Hosted by the players of Mithyl and Lunora
Weekend of Aug 19/20

Message one of us for more info @ MithylDR or DRLunora

(Marc, you're the grillman... can't wait to see the new baby!)

Actually she's already back in NY.
She's coming up to visit the weekend of the 12th and we'll be stopping by your place that afternoon/evening.

I'll call ya after work tonight to discuss more, or you can IM me if you're on before then.

She did mention to me about this cookout thing and said she'd be coming back for that as well

>>Are you rounding up the usual cast as well?

Other then myself? I think Jonathan and Betsy are the only other people in the area besides Chris and Nora. Want me to give them a call and see if they'll swing by that night with us?

>Anyone yell at mike yet? Or....Frank (hahahaha)?

Mike has been awful whiney about traveling for the last few get-togethers. He also lost his phone, and I don't have his new number.

Frank... I talk with his brother, Andy, and Frank is so whipped he can't change his shorts without asking for permission 2 weeks in advance.

I'm going to laugh all day thinking about those two interpretations. <3 :D

Someone DRAG Adam/Ragran to this thing.

>I talked to him but he said he can't make this one. Maybe the next one though.


He's totally not cool enough, and I think he might be a yankees fan anyways. Speaking of which, did you guys happen to see the schedule that weekend? Friday double header against the yanks, and saturday afternoon fox game. Beer, baseball, meat. Mmmm....

I just dont think we will have any room in the fridge for that crap what with all the Boston Ale.

Chiming in:

>But who would you rather face?

Personally, in order of scariness.

Posada - This guy is as scary as a cloudy day
Sheffield - From the DL? Funny part is he's scarier than POSada from there.
Cano - Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then. I'd put Wily Mo Pena here as well, and I think in the future both will move up.
Varitek - Switch hitter (+ points), horrible average and OBP this year (- points)
Giambi - Yeah, when he hits (or doesn't walk) it's usually big.
Rodriguez/Damon - Too streaky for a higher scary factor... Which ARod will show up? Damon plays hurt far too much for his salary.
Manny - If he weren't denting cars in the parking lot 1/5 AB's he'd be lower for effort/wackiness.
Jeter/Matsui - Consistancy. 'Nuff said. Yeah, I know I slammed Sheff for being on the DL... Matsui is a way better hitter.
Ortiz - Mr. Clutch. Hands down.

I'll reserve judgement on Abreau until I see some him against some more AL pitching.

>As for pitching both teams still need effective pitching and deeper bullpens

When Jared Wright is the 2nd best pitcher behind Mussina, it's time to cut some salary and eat the losses that the YES network pays for anyway. As a Soxfan, I encourage all NYY player transactions to originate in Florida. :D

As far as Schill/Beckett ... I think we are seeing what we expected (and we got the better deal from the Marlins by a mile!). Run support for Wakefield has been atrocious. Clement and Wells have little to be proud of.

Timlin will get overused because Tavares, Foulke, and Seanez SUCK.

Poor Wake....



>You've gained a new rank in your ability to steal.

Yea, he had a really great year last year, which was awesome to see. For someone who's been with the team so long and been loyal to them (ie - taking paycuts to stay with the team) it was great. Especially as he's getting up there in the years. Pretty sure he turns 40 this month or something. Hopefully this back issue won't be one that plagues him for the rest of his career. He's ma boy!

>You've gained a new rank in your ability to steal.

>Boston 3 games back!

Thats called a loan. We'll be needing that back in October. Thanks.

:D

>Sorry Boston's only allowed 1 Yankee choke and 1 World Series per century

Hahaha, at least it was THE choke of the century.

Still waiting on directions and whether or not you want me to bring anything. I know how to get to the town, but other then that I don't know where in it you guys are.

:)

Tom

I need a chat Miss Nora, or Mister Chris. I -may- have a conflict, depending on times. I'll try to get on IM this weekend sometime. Either of you could call me also.

>Ok, just don't loan the Yankees too much like the Red Sox did for the past 5 games or you won't be seeing you guys this post season.

Thanks for the tip. :P

At least good came out of this disaster... Seanez and Johnson are gone! YAY!

More proof that even the blind squirrel finds a nut once every 86 years.
