Too nice

Bud is trying to be more assertive, but it just isn’t in him. He’s not going to pull a Pinella and go and light some ump’s shoes up just because he wants to take the media spotlight away from his players. I dunno, but I’d like to see Buddy rip some bases out of the ground and throw some garbage cans and ball buckets out on the field….

I once had him at 0-2 at Pace’s field (his home field) and I purposely threw the ball 6 inches off the plate thinking I would set him up for a curve….instead I set him up for a 395’ shot to right center… he was the best pure hitter I ever saw, and I used to get to play with a lot of players that were pretty good….

Here comes the Heat:

“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.”

should have been a W for Maddux

Greg had only thrown 70 pitches through five innings. Tony the rally killer flies out with runners on 2nd and 3rd to end the fifth. Corey vultures a win. He pitched well, way to go Bryan. Heat and Trevor lived up to the expectations. The W flag is hanging in Wrigley PETCO

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

The weekend in Seattle went much the same way – big HRs from Adrian to take the lead surrounded by a “lotta nada.” This time the bullpen clicked and it worked out.

A win tomorrow and now we’re talking. :)

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT

Who is watching the interview with Kouz. When she asked him about KT’s comments and he basically said he didn’t even hear about them because he isn’t paying attention?!? Isn’t that exactly the type of thing he was talking about? He is saying how morale is good in the clubhouse, just when KT says he has no idea how in the hell morale could be good? Things are much much worse than we thought then.

but you know the guys in the club house were talking about it. They had a close door meeting before the game. It’s impossible for him not to hear it. He was lying.

i refuse to think he would lie baout that

i mean he would at least say he didn’t know what would be going on or something. im sure not everyone pays attention to rumors going on or anything if they even talk about it in the clubhouse.

Of course he was lying. He would be cut so fast you wouldn’t believe it if he talked about his General Manager on an interview like that. He was smart to ignore her question but at the same time his comments showed that KT is right about the players apathy

why is Kevin Kouzmanoff causing so much controversy

but didn’t someone say they lived by him and he said he didn’t even know Edmonds was released…? maybe he just doesn’t care

but batting around a question is normal for anyone so i don’t think it really matters

either way, its not right to discuss what Towers said, you’re right that he is smart to ignore a question that could screw him
