... -- but now he's becoming known for his baseball skills, as well; the Twins blog Twinkie Town, upcoming the Sox' weekend series in Minneapolis, waxes poetic -- kind of -- about Youk and says its one wish would be for Youkilis to be hitting behind Joe Mauer. (It might have happened, too. Remember those 2005 trade rumors that had Youkilis and Anibal Sanchez going to Minnesota for J.C. Romero? That would have been one for the ages, eh?) And he's one of the reasons Dan Lamothe at Red Sox Monster thinks ...

Sox tie it

Posted 5/10/2008 on Extra Bases

MINNEAPOLIS - Sox wasted little time in tying this game at 2. Kevin Youkilis reached on wild pitch by Boof Bonser on a strikeout and then proceeded to steal second base. Drum roll: It was Boston's 21st consecutive stolen base, which according to Elias, is the most bases stolen consecutively by a Red Sox team ever since it became an official statistic in 1920. After J.D. Drew ...

You Gotta Dig This Team!

Posted 5/5/2008 on Bugs & Cranks

The Detroit Tigers had been on a rush heading into their three game weekend series at the Metrodome — just a game under .500 and coming off their first sweep of the Yankees in New York since the days of Al Kaline. As it turned out, though, the brooms were turned back on them, as Jules Winfield would say — “Di-rectly” and the Twins not only held their own but delivered ...

Metrodome Meltdown: Twins 7, Tigers 6

Posted 5/4/2008 on Bless You Boys: Front Page Posts

Sometimes, you're the broom. Sometimes, you're the dirt. Sweeping the Yankees at Yankee Stadium doesn't seem quite so grand after getting swept in turn by the Twins at the Metrodome. And the way in which the Tigers lost all three games was disturbing enough to make Jim Leyland consider " drastic " changes. More on that later. Detroit jumped on Boof Bonser from the ...

Game 32: Tigers at Twins

Posted 5/4/2008 on The Detroit Tiger Weblog

PREGAME: Coming into this series I was hoping to be talking about a sweep today. Of course I didn’t anticipate it being about sweep-avoidance for the Tigers. It will be Kenny Rogers taking on Boof Bonser. Bonser is coming off his best start of the year. A 1 run, 7 inning, 8 K game. Rogers is also coming off a solid start where he held the Yankees to 2 runs in 6 innings. Jim ...

Game 32: Tigers (14-17) at Twins (15-14)

Posted 5/4/2008 on Bless You Boys: Front Page Posts

Kenny Rogers (2-3, 6.75) vs. Boof Bonser (2-4, 3.75) Last night, Craig Monroe got some revenge on his old team. (Hopefully, that helps the smooth out the bitterness , C-Mo.) Is it too much to ask for the Detroit Tigers to now get some runs? They've only scored two this weekend against the Twins, and Jim Leyland thinks his lineup has been lethargic too many times at ...

Defending the Giants GM

Posted 5/3/2008 on Mojo Blog

William Gum defends the Giants GM Brian Sabean: Trades like Joe Nathan, Francisco Liriano and Boof Bonser for A.J. Pierzynski leave moments for pause. And Sabean’s never-ending revolving door of aging veterans (Michael Tucker, Moises Alou, Omar Vizquel, Steve Finley and Reggie Sanders among others) make you wonder if owner Peter Magowan’s main money-making venture is the ...
