I was wondering about that when we went to see a game last year. I thought it might have been a replica of something that was in one of the older Reds parks. To me, it looked very turn of the century, and totally out of place within the park.

[Racing Truth]

I'd also like to confirm that, among everything else, Aaron Boone also cannot bunt properly, and can no longer play defense.

Other than that, he's an effective MLB player. :shakehead :gomer:

Hey Cork, your boy Zito might pitch well tonight. He's facing that juggernaut Indians offense. :laugh:

[Dr. Corkski]

Hey Cork, your boy Zito might pitch well tonight. He's facing that juggernaut Indians offense. :laugh:More likely he will make the entire Indians lineup look like A-Wad after the 6th. :laugh:

[Dr. Corkski]

More likely he will make the entire Indians lineup look like A-Wad after the 6th. :laugh:I was half-right. Zito pitched himself out of the game by then and the bullpen made sure he lost again. :laugh:

[Sean O'Gorman]

Hmm, funny how you constantly bitch about Barry Zito here, but when Keiichi Yabu blows three runs off of two hits, there is no mention of his name...

Is he a cousin or something?

[Dr. Corkski]

Hater. Difference is that Yabu isn't the #1 starter that can't pitch for more than six innings.

Barry Zito sucks. :thumdown:

Cork: To be fair, the rain delays probably lead to early departures of both Lee and Zito.Zito was up to 102 pitches by the end of the 6th, no way was Macha going to leave his sorry ass in. They weren't hitting as it was and Zito usually starts completely falling apart at that point.

Mark Prior with a broken elbow can do a better job as closer than anyone in the Cubs bullpen, that's including a healthy (HA! :laugh: )Borkowski.

#3 RPI, #4/5 rank nationally, sounds like worthy of a national seed to me... the selection commitee gave undue bias to SEC and ACC, *gasp* might LSU already out? say it ain't so!!!! Auburn #2 yet aggy not in the tourney ? Okie St and Tech stayed home too. Crock of ****.

happy now? :p

Tenn slaughtered GT, UF slaughtered FSU, so SEC is doing alright. Clemson has to carry the ACC through Waco which I doubt will happen considering Baylor's arms. Clemson shouldn't have the depth to keep up over the next 2 games... NU will kill Miami... so much for the ACC

Oregon State makes the World Series!

Only problem is, with another NCAA championship event, Oregon State is getting the shaft with a #8 seed. They are ranked 2nd in all 3 polls before going into the playoffs (regionals, super regionals), yet get seeded 8th.

This means they will have to face Tulane (ranked #1) in their first game in Omaha.

NCAA screws another PacNW team.

Zito has been getting more than 7 runs a game to work with, and is still the only full-time starter without a complete game this season, and hasn't had one in two years. :thumdown:

Uh, he won his 8th straight today 5-2 over the Twinkies...how does that make for >7 runs? During this run, he's given up 1,2,1,2,0,4,5, and 2 runs...plus, he made it through 8 innings three times during that span. Frankly the complete game stat you mentioned is a misnomer this day and age, and may be due in part to a manager's approach. He may have averaged 7 runs of support during his streak, but he definitely dint need it. Further, he was 3-2 in June w/a 3.05 ERA and 6-0 in July w/a 2.65 ERA. Heck, even his stats in May were a respectable 1-2 and 3.49. Since April, he's been pretty solid. Seems like you can't back up the h8 with stats, :gomer:ski. :p

OH MY GOSH. NO COMPLETE GAMES????@!?!?!!?!?!??!??@!??!?!??!? HES HORRIBLE! So if Nolan Ryan went out and pitched 8 scoreless innings, and handed the ball over to the closer in the 9th, you would consider it a poor start? Is that what you are saying? I think thats what you are saying?

And Garcia was a pro-bowl QB until he lost T.O. Although, you're probably right. I'm sure he'll make the pro-bowl this year as Detroit's backup.

I think thats what you are saying?It helps to have your team on fire offensively and outslug a bunch of pitching oriented teams. Zito can't pitch complete games because he can't be effective after 100 pitches, and he can't pitch effectivly without throwing a ton of pitches. That taxes the thin bullpen that Oakland has.


And Garcia was a pro-bowl QB until he lost T.O. Although, you're probably right. I'm sure he'll make the pro-bowl this year as Detroit's backup.Garcia will have the two Williams' to throw to if they finally decide to ditch Harrington. IIRC he did pretty well under their current coach. :gomer:

Garcia will have the two Williams' to throw to if they finally decide to ditch Harrington. IIRC he did pretty well under their current coach. :gomer:

So since July 1st, Barry Zito has pitched in 7 games. In those 7 starts hes thrown 51 innings. Thats an average of 7 2/3 per start. How does that tax a bullpen? By the way, he won everyone of those games. In fact he hasn't lost since June 17th.

Jeff Garcia is an average quarterback with good speed who played on a great team. He was garbage with the Browns, he won't be good with the Lions, if he even plays. If I'm wrong, I'll admit it, but I just don't see him being an effective quarterback in the NFL.

By the way. In 2003, Tim Couch had a 77.6 qb rating with the Browns. In 2004, Garcia had a 76.7. In 2004, Kelly Holcomb had a QB rating of 96.8.

So if Garcia is pro-bowl material, Couch is too, and Holcomb must be freaking Peyton Manning.

Tribe better make hay against the likes of the Tiggers, D-Rays, and KC to have a chance. They've got alotta games against those three on the remaining schedule. However, no more games against LAA (get the L outta LAA) or NYY, but they do have 3 games against the Oakies. Should be an interesting chase down the stretch.

Biggest thing for us - Oakland and Anaheim play each other 10 times still. If 1 of the two can dominate those 10 games, it will kill the chances for a WC winner from the West. If they go 5-5 in those games, both teams drop in the standings, which also helps.

Barry Zito lost another game for the A's. No, he didn't play, but he's so bad they couldn't pitch and couldn't get more than a run.

I'll tell you what. You bash him over Barry Zito and I will bash him over Jeff Garcia. Deal? ;)

I guess we will get to find out tonight as he takes on Mike Maroth and the Detroit Tigers. Honestly Cork, I'm rooting for a Zito loss tonight. Although ideally, it would be one where he goes 8 and the bullpen gives up the losing run.

13-3 loss to the D-Rays. Did the tribe claim Zito off waivers? :gomer:

Well Dando isn't here, so I will do it for him.

Barry Zito today:

6 innings pitched. 4 hits. no earned runs.

and before you rip on him for going 6, they had a 9-0 lead at the time, so some rest was fine.

Sorry, I was gonna post earlier, but had a meeting or three to attend. Cork will reply that he only pitched 6 innings, gave up 4 hits and 3 walks. Plus, it was against the Tiggers, so the 0 runs and 11 runs scored was expected. :shakehead :gomer:

Is this Zito h8 like FTG's vision? It just keeps morphing and morphing and morphing.... :gomer:

They pulled him out after 6 because he had thrown nearly 100 pitches and he usually completely falls apart around that pitch count. Macha had to make their only good setup guy Duchscherer throw another inning. Even Kirk friggin Saarloos was more efficient the day before. :thumdown:

Three-way tie for AL Wild Card! :cool:

Oh man how did I miss it. Barry Zito vs. the Angles on 8/30.

9 ip, 1 er, 3 hits

Terrible! How dare he give up that 1 run. And if it would've gone 10 or 11 innings, Zito wouldn't have been able to pitch any further into that game cuz he's so bad after 100 pitches!!!!

Oh and the poor performance against the Yankees last night is the only the 4th time in which he has given up more than 3 runs since APRIL!

Define title, the Indians have a hell of a lot of Divison Title's since 95. Way more than the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros. Don't go rippin on the Browns, cuz the Texans are in the same boat.

Oh and yes I agree with you, that anyone that doesn't live in a city with recent sports teams winning championships, shouldn't be allowed to talk sports. And if you have never won an emmy, you can't talk movies, if you voted for Kerry, you can't talk politics, if you don't have a 30k dollar car, you can't talk about automobiles, if you've never hit a $1000 jackpot on a slot machine, you can't talk about Vegas, if you've never had a hole in one, you can't talk about golf, Etc.
