VioletlightHeron Wrote:So Clemens signs with the Evil Empire....I wonder how much money Darth George waved under Clemen's nose to get him in a Yankees uniform. Lord knows they need the pitching help! :lol: :lol:

It was reported that Clemens signed for $28 million but it's prorated so he wouldn't get all of it obviously. Just ridiculous. How can anyone actually root for the Yankees? :roll:

I think Clemens still has the goods, but what irks me is his recent penchant for sitting out the first month of the season and enjoying the ass-kissing from general managers hoping they can woo him away from his "retirement". :roll: But, that said, he did pretty decent for the Astros last season and his record would have been better had the Astros managed to gin up some offense, which shouldn't be a problem for the Yankees. I read that Clemens should be ready for the June series with Boston, should be quite interesting! 8)

The Jays are losers, they must be trying to catch up with the Leafs, I can definitely see them going at least 40 years without another WS title. :lol: :lol:

GO RED SOX!!!!!!!!

Imagine a world before the "beginning was the word.”

That's true. The Jays have a losing mentality. They've been supposedly on the cusp for the past year or two but at the end of this season it'll go down in the books as yet another mediocore year for the team. They do have those two championships as a source of pride but those days are long gone.

As for the Sox, it took them 80+ years to win another title so there isn't much room to talk. Tongue

Yeah it's all Halladay's fault Confusedcratch: It doesn't matter what your pitcher does when your offense doesn't score any runs. Do you really expect him to win every single game he pitches? The only thing that concerns me about his last two games is that it leads me to believe he might be injuried too.

That starts with the manager, and if there's any good to come out of this disaster of a season, it's that he will be gone and hopefully replaced with someone who knows how to win.

After the Sox' 86 year futility streak, I suppose you would know a loser when you see one better than most.

Boston is defiintely the class of the AL right now. Detroit's playing good ball now after a slow start, Cleveland too. Minnesota is struggling, so are the Yanks, so are the White Sox....and nobody in the West compares....

As far as the NL goes -- how 'bout dat Brew Crew? I predicted that the Brewers would win the Central, but I didn't think it would be going quite like this. They look like NL Champs right now. Solid ballclub.

I'm not quite ready to crown the Brewers yet, but they are defenitely hitting their marks and getting W's. The Cardinals look like they are still shell-shocked from Hancock's death, but I wouldnt count them out just yet. In past seasons, the Brewers have started out great and then fall apart after the All Star Break, but hopefully they'll keep on trucking!

Well like I said yesterday, Halladay's poor performance had to make you think he was nursing an injury. Just heard on the Fan 590 here in T.O. that he's just been taken in to have his appendix removed, so he's out 4-6 weeks Cry

Halladay is one of the TRUE PREMIER pitchers in the game. It doesn't surprise me that he wasn't healthy. I was thinking that something might be wrong with him.

Baseball is kind of depressing to watch these days because of the lack of good pitching. It's borderline disgusting how mediocore to below average the majority of pitching staffs are.

Twice in a row too! Although it helps that they are playing the Devil Rays; aside from Shields and Kazmir, D-Rays have no pitching.

Aside, damm am I glad I picked up J.J. Hardy! Confusedhock: The man is on absolute fire right now :jump :jump Starting to have alot more hope for the Brewers with the ass-whipping today and the close loss last night against the Mets.

So I'm flicking through the channels and come across the Blue Jays on Sportsnet. Apparently Marcum pitched 6 no hit innings and was taken out of the game. :roll: :roll: Frasor promptly comes into the game and gives up a homerun. Confusedhock: I guess Marcum wasn't pitching well enough to continue in the game.
