to the Cell in lovely south-side Chicago tonight to see the Red Sox. Hopefully I won't get shot or kidnapped.

And with Ishii starting, no less. =)

 

Game ends at 12-0. Mets get the sweep, and it's their fourth win in a row.

Who da thunk that Ishii and Graves would be part of a 12-0 shutout? If the Nats lose, Mets are 4.5 back and Atlanta and the Nats will be tied for first.

 

Annnnnd that's exactly what happens. :)

 

Nationals lose again despite a 2-Run Homer from Wilson in the bottom of the ninth. The Braves are overtaking them much more quickly than expected.

Well done Yankee bullpen. And they say the RED SOX pen needs work? Gordon's ok, but they have NO ONE reliable to be the bridge between the starter and Gordon at all. The offense can bail you out only so many times.

Fucking awesome night in Chicago. There were seriously maybe ten thousand Red Sox fans there, at one point we started a HUGE "let's go Red Sox" chant. When we were down 4-1, these guys in front kept turning back and laughing at me, and I just didn't say anything, but I definitely had the last laugh tonight. POTG= Joe Crede.

Also, after the Sox won the AL and again for the World Series, you edited your whole AIM profile just to be a tribute to the Boston Red Sox, and you even said at one point that you were planning on going to a game this weekend as well.

Actually, Tanyon pitched the day before, and he's the guy that bridges the gap. Just bad luck that Guerrero was up at that spot against Gordon. But yeah, our bullpen is better. I mean outside of Timlin, there's no one else. Didn't Schilling blow a save?

Proctor is not the answer to filling that gap.

 

The starters really need to try and work through 7 innings. That would help alot. Now, since they blew it last night, we have to pray for Al Leiter to help win the game.

Mets come damn close to overturning a six run deficit, but fall just short and lose 6-5. Losing to the Dodgers after sweeping the Padres...hmm.

 

On the plus side, the Nationals lost in embarassing fashion and it looks like the Braves are gonna lose as well, meaning that the Mets'll still be 4 1/2 back of both the division lead and the Wild Card at the end of the night.

Who the hell was that the White Sox brought out in the 9th? Looked like one of those chubby pitchers you'd see in the Little League World Series. Seriously, guy looked like he was a really big 12 year old.

Orioles trade Sidney Ponson to the Padres for Phil Nevin.

 

The Padres then traded two minor leaguers to the Reds for Joe Randa.

 

The Burnett/Orioles trade is DEAD.
