Lets sign Jason Johnson, who's 0-8 in his last 9 starts with Boston...and was DFA'ed today <_<

In the real world, I just don't know what the deal is with this team anymore

Brenneman's anti-Moneyball schtick again. Once again, he's confusing Sabermetrics with Moneball. And Grace agrees. Spineless prick...

Once again.. Thom and Grace butcher Moneyball. They've either only skimmed one chapter of the Cliff Notes version or didn't understand the text.

Like getting on base a lot could be considered a bad thing.

they need to get more creative in fucking with hairston. the sent up / sent down thing is so passe. what about telling him he had a starting job for 2 weeks, but he had to play wearing a skirt and makeup? or asking him if being a starting lfer was worth cutting off his little finger. once he did it, they could always say they wouldn't start him anyway. cheap laughs.

Why has Gonzo started everyday since crying like a little girl? Why is Green starting at all? Why can't we see 4/5 of my sig in the line-up today?

Bingo.

Hariston's f'd simply by virtue of the fact that he's a LF and Gonzo's July 20 hissyfit ensured that nobody but Gonzo will start in LF the rest of this season.

He's just quoting Gloria over at AZCentral. Casual "don't bother me with facts" fan rules!

Young with the great hustle to pick up his first ML run. That should show people who thinks he's lazy.

Nobody said he was lazy. Just that he looks pretty damn calm at the plate, which is actually a good thing for a rookie in his first game.

Julio? Isn't he the closer still? What's he doing in the 8th when we're down by 4?

Melvin has obviously given up...or Valverde or Pena have taken over the spot?

I don't know what the harder sale is Grace trying to push Green to NY or Thom trying to motivate people to buy 2007 season tickets by offering up 2006 post season rights.

Not enough pictures and too many polysyllabic words.

With 0 out in the bottom of the 8th Finley just hit a solo shot to right center to put the Gants up 7-3 over the Dodgers.
