QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:23 PM) since when did straight 94 mph fastballs with 0 offspeed pitches become so hard to hit? Please don't ask Hawk this. He will go on forever about how the best pitch in baseball is well located fastball.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:22 PM) FWIW, I'm 99 pct sure that Balfour is a huge HGH guy. Wouldn't doubt it. Never had an ERA below 4.15 and that includes years where he had ERA's of 13 and 7.50 and never struck guys out at the rate he has.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:16 PM) It's something that gets lost in the shuffle, but Konerko has had just an atrocious season. I think everyone realizes this, even though he has gotten it together a tad, but it seemed like he came up in the 1st half with guys on base every time and rarely to never came through.

Another 2 out RBI by Morneau.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:06 PM) There's the HR swing. If we score a run the "conventional" way, I'll be impressed. I hate OC's swing when he tries to pull. So big. He is 100 times better when he tries to go to right or up the middle.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:04 PM) Crap, I have to go. Ewwww, Yoda.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:02 PM) I've never seen one manager dominate another manager as much as this weekend. You say that every weekend that we lose a series. The Ray PLAYERS are easily outplaying our PLAYERS.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 02:01 PM) I love smallball...not. Absolutely shameful managing this weekend. If we hit too many homers and don't try and bunt in some situations, people b****. Than we try and play small ball and the PLAYERS screw up, and it is Ozzie's fault. Gimme a break.

I would of made Juan bunt with 2 strikes. Idiot. Pull back if you can't bunt on a breaking ball.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:54 PM) Oh can the Anderson cocksuckery. It's a tie game and Anderson sucks on offense. It's amazing how people here think he's anything more than a 4th OF. He is a 4th OF, which is why he should be a defensive replacement.

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:51 PM) Our defense is pathetic. No matter what happens this year, KW needs to focus on getting a 2B, 3B and a CF who know who to catch the f***ing ball. We have one but he is a communist.

BA not available? Easily should of been in CF this inning.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 01:27 PM) I have always hated Orlando Cabrera, but I never knew exactly why until he played for my team. I always thought he was overrated but never consistently watched him so had no backing on it. Now I see why I thought that.

Put Lexi at SS and Getz at 2B. What a hack!

Our outfield is the slowest in the league and our SS is overrated.

Here comes a 3 run homer.

Let's give him the RA Dickey treatment.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 24, 2008 -> 12:10 PM) Nope....what a freaking joke. It's amazing.

WTG Rex

Angels up 4-0. Nice defense by Buscher in the 3rd.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Aug 23, 2008 -> 04:06 PM) "Don't just stare at it, eat it!" Best line in movie history. Every time I hear "Sssudio" by Phil Collins, I laugh. "When I see a pretty girl walking down the street I think 2 things. 1 part wants me to be real nice and sweet and treat her right..." "What does the part think?" "What her head would look like on a stick!"

QUOTE (BearSox @ Aug 23, 2008 -> 07:18 PM) Wait, they actually scored that a hit? What the f*** is going on? Yup, I just looked it up. No way was that a hit.

Please no more Thornton being lumped in with Jenks and Carrasco anymore.

It wasn't fair that he got hurt. He was the best athlete I have ever seen.

Who?
