The New York express hit a snag . . .

Sox have Gagne deal
Eric Gagne has reportedly agreed to come to the Red Sox and be the setup man, according to NESN's Tom Caron. The Sox would send outfield prospects David Murphy and Engel Beltre, along with pitcher Kason Gabbard, to Texas.

To basically turn games into 6-inning contests for their opponents.

Seriously Matt. Why were the Yankees so quiet?
They clearly needed more help in the bullpen than we did. What's their thinking here?

All this is going to do is make sure that Torre doesn't came back to the Yankees next year to manage.

I had a good time last weekend, telling all the Yankee fans at Friday night's game that Guthrie and Bedard were better than anyone their team has could ever hope to be. How was your weekend?

Clemens rocked giving up 9 hits and 8 runs in an inning and two third

Whooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. .. SPLAT!

[redlegsfan21]

Whooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. .. SPLAT!

And it was only 8-8 after 2.

[KenFougere]

The game was tied after 2, and still winnable . . .

And it was only 8-8 after 2.

I believe Clemens is still a good pitcher, although grossly overpaid. Yesterday's game was lost, not so much by Clemens' effort, but by poor defense behind him and (as usual) their incredibly weak bullpen . . .

Ok, I now you guys are upset about the huge lead we have in the AL East, but, Mr. Cashman... Sending an assassin after Coco? C'mon now.

Coco Was Clipped
SEATTLE -- Coco Crisp couldn't avoid the contact

"Yeah the [Mariner] Moose clipped me," he said of the team's costumed mascot.

At first, it didn't look like the Moose-driven all-terrain vehicle had barely missed him in the fifth inning.

But after the game Crisp said he heard the Moose, the Mariners mascot, coming, but didn't see him. "Yeah I hit the ground, but my knee didn't touch, so I kept running," he said.

He said he wasn't hit flush by the all-terrain in the left knee area. He said he was fine.

Terry Francona said Mariners executive vice president of baseball operations Bill Bavasi telephoned the dugout two minutes after the incident and apologized.

Crisp finished the game. "it was just an accident," he said.

Asked if and the Moose would have dinner on the Red Sox next trip here, Crisp smiled and said, "Yeah, moose jerky."

Here's a mugshot of that cold hearted killer:

I just got back from being away from baseball all weekend. How'd Schill do on his return?

Batista almost got Crisp with a 55 foot curve ball.

Mariner Moose Dates Jessica Simpson ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Mariner Moose is denying that he dates Jessica Simpson but it's too late - he's already been mercilessly sucked in to her publicity vortex, grounded into hamburger, and spit out like he's just another Nick Lachey.
Jessica Simpson has fired her publicist, Rob Shuter, over his handling of U.S. media claims that the pop singer was dating the Mariner Moose, a report says. E! Online reported that Joe Simpson, Jessic's father, fired Shuter this week over the publicist`s alleged mishandling of last week`s rumors that his famous daughter and the Mariner Moose are seeing each other. Rumors have been flying at Safeco Field recently. Groundskeepers and others have witnessed a sudden extra spring in the Moose's step the past few weeks. Some people are concerned about the Moose. Maintenance personel noticed that the governor put on the Moose's three wheel motorized vehicle has been removed. The Moose has cancelled his regular visits to Children's Hospital and the Ronald Mc Donald House. One citizen reported that he watched the Moose down a quad Mocha Breve On Ice in less than a minute at Tully's Coffee. A high ranking Mariner personel, refused comment Sunday.

Cute.

Well, certainly not as bad as Chien-Ming Wang did.
Allowing a career-high eight runs and nine hits over 2 2/3 innings, his shortest career outing . . .

You know that Theo was the one who ordered it don't you

[Solair Wright]

Now, I have a question to ask. It was about last night in Toronto. Anyhow, here's the question:

How did Chien-Mien Wang fare last night against the Toronto Blue Jays? Don't be shy, answer the question!

[Louisiana Lightning]

It's about that time of the year again folks.



Answer this question. Hmmm
