"step aside, biyayatch!"
 
Jays win. O Dog with 2 HRs. Since there are strong rumors he'll be traded, this can only be a good thing, raising his trade value, especially if we're winning in the process :)

We're back at .500 now, joining our friends the Yankees. I hear they're starting a minor league callup by the name of Randy Johnson tonight, so I'd count on them falling behind the .500 kings.
 
I know I defended Alan Embree last week, but he isn't really doing much to help himself now. His ERA is now at 7.79, and that is not going to get it done. Granted, he got help from the awful Ramon Vasquez, but Embree still was the one to allow the baserunners. Either way, it looks like the Sox now know what they really need: a decent reliever and a competent utility infielder. Get on the phone Theo, let the Pokey Reese era redux begin!

Oh, and 2.5 games up now.

meh, we still split the season series. don't forget we won two of three at the friendly confines.

i didn't get to see any or listen to most of the game because of stupid fucking work, so i can't say a whole lot.
a season split feels so lackluster though. ah well.
 
Nice win but Damn Yanks...don't you f*cking know who you are!?! Arrrggghgh!

The line up needs adjusting. Wilmack and Cano should be platooning and Giambi should be DHing to give Tino some more playing time.
 
Fucking bitch... at least it was nice to see the Mets treat the Yanks like bitches the past few days. There is no question as to which team is better.
 
I really wish they would hand the closing job over to Royce Ring now,Looper is a nut job,aka Benitez part 2.

With this bitter defeat I can only do one thing baby. Time to go burry myself in a sea of porn sites for the rest of the night.

We'll get the Phillies next on Tuesday...yeah sure we will.

.500 ball sucks.
 
Fuck yeah, Prior was damn overrated today. I was expecting a no-hitter.

But anyway, one hit for the game for the White Sox :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol
 
oh yeah, sox won their 7th straight today. manny hit a pop up grand slam too.

damn that phillies park is weird!
 
John Smoltz and Andruw Jones have to be about the best combination in baseball these days. Smoltz has been unstoppable his past four appearances and Jones has 12 HRs in 57 or so at bats. Simply amazing.

Looper sucks. we should trade Batista (a real closer) and Wells to the Mets for Beltran and KOO!
I'd make that trade! ;) Beltran would have more value in TO offensively and both he and Wells are very good defensive CF's so both teams get good fits. Of course, Wells isn't a 40-40 threat like Beltran but a solid, dependable closer like Batista would flourish in the NL. I really doubt that the Jays could pick up even half of Beltrans paycheque though so oh well.
 
Too bad the Yanks hit their skid the same time the O's did. Or else they'd be at a healthy 2nd place right behind Boston. Goddamnit.

Why must Tampa Bay have our number ALL the time! AHH


Anyways, nobody mentions ENOUGH how the Yanks are missing 2 starting pitchers and are falling back on 2 last second replacements. No Brown for the last week and a half (who was just settling down) and now Wright this season causes for a crazy-ass 5 pitcher rotation.

The Yanks have lucked out with the great pitching of Wang, but the Brown spot is still sorely missed. (Jon Leiber is too by the way. He's accidently got dropped off in Philadelphia.)

Not giving up on this season or anything but this offseason is going to be crazy for the Yanks. Hopefully alot of cleaning up, and alot of reorganizing of the farm teams.

Cleaning up = a more consistent lineup day-in day-out. It's important for the players to get used to who hits before and after them. If you look at the individual batting avg's of the players, each are having great years. But teams score by knowing how to react on the basepaths.

Oh yeah, how the hell do you let Corey Patterson hit a home run off of you? Pathetic.

the same way you let a club that's only scored in double digits twice ALL SEASON score 12.

seriously, i've never seen a group of fans so pumped about a season split.

<cubs fans>
HELL YA NO BRAGGING RIGHTS FOR EITHER OF US THIS YEAR TAKE THAT!
NOW IT'S TIME FOR US TO GET BACK TO PLAYING .500 BALL!

</cubs fans>


have fun watching us in the playoffs.

thats because anyone not working for George Steinbrenner knew Brown and Wright are complete garbage since the offseason so its their own fault for relying on two scrubs to strengthen their pitching staff.

:lol :lol I don't even live in Chicago, and it's clear that Sox fans are the ones who want bragging rights. Go to mlb.com highlights and you see fans close to tears after the game. The white sox will either choke their lead to the Twins, or get swept in the 1st round. Win-Win situation.

but once i get back tonight i'll be happy to gloat about exposing prior for the fraud he is.

:lol :lol I don't see your boy ozzie saying Garland is better than Prior tonight.

yeah, well i do. so shut the hell up....you have no idea what the atmosphere is like over here. all the cubs fans know they're not going anywhere this year and are rubbing this in sox fans' faces like you wouldn't believe (even though THIS IS A FUCKING SPLIT YOU MORONS).
if you don't live here, then don't comment on "who wants bragging rights" based on something you think you know by catching a glimpse of a tv crowd. give me a fuckin' break dude.


:lol :lol I don't see your boy ozzie saying Garland is better than Prior tonight.

you're an idiot.
ozzie never said garland was better than prior. all he said was garland accomplished more this season than prior did, and he still doesn't get the media coverage prior does.
but you wouldn't know facts. all cub fans are good at is spewing bullshit.

You're the one who talked shit about the series before The Cell. You brought it and your team couldn't back it up! The sox got punked and now you eat the crow! Garland>>> Prior yeah you weren't baiting at all! :lol Face it your team got wiped out by the superior team!

have fun watching us in the playoffs.


Yeah, I'll enjoy watching the sox take a 1st round exit while the Cubs win the World Series!
