When the HALOS had to have this guy win games(in August and early -mid september 2006) to deal with a hot A'S team,he wore skirt.As soon as the race was decided,he found his game,and gave up just 1 hit.He was hurting? bullshit..he was under pressure to win.Oakland put him under pressure each start,and he gave it up.

John Lackey in the postseason ( a little pressure...)

2-1 3.26 era (not too bad for 8 games)

8 games...3 decisions...Yes,that's the guy."Not too bad" ....correct,he is not too bad.All I am saying is I can't rely on the guy in August/1st half of September.Was horrible last year during that stretch(when pressured by a streaking A's club,) and it was the worst part of his season this year,too(even though his team was leading all the way,and was not really pressured .)

Actually,I see the guy I am talking about....look at the 2005 post season.That's the guy I see in August/1st part of September.He does exist.The guy you're talking about pitched good in the 2002 post season.Be nice to see that guy show up in this year's post.Again,I would not count on it........Big Maybe..I am pretty sure that this is the guy who pitched poorly in the 1st few innings in the Friday night ALCS game against the Chisox.Remember that? They just got ripped off by the cheating catcher of the Chisox..They needed Lackey to pick them up.I remember it now....That's your clutch guy? Wasn't clutch in that one,and wasn't clutch in 2006 race for the division. 8 earned runs in 16 innings....10 walks...I know that one.Seen too much of that version of him.

MLB suspended umpire Mike Winters for the rest of the season for his conduct during Sunday's game against the Padres.

No suspension at all for Bradley, though one could say he already received his punishment. For MLB to come down like this, Winters must have said some pretty nasty things. We hope that if the remarks were truly racist, Bud Selig and company would be sure to get rid of him in the offseason.

If it was racist,I think Bradley would surely repeated it for the media on Sunday.He told ya what the fan said ..."Ump You Suck." I think it would have been under control if Bradley didn't openly affirm what the fan yelled.When have you seen a player do that? Are you really surprised that an ump would have a big problem with that.Getting a fan involved in a argument between two professionals? Are you kidding me? Then(in response) the ump said "that's bullshit,Bradley." I think the reason why the ump got suspended was for arguing(talking trash...whatever) when the pitcher was about to pitch.I mean that was pretty long after the ball was live.Bradley was way off the base,and trying to do his job,and the ump was talking stuff.Regardless of content,the ump can't be talking trash when the ball is about to be in play.Again,I think Bradley is a real nice hitter who plays very hard(that right there puts him in the top 5 % of players in the league.) For him to say "I did nothing wrong" shows a very common defect that's present in a lot of hotheads.They fail to be able to accept that they do stuff that's unacceptable to many people.Since it's acceptable to them,then they say "I did nothing wrong." For instance,look at the starter for that wild scene on Sunday.What was it? In Milton's twisted mind it's the umpire at 1st base(telling the home plate ump that Milton tossed the bat at him.) He (like most hotheads) can't accept the fact they really started the whole thing.He threw the bat too close to somebody(who just called him out on strikes.) That's the person who 1st did something wrong....HIM....HE NEEDS TO LOOK AT HIMSELF.HE CAN'T MENTALLY DO THAT.THIS IS THE PROBLEM. A person like this will always have trouble,because they blame their own messes on anybody but themselves.This is the defect you heard come to the surface late in the interview Sunday. He fell right into the whole "why is it about me" and "when do I get a break." That's illness.It's a little amusing ,because it's so far off from reality.This is very common in one group of people(for sure.)They are what is called "control freaks." They also often have some of that handwashing(ocd) stuff mixed in,too. They are virtually never gunna admit they are wrong.They are constantly in disagreements because they don't follow accepted ways of doing things.They will do stuff like take money for something,and then not sign the contract they agreed to sign.The person who needs the contract signed will then be made out to be "selfish," "impatient" etc. Really .That's the bullshit they do. Then,if they finally sign the contract ,it will be "are you happy now?"..... Crazy fckrs

Well we all already know about Bradley. Throwing bats close to people. The umpires need to get together and present this problem and confront Bradley.

But in this case, clearly Winters was in the wrong. The first base coach was confronting Winters before Bradley was in his bull charge towards him. That first base coach said that just wasn't right on Winters part.
