  2. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 21, 2012 -> 12:20 AM) Watched the entire game tonight and never thought once that the Clippers were going to actually win, even when they went up 5 late in the 4th. Their offensive structure is very stagnant. Absolutely no creative plays (other than lob city) or flow in their game. Lots of dribbling and no execution (it's seriously like watching their small guards look like Kirk Hinrich). Great building blocks for the future, but they better hope Blake finds a better box game.. and soon. Their final two plays describes VDN to a tee.
  3. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 20, 2012 -> 11:46 PM) Yeah, but I'm not sure how they'll score on Quick in the Finals without Bosh in front of the net. LMAO.
  4. QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ May 19, 2012 -> 11:07 PM) Daniel Webb is just god awful. A shame too. Tremendous arm, just can't pitch with it.
  5. QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ May 19, 2012 -> 07:30 PM) Just one of his b****es :headbang
  6. Thats just bad luck for Tank. Though I'm sure he'll take the Wrigley homerun in the winds anytime.
  7. QUOTE (Jake @ May 19, 2012 -> 07:19 PM) Some guys get in such an aggressive state of mind in 2-0, 3-1 counts that they fail to make solid pitch recognition We watched Juan Uribe be a master of this for years with us.
  8. QUOTE (oldsox @ May 19, 2012 -> 07:14 PM) That's the injury both Todd Helton and Rafael Furcal had in 2008. Both had surgery. Almost a killer injury for a 3B.
  9. Castro helped out Danks big time there. Gonna be a hell of a hitter, but showed his youth there.
  10. That is a nice shiner right there.
  11. QUOTE (Marty34 @ May 19, 2012 -> 07:04 PM) I'd love nothing more than to be proven wrong on Viciedo. It's May now.. so expect the Cuban to keep it going. Alexei too.
  12. QUOTE (BFirebird @ May 19, 2012 -> 06:56 PM) DAYAN! That was a Wrigley homer right there. Without a doubt. Still a strong kid though.
  13. My god I didn't realize how pathetic the Cubs lineup is.
  14. Nice article by Haugh a couple days ago on Kane. Actually dug up his own research on that incident. Some bits.. Well look at that. Deadspin not a believable site for s***. What a surprise.
  15. QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ May 18, 2012 -> 05:47 AM) And he doesn't turn 20 for another month. As you said he doesn't have a lot of power, but he's got plenty of time to develop some. And it doesn't have to be drastic showing. He is probably playing 2B in his future, a position where you can get away with little power. And Texas is showing once again they have great scouting.
  16. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 17, 2012 -> 08:28 AM) If we or any other team had signed him, it'd be circus music time. Last year it was the awful Kyle Farnworth. This year it's Rodney. They just find badness and make it somehow good. Jim Hickey is a terrific pitching coach. They still got the Zim master lurking down there too.
  17. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 14, 2012 -> 05:05 PM) He hasn't been as bad as the couple big mistake plays he's made in CF would suggest, he's shown good range out there, and frnakly, he's still effectively a rookie out there, so he does have room to grow into that position. He has played 270 career minor league games at CF (the most out of every other position) and was a -16. (LF +7) He certainly had his drops/misplays back then, but he was much better (range wise) at LF. I liked him alot when he was playing for the Hammerheads. But unless the sox trust Rios at CF again, or if they stopped dicking around with Viciedo's development at a position for 3 years (I was adamant on Tank playing RF for years), he would be much more tolerable. I have no idea what people here were expecting, and admittedly, I haven't watched much sox games this year due to work (so no idea what his UZR looks like this year, or from the eye test so I'm going by what posters like fathom and others say) but if he's still the same guy I saw/remember back in 06-07, he will be serviceable in CF. (but he is a much better LF)
