I guess Dotel or even Pena aren't good for right now. Ozzie playing his "gut" feeling.

I gotta say.. this might be one of the best game threads I've been apart of. Just some gems for quotes and replies being thrown around here.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:18 AM) 14 K's for us tonight... To be fair.. King Felix was on the mound, (had 9 or 10 I think) not Jakaubauskas or some other scrub for once.

Web Gem.

This Cy Young winner pwns us.

Cy Jakusbauskas in.

KOTSAY! you are ridiculous!

Rios gets robbed.

Jenks 1-2-3?!

Well I love Matt Thornton even more after today.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:42 PM) It was only fitting that they were traded for each other -- the all-stupid-clearance trade.

There's 2 guys who really need more $ on their team.. Thornton and Don Cooper. Beckham will get his in the future.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:37 PM) Carlos Lee against the Expos about 6 years back. Now there's another guy whose baseball I.Q. was bad.

If Bobby Cox was managing the sox, Pods would be pulled and we'd be seeing a Quentin/Rios/Dye OF right now.

I don't think I've ever seen a guy get picked off 3RD BASE before, and if I did.. must have been a long time ago. Pods might be the first player in a long time to get picked off 1B, 2B, and 3B in a season. He's had a very good year, but it sucks when your baseball I.Q. is the size of a raisin.

Pods has the worst baseball I.Q. on the sox, far, far worse than Alexeis and people want this guy back.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:29 PM) We have a guy who hits doubles, makes contact at high rate and drives in runs. So what do we do. Have him bunt because its 1950 and we are in the NL. Your awesome BTW.

Congrats on your first hit in a sox uni Rios.

f*** you Ozzie.

Nice catch Q. As previously stated I like Thornton's chances. Seems like he's automatic in my eyes.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:17 PM) Maybe in the 10th, but I like Thornton's chances. This.

This game was what it should have been though.. Great pitcher's duel put on by Buehrle and King Felix.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:11 PM) GREG WALKER: (v.) To appear befuddled against pedestrian pitchers, particularly those making their initial appearances in major league baseball. Syn.: Dead-pull approach. :notworthy :lolhitting

Thank you Beltre.

Ok King Felix is gone sox hitters. Let's not Greg Walker this inning.
