For Nightengale to have recorded these quotes, he must have slipped a microphone into Arroyo's bong, or somehow wired the thing to record audio.

Tell 'em why you mad Brandon

So Mr. Verlander just struck out Jason Bay to end the 8th inning with a 100 mph heater. Ridiculous.

I wish Verlander could stay in to finish this off, but 123 pitches is too many. PED Sox need to lose this game.

I applaud his outspokenness, but I can't shake the feeling that this will end poorly for Mr. Arroyo. Brutal honesty always seems to bring trouble.

[5] It's not going to improve his "tradeability" if you know a 50 game suspension is one piss cup away.

7 Shaun P.   ~  Aug 13, 2009 4:37 pm

[6] You're right, but would anyone really take on his contract? Especially an AL team, given how poorly he's pitched in the NL?

And I notice the Red Sox lost. A win tonight would be quite nice, CC.

[7] I was VERY worried the Yanks were going to take it on.

I hate going to bed before the end of West Coast games, but maybe my kids will help out with a 3am call to duty and I can check the score then.

well i guess brandon just believes in putting it all out there.
[5] agree shaun - this is going to be some kind of trouble for him.
[8] me too - those rumors were scary. let's hope this interview squashed the idea of that even being entertained ever again.

re: Arroyo. Poor Mikey Francesca. The way he waxes poetic about him you'd think he was his godson.

I hate west coast trips! But here it kind of works out. Doing my 3-stadium tour this weekend and won't have much time to follow Yanks anyhow.

[10] You mean he isn't?

"Miked Up Moron" must have put down a big bet on him becoming a Yankee...

I'd have to check a lot out, but it seems the Sox, even in their Wins, are having trouble getting double digit hits in most of their games.

They now have 3 games coming with/in Texas, without Youk. Lets hope the Rangers can put a Smackdown on them.

The Michael Kay drinking game. Pretty funny.

[14] Holy shit! My liquor costs would skyrocket and I'd be drunk by the second inning! We at home have a similar one for Emeril Live. Just drink a lot really fast when the show starts...
