*Official* Roger Clemens Comeback thread.

Im hijacking this to b*tch about tonights game.

Way to go PRESTON WILSON. 4-1 Astros 7th inning. Roy Oswalt on the mound. 1 out. Twins have runners on 1st and 2nd.

Base hit to left field, P-Dog comes up throwing HOME (His throw is 10 feet up the first base line from the shallow Minute Maid LF), so it's 4-2 and the guy on 1st and the batter now end up at 2nd and 3rd instead of 1st and 2nd (keeping the 1-out double play in tact).

Next batter, tailor-made grounder to Everett for what should be the inning-ending double play but now he gets the 2nd out at first, and the guy at third scores making it 4-3. Guy on 2nd moves to third. Next batter gets a hit to tie the game.

Thanks Preston. We're up by three runs against the lowly Twins late in the game with out Ace on the mound. Real quality idea to try to throw out the guy at home. Be a HERO!

He is less than useless. Get him off this team. He's cancerous. SEND HIM TO THE REDS OR CARDINALS so he can f*ck up their world for us. Effing fundamental A-ball decision to throw in to third base and keep the 1-out DP intact. Heck, that's high school fundamentals. The guy does not use his head. Sports require mental exercise, not just physical. Oh, and also thanks for the 6th inning double play ball Preston, on a fastball up and away. Only a crappy hitter like you can manage to pound that ball into the ground to the shortstop. Next time a runner is on first and you are up, just strike out please.

OK I feel better now. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Who will retire first: Clemens or Brett Favre?

Yep. I knew he wanted to be the hero tonight. I'm thrilled to see that our bullpen will get overtime though....

ok..Morneau just homered. I'm going to go punch myself in the face to numb the pain.

[challenger84]

lol @ a houston fan calling the twins "lowly"

[THAY3R]

Yea, that is rather funny.

[Aceshigh7]

That game was pathetic. Why in the hell does Trever Miller still have a job in this league? If the best we can do for left handed specialists is Miller & Gallo, I say go without a lefty in the pen. It can't hurt us any more than these guys already are.

[prohornblower]

Aces, I think Miller is pretty quality. Although I don't know his stats off the top of my head, but what I've seen of him appears to be satisfactory at least.

I totally didn't blame this loss on him. I blame it all on the shoulders of Preston Wilson. One horrible horribly fundamental mistake, and even the worst teams are going to make you pay.

I hope Oswalt ran over him with his tractor. The guy is an absolute sickness. PUT BURKE IN LEFT EVERY F(((ING GAME and let P-Dog ride the BENCH. Maybe he'll learn something. I seriously can't even believe this guy was a centerfielder before. You would have thought he was a ballboy before the astros got him or something.

Should be a great matchup w/ Liriano going for us. I wouldn't be suprised to see Clemens get seriously outpitched [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

then again, it's hard to do get outpitched when you're pitching against the twins offense...:P

[/ QUOTE ]

the offense has been playing much better of late, Morneau, Mauer, Kubel have been doing very good lately

Liriano will pitch better than Clemens, I'm thinking 4-2 Twins to get to 10straight wins [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

[Aceshigh7]

Tonight's the night!!!!! Come on Rocket!

So much for 10 straight wins for the Twins. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
