on a side note, i like pedroia, he plays the game the way you're supposed to, he's a gritty kid.
CONGRATS to buchholz!!!!! AMAZING STUFF. i posted that last post in the 6th inning. No hitter in his second start, simply amazing!!!! |

i know about the game, but why hats off to pedroia and crisp. Crisp didn't seem to have a particularly magical game given his numbers, and pedroia only had two singles. |

Sorry James I should have explained...Check out the vids...Crisp was exeptonal in centre field..Pedroia made the most spectacular play at second base that I have ever seen... |

Oh, you know how i love solid fielding. Crisp is an excellent CF'er. It's a shame he's been at the plate. Well, actually it's a good thing for us yankees fans.
As for pedroia, i already wrote how i feel about that kid.
I'll watch that clip now.
EDIT: the site doesn't have that clip. I guess after gay ass football is off ESPN I can see the highlights |

| Just saw the clip...nice stop. I wouldn't say the best play, but definitely a 9/10. It was even more impressive because of the situation. I have yet to see crisps play. |

I just watched a synopsis of the game, phenominal stuff from this kid. His curve ball is SICK!!!!! It's 12-6 and drops about two feet. I'm happy for the kid, just another dimension to this rivalry.
It's a shame (for sox fans) the sox got rid of hanley. You guys would be absoutely sick with him on your team. Lugo is such a hole in your lineup. Plus the sox may not need beckett in a few years with some of the talent coming up the pipe. What do you think Ben? |

Wow....Clay Buchholz is the real deal....Ben, i bet your creaming over this dude! |
It was awesome! It was the first time I ever watched a no hitter live and it had all the ingredients (great pitching, defense and favorable strike calls). I am already boasting to anyone who will listen that this is the best arm our farm system has produced since Clemens. His stuff is just electric, great offspeed stuff and an uncanny ability to locate his fastball.
And yeah, I agree with you completely. Both the Yanks and the Sox are producing a lot of great homegrown talent. I feel sorry for everybody else in the AL East and even the whole American League for that matter.
I'm psyched! |

his curveball reminds me of Zito's in his Cy Young season. The difference is this kid can bring the heat and zito was never really able to go over 90. |

Jacoby Ellsbury has also come in and delivered big late in the season for us.
I think if the Red Sox do end up holding onto the East it will be in large part due to the boost they've received from young talent coming up from Pawtucket and coming up huge down the stretch.
MVPs???
AL - A-Rod (I'm sorry to say but this is a no brainer).
NL - Chase Utley. He's hitting .340 and will end up scoring and driving in 100 with 20 Home Runs and, wait for it, he missed a month with a broken hand.
edm edit: I'm two weeks away from catching Tiesto followed by Ferry in DC (Gouryella 2k7). I'm cramming with ISOS6 and Magik 7. You know you're addicted when you prepare for big shows as if they were some type of examination lol |

Jake Peavy is my NL MVP - Hes a shoe in for the Cy Young. If he can keep it together for the rest of the year... 17/18W, 2.00 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, 250K's... ridiculous numbers.
Although ARod should be the runaway MVP, theres gonna be alot of people on the Magglio bandwagon. |
