HawkLaw Big Dipper Registered: 12/03/05 Loc: Lawrence, KS USA	I love seeing pitchers retaliate for being shown up. You could argue why doesn't he "just strike the guy out next time." Even a dominant pitcher like Beckett can't strike somebody out on a whim. Just hit the guy to give him a reminder of your memory as a pitcher. But always hit in the back or the ass/thigh, throwing at somebody's head intentionally is cowardly. _________________________ Never trust a man who hasn't been arrested at least once.

Lofton didn't pull "this crap" in 2005. Lofton does this for every walk he receives. As much as I am in favor of pitcher retaliation. I do believe Beckett, as pumped as he was [he threw a brilliant game], did overreact on the Lofton bat-flip. Seriously, a walk is a free base, he has to put his bat somewhere. Might as well put it on homeplate with his leg guard so the bat boy can collect it. _________________________ Never trust a man who hasn't been arrested at least once.

I have no problem with not travelling with your team in between outings, but damnit go to spring training, work out with your team, be there for opening day, and earn your full check. _________________________ Never trust a man who hasn't been arrested at least once.

HawkLaw Big Dipper Registered: 12/03/05 Loc: Lawrence, KS USA	I guess I could add to my above post...Clemens is a POS and Schilling is a gamer. Lofton...different people have different mannerisms. I was impressed with Beckett last night, he just yelled at Lofton a little bit the Lofton escalated it in my opinion. _________________________ Never trust a man who hasn't been arrested at least once.

Griffey has watched almost every homerun he's hit...Bonds, enough said...Beckett screams after a big strike outs, which pisses a lot of people off and I think it happened last night... _________________________ Never trust a man who hasn't been arrested at least once.

jdavis34 Pure Jayhawk Registered: 02/15/07 Loc: Lawrence, KS	You can't deny Beckett has intensity though. I'm glad to see it, because it shows that he actually cares about winning the Series, and not the ALCS, the World Series. Beckett has been a blessing. And quinn, funny with kenny being kenny. Whatever, it's not a big deal. Kenny needs to retire soon, and they won't see each other (hopefully Dice-K and lester get it down Sunday) again. Manny needs to have a monster game tomorrow. Carmona needs to get rattled early. No more double plays, Sox. That's what's killing you...Thing is, Carmona is a good ground ball pitcher. Okay, lots of doubles, no singles Sawx...Walks are okay because they raise pitch counts. Earlier they get to the bullpen, the better. Unless of course, its' Bettancourt, who scares the shi- out of me. That dude can pitch. _________________________ http://rockchalkjayblog.blogspot.com/ http://tedwilliamsfrozenhead.blogspot.com/

HawkLaw Big Dipper Registered: 12/03/05 Loc: Lawrence, KS USA	Although it may not be expressed, I have tried to imply in every post of how good of a pitcher Beckett is. His showing in the playoffs, Red Sox and Marlins, give credibility to him. Some of the most beloved pitchers have been mediocre regular season pitchers, but dominant in the post-season. I know if I had made it to the bigs, and I had a choice, I would want to be clutch in the post-season. Manny is Manny...Manny is tied for the longest hitting streak in LCS history (Pete Rose: HOF'r) As far as Carmona, seriously where did he come from. He was seriously the worst pitcher on the Indians last year, as a reliever. I won't throw in the Gagne/Carmona comparison, you should already know. Carmona is a sinker ball pitcher, a lot of ground balls if he gets his way. If he leaves a few sinkers hanging, pretty much the whole Sox lineup can take care of it. _________________________ Never trust a man who hasn't been arrested at least once.

jammahawk Prairie Warrior Registered: 01/02/05 Loc: In the Corleone compound	Quote: Okay, where's the b!itching about Lofton's bush league bat flip on what he thought was ball four? I called it - the dude's been making that move and annoying pitchers for years. Glad to see Beckett call him out on it. It's up to Beckett, is he too much of a pu$$y to put Lofton on his a$$ by pitching inside? Do you think Gibson or Drysdale would put up with that? _________________________ " Stay thirsty my friends ".

While we're at it, why don't we sharpen our spikes, intentionally hit the catcher in the back swing, and gasp put to much pine tar on our bat.
