Actually he has been on the DL waaaaaaaaaay b4 the ASB my friend. Still, good prediction and you easily get :thumb::thumb: for that.

I tell ya Mr.T, you sure know how to push the buttons of our 2 homer red sox fans tonight tho, took one only 2 minutes to respond to the quote below and the other about 15 minutes. (word has it one would of responded sooner but was busy deleting other posts from the last 24 hours, that and he had to get a new comfy seat for the fence)

Bawhahahahaha!!!!!, actually iggy, don't ask me how I got it but I was able to get a picture of the person that you are referring to.

Do you know this person?


BTW - Nice line by Mr. Pineda tonight, slowly but surely he looks like he is finding his groove, meanwhile any updates on the physically unable, rotting, corpse of Clay(disabled) Buchholz?, I'm always checking the wire for his retirement announcement.

Harvey Explains Praise For Jeter- Getting It Done On Field and In Bedroom

http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/metsb...at_jeter_7dbqTrCEHinjf50ExtWvYJ#axzz2ZSGnfsYw

It’s OK, Matt. You were just saying what every other guy feels.

Mets phenom Matt Harvey was quoted in a Men’s Journal profile Wednesday saying that he looked up to Yankee star Derek Jeter as the “model” playboy – he bags beautiful women and their mugs don’t end up all over the tabloids.

The right-hander, who started Tuesday night’s MLB All-Star Game, is now backtracking from that statement.

Maybe Harvey, 24, was stepping off because he’s currently dating Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Anne Vyalitsyna, a gorgeous blonde he met while attending Rangers games.

He hasn’t exactly been discreet about things, either. Anne V was at the All-Star Parade with him Tuesday and this month he was featured nude in ESPN The Magazine’s “Body Issue” – something Jeter has never done.

"That guy is the model," Harvey told Men’s Journal. "I mean, first off, let's just look at the women he's dated. Obviously, he goes out – he's meeting these girls somewhere – but you never hear about it. That's where I want to be."

Hey BOYZ,

Boys, you are about to witness a collapse of epic, monumental proportions, let the games begin and enjoy the second half of the season, I know I will.

Well sir egg-on-face Joe, while you guys were getting off on Jeter's girlfriend photo, and laughably gloating over minor league stats like A-Rods .170 AVG :lol: the Yankees continued their COLLAPSE tonight. It really wasn't because of Pettitte. If the Yankees could provide any kind of real run support...well...who are we kidding. It's the sad-hitting Yankees. They couldn't even touch the ball for about 5 innings. It's hard to believe there could be a worse hitting team in the league when the Yanks set the standards so embarrassingly low.

Joe.t as always Just "good-natured ribbing" bro.

BTW: Jeter's on the DL again. OMG! He's played ONE damn game, none before the the ASG voting closed and still got 1.3 million votes. Yankees fans are classless and hopeless.

You better pray Kuroda is on tomorrow.

Cheers chumps,

Merlot

PS

Watch daddy come running to help you. :thumb:

What a boring A** game at the dump tonight, geesh!

Hey BOYZ,Well sir egg-on-face Joe, while you guys were getting off on Jeter's girlfriend photo, and laughably gloating over minor league stats like A-Rods .170 AVG

Ho-hum, another day, another beatdown of the hapless, light-hitting, fading Yankees.

Question for the day: how many Yankee pitchers have more wins than Clay Buchholz, who has missed over a month.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Expos Nation has arrived in Toronto!

Expos Nation is out in full force today @Rogers Centre in Toronto, in town to catch the Jays/Rays game. The 6:45 am Mtl-TO train was sold-out this morning when it departed downtown Montreal. Concerns earlier when the train was delayed in Kinsgston due to a technical problem. However, the train made it to Union Station & Expos Nation has entered Rogers Centre!! Go Expos!! Go Jays Go!!!

p.s. Strange coincidence that the game chosen for this event was a game against Tampa Bay.

And may not ever come back again, if I were the Red Sox I would seriously try and cut my losses and trade him, I guarantee that the Red Sox would come out ahead with whoever they get in return.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Mr. T, i agree that the time is now for the Sox to trade Bucholz since they'd likely get a lot in return for him. He's not a durable pitcher & will likely spend a lot of time on the DL for various ailments for the rest of his career, which is unfortunate since the guy can pitch (even though he's been caught doctoring the ball a few times, but let's face it, he's not alone in doing so) and he'd be the ace of the staff for most teams in MLB.

On another note, I'm pulling for the Yankees to hold on to their current lead against the Red Sox, who trail the Yanks 4-2 going into the 8th. Beating the Red Sox would be great for the Yankees' morale. The Sox have nothing to worry about, they'll likely win their division unless Tampa gives them a good run for the money come August.

However, there's always September.........

On another note, Andrew Bailey will likely undergo surgery & if so, will likely miss most of the 2014 season. What a bust this once-promising closer has been for the Sox!

 

[Special K]

I tend to agree with moving Buchholz as long as they can get something to make it worth it. He's way too fragile, like a piece of glass and to be honest, I don't like his lack of fire and desire. A couple Boston sportscasters do a great job of summing him up in this clip. Give it a listen. http://nyc.podcast.play.it/media/d0...U&utm_source=CBSBoston.com&utm_medium=twitter

 

[Joe.t]

Ouch!!!!, nasty, nasty, nasty, nasty commentators in Boston K, but so true in what they said about him, they are only repeating what I have always said about this overrated bum , Boston needs to haul his fragile ass out of Beantown, maybe they can trade him to some team for a bag of bats.

 

[Doc Holliday]

I'm reminded of Carl Pavano or Kevin Brown whenever i hear Bucholz' name being mentionned. Come to think of it, he would look pretty damn good in pinstripes!

 

[Special K]

When he's on he's on though. This season he's been pretty stellar...when healthy. Hasn't pitched in at least a month and still has more wins than any Yankee pitcher....oh wait, same number as CC.

 

[lgna69xxx]

Oooooopsss! red sox won 2 out of 3 vs. the Yanks... i guess that means (awol) jayman will return soon, :lol:

 

[rumpleforeskiin]

The whole notion of dealing Buchholz is ludicrous. You don't trade an injured player. You couldn't get value for him.

However, at least the Sox COULD trade Buchholz. The Yankees couldn't give Sabathia away without eating the bulk of his contract. Talk about the very picture of suckitude. $23 million for a .500 pitcher.

$128,000,000 on te active roster and out of the race before the first of Ausust. Pitiful. Cashman and Girardi should be fired today, not tomorrow, today.

 

[Doc Holliday]

Bucholz has an appointment scheduled with Dr. James Andrews. History tells me that this isn't good news & that he'll likely spend longer time on the DL. I wouldn't be surprised if he misses the rest of the season. Hopefully he won't have to go under the knife.

 

[rumpleforeskiin]

Nope, any time the name Dr. Andrews comes up, it's never good. It's like when Joe's phone rings and he sees that it's his bookie on the line.

The Sox have said repeatedly that this visit is just for reassurance but we'll see.

I read the other day that there are 124 pitchers in the majors now who have had TJ.

 

[Merlot]

Hey BOYZ!

Oooooopsss! red sox won 2 out of 3 vs. the Yanks...

What...no Yankees playoffs count down...no Red Sox collapse baloney from Joe. :lol:

The Yankees couldn't give Sabathia away without eating the bulk of his contract. Talk about the very picture of suckitude. $23 million for a .500 pitcher.

$128,000,000 on te active roster and out of the race before the first of August. Pitiful. Cashman and Girardi should be fired today, not tomorrow, today.

Napoli...Napoli...Napoli...and the Yankees go down. The Yankees were lucky to stay in the game due to an exceptionally rare throwing error by Iglesias one of the best fielders in the game. But Napoli, who has been working hard on pure contact sure showed how well it works against Yankee pitching.

As for Sabathia, the big invulnerable horse, as EB loves to describe him, doesn't have the same stuff any more. The numbers, with a rising ERA and Rising BA against him, show he's declining to no better than a number 3 pitcher at this time. He's tied for second in giving up the most home runs, and he threw 100 pitches giving up 7 earned runs in 5 innings.

Is there a Yankee conspiracy going on with A-Rod or is his body breaking down per roids? There's lots of speculation that the Yankees are playing up questionable injuries for insurance money, especially since A-Rod claimed to be ready to return and was rudely told by Cashman to STFU!!!. If this was the Red Sox our friend Joe.t would be screaming...Dirtiest, Rotten, Cheating team in HISTORY...and Iggy would be kissing his ass. However, as usual I go with the facts and the likelihood. A-Rod continues to weaken and break down. In his latest interviews he seems to losing muscle mass. Is it age? Or the loss of his little helpers? :eyebrows: I say his further decline is very real.

PEDROIA:

The word on WEEI today was Pedey and the Red Sox are discussing a long term contract for something in the neighborhood of $20 million per year. This seems a bit high on the surface except for several important points. The least of which is he gave the Sox a big hometown discount last time. Better points are, outstanding fielding, great contact hitter, decent power, work ethic practically unheard of (the joke is you have to shoot him to get him to take a day off), never takes a play off unlike Cano (according to many critics) at times, terrific leader and clubhouse motivator, only Cano can compare in production from the 2nd base position. I just hope it isn't too long, 5-6 maximum.

Whatever Pedroia gets Cano will drive the Yankees crazy demanding more because of his better power numbers.

Cheers,

Merlot
