QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:03 PM) Studly enough for them to loan him out twice to 2nd league teams. 28 games at Hull, 1 goal. Deleted your first post huh. Wasn't claiming he was, just wanted to address your made up comment.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 12:54 PM) Ya, his rights are owned by Villareal, awesome. He's played only a handful of games there and hasn't scored goal anywhere outside of the MLS. And again, what does Serbia have to do with anything related to Altidore? 6 games with Villareal and he's scored a goal.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 12:36 PM) Altidore's upside is a Luis Fabiano striker IMO. But that said, he's got a lot of work to do on his overall finishing skills still though. But the potential with his body size and speed is definitely there. I dont know if I'd go that far, but you are one of the more informed posters of international soccer here so it's nice seeing that sentiment coming from a non-American.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 12:37 PM) This is soccer. "Just 20" doesn't apply. He was one of the youngest players in the entire tournament. How the hell doesn't it apply? I mean s***, everybody is going gaga over Alexandre Pato (21) and he wasn't even included in Brazil's team. Pato has had success at Milan already, but Jozy's rights are owned by Villareal. Not exactly a crap club. So it's not just Americans who see something in him. And you still havent addressed the questions of why. That Serbia flame out must really be bothering you still.

QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 11:42 AM) Anyone know the progress of Phegley? If we were to trade Flowers, it be nice to have some other C in the system to look forward to. Miguel Gonzalez. But he's 3 or 4 years away.

QUOTE (juddling @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 08:01 AM) That's nothing like the pitcher who broke his arm throwing a pitch. i'm thinking it was Dave Dravekcy(sp) some years back. i remember seeing the tape and actually being able to hear the arm break....still gives me the willies thinking about it Tony Saunders. Tampa Bay.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 29, 2010 -> 01:00 AM) Don't count on it. Based on what? Kid is just 20, has a great physical make up and has already had success.

De Aza has been ridiculous since returning from the DL. Hell, I wonder if he'd be a better option to DH right now...

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jun 28, 2010 -> 04:59 PM) I don't think there is going to be any room for him once Teahen comes back... Lillibridge is still here remember

I don't know how anyone could honestly say they don't think Brooklyn Decker is attractive.

I'm fine with him being here until Teahen is back, but then he needs to go back down unless he's playing 4 or 5 times a week.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 28, 2010 -> 01:42 PM) Question for some of the states-rights people here: how do you view this issue? Most (all?) states-rights advocates are right-leaning and I would assume support gun ownership rights, but this ruling makes federal law trump state and local law. I'd rather it be a state issue, whatever the resulting decisions would be. There would have to be some level of federal oversight though to accommodate interstate travel and such.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jun 28, 2010 -> 01:47 PM) See, now I know for sure that you don't get what I am saying and are just thinking im hating on them.. Its not about "I Told You So", im a Sox fan im not sitting here waiting for them to lose so I can rub it in everyones face.. the only thing that I have been saying is I want to see them put together wins against AL teams.. we were almost 10 games under before we got to play the NL, and yes the team got VERY hot.. I just don't see the need to go all overboard about them right now until I see them start taking care of business where it matters.. I hope they do win 10 of the next 13 and I hope they do beat Minnesota, Detroit, Boston, and New York.. I love you continue to completely ignore the fact that the Braves have been one of the hottest teams in baseball for over a month and we just swept them, but since they do not play in the AL it apparently means nothing.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 05:00 PM) With the wind blowing to left and a lefty pitcher in I wouldn't mind seeing his bat up there even though I know it's not a move any manager would make. Its just so early. You wouldnt regret it if the game was tight late and it would be nice to pinch hit a power bat for Beckham/Pierre/Vizquel but we couldnt because he was no longer available? Its just early to arbitrarily remove someone from the game is what I'm saying. Anything can happen in 5 or 6 innings.

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 04:57 PM) 4th........for Kotsay You (or whoever brought it up initially) advocated putting Viciedo into the lineup at the start of the bottom of the second. Either way, pinch hitting in the 4th is still dumb.

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 04:53 PM) Your starter is Mark Kotsay. You don't pinch hit in the 2nd inning.

Two innings for Gorzelanny, 16 pitches. Maybe we wont burn the bullpen out...

QUOTE (BDavisFutureHOF @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 04:45 PM) Peavy's already at 50 pitches. Damn Yeah, pitching well but this may only be a 6 inning start

QUOTE (Vance Law @ Jun 25, 2010 -> 04:39 PM) 22 min piss? The second inning?

I left to take a piss and I come back and missed our entire inning on offense? haha Wow Zambrano out already

Aramis Ramirez is really hitting .168 in late June???
