    maybe they'll pitch CC in Sheets turn in the rotation, as well as his own turn. Maybe use him as the closer as well. He's thrown 88 innings in 11 starts since becoming a Brewer. Milwaukee knows they can't re-sign him, so they don't care if his arm falls off. they just hope it happens in 2009. seriously, whoever signs him next year may be dealing with the next Zito. He threw 250 IP last year, and has thrown 210 already this year.

    Zito was never that good to begin with ... the Giants were just very, very stupid.

    Sox trying to comeback, Tek hitting 181 with runners in scoring position not good.

    BTW who was the last Red Sox Captain?

    Good luck with him next year. It's no small rumor that the Yanks will beone of the teams heavily pursuing C.C. and no one is going to be able to outbid them.

    Why did I figure you were going to be the one to answer that question. Good one, I heard it on the O's network broadcasting the game tonight. I was surprised that the captain's title went that far back to Jim Rice.

    I saw him play many times at Fenway and man he could hit some shots out of Fenway.

    Growing up as a Red Sox fan in Philly, I hated the Blue Jays and Tigers more than the Yanks because they were always competing with the Sox from 86-90. It wasn't till I had a Yankee fan as a roommate in college as a sophomore that I grew to despise them.

    Heck, I even dated one for awhile freshman year in college - till I converted her away from the evil empire. ;)

    oh man...she was a bandwagon fan??? lol :D

    being born in toronto I always had them ranked 2nd in teams to root for. They had a sick squad too with Barfield, Cliff Johnson, Damso Garcia, etc Dave fucking Steib! :)

    It's all good she's an O's fan but loves Jeter and A-Rod. She did ask me for a Yankee t-shirt I told her yeah you get it with your own money.

    She knows when I go down to Florida in December I'll see a bunch of Spring Training games and pick up a ST Yankee shirt for her. She did wear a Red Sox shirt on the cruise a gift from my sis. I told she had to wear it at least once. :)

    Sox cruising 14-2

    The NY-TB series may be the first time that I've ever pulled for the MFY's.

    Sox are 20-9 since "The Hair" left town. So much for them falling apart after getting rid of the problem.

    The Dodgers are a hefty 15-16.

    Yep, I loved all the talking heads and national media who said that the Sox would be home for October. It shows how little credit they gave to the organization, management and team that has won 2 titles in 4 years.

    People just don't understand how much of a problem this guy was. You never know if the guy is going to cry, quit, and shut it down for 5-6 weeks. He's killing it now because he's playing for a contract. Good luck to the next team that signs him.

    I'll take Jason Bay and club house harmony.

    to think, I drafted that fucker in the 28th round of a really deep fantasy league last year and waived him when he got off to his 6 week, sub .200 start .... could have owned that guy for 3 years with that late draft round.

    oh well, at least he's on the sox.

    Nice fricking play, I played 3rd and many times I wouldn't expect that play coming to me.

    Need a comeback here
