Man

Beltre is the one guy who doesn't suck in the middle of our lineup. Except since he's surrounded by fail, his efforts always seem to be wasted. Such bullshit.

by joof on Apr 1, 2008 9:25 PM PDT reply actions  

Yeah, they should move him back to the 2 hole

Ichiro will get his 200+ hits, and Beltre can rack up 150 RBI hitting behind him

Before Putz when we used to send out Eddie to protect a 3 run lead in the 9th and every single one of us knew he'd blow it.

Those were some good times. Hopefully Eddie remembers them next inning.

Wow

there is a lot of unchecked aggression here towards fraternities, I;m going to guess that the fraternities at your school probably aren't very good at living their values

not really sure what that mean

but I'm just referring to frats and douche frat guys in general

Not all fraternity boys

are douchebags. Besides, you can find douchebags anywhere. Values that my fraternity fosters are friendship, scholarship, and service.

How the hell is C.J. Wilson a 'closer'

I cannot see him as anything but a LOOGY. But hey - I guess he is gettin the job done. Fuck.

by seattlesundevil on Apr 1, 2008 10:23 PM PDT reply actions  

Soooo...

Really, really bad show of offense by the M's last two games.

Millwood, Padilla??

Its quite a bit worse than I thought.

by vkut79 on Apr 1, 2008 10:31 PM PDT reply actions  

Umm, about CJ Wilson...

I'm not saying he's the best closer in the league, but his numbers last year were pretty good.
