Brian

As bad as Mark has been, if our defense was better behind him, he only gives up 4 runs.

Just put Getz in for the rest of the year, please.

STFU Hawk

Hilarious. They lean over the plate and get hit, get first, Paulie plunked on the foot, doesn't get first.

Lisa Dergen is even pretty without make up. Sheesh.

I think I dropped my brush in this box.

Hope he goes away. He has gotten a free pass for awhile.

QUOTE (chunk23 @ Aug 7, 2009 -> 02:18 PM) A FB pitcher at NYS sounds like a recipe for disaster, especially one fresh off the dl. He is a sinker/slider pitcher

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 7, 2009 -> 11:46 AM) An expensive reliever coming off injury? Pass! Who knows how hard he can throw now as well.

I feel awful for laughing at this one.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Aug 7, 2009 -> 11:33 AM) We suck against Pavano. This is a good thing. Yeah, maybe we can face him in the dome in Sept.

I'd rather have him back for the boston/NY road trip.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 6, 2009 -> 06:47 PM) You mean doubles into singles and triples into doubles? I think he meant on defense.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 05:44 PM) Keep in mind: Mike Caruso hit .306 in his rookie year with 22 SB (far more than Gordon will swipe this year) and how'd that work out? Lets simmer down with the Beckman love people. I vaguely remember Caruso's rookie year. Was he a double machine like GBeck?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 09:45 PM) I don't know why but this made me lol. It made me squirm.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 09:43 PM) They are 4-2 against the Yankees and 4-2 against Boston this year. Those 2 are almost locks to be in the postseason. Boston owns them in the post season though. Let's finish this sweep off tomorrow. I'll be there, so we probably will.

Abreu just got flat out worked OVER!

Inning should be ovah

QUOTE (Paint it Black @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 08:51 PM) Really? Mike Shannon is like Hawk x10000000000 with the umpires. He's also Cardinals Ron Santo. No thanks. No way. While Shannon maybe a homer, he is half the homer Hawk is. He played with the Cardinals. He has been with that organization forever. Hawk never played for us. Shannon is also 100x more entertaining than Hawk, IMO.

Thome will hit #600 next week.

QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 08:47 PM) Where would you rank the Sox broadcast among major league broadcasts? I don't get to hear EVERY TV booth. Stone adds so much credibility. I think he makes the Sox top 10, IMO. I hate both NY broadcasts.

QUOTE (Stocking @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 08:43 PM) I really like angles broadcasts, non biased and very comlimentary Agreed. I like them and St. Louis the best. Cardinals radio with Rooney and Shannon rules.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 08:40 PM) Floyd's ERA is 3.00 a game lower at home vs. on the road. Most of the Sox starters have lower ERA's at home. I think Peay will be just fine at USCF. Peavy has a nasty sinker/slider. He'll be fine here.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 08:38 PM) When was the last time Vlad was healthy? Seems like forever. Maybe 05. Another double for Beckham...yawn.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Aug 5, 2009 -> 07:04 PM) why? They're s***. That's not the point. He appears to have turned a corner in his very, very young career. Could be a blip but probably not, probably a sign of things to come. Danny Wright had two good starts in his career as well.
