Archives League Championship Series - Day 2 - Fate Carries a Dominican Passport
Since we've been way late with these lately, I thought I'd post this really early for a change.

Two games today, both at 8:00PM

Pedro Martinez vs. Jon Lieber in Game 2 of the ALCS
Brandon Backe vs. Woody Williams in Game 1 of the ALCS

Until then read Spencer Fordin's article about the six Jays players who were taken off the 40 man roster.

Be sure to catch the pre-game show with Mike Wilner starting at 7PM on The Fan 590. Tonight's guest is Orlando Hudson.

Moffatt, that's a great headline.
I have nothing else to add, but that needed saying.

In case people can't find the FAN 590 link, COMN for the link.
First thing I heard when I clicked that to make sure it worked? Hockey. Of course.

Thanks Mick!

I love those cheesy 70's TV episode names like "Death Drives a Stick" (okay, that was the Simpsons, but still)

I am simply appreciative that Mike managed to keep the word "Daddy" out of not only the hed, but the entire post!

P.S. he don't need any extra "H's" against that Sox lineup ... it's Jon Lieber.

Am I the only one who can't hear a word the O-Dog is saying?

I only tuned in for O-Dog's last answer, but I make it out perfectly clearly. The guy said he thought O-Dog would make a great leadoff hitter and he asked if O-Dog agreed. Orlando said that he expected to hit 2nd, 6th or 7th, but that he's happy to hit anywhere in a major league lineup.

If Schilling indeed is not going to pitch again in this series... well, all previous predictions are Inoperative.

Well, Pedro's stuff looked just filthy in that inning. Toobad it took him the first two hitters to get some control over it.

Phil Garner would like to forget that inning.

I just noticed Tom Gordon has a moustache..... is he the only Yankee? Why is he allowed to have facial hair? Wow, that was a surprising discovery...

Yankees are allowed facial hair, just not below the ears.

What if they have really BIG ears?

PS. Beer Club was fun, we'll try to give the rest of you who couldn't make it this time, more heads up as that was a common reason.

With Pete Munro going tomorrow, the Astros could be looking at the same scenrio as the Red Sox; going home down 2-0.

Being too lazy to look it up, is Pete Munro an ex-Jay, or am I insane? (heck, or is it both, for that matter)

Anyone else having trouble figuring out where the strike zone is?

Wasn't Peter Munro the one who wore #69 for a brief period?
[ Reply to This ]
_6-4-3 - Wednesday, October 13 2004 @ 11:54 PM EDT (#26468) #
Yep, Munro was a Jay, and he wore #69 for part of 1999, then switched to #13.

Hey, maybe all those crazy Skydome renovations we dreamed up in a thread last month might come true after all.

Horray, no more sportsco with there crappy concessions and insistance that a new jumbotron is the skydomes #1 priority.

Last night's game illustrated why the Yankees are so tough. The key players, Lieber and Olerud, were wise relatively low-cost acquisitions by Cashman. A smart general manager who has the dollars to spend can go a long way- that is a lesson we know all too well in Toronto.

Yeah, the plate ump was having this exact same problem.

All I have to say is that Peter from Kitchener had a very intelligent question for Alex Rios during the pre-game show for game 1 of the Yanks/Sox :)

Care to expand on that Jaysfan or is that facetiousness I detect?

_Jays1fan1 - Friday, October 15 2004 @ 08:52 AM EDT (#26477) #
The 3rd caller, or as I referred to as, 'Peter from Kitchener' was me.

I asked Alex Rios what other prospects he saw comming up through the system we should look out for. He said Aaron Hill, and everyone else we have pretty much already seen this past year.
