They don't have an ace. So they just went with the guy who had the lowest ERA this year. Salazar pretty talented, just highly unproven..



Their ace was Masterson, but he was hurting near the end of the season.

For some reason Francona decided to pitch Jimenez on Sunday even though he was slated to pitch the WC game.

McAllister was good for periods and bad for other periods

The rest I honestly don't know much about.

"Can" and "will" are separate, but not equal.

Worrld will tell you that I like Zima's, though.

You strike me as a Zima "Pink Lemonade" fan, Hu. Am I right?

LOL! I like those Bacardi thing-a-mummies when they're offered for free, but I honestly don't recall a pink Zima.

You seem familiar with them, though??

why am I not surprised you know Zima flavors?

Because my fruity little nephew never comes over unless he has a cute little Zima four-pack.

He won't let me make him a Stoli/grapefruit juice and he won't/can't drink beer - has to be a Zima. I think his boyfriend got him started on them.

If you ever catch me drinking a Zima, demand that I immediately relinquish my Man Card.

Just so we are clear. Red Sox, Tigers are the only quality teams in the AL?

..and the A's.


and the Rays if they stay out of their bullpen like they did last night.

Other than that is a lot of bullshit in the AL.

Zima had it's moment, and I remember it.

From 30 years ago.

A phrase I thought I would never see uttered by you.

But look what Zima started: the whole "malt beverage" girl-, underaged teen-, and gay-guy-drink industry. Without Zima, there would be no Mike's Lemonade, Budweiser Strawberry Daquiri-whatever the hell it is, or Bacardi Silver.

I have one of them. when he was 5 and wanted a purple birthday cake and Barbie dolls, my mom asked my dad if he was OK with all this. My dad just shook his head and said do I have a choice.

Times have changed Big D


And, I find it impressive when changes of opinion follow.

And, you know probably a bunch of posters who still refuse to change their opinion on the subject I am sure.

The writing was on the wall when George died. Hopefully Hank and Hal sell this team quickly.

What we had was bound to end sooner or later, it was always just a matter of time before the core got too old. They hung around a lot longer than a lot of people thought they would. A lot more ended last week than Mariano and Andy's careers, an era ended.

Nothing lasts forever, but there were times when it sure felt like it would.

I was talking about the spending, but yeah you knew it was coming when Bernie retired. and that was 7 years ago.

:lol:
Oh the stories I could tell about this guy. Drives my Dad utterly insane. "That's one weird kid, I'm telling you."

He carries around a massive cross-body manpurse with D&G emblazoned on it and wears the oversized fruity Joe Maddon glasses.
